Mythbusters vs. mad scientist teenager (or Death ray that probably will kill you)

seeing as how my last post was about a James Bond-esque device, i thought i would bring up another one on here. Some teenager in the united states has created a death ray: http://www.smh.com.au/technology/sci-tech/teens-solar-death-ray-can-melt-concrete-20110204-1afxk.html based on the video, it seems real, but a little voice at the back of my head is telling me its special effects, but you never know. I remember on the tv show mythbusters, they tried to build one of these things 3 times, hell the 3rd time barack obama was the one asking them to do it, and yet these 2 guys with near-limitless resources, years of experience, and tons of manpower get beaten by some teenager. Don't worry about this kid trying to enslave the earth with this thing though, it was destroyed in a fire, plus it would never work at night (and he has to go to sleep eventually), so the earth is for now safe.
