[QUOTE=Sobek-;42548521]You mean like this guy? [IMG]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lhkDf4yFu7o/USY0hETgMkI/AAAAAAAAzTU/3pBUHdzwEVg/s1600/4.gif[/IMG] Coincidentally, I just started watching Meteorite Men from the beginning, such a simple concept, such a chronically enjoyable show. I get excited when they find even a small chunk. Definitely a 'job' I could enjoy doing...[/QUOTE] Seeing a meteor in real life is nowhere near as cool you think it would be. It's been my dream to see one up until last year when I was working at night, heard an explosion and saw some lights streak across the sky then disappear. I thought they were fireworks not a once in a lifetime event.

Shit, if I saw that while out and about today I'd be wondering if it was a meteorite, a plane going down in flames, etc. I doubt I'd be as chill as that guy.
[QUOTE=Zeke129;42547201]The lake was frozen so there would have been big ice shards flying everywhere too I'm picturing some russian dude fishing out there and just not giving a shit[/QUOTE] he'd use it as a new fishing hole [editline]18th October 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Dr.C;42570257]Seeing a meteor in real life is nowhere near as cool you think it would be.
