I watched Amy Nay on the channel two news and she said all proud, that she could not get glasses so she stacked up three pair of sunglasses and was able to see it. So much for our hard work getting people not to look without proper protection.

With a few posts talking about exaggerated claims of the dangers of solar observing during an eclipse.
Did anyone try to glimpse the eclipse without eye protection? After all, it was said to can look for 40 seconds without permanent eye damage.
