Have you checked out my latest channel Business Blaze? It's interesting business stories with a dose of ridiculousness thrown in. Check it out here: www.youtube.com/channel/UCYY5GWf7MHFJ6DZeHreoXgw

This guy is on so many different channels he's essentially the last vestige of the British Empire

The fact that humans have been keeping records for a couple thousand years and there hasn't been a single meteor impact in a populated area still astounds me to this day
-
The craziest and EXTREMELY fortunate aspect of this is that it happened in such a remote area versus a much more populated area.

Theory: Aliens declared war on spruce trees.

"Nothing paranormal happened at Tunguska" "There is no war in Ba Sing Se"

I love the idea of Tesla cocking around with his tower and a chunk of Russia just flattens in the background

Here for some lore into the FGO Tunguska event
-
The Tsar Bomba was so powerful, the blast wave went back into time.

It's a bloody good job this didn't happen in the atomic age.

Can you imagine if the Tunguska meteor strike happened during the cold war? When everyone was on edge and jumpy waiting for first strike. 😳

My great-grandmother was a little girl in 1908 and was working in her mother's garden about 200 km away when this happened. She saw it go past, then she saw the explosion, then the blast wave went by.

"Tesla did an oopsie." I love you guys.
-
The thought of "Tesla doing an oopsie" has got to be one of the most terrifying prospects ever.

I did a report on this for my high school astronomy class. I found it both fascinating and scary when you think that an event like this could happen at any time, anywhere in the world.

An experiment was done decades ago to explain what happened, I believe it was in the late 50s. The researchers used match sticks for trees set up on a scaled topographic model. They put a explosive charge on a guy wire set at the angle of flight and set it off at the calculated speed and height of the explosion. They not only reproduced the pattern of tree fall with the one's at the center still erect, but also the butterfly shape of the area of devastation.

gigantic explosion that can't be explained happens Some Russian: oy blyat

When I was a teenager my theory was that the strange blast was Rasputin arriving in this plane of existence...

"You have been a participant in the biggest interdimensional cross-rip since the Tunguska blast of 1909!"
