Yikes!

As a pre-school kid I burnt my feet and I'm sure I bloody levitated the day lighening struck me. I got a hiding from my mom for blaspheming when I told her Jesus burned me and picked me up. But I digress.

This kid got hit by a pea size meteorite. The government took it for testing. If I were him I'd want to keep it.

meteorites that hit stuff like houses and cars are called hammers, and whatever they hit is usually worth shit loads of £ to collectors. One time a meteorite hit a car window and when the window was auctioned it fetched big dollar, like tens of thousands....

The house that the piece speaks about, bits of that fetch hundreds, small bits. There was a termite on ebay sometime back that was in that house when it got hit, the termite was squished and it sold for a fair bit, can't remember how much....

For those who connect the dots in ways I don't fully understand, I picked up on something, I think, while reading the story again.

This...

Scientists are now studying the pea-sized meteorite, which crashed to Earth in Essen in Germany.

That word is connected to Jesus isn't it? He was from the Essen tribe or something like that, I seem to recall. And this thing came from out of the sky.

Maybe I've just spent too long on this forum. :D

Will you tell us more of the above experience please? I am interested in levitation as I don't like flying in planes.

I'm not sure there is much to tell. It's something I remember happening as a small child which my mum confirmed when was in my late teens and it came up again. I was over the road in an undeveloped lot with my siblings, my father and a neighbour - I think they were smoking pot. I remember playing with my pink hulu hoop then suddenly feeling like I was being picked up, by no one, and dropped again. My feet were burned so I crawled toward home, the neighbour helped me and told my mom what had happened when she shouted at me.

Boy Hit By Meteorite Travelling At 30,000mph

2 hours 19 mins ago

A teenager was hit by a meteorite travelling at 30,000mph - and lived to tell the tale.

Gerrit Blank was on his way to school when he saw a massive fireball heading straight towards him from the sky.

The white-hot meteorite bounced off the schoolboy's hand and hit the ground so hard it left a foot-long crater in the tarmac - as well as a three-inch scar on his hand.

Gerrit, 14, said: "At first I just saw a large ball of light and then I suddenly felt a pain in my hand.

"Then, a split second after that, there was an enormous bang like a crash of thunder."

"The noise that came after the flash of light was so loud that my ears were ringing for hours afterwards.

"When it hit me it knocked me flying and then was still going fast enough to bury itself in the road."

Scientists are now studying the pea-sized meteorite, which crashed to Earth in Essen in Germany.

Chemical tests on the rock have now proved it is from outer space.

Ansgar Korte, director of Germany's Walter Hohmann Observatory, said: "It's a real meteorite, therefore it is very valuable to collectors and scientists."

Chances of being struck by a meteorite are around one in 100 million.

Mr Korte said: "Most meteorites don't actually make it to ground level because they evaporate in the atmosphere.

"Of those that do get through, about six out of every seven of them land in water."

There is only one other known case of a human being surviving a direct hit from a meteor.

A grapefruit-sized meteor crashed through the roof of a house in Alabama, in the USA, in 1954.

After smashing through the top of the building, it bounced off furniture and then hit a woman who was asleep at the time.

I'm about to take an enforced break for now. Got to pack for a weekend in Bristol Banksy hunting. No internet!

Sometimes it helps to pull ones head out of the rabbit hole. Making that link shows me I've fallen right into it ;)

Where's Tintin? I'd like to see if/how he/she links this to what's really going on.

Yes the Essenes were associated with Jesus. It was rumoured that he spent some of his missing years studying mysticism and healing with them. Here's a little blurb on them, interesting when I first saw the name of the town I automatically thought of them too.

I hope they give it him back after testing. If they don't that's just mean.
