Crazy.

Reminds me, a few years ago I was driving Hwy 93 at about midnight in the winter. I was driving through the valley just after coming down Storm Mountain so not in an avalanche area and hadn't seen a car in either direction since I got on the Hwy or for the next 5 minutes did I see anyone else.

Something came down onto my windshield and shattered it on the passenger side. I'm not saying I got hit directly from space but WTF? Can a meteorite bounce down a road? It didn't come from another car, nor was I anywhere near anything that could produce falling rocks. I hadn't thought of this in years until now but I racked my brain trying to figure it out the whole drive.
