Goofs(at around 1h 8 mins) Apart from the fact that the existence of the zero-gravity 'magnetic field' which Sean reaches is implausible, everything seems to float around there, including the rocks and even Sean's Swiss Army knife. Although, Sean doesn't and is still subject to gravity and in danger of falling into the abyss.
His head torch also drops into the chasm while he is clinging to the overturning floating rock. However; the pocket knife is metal, and is it plausible then that to an extent that the rocks are too (as they are 'magnetic', and therefore likely metallic).
Sean and his head torch are not, therefore would not be able to float as they are not a part of the floating magnetic field.

Subterranean fiction is a subgenre of adventure fiction, science fiction, or fantasy which focuses on fictional underground settings, sometimes at the center of the Earth or otherwise deep below the surface. The genre is based on, and has in turn influenced, the Hollow Earth theory.The earliest works in the genre were Enlightenment-era philosophical or allegorical works, in which the underground setting was often largely incidental. In the late 19th century, however, more pseudoscientific or proto-science-fictional motifs gained prevalence. Common themes have included a depiction of the underground world as more primitive than the surface, either culturally, technologically or biologically, or in some combination thereof. The former cases usually see the setting used as a venue for sword-and-sorcery fiction, while the latter often features cryptids or creatures extinct on the surface, such as dinosaurs or archaic humans. A less frequent theme has the underground world much more technologically advanced than the surface one, typically either as the refugium of a lost civilization, or (more rarely) as a secret base for space aliens.
