Amazing how something 55 feet across, and moving 40,000 mph can do so much damage. Thank god it didnt happen over a heavily populated area.

This thing exploded right above a city with 1 million inhabitants. 1200 people were hurt.

fine then, good thing it didnt explode over a place such as europe or moscow. otherwise it would have been MUCH worse. 1200 vs 100,000... id take 1200.

Key number: 40,000 MPH. That's about 52 times the speed of sound. Imagine that blowing up above your head!

Yep, thats the benefit of living in a small country.
Less chanche of beeing hit.
Downside: if we where hit the whole country would be in
ruins.

its amazing only 1200 people were hurt honestly, thats nothing compared to the total population of earth, this could have been MUCH worse imo.
