METEORITE EXPLODES OVER RUSSIAN CITY:~900 injured

[Col.Random 3,683]

First of all let me make it clear this IS NOT THE SAME ASTEROID THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO PASS THE EARTH TODAY

Edit:No one was injured by the meteor, but the damage was actually done by the shockwaves from  it

daaang..... Hope everyone is okay.

I hope all the injured get better. I heard from people in school that no one died, and I hope that's true. My condolences go to those who have been affected.

I heard about this earlier. I hate when things like this happen, and there's nothing anyone can do to avoid it.

I hope and pray to those that were hurt that they may get better. 

 

It was cool seeing something like that though. I kinda wish I was there to see it. 

[Ptolema 404]

I hope none of the injured die... This makes me sad.

Dayum. That sucks So many people, hopefully they'll be alright.

Funfact: A meteorite upon striking Earth unleashes more energy than all of the atomic weapons combined. 

 

It is quite a scary event to behold, but it seems that Russian's aren't really disgruntled by this stuff.

I heard it was 500 injured, not 900.

[VanitasTheBest 196]

I heard about this earlier. That meteorite weighed 16 tons. I hate when things like this happen, and there's nothing anyone can do to avoid it.

You mean the asteroid?The Meteorite(s) who crashed into the buildings were only 1 up to 5 meter.Also 2 hours ago it was stated, that there are 700 injured and over 150 of them were children, but it's most likely that there are way more injured people.It's pretty shocking to see that happen

This better not be that asteroid passing very close to earth...because that would destroy an entire city.

Oh, I must have misheard that the METEORITE was 16 tons.

I researched a bit more about it after that post, so I figured that out.

Got lazy and didn't edit it

[The Transcendent Key 12,109]

I saw this on the news earlier today and I was impressed by the speed and size of the meteor.  It gave me chills down my spine. I hope everyone in Russia is okay.

[Mystics Apprentice 2,397]

I was watching some videos on it.  That's just insane.  At least no one was killed, as far as I'm aware...

[Kirie 3,489]

omg thats just terrible i hope all those peopple are okay

the fact that makes me think about this just scares me

lets hope another meteor doesnt go near us D:

[RoxSox 3,593]

So the apocalypse starts in Russia? Never would have guessed.

[P50L 610]

Oh damn. Hope they're alright....

 

Someone must have had 4 Mars Djinn on Standby 

[Daniel Black 1,981]

Ok who used Meteo spell here?

 

Now seriously, one in Russia, one in San Francisco and another in Cuba... sounds fishy for me... ¬¬ so fishy....

Hope people will get better soon.

Meteors striking earth actually happens quite often. The more civilization expands, the more we'll see this type of thing happening.

[Weedanort 8,786]

dayum.....

 

DAYUM

 

But still, at least nobody got killed by the meteor. Thank God.

This was pretty funny (NOT at the expense of the injured Russians) due to the Russian guy I work with coming into work the afternoon after this was reported (not that any of the rest of us had seen) and tried to explain in broken english how this BIG BIG BIG ROCK FROM THE SPACE....GALLAC.... HIT RUSSIA, LOADS OF PEOPLES DEAD, IT'S ORRIBLE.... he is a bit of a drama queen to be fair.....
