This DIY Laser Death Ray Is Just Mad, Mad, Mad!

October 3rd, 2010 link to (permalink)

14 years ago
So maybe calling it a death ray is a bit of an exaggeration, but given the fact it can slice through several types of material and reduce crawling insects to a burnt crisp does certify it a low-yield death ray at best.

In the third part of the test I’m shooting an object from a pretty close distance (15 cm). Here you can really see a big difference between the different cameras and if you compare the 3G with the iPhone 4 side by side you can see that they are miles apart.

There’s no doubt that the iPhone 4 has a much better camera than the iPhone 3G and the iPhone 3Gs, and the new HDR functionality makes it even easier to get good results during hard lighting conditions.

Darn right it is. As shot glasses go, these babies from MadeBYAmmo are built to withstand everything from bar room brawls to the constant slamming inflicted on shot glasses. (Have you ever wondered why people always slam down their shot glasses in the movies?)
