Ships With Frickin' Laser Beams

Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich is adding to his nautical line with his 550 foot yacht, Eclipse. It’s $1.2 billion and has “two helipads, two swimming pools and six-foot movie screens in all guest cabins, to a mini-submarine and missile-proof windows to combat piracy.” Not only does it come with those awesome features that even some navies don’t have around the world. It’s coming with an anti paparazzi “shield”. “Lasers sweep the surroundings and when they detect a CCD, they fire a bolt of light right at the camera to obliterate any photograph.” Sounds very Goldfingery of Mr. Abramovich and I like it.
