Too much magnesium

Watch on youtube.com
A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station.

If you are seeing an apparent paradox, that means you are missing something.

Can't see, due to the Great Firewall. But I suspect there is some "fire" involved here.

Yes - a nice fireball but it doesn't look right to me. It kind of looks like the explosion is superimposed onto the video. The gentleman lighting the fuse seems to disappear for an instant. But that's that not enough for me to cry fake. Plus, there's a very sudden clearing of the smoke afterwords.

Ah - his shirt changes between shots. Before the explosion, there's some sort of graphic on the front [edit: actually, it's more than that, the shirt's color is a greenish streaks design plus a graphic]. After the explosion, it's solid black.

Edit: Also the lights suddenly come back on after the explosion.

Like aluminium/aluminum? As far as I know, it's magnesium everywhere English is spoken, and probably a lot of places where it isn't.
