    Cool footage of meteor in western Canada

    Thought this was pretty cool. Dozens of roof top and security cameras caught the footage in Edmonton, but this dash mounted cop car cam seemed to have the best footage.



    Apparently reports came in from as far east as Manitoba and North Dakota, as far south as California and all of western Canada.

    Very cool. When my wife and I moved into our house around 6 years ago, I was up playing video games late one night and I had on of these land in my back yard. It was so bright that I thought a power line had snapped and set the house on fire. The next day I looked for the remnants, but I was unable to find them.

          If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

            That dash cam is pretty sweet.
            When I was just a little boy
            I asked my father what would he be
            Is he like Wrighty, or Titi henry?
            Here’s what he said to me
            oh Vela Vela, our Mexican superstar
            He’s better than Lou Saha
            oh Vela Vela…

              Wow! Any idea how far away he was from it? The sky was so bright.

                If I was there in the moment I might have confused that with a nuclear attack.

                  Amazing! I wonder where the guy who got hit by the meteor and got super powers is. If you're reading these lines, please contact us at OS.

                    I don't think anyone would attack Canada. Canada has no enemies imo.

                        that was awesome.
                        I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                        I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                          They say the meteor fell somewhere around the Alberta, Saskatchewan border, so it was over 600kms (300Miles) away from Edmonton where that footage was taken. I'm sure some farmers in the really remote place it landed got a far more amazing lights show.
