    @@yocheeseifyI'm a sailor, so I've been through DC classes where we learn about fires. When magnesium burns, it creates magnesium oxide, as they said in the video. What they didn't say is that when the magnesium oxide comes in contact with water vapor, it reacts, creating magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Burning magnesium has a very violent reaction with hydrogen gas, which creates more heat and light. It's the reason we just have to jettison (throw overboard) burning aircraft and other class D (metal) fires. Also, fun fact, magnesium doesn't require outside oxygen to burn, so those jettisoned aircraft can potentially burn under the water for years

    If you’ve ever seen a rocket explode, that’s liquid oxygen. Oxygen is why magnesium can’t be put out with water, and why it will even get brighter when sprayed. The oxygen in the water is also being burned.

    @@caseysellers214 The magnesium fire is hot enough to separate the molecules in water, so from what I can see the oxygen in the water keeps it burning, but the surrounding water in the ocean is enough to keep the hydrogen from exploding and it merely dissapates upwards as hydrogen gas and/or bonds with free oxygen molecules. On land, the water and magnesium tends to just explode violently. (Note: I am not an expert, this is just how I understand it works.)

    Many years ago, when I was in a rented house share with another pyromaniac, we acquired a magnesium box. It was great fun breaking bits off and setting it on fire with the blow torch that was set up on the kitchen table. One night, when we got bored with the blow torch, we chucked the remains of the box (a corner) onto the open fire in the living room. Eventually it caught fire, then we decided to bung some ammonium nitrate into the corner of the burning box (we just happened to have a big bag of it in the cupboard for some reason). Nothing happened for about a second, then there was the brightest light I have ever seen that lasted for a very short time and the box was gone. It must have looked spectacular from outside, a shaft of white light heading skywards from the chimney.

    In the U.S. Navy, every time you are assigned to a different ship you go through training on that ship's fire fighting procedures. The basic procedures are common throughout the Navy, but customized to each ship because of differences in carried fuels, different fire fighting equipment, etc. On an aircraft carrier where "metallic fires" are more likely, the training is very simple. "You can't put this type of fire out. The only thing you can do is get it off the decks as quickly and safely as possible and into the sea. It will continue to burn even submerged, but burning metal does no damage if it's sitting at the bottom of the ocean".

I work at a mag manufacturing plant where we cast, mill roll, and thermal anneal over 300k lbs of mag plate a month and I've seen some of the craziest mag fires only get worse because some new guy didn't know what he was doing. The plate is nearly inflammable in normal conditions but the mag chips are well...you demonstrated that nicely here.

    How to tell the difference from magnesium, vs aluminum: Pour just a tiny bit of apple cider vinegar (or just regular vinegar) on either the aluminum or magnesium in question. Wait 15-30 seconds. If nothing special happened, then you most likely encountered an aluminum metal or something other than magnesium. But if it starts to fizz like crazy and bubble on the surface of that material, like it's boiling, it is most likely magnesium metal. And aluminum is NOT pyrophoric (means it's able to catch on fire easily), but magnesium IS pyrophoric.

There are chemicals that you can spray into the magnesium fire which will melt and coat the stuff. Ir was very expensive and I doubt any public FD would have any large stock
