There is alot of gimmicks that are reported as scientifically proven. But I wouldn't want to test the validity of it and get my a## bit off.:D
 
I hope this doesn't become common. The green lasers are pretty powerful. It won't be doing the shark any good. A few years ago I was temporarily blinded by malicious use of a common red laser pointer. You do NOT want to experience that.

I was exposed only as long as it took me to violently recoil. Here's how it played out.

  1. flash of blinding red light obliterating all sight
  2. complete and total loss of vision in right eye
  3. intense headache lasting 2-3 hours
  4. gradual return of vision in right eye over about 45 minutes
  5. residual vision issues for about 3 days

Be nice to sharks. :no
