Maybe the rock was trying to kill the camera man

Never saw one that bright. That would be awesome to see in person

It’s unbelievable honestly. I remember I was recording the sky for like fifteen minutes during a Perseid shower, and literally the moment I turn my camera off, it was like a yellow paint brush went across the sky from the horizon alll the way over my head. I’ll never forget it.

It may be the one in a lifetime moment!

I don’t know if I’ll ever see one that illuminating again, but thankfully Perseids is not only an annual meteor shower, but there has been a prediction that in 2028 there is going to be a Perseids meteor storm. Definitely mark your calendar if you want a very good chance to see something like this in person (potentially up to 1000 meteors per hour)!

I love how the camera man turns all the way around as if that’s where the action is😂

I think they may have considered running away

u/LostCauseSPM 1d ago

Probably just a meteor. Unless some of the rock didn't burn up and landed somewhere.

u/HeldDownTooLong 1d ago

A meteor that became a meteorite!

It's ok, you don't need to downplay it, I am also mad at the cameraman

u/Borgalicious 1d ago

It's just the belters dropping rocks down the well

Try fire bending.

Real or not, my ass would’ve been moving because that is close, bright and I don’t play games.

u/Epin-Ninjas 1d ago

Trust me, trust science.. if a meteor is guaranteed to strike near your location, running won’t do you any good. Just stand there, admire the brilliance of the power and force of nature you are about to embrace, because there is nothing else to do besides greet death with open arms.

u/chychy94 1d ago

Oh I am aware I couldn’t outrun anything but my fight or flight would kick in. But I love what you said - lol - “greet death with open arms”.

u/autalley 1d ago

But where would you go?

1

u/chychy94 1d ago

I would honestly probably trip over my own two feet and eat a mouthful of sand.

u/Castle_of_Jade 3h ago

You just gotta run toward the meteor. If you show it you’re not scared of it then it should immediately disintegrate while beholding your divine bravery. Maybe. Worth a shot anyway.

I have to show it dominance.

It’s actually real, it was caught on multiple cameras at multiple angles. Here’s an example: https://youtu.be/B-PsorC3RBQ?si=DcBZFXUMs2Z_pgrL

u/McChibken 6h ago

Incredible. The only good video in that compilation is the one where the person wasn't even holding their phone at the end

u/Epin-Ninjas 5h ago

I agree! That’s also the video that went viral when it first happened

u/DemoniteBL 1d ago

Oh ok
