Talk about blinding!

That would suck.

So. Much.

I don't think they seem to realise making a helicopter hovering over you crash isn't the brightest idea...  :mellow:

Yeah, but he he made it out ok I presume?

Isn't it ironic that a $2 laser pointer could render ineffective a $20million war machine?

I've been lit up by just ONE of those damn things before and it's a nightmare if it catches your eye. Held in a pattern for 10 minutes waiting to get my vision back 100%.

Yeah, kind of like some moron in my neighborhood who killed himself last night...

 

...when at least one of the bullets from his Uzi fired up into the air came back home. :Silly:

 

Some of my friends think I'm being paranoid because I spend the 4th of July in my basement all night!

I am sure those pilots were equipped with high tech helmets with a visor to protect from those lasers. Probably not in any danger at all.

I saw that copter all emblazoned with the lasers, and couldn't tell if it was done on purpose or not.   I knew about the danger to pilots, but I thought there was no way it was not intentional, it looked like it was planned.   I stand corrected, there are a lot of fools out there.

In the top most picture that Ro posted no one in the crowd noticed the second helicopter off in the distance that was probably lighting them up with their targeting laser!

 

@Fr. Bill. A perfect example of 'friendly fire' turning out for the better. At least no innocent person was harmed.

 

I shot an arrow into the air, where in came down I know not, . . . . . . . . but I do suddenly have a splitting headache.
