Meh, the thermite torch is a flubbed detail. But you can still make a sort of thermal lance with thermite. Which would get the job done, destroying itself in the process. Maybe Mythbusters will do a comeback and hit this one up lol see how quick it burns itself out before the workpiece. I suspect an armored car is gonna outlast it. A panel van probably not.

Magnesium only works as an igniter for thermite. Thermite itself is made up of a homogeneous mixture of aluminum and iron oxide powder. It's a highly exeothermic reaction and it takes quite a bit of heat to initiate. The magnesium's only purpose is to supply the heat needed to start the reaction. The Fe2O3 supplies oxygen to the burning aluminum and the mixture turns molten in the process. Had that been true thermite, the end of that pipe would have turned into molten globs on the ground.

Magnesium bike frames aren’t standard for making bicycles, but some expensive racing bikes did have frames made from magnesium because the metal was light...so ideal for racing. Magnesium bike frames also did exist in the 1980s so it’s feasible. Most bikes are made from aluminum though because, although heavier, aluminum is stronger, more resistant to corrosion, and vastly cheaper than magnesium.

The reaction is hot enough for some of the steel, magnesium, paint chips from the can,, and interstitial air to vaporize and/or expand thus creating a torch effect. If he added some roadflare to the rest of thermite, it would also improve this effect like a firework fountain.

thats not how thermite works at all. one, those are aluminum probably since its from a bikes frame but even steel would melt, two, the point of the rust is that you use aluminum powder to steal the oxygen from iron oxide, so it has an oxidizer, so it would not just burn at the nozzle. three, thermite results in heat, molten iron,and aluminum oxide, so what in the hell is causing a torch flame?four, the iron should flow back towards his hands at first.and five,that pipe would get rly hot rly fast
