Under the Sea on fire!?

The trees behind the MK occasionally catch fire from fallout. I'm surprised Mermaid and Belle's village haven't had issues before this one.
 
The thermite reaction PRODUCES Aluminim Oxide and Metallic Iron - Metallic aluminum is one of the ingredients.

I suggest you carefully re-read your Chem-101 textbook, Specifically the section on REDOX reactions, Also look up the chemical properties of Mg it does need an oxidizer to 'burn', For that matter steel burns as well - It's called RUSTING, Happens a lot quicker with a Oxy-Acetylene rig, Use the torcH with a neutral flame to heat metal then cut off fuel and the oxidation reaction takes care of the rest.

I never mentioned Al 02 - You did, I mentioned fine Al shavings and Al powder both metallic forms of the element.

Aluminum Fines are mentioned specifically in NFPA publication 484,

You might want to familiarize yourself with the link below as you don't seem to realize the inherent hazards of small bits of metallic aluminum.

I never said that small bits of aluminum weren't dangerous....please point out where I did...thanks in advance. On the contrary, I said it can be very flammable, or even explosive. ANYTHING that is flammable and has a large surface area to volume ratio can be explosive...even flour or grain dust. Strips of aluminum, however, are another matter...I really don't fear painted strips of aluminum combusting from fireworks fallout...is that what you meant to say? Sorry if I misunderstood.

Magnesium doesn't contain its own oxidizer (I misstated that part). Take a piece of it and try to extinguish it once it gets burning, however. It can get oxygen from just about anywhere, including water.

I was thinking if something had to burn, there must be a central server or something for FP+...

But the hat works too.
there is no "central server" it is everywhere like a virus.... soon the computers will fight back making wait times unbearable then will come the terminators
we should have destroyed this all before it began.... we now know that Disney management is cyborgs.

although if one dream might come true... and I have wished upon a star... that mortar would destroy the hat and as the dust settled we would once again have a wondrous of the Chinese theater.
