action

In the jungles of Java , Indonesia. There has been a serious mine accident, and the two "whole guys" Ted Barner and Martin Foster, a company employee and an engineer, are supposed to move a large laser cannon from their client, the MIC Group, there in the strictest of secrecy in order to kill the lives of those who have been buried, including Martin's brother Thomas, to save. The laser emitter is to be tested on the basis of real conditions at the scene of the accident, whereas the competition called Protex, who also makes armaments, has something to do with it. The laser cannon would set completely new standards in mining, because its rays can melt any stone in a few seconds.

One of the Protex bosses, Mr. Gull, a rather unscrupulous Texan, has his henchman Jan van Clef chase after the two men so that Ted and Martin do not reach their destination alive or the laser cannon is either destroyed or comes into the possession of Protex . In the days that followed, the two MIC people were ambushed from one ambush to another on their way through rough terrain and the hot jungle: They were fired at, their vehicle got stuck and moreover had to survive an explosion. Finally, the young reporter Judy joins them.
