On the subject of skin burns, at work I was showing a friend a lil 30mw pointer. Explaining the dangers etc... told him it can only burn / heat black things so the main danger is eyes and reflections into eyes. He held up his arm and said "yeah, but I AM black". Had a doh moment, had never thought about it. Wonder what the difference in skin burn-ability is.

I can say with some certainty that darker skin will burn easier than pale skin.
Also if you have tribal black inked tattoos, that also burns like a mother.

For the video, wow that is brilliant. The identification could help a lot of people. As for the bug-burning, anyone try taking out a stinkbug(perhaps that was out of reach)?
