STRUCK BY A METEORITE
This Sylacauga, Alabama resident is one of the only people (maybe the
only person) to be struck by a meteorite. The 8 1/2 pound chunk of space
rock crashed through the roof of her home, hit her radio, and ricocheted
into her side and hand. It left this nasty bruise, which looks eerily like a
meteorite itself.
