It looks a little more dramatic because the image is thermal...the laser illuminator/designator would not normally be visible to the naked eye, nor would the IR strobes on the crunchies helmets.

The "IR marker" and strobes are just outside of of the visible spectrum but are pretty close. The rest of the image is in the visible light spectrum. The voice in the beginning of the clip mistakenly calls a laser an "IR spotlight".
