This is not about repair, but I thought someone on here might know.
Those little laser pointers that kids play with. What happens if you
shine them directly into your skin, such as a hand. Is that
dangerous? I know they use lasers for some types of plastic surgery
and I believe even to destroy cysts and stuff. I am sure those are
more powerful, but I still wonder about these pointers. One of the
kids keeps doing it, and said it makes the spot warm on their skin.
So I took the thing away from them. As a test, I pointed the thing at
a spot on my hand, and they are correct, it does make the spot warm.
That makes me more concerned about it.

PS. If my hand falls off, I will be sure to tell everyone. The things
parents have to do for their kids lol.

A flashlight will make a spot warm on your skin, laser pointers are no more
dangerous than a bright flashlight.
