I think you are talking about the overpass?

She shouldn't have called and kept it. That is worth some money

29 miles up. Five times higher than most flights, and we "got lucky?" Pandering to retards.

That's roughly 25 tons of TNT hitting the ground.
Picture a bomb leveling an entire city block.

I am no explosives expert but I am thinking 50,000 pounds of tnt will levelway more than one city block.
For some context, “Little Boy”, the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, was the equivalent of 15,000 tons of TNT and it leveled roughly 70% of the city.

An All Risks policy would. Unless somewhere in the exclusions it lists falling meteors.
Also, most HO-3s covered this for years, under "falling objects". Not sure if they still do. From a pure risk perspective, it's a win for insurance companies.

How could they possibly know its weight?
I'd be surprised if they weren't aware of the object long before impact and decided not to warn people.

Did the enter meteor weigh 1 ton or was it the fragment that weighed 1 ton?
I’m asking after it entered Earth atmosphere.
That's what I was wondering. Only 3ft wide and weighs 1 TON??

That’s crazy. That’s almost as dense as a Peavey T-40 Bass.

Cause math is a real thing.
We have enough technology to collect enough data to solve for x.

Was the meteor from Louisiana and speaking ebonics?
Posted on 3/22/26 at 11:30 am to hawgfaninc
Too bad it missed downtown

What if it’s hollow?
What if it has a solid gold core?
They have no idea.
