Could be. In another video they shred old hard drives and they spark as well. -- Failure does not prove something is impossible, failure simply indicates you are not using the right tools... nico(a)nctdevpuntnl (punt=.) --------------------------------------------------------------

More likely an iron alloy with >Lanthanide rare earth content, maybe Lutetium. I have read that "flints" in lighters and torch ignitors are made of ferrocerium, an iron-cerium alloy. Maybe those rcklike metal chunks are a titanium alloy. I have heard that titanium was used in many popular smaller flashbulbs back when cameras used smaller flashbulbs, flashbars and flashcubes. - Don Klipstein (don(a)misty.com)
