More shocking was the fact that LOBO left the thing operating throughout and after it had swept through the screaming guests on the balcony.
No one thought to use the e-stop...
It was horrible to watch and very disappointing from ILDA’s most decorated member.

sounds like the didn't read their own website:
Only especially educated persons should operate such systems. Buyers reveiceive a free laser safety training including the certification according to BGVB 2 (VGB93). Special safety measures have to be taken by qualified staff to avoid risk of eye damage, skin damage or fire. The beam must not be directed into the audience or into populated areas. To avoid such problems, LOBO developed in addition to the integrated safety features also an adjustable mechanical beam block, switching off the moving base and the lasers in case of mechanical contact.
It is highly recommended not to use long-range laser display beam heads indoors. When beams enter aispace, in most countries special permissions by aviation safety authorities are required. In many cases authorities have to issue so-called NOTAMs (Notice to Airmen).
suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.
