So I was listening to my normal morning comedy show on te radio and they had a clip from some morning of Bill Nye te Science Guy (who is actually really smart lol) he was saying its not the meteor that caused the majority of damage or injuries but rather the air burning up the meteor. If that makes any sense lol, I typed this while at a traffic light.

I wonder how there's so much video footage of it, hmm, sounds like a conspiracy.

Stop believing everything you see.

There was no crater, people got injured from glass shattering and other debris from the blast. Last number I read was 1200.
