    One of the perks of having so darn many cameras everywhere - we get to capture rarely recorded events like this regularly.

      American doorbell cams are the new Russian dashcam. Only main difference is that American doorbell cams are directly connected to the cloud/police.

        What’s truly wild is a news source providing the video at the top of the story without any overlays, talking heads or extraneous crap. Astonishing.

          I’m not on my usual device so I don’t know if adblock would have helped, but that BBC shithole did have a 30 second unskippable ad for a 10 second video.

      And yet still no ghost, aliens, yeti, etc.

      If only people realized how they need to betray their intellectual integrity to believe in any of those.

      People used to think the notion of rocks falling out of a clear blue sky was bullshit. And here we are.

          I read “bullshit” as “bullet”. I need to go to sleep.

    It sounds like gravel being thrown on a hard surface.

    Saved you a click.

      It also is able to be seen hitting the ground, so I’m not sure why they chose to only mention the audio.

        Because this is possibly the first known time we have recorded audio of a meteorite hitting the ground, but it’s not the first time we have recorded the vision of a meteorite hitting the ground.

    I’m surprised it didn’t make a bigger hole in their bricks.

      Most meteors that reach all the way to the surface are really small. Bigger impacts are rare, buy not impossible.

          Well, bullets are pretty small, but that’s not going to help when they travel so fast. Same applies to flying rocks too.

      The article is three short paragraphs and has the answer at the bottom.
      If people cannot be bothered to read beyond headlines we are truly fucked.
