So I was playing Point Blank with a friend the other night, and when I was putting the guns away in the morning I discovered my dumb ass managed to lose the composite video pin in the plug. How the fuck do I get this thing out?

Try using a drill bit set designed for removing broken screws. With the TV unplugged, of course.

Is there any way I can get it out without destroying the pin (and probably also my hands?)

Alternately, carefully solder the metal pin to a longer piece of metal and then use it to pull the pin out.

Take a Q-tip and pull the cotton off and super glue it to the pin. Your dumbass would probably end up just gluing the whole thing in, though.

Put your mouth over it and suck real hard.

Unplug TV. VERY CAREFULLY, take a tiny magnet to the pin. Don't get the magnet near any other part of the TV. Use a very small and weak magnet. With any luck, you can pull the pin without fucking up your screen.

take the tv back off and push the broken pin out of the port, if you're not mentally and physically disabled.

Find a screw that is slightly larger than the pin, and see if you can slowly thread it onto the pin as it is. You may be able to get some "grab" onto the edges and slowly wiggle it out.

Heat up a small needle or nail, then press it into the cheap plastic center. It will melt in and then cool.

Sorry OP. You're fucked and your dad is going to be pissed. The best way to do it is to open the TV and push the pin in/out. But as has already been pointed out you're so retarded you'll probably electrocute yourself and burn the house down. You could try attaching something with superglue but you'd also attach your fingers and attach the stuck part to the socket. I'd like to think all the other answers are trolls but unfortunately I think it's mostly underage tards.

doesn't look like there is enough space to get a grip with one. The clearance of that pin is maybe 1-2mm from my rough estimation of the image.

BNC connectors are held in with a locking mechanism as opposed to just friction. I'm not saying someone still couldn't manage to break something, but it's a much better system.

Drill a very small tech screw into the pin. The head of the screw will give you something to grab on to.

Pins break off while the plug is still inserted so the locking mechanism doesn't really make any difference. I know from personal experience with cheap BNC to Phono adapters after my cat knocked my 20M2MDU backwards off the bench I was testing it on.

You need a paper clip, pliers, and a lighter. Hold the paper clip with the pliers, hold the tip of the paper clip under the flame of the lighter, press into the pin, let it sit for like thirty seconds, and yeet that nigga out of there. That's how I do it.

The atoms are aligned rigidly within the material. The electrons orbit the center of the atoms and cause neighboring electrons to rotate in a similar direction. All neighboring electrons rotating in a similar direction creates a net frictional affect which creates attraction to other materials with rigidly aligned atoms.
The rotation also creates a flow effect which operations in a direction as if about a doughnut or torus. Flow goes through the material in one direction and outward in the other direction, which gives the appearance of poles. One direction is the inner net rotational flow, and the other direction is the outer net rotational flow.
This is also why there's a maximum distance for magnetic attraction/repulsion. The further you get away from the magnets the further you get away from rigidly aligned atoms which can have a cumulative frictional force.
You can't see electrons though, so the effect appears invisible.

No troll. That's precisely how they work.
Friction is one of the most common and powerful forces in the universe, especially since it's multiplicative.
You can absolutely tell it is friction in the electro-magnetic phenomenon any time you create a short circuit--the circuit immediately heats up. It isn't magic, friction heats things up, and that's how these phenomena operate in a simple, mechanical way.
