How to Find a Meteorite in Your Own Backyard 

I watched this video because my dad told me if I found a meteorite he would get me a flamethrower (VERY long story)

do your Magnets a BIG Favor and put them in a plastic bag 1st, then it's very easy to clear the items from the magnet onto a sorting area, so so so much easier then in the video.

I used this trick to find a meteor in my toilet bowl.

I found a 5 gram meteorite in my backyard ☄☄☄

Meteorites are believed to strike the earth's surface only about five to ten times per year. Therefore, I think this video may be overestimating how easy it is to find meteorites.

65 million years ago?????????????

I actually did find a meteorite about half pound meteorite in my yard by complete accident here on Linececum Village rd in Louisiana! Its the 4th to ever be found in Louisiana.

Next time place a plastic bag over your magnet genius!

I don’t have a backyard, I live in apartment

Has anyone ever found a meteor fused in asphalt?

That's amazing! Thanks for that vid mate. Every kid should know about that! This would be a very smart activity at school too.

For 7 years ago this was well edited and great footage

For me, not so picky, I think that's pretty cool. I wonder what size it would need to be to see its entry. I saw a meteor enter and hit the side of Mt. Rainier while ascending - about 4 AM. And fortunately I wasn't the only one in our climbing party to see it.

I went to some corners of my house and found extremely small fragments that fit all the meteorite criteria.

So this means were constantly breathing this meteor dust as well

I found a Meteorite in stream gravel pile - weighed 6 oz

Anybody Remember The Joe Dirt Meteorite? lmao

Very nice video. Great content

i may of found a few meteroites or asteroids but i need too make sure that they are what they are can you reccomend a book that can positivly identify them and tell me what too do too identify them

That might just be iron
