Meteors attack people and vehicles

A 14-year-old German boy was hit by a pea meteorite and left a scar.

The boy Gerrit Blanks said: 'When it falls on you, it makes me splash and then it still flies very fast and goes deep into the road'. Astronomers have analyzed the sample and concluded that it is actually an object from the universe, according to the Telegraph.

Most meteorites evaporate in the atmosphere, creating meteors, and never touch the ground. These meteors can fall to the ground mostly with metallic components . Universe stones, even as large as cars, are often shattered or exploded as they fly through the atmosphere.

There were countless cases of houses or vehicles hit by meteors, and many pieces of cosmic rocks were scratched into the surface and found later.

But rarely do meteors fly into people. There has never been a case of cosmic rocks that have killed people.
