Really wanted to see video of this when I first saw the article this morning. Still disappointed there isn't any.

It's probably very disappointing. Rather than cool Star Wars blasting, it probably starts with smoke and ends with fire. No sound effects.
Right, but it would still be cool to see the amount of time it would take and the heat required to penetrate all that metal. You can see effects of the heat having scalded the hood and peeled back the paint.
And, I guess one could always add one's own sound effects... (Star Trek phaser)
Pew, pew...pew,pew,pew.
Like that?
All lasers make that sound in my head.
IT was a video, it happens so fast that it looks like a still.
That looks like fun.
For those looking for video, this is a less powerful laser from a few years ago, but it gives you some idea of how things work:

Wasn't this from a movie called "Real Genius" with Val Kilmer back in the 80's? ;-)
