She survived the meteor. Back in the day there was a game show "I've Got A Secret". She was the guest. I was about 6 & was peeking around the corner instead of being in bed. I saw her describe the incident. I was so frightened I had nightmares for weeks. The adults didn't know I'd seen the show & were dumbfounded.

Player #35053364, Wow, you had a good attention span and memory! When I was a kid I wasn't interesting in game shows.

joannabanana719, I'd rather have a sack of money fall through my roof. 😊

I'm glad she wasn't killed. Considering how many of these rocks that fly into our atmosphere, it's amazing how little damage they do.

The roof of her house is what saved her, it slowed the rock down, I think, good thing it didn’t hit her head,
