I think it goes without saying that this was probably not the smartest thing to do, and shining a laser right by your friends eye and telling him to turn around is not safe.

Wow! Nice. How does that work actually? Do you know how powerful is the green laser pointer that they use?

That's pretty amazing.

Looks like a powerful projector syncronized with some sort of optical recognition thingy that picks up the laser point and creates an image based on where the point has been.
