If a high power magnet will not even get them out, then thats not..."normal" i guess you would say.

Large magnet, rotate the magnet as you lift it kind of like you're making fire. If they still won't come out you need to soak the head in parts cleaner to loosen the burnt oil holding them in place.

A good cleaning probably wouldn't hurt if you have having parts stick like that.
