The MythBusters guys set off 1000 pounds of thermite to try to burn a car in half. To see how that turned out, see my video:

That's why we should use uranium.It's much safer

Hehe.
I once held a magnesium strip (With thoose twerzer things, of course) (About as long as my wrist to me middle finger (7 - 10 cm)) to a bunsen burner burning blue. Oh man, it lit up like the fourth of july. Except i didnt get burned much...

Mercedes used it to mKe their seats lol

was at a salvage yard-had an old magnesium engine block, we broke off a piece, and hit it with an acetelene torch, and dropped it in a radiator valve. probably the coolest thing a VW and a volvo could ever do.

In school lab I was having some fun with magnesium and then I droped pure magenisum powder 20 cm over bunse burner... my righ sleeve got burned, I lost all hair on lower parts of my hand and got burned. So the lesson of this is: Never ever under any cirmumstance drop pure magnesium powder over bunsen burner!!!
