The hype-based scam convention was run by negligent people, who cared more about being literally flashy than the safety/wellbeing of those around them.
A little on the nose, but not a huge surprise.
Move fast and break things! They can always iterate and do another party that doesn’t leave attendees blind!
It’s rough now, but in a few years, they’ll be able to look back and laugh at the time they threw a party and blinded everyone with UV radiation. Growing pains!
look back
I don’t think they can look back any more after losing their sight
They can look back with their brown eye.
Did they accidentally buy UVC sterilization tubes instead of the relatively harmless UVA party lights?
That has to be it. They got drawn in by the beautiful shade of blue they make and gave everybody the experience of welding for 12 hours using only safety squints and a t-shirt.
And for everyone that doesn’t know, UVC radiation is the bad kind of radiation (ionizing).
The Bulbs in this picture sure do look like UC-V lights in my opinion.
At least the venue is nice and germ-free now
Those are absolutely UVC sterilizing lamps. Recreational blacklights put off almost no visible light. These are very clearly UVC emitters. I have both kinds here in the lab. Blacklights for fun. UVC in a sealed box for sterilizing equipment… it is DANGEROUS SHIT.
Seems like
So they basically disinfected their eyes with UV? Ouch.
Yeah, at least it wasn’t a COVID superspreader event.
/s
I’ve been to dark places with UV lighting and about 1 in 10 casually dressed people wear something apparently fluorescent so it’s sometimes possible to detect.
Couldn’t have happened to a nicer group of people. ICO for a blind cryptobro token anyone? You get bLoCkChAiN tEcH!
Maybe they were actually vampires?
