>Then you need to tune up your analysis skills. And your knowledge of meteoritics. The video was not falsified, and is hardly "phony". What it shows is plausibly explained by the meteorite hypothesis. Many, perhaps most meteorite falls are not preceded by a significant fireball, and even fewer by acoustics of any sort.

>I don't hear many people saying there's a "reasonable chance" this could be a meteorite. I didn't even hear much of that early on. Only that nothing obviously excludes this from being a meteorite. That's a distinction well worth remembering. If this had been trivially rejected from the beginning, no analysis would have been performed, and that would be unfortunate.
