stupidly enough; it was so powerful it got sucked onto the screen, scratched it heavily and then it sucked up my start and select buttons off the plastic strip of buttons

i shouldn't laugh but i did. anyways, now you know. I did something similar last night.

for a laugh i decided to see just how powerful the flash on my new camera was. When i was buying it all the reviews said it had one of the most powerful flashes in its price bracket (Sony CyberShot H10). So i set the flash to max and put it up against my eye and fired. the words 'holy fudgeing spoon' were uttered a few times whilst i struggled to regain vision in my right eye. after about 10 minutes i could begin to see things again but everything was tinted dark reddish-brown and it stayed that way for about  an hour. This morning its almost gone.

Lesson learned.
