Goldfinger displayed a large and strange looking device attached to a mechanical arm, it was in fact a very powerful laser-emitting device. The device was switched on and moved slowly higher up the bench to a near castration for Bond, however after mentioning some information to Goldfinger, the laser was switched off and Bond tranquillised. Later in the mission, Goldfinger Korean soldiers had the laser rigged up in a red cross truck, the laser emerged from the roof, and cut thought the solid steel doors of Fort Knox.
