The Only Known Person Who Survived a Meteorite

According to scientists, you have higher chances to get struck by lightning, hit by a tornado, and blown away by a hurricane — all at the same time. However, there was one person who got this lucky chance! Um, maybe we shouldn’t exactly say “lucky” here?

In the early hours of November 30, 1954, a meteorite hit the roof of a home in the small town of Syl-a-cauga. The house's owner, Eugene Hodges, rushed home, only to find a huge crowd of gawkers looking at his dwelling, agitated and pointing fingers. He had to push them away from his doorstep to get to his wife, Ann, who was still inside. When Eugene opened the front door, what he saw shocked him.
