First-ever Meteorite Crash Caught On Camera With Sound In Canada

[jeff of pa]

"No other meteorite fall has been documented like this, complete with sound," says Dr. Chris Herd, a meteorite expert from the University of Alberta. Finding a meteorite anywhere in Canada is something of a rarity. Last July, the first one discovered in Prince Edward Island was extra special, as it is likely the first meteorite impact to ever be recorded with both video and sound! The Weather Network's Kim MacDonald has the story.

That's incredible that they got it all on camera, but then again, there's now more cameras recording anything and everything, and that number is likely to grow exponentially as time progresses.

If a person had been standing there when that thing struck, I'd suggest that any impact above the knee would probably cause life altering damage.

I saw a meteor in on second of November Tahiti IN 2015 I was a hotel pool and the light was so intense was the light shone like the sun through the clouds before I could fully turn around it exploded over horizon and heard the boom. It happens in mere seconds. So its totally awesome to see such a events caught on camera.

Another time in Australia driving around a freeway I was in car with four others seen one tiny intense ball if light came down on the highway ahead of us in distance. did not hear an explosion. So it happens more often than people think. All over the globe. it happens so fast the two front saw it and I in middle seat in the back looking between the two in front seat. maybe 2 seconds. The two other said we was BS.
