It burns at 3000 degrees, please be careful with it. My dad just mentioned something about someone being really badly burnt by it recently.

As for Feek using it, I'd normally say no and to leave it to people who know what they're doing. It's incredibly volatile and will give you no second chances if you mess around; it'll burn you to cinders. There are countless incidents of people underestimating how powerful the reaction can be and have received major burns from it.
However, in this case I'm aware that Feek owns dangerous items already and is obviously very responsible, careful and respectful of things that can easily be fatal in ignorant hands. So I voted yes, go ahead and have a go but take every precaution necessary and leave nothing to chance.

Well I thought that was obvious, it plainly had nothing to do with two massive planes crashing into them.

I am trying to find a video of a compound myself and a friend made long ago which literally turned night into day. No matter what your opinion of the brightness of magnesium or thermite burning, this was quite another level.

I cannae remember what exactly was involved, but there was potassium permanganate in there somewhere...
