The Earth is pockmarked by sites of devastating strikes. Yet whenever someone gets lucky enough with their scientific video equipment, time lapse camera, or even their dashcam, they have a video that people the whole world over will often appreciate.

1. back when you didnt wwear glasses
2. I am from turkey
3. There was also a clip of a sky diver who was amazingly lucky enough to catch a meteor pass him on the way down. The comment was made that it was the first time a meteor was filmed in the atmosphere but they must have been excluding these long distance shots. Maybe you can look that one up for inclusion in a future video?
4. The ones that glow green have Kryptonite. LOL
5. How simon four or five simon, Voice difference face difference only reading class and hair cut the same, Let see the movie
6. I saw the Texas one, I wasn't close enough to hear the sound though. I did hear it faintly though.
7. hi
8. Where can you fine places like number 9 and 8? Is it dangerous to be there?
9. FYI, the smaller nuke dropped on japan was 16 KT, which is tiny. 1000kt = 1mt. The 4000lb meteor would have been x187.5 as powerful as the 'Little Boy' Bomb.
10. THESE ARE PURE WRATHS OF THE ALMIIIGHTYYYYYYY.....IT MEANS WE ARE UPTO NOOO GOOD...!!!!
11. Number three on the list I saw in my back yard i was kinda young so it terrified me but now I think of it as an awesome moment.
12. nr 5 is only pictures
    top 10 * caught on video**
    what a pleb uploader
13. @ 3:32 "...an explosion the size of a sonic boom."
    
    Eh??
14. an explosion the size of a sonic boom???? ummm...how does that work again?
15. why does everybody call them meteor. Its called asteroids
16. If you ever want to remake this video I am happy to consult on it for you.
17. Ouch, so many mistakes! I'm sorry but I really have to thumb this one down, there are just too many errors.
18. Comet Shoemaker–Levy 9 had fragments up to TWO KILOMETERS in diameter. There are a lot of errors in this video.
19. Where do you get your information? Little Boy (the Hiroshima bomb) had a yield of 15k tons. 3.8M tons isn't 3 times bigger. It's 253.3 times bigger. The gray circle on Jupiter isn't 1300 times bigger than the Earth, Jupiter itself is 1300 times bigger than the Earth. That gray circle might be the same size as the Earth.
20. How the hell is Tscheljabinsk not Nr. 1??
    It was the biggest recorded meteor in human history. Roughly 30 Hiroshima bombs is nothing to scoff at.
