This is the totally out of character and totally the wrong way to light Thermite. I had a way too short piece of magnesium ribbon and was very lucky that all i got was a slightly burned little finger. Safety is important and i should have lit a long taper and stood well back. If in doubt dont do it at all. I was lucky to get awaywithout getting seriously burned.
