Stuck on death row (a fate worse than death?)

I would be most grateful for a hint as to how to get out of level 3 (death 
row)

I have made it to the room with the hologram of the green head, and discovered 
how to rotate the inner shell of the room to reveal the 2 small rooms with 
switches.  I have found the red door with 4-5 lasers behind it, but I can't 
turn them off.  I presume that it involves the 2 switches somehow, but nothing 
seems to work.  Is there a time limit involved, like in some Doom secrets ?

Has anyone been able to jump onto the platform behind the lasers from outside 
the room ?

Thanks

Shane

I've found pipe bombs/RPG's tend to turn a few things off :-)

You need a pipe bomb to throw through the beams while the door is
open.. do this and move back quick and it'll detonate the tripbombs..

try throwing a pipebomb at the lasers....it will generally turn them
off
