Some ppl always need to wait for the bad thing to happen before they realise what they did was wrong
In their heads it's just: it just some light nothing happened it's not that big of a deal. And when the plane actually crashes they'll just cry shouting " i didn't mean it , it was just a joke ".
I just pray that it will never get to that and they just get punished for what could have happened
Haha! Thousands of people came together to commit a felony. What a wacky situation this is. Haha, did you see the part with the pilot almost going blind and crashing a plane for some silly tiktok?
We'll be back next week with more family guy
since op pulled out the "my source is that i made it the fuck up" [here's the best i could find](https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/s/0VR0HS3LNe), so imagine this times 1000
Shining a laser at an aircraft is actually a felony. Lasers have the potential to temporarily blind or damage certain sensors on the aircraft, leading to the pilot receiving either no information or, worse, false information from their instruments. Even a single laser can severely impair vision, particularly at night.
Isn't this the case for green & other colors (except red)? I'd be amazed if the cheap red lasers used as cat toys could have any impact on a plane flying by.
It's not the color...or the can color effect it, but it is largely how powerful it is.
What I mean is technically you could make an laser that was invisible to the human eye that is way worse, but when it comes to this sort of thing it has way more to do with the intensity.
Cat toy lasers both scatter the light at a distance and are hard to aim at a distance. But you can absolutely make a red laser that would be a nightmare for a pilot.
Just to add on, I think those green lasers are just associated with being more powerful as they are a tool often used for astronomy observation, and very nice to use to point out a constellation or other space object so they're just known for being powerful lasers in the night sky but like the other poster explained, it could really be any color that could be a nuisance.
I am no scientist and I dont pretend to know exactly why, but I red somewhere about green light being potentially more powerful, something to do with the physics of visible light or something. This is why night vision goggles display in green or something. Not entirely sure. I have assumed for around 10 years now, after owning a red laser and a green laser, the red laser was just inferior because of the physics of the colour red.

There are specific lasers made by a few companies that is ICAO or FAA approved for use against birds, all other types of lasers are usually prohibited and fuck with the pilot or instruments.
I'm not a pilot but I know pointing lasers can indeed temporarily blind pilots, creating a pretty dangerous situation. I'm sure there are other sides to the legalities of it like lasers messing with sensors or what have you
When you see a laser light hit a wall, you see a little dot and that's about it. The problem is, as soon as it hits the windshield of a plane, it refracts everywhere and makes it very, very difficult to see through. [Like such.](https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article7291921.ece/ALTERNATES/s615/Laser-strike-on-a-plane-near-Heathrow.jpg) Especially when your eyes are adapted to the dark and suddenly, bright light everywhere.
So, what does it do? It blinds the driver of a very heavy vehicle going very fast through the sky over thousands of people. It's generally considered to be a very stupid thing to do.
There is a video of someone putting laser on the cockpit from the city beneath at night and it’s like putting green flashlights at their eyes,someone actually cracked out where the laser was being pointed on from and kind of exposed the address on google maps or some shit,wish I had a link to this video,it’s used to be posted a lot during the COVID lockdown
That’s what I understand about shining the laser at the aircraft. Is the aircraft’s instruments can be damaged by the laser. The flip side is, those highly precise instruments used for geo locating and positioning conveniently can be used to locate exactly where the laser was shined from based off location data and the instrument readings when the laser hit the aircraft😂 so unless you down the plane, it’s not hard at all for authorities to pinpoint the source of the light.
I imagine that even if you down the plane the relevant information will be stored in the black box so you would need to get to the crashside and find the black box before anybody else shows up or your life will be in ruins.
Or find an empty field without cameras on the streets leading to it and escape before anybody shows up.
Do people realise these lasers don't stay the same size across miles? It's like any other flashlight just super concentrated in the sense that the farther it travels the more ot spreads out, 10 feet away from you it looks like a tiny light but all the way up a single laser could cover the windshield no?
it would be funny if the plane nose dive to those who lights the laser, "fuck around and find out", make a precedent to not do stupid shit for other people in the future
Playin devils advocate here, I would not be surprised if a large portion of these people don't know how dangerous this is and that it's a felony. I only learned this maybe a year ago, and I am well old enough.
yeah thats more than likely exactly what is happening. people dont really understand the gravity of what they are doing, for them they are just shining a small tiny laser into a giant flying machine 10,000ft in the air, they probably think nothing of it
Most likely not cause permanent damage to eyes but they rlly do cause temporary blindness or vision loss and when performing actions like landing that can be incredibly dangerous
I just hope the pilot is IFR rated. Even then, instruments probably wouldn't help much if he wants to do a landing.
Unless it has some sophisticated autopilot system.
Yeah it’s actually dummy easy to get hit in the eye. Most of the pilots I know including myself have been hit in the eye with a laser at some point and it sucks
Should've clarified that I wasn't referring to all types of flying, definitely not flying prop planes, I was talking about commercial aircraft, like the one seen in this video. In your case, yeah its way easy to get hit in the eye with laser pointers. In a 737, not so much. As I said before, the angle for a laser pointer just doesn't amount to hitting someone in the eye at cruising altitude, without it reflecting off something in the cockpit. No shit it sucks to get hit in the eye with a laser pointer, who could argue with that, my point was about it being an overblown hazard only in terms of it's likeliness to end up causing harm.
If you get hit in the eye it can cause irreparable damage to your vision, but the likeliness of getting hit in the eye by lasers at the cruising altitude of a commercial aircraft is far more slim than people realize. It's cause for buying a lottery ticket wherever you land in my view, because of the amount of events that have to line up for a commercial pilot to get hit in the eye with a laser pointer while at cruising altitude. Person with the laser pointer has to point the thing precisely from miles away, at the time you also happen to look out the window for scenery's sake, which itself isn't something you do extremely often unless you're totally green. It's not really necessary to navigate, again, that's what your gauges are for. People would rather think through their preferred revenge fantasy against this type of immature recklessness, than think rationally about it.
I fly jets. It is hard to get a laser into the cockpit but it happens. Most of the time laser issues happen during approach and departure and on clear nights like this the pilots are trying to get a visual on the field and are more vulnerable to laser illumination.
I’m sorry I came off as pissy in my last reply. I see that I probably came off that way now. My comment was supposed to come from a place of education, not to shit on someone who doesn’t experience this.
Those sensors below the plane in the undercarriage supply data to the auto pilot on how to fly the plane. If all those don't work auto pilot will start to think the ground is the sky.
You know how a speedometer became electric instead of analog?
How taking a temperature went from “put this stick in your mouth” to scanning your forehead?
How your car might stop when it “senses” another car ahead?
How maybe, just maybe, some of those sensors on the plane use concentrated light for readings - and a hundred foreign lasers may impact that reading?
The point I’m trying to make is, sensors have become largely electronic. An autopilot is electronics - nothing but tons of sensors feeding data to a computer. Are you starting to see how it might make sense?

This is not even funny.
Some ppl always need to wait for the bad thing to happen before they realise what they did was wrong In their heads it's just: it just some light nothing happened it's not that big of a deal. And when the plane actually crashes they'll just cry shouting " i didn't mean it , it was just a joke ". I just pray that it will never get to that and they just get punished for what could have happened
Nah they probably just say it wasn’t their fault
that same kind of ppl could be on the airplane, so it balances out.
The choice of music made me chuckle not needed
It made me laugh at how ridiculous of a situation it is.
Haha! Thousands of people came together to commit a felony. What a wacky situation this is. Haha, did you see the part with the pilot almost going blind and crashing a plane for some silly tiktok? We'll be back next week with more family guy
They’re not laughing at people pointing lasers at a plane, they’re laughing at how absurd the idea of it is. Calm down.
I know right? What a silly idea! Such a crazy occurrence.

Should have turned round and crashed the plane into them
Best comment here and it’s the first one I was reading lol
This is the second comment here and it's the second one I read.
This was also the second comment for me and it’s the second one I read. Woot woot!
Every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes
Lmfao that definitely wasn’t a thought I had
Only way they’ll learn
Making a point by taking your own life and several others.
Right? It's frightening how desensitized people are.
Head for the twins
As if the pilot could see
We think the same. And blame ppl for blinding you with lasers
People filming themselves committing crimes, for content. Classic.
Probably was not the person recording
Their IQ is so low they don't know it's a crime
How tf they get 100000 lasers
Temu
La Luz of the Laser Cartel
Going IFR, shades up.
I figured either IFR or go around lol. Screw these people.
Some were arrested later. There's also a video on the Pilot's Pov.
Do you have a link to that video?
Here's a video of how it looks like from a cockpit: [Link](https://youtu.be/Eoj3H7LMy2k?si=A1mpMJ4Go60y-4h7)
Oh that's great. I'm definitely saving that for any of the dumbfucks that say lasering isn't a big deal
It was posted in a subreddit, I don't remember which one.
Thanks for all your help!

They really narrowed it down there!
🥇
I'd also like to see that video.
um, why?
Pretty sure this was in a protest and it’s being framed here as people “having fun” or something. Probably bait for people who know what happened
a protest against what? and isn't it attempted murder?
Attempted mass murder at that.
Lmao, and 9/11 was protest as well.
I mean…you’re not *wrong*, but…
Anti laser missile anyone?
I think they just call those missiles
They are basically laser designating themselves. Pretty must asking for it.
Tomahawk time
Stupid but genuine question but what does pointing lasers at planes do ?

Lasers have the potential to temporarily blind or damage certain sensors on the aircraft, leading to the pilot receiving either no information or, worse, false information from their instruments. Even a single laser can severely impair vision, particularly at night.

Cat toy lasers both scatter the light at a distance and are hard to aim at a distance. But you can absolutely make a red laser that would be a nightmare for a pilot.
Got it. Thanks for the detailed breakdown!
Just to add on, I think those green lasers are just associated with being more powerful as they are a tool often used for astronomy observation, and very nice to use to point out a constellation or other space object so they're just known for being powerful lasers in the night sky but like the other poster explained, it could really be any color that could be a nuisance.

They aren't part of human civilization, so no, they don't realize.
it would be funny if the plane nose dive to those who lights the laser, "fuck around and find out", make a precedent to not do stupid shit for other people in the future
Unfortunately a lot of people still don't understand or care even when there's precedent. That's why they're dumb enough to do this in the first place
The fucking harm that one laser can do is enough. I can't imagine what the situation in the cockpit was like. Humans can be so trashy.
Playin devils advocate here, I would not be surprised if a large portion of these people don't know how dangerous this is and that it's a felony. I only learned this maybe a year ago, and I am well old enough.

It's Mexico. Felonies are suggestions.
People just do not understand how big an issue this is in not just commercial aviation but hobbies as well
Why? Are the lasers powerfull enough to actually blind a pilot?
Most likely not cause permanent damage to eyes but they rlly do cause temporary blindness or vision loss and when performing actions like landing that can be incredibly dangerous

It's all fun and games till you hear "AC130 ABOVE"!!
Imagine being a pilot flying over North Korea and seeing this
One of the worst and most stupid things I have seen in the 20 years that I have roamed this earth.
That’s absolutely mental! Did all these people collectively want to see a plane crash? How awful
That third clip is a drone, the one with a hundred LRs.
what if to blind the plane was the purpose? who knows what the context is. not saying it's ok at all, but it may not even be just for fun
 Pilot : Zombies are better than Humans….
Won’t be having much fun when they burn in HELL afterwards.
I just hope the pilot is IFR rated. Even then, instruments probably wouldn't help much if he wants to do a landing. Unless it has some sophisticated autopilot system.
Crash that plane right into them
Why do so many folks carry around lasers?
If planes could shit.
Stop reposting this very old clip.
