2. Laser Eye Protection

The laser eye protection cancels the wavelength of the laser light to prevent eye damage. During the test those people do not see any laser light because of their eye protection. They had to "review" the "test" information video. Lab coats are worn to prevent "chemical" spills on clothes. There were no chemicals in the lab. I wonder why the researcher just worn normal clothes?? The black paper is used to "absorb" stray light. I wonder why there was so much around the equipment? I did my fair share laser safety when I was a member of the University of California's Laser Fusion Program at the NOVA Laser Facility (1.5 Tara {10^ 15} Watts) at LLNL.

The lab coats are part of their shtick - Dan's is tattered since he gets spattered, blown away and his coat gets a lot of abuse. They began with a 1000 frame per second camera filming in Gav's backyard and have up graded their equipment and locations over the years.

Their slow motion videos have gotten so popular on YouTube that they are being invited to various facilities to show off equipment and experiments that benefit by viewing via slow motion video.
