I had an identical experience while on the coast of the Mid-Atlantic US several years ago: a giant fireball flew over me for around half a minute, give or take. I was indoors looking at the sea at night through a large window. There was no sound I could hear from inside the room. I was so mesmerized by the meteor that it didn't occur to me to take my eyes off from it, you know, to grab my phone and record the whole t…

#36Too bad there wasn’t a bunch of people driving with car cameras like in Russia, which turned out to be very useful during their meteorite event. This was also at 1am at night in a more rural area. Maybe more video will come out as this news spreads and people check security cameras.

There's recent footage on Reddit ("rocks falling from the cliff" + /nextfu**glevel/ ) showing the enormous energies of a rock slide in Himachal Pradesh which was just brutal (people died, although footage does not depict that directly).

That's because no one can afford to drive in Oslo any more. Every road is a toll road and there are no parking spaces any more.
