What Could Be Better Than a Laser? Try a Six-Barrel Laser Gatling Gun

The last time we checked in with Patrick Priebe he'd crafted a replica of the Dead Space plasma cutter using a pair of 1.5-watt blue lasers. This time he's back with a ridiculous spinning gatling gun packing a total of six 1.4-watt blue lasers, and a less intense green laser used for targeting. Watch in awe and horror as a wall of 26 balloons gets wiped out by its intense blue glare.

Want to build your own? The YouTube video's About section puts an abrupt end to that ridiculous idea. "NO PLANS, NO TUTORIALS. NOT for sale, its just a prototype." And that's probably the best safety advice you'll read all day. [YouTube via Gizmag]
