    And so life as we know it ceasees to exist.

    Blah blah blah.

    Like we all not going to die sometime?

    People are so fearful of a natural thing like death.

    1. THATS to big.
    2. it would take LESS size, to do anbout 1/2 that damage..Including the one coming in 2029 at 800 meters(?) that could WIPE about 1/2 the population, depending on the Area of impact.

    Natural disasters and huge extinctions are cool. It we’re all riding mass transit in 2036 better to be wiped out.

    Someday, in a land that has grown up into an appreciation of the differences between right and wrong, aspec ratio of media pieces will avoid the inappropriate “does this make me look fat” stretch and the equally tragic “egg scrambles egg” collision footage.

    Still, it’s comforting to know that the world is run by C students.

    But the video doesn’t tell the ugly truth: that humans were responsible for 5 of the 6 impacts, despite the fact that we weren’t around at the time!

    This scenario, while it does make a compelling animation, is extremely unlikely to happen in the next billion years, or to have happened any more recently than 3.5 to 4 billion years ago. 500km is over half the diameter of Ceres, the largest of all the asteroids. There can’t be that many, and if any were in Earth-crossing orbits we _would_ know about them by now.

    Heck of a show, though.

    If it happens it happens…and hopefully when Earth awakes and there is “human” life again they will appreciate and respect eachother more.

    Maybe we (so called “humans”) will destroy our planet before anything like this happens…but if this happens…hopefully then, when Earth awakes and there is “human” life again, they will appreciate and respect eachother more.

    I have a low quality vid up now. My first narrated video, it feels strange talking to yourself while making it.
