Meteor Injures 500 People in Russia

Quote:A meteor crashing in Russia's Ural mountains has injured at least 500 people, as the shockwave blew out windows and rocked buildings.

Most of those hurt suffered minor cuts and bruises but some received head injuries, Russian officials report.

Nope, but some of these videos of it are awesome!

I figured it might be North Korea's first attack aimed at the US. They pointed the missile the wrong way..

It just came to my mind, didnt something like this happen in Mexico 20 years ago?

I just read that this was so well recorded because many russians keep video cameras in their cars - for 2 reasons, to prove inocents in case of an accident and in case they encounter a corrupt policeman.

No idea I was too young perhaps not even born at the time Tongue

I was wondering why the hell everyone had camera's. I love how the traffic barely even slows down while a huge ball of fire is speeding to the ground.

Fireballs are happening every day, but is this a unique incident ?
Mostly I don't hear about casualties.

This one injured over 500 people, smashed a ton of windows and brought down a couple of buildings. (I've been watching some videos of the damage) The fact that so many people recorded it is pretty special.
