Boy Hit By Meteorite
Gerrit Blank was hit by a meteorite traveling at 30,000 mph. This 14 year-old boy story was confirmed by scientists at Germany’s Walter Hohmann Observatory.
“At first I just saw a large ball of light, and then I suddenly felt a pain in my hand. Then a split second after that there was an enormous bang like a crash of thunder. The noise that came after the flash of light was so loud that my ears were ringing for hours afterwards. When it hit me it knocked me flying and then was still going fast enough to bury itself into the road.”
Scientists tested the highly magnetic rock. The rock is the size of a pea and did come from outer space. It hit him on his hand, leaving a 3 inch scar.
You have one in a million chance of being hit by a meteorite.
