defrogNo, really – it’s a shark with a friggin’ laser.
Granted, it’s a low-power clip-on laser. And it was really more of a test for that particular clamp design, as there’s no obvious scientific value in putting a laser on a shark.

Pass me the laser beam,
This is dF

The escapade was sponsored by Wicked Lasers, a consumer-focused laser manufacturer based in Hong Kong that produces some of the most brilliant — and potentially dangerous — handheld lasers in the world.
