When I was in grad school we had a CO2 laser. There was a story passed down from the earlier grad students about the time my advisor got his arm in the beam. Instead of pulling his arm up, so the beam would run perpendicular to his arm, he pulled it back, so the beam went down his arm and across his hand...
Then there was the time when we were trying to get an optical dipole trap using this laser and some in-vacuum zinc selenide lenses. The conversation that day went as follows:
Me: "Um, is that lens supposed to be glowing?"
Other grad student: "It's probably just burning some crap off of it. Turn the laser up."
The 'crap' turned out to be the anti-reflection coating... :psyduck:

Do you have pictures?
All I found were these.

Unfortunately no videos of this happening.
My own personal experience is limited to various electrical components dissembling themselves, releasing their vital smoke or trying to make like a light bulb.

I know, right? And the way Bubbles swishes off so serenely in panel 4 shows that she loves doing it, too.

I know pictures exist of it, but unfortunately I don't know where they are. (This was before I got a 'smart' phone, so those pictures never made it into my current phone.)

That made the whole strip for me. <edit> it's like Bubbles is all "don't believe I'm not aware of that fact. </edit>
It's like all the sass Faye dished out comes back through Bubs.
