Actually you could argue they were the lucky ones. The survivors experienced things like permanent hearing loss, problems with their eyesight, other health issues and the death of animals needed for food. If my memory is correct, several homes were leveled as well. With such results of the blast it's no wonder the inhabitants thought their god was angry. Many people today wonder the same thing after a catastrophe.
Ah yes. Super lucky to have your windows shattered in the dead of a Siberian winter then being knocked unconscious along with everyone around you for miles
As a child I was within a couple miles of a meteor impacting the earth in the middle of the night. The sky lit up like the color of a plasma torch (or lightning) followed by a earth shattering ka-boom (I couldn't help myself - but seriously) & numerous less loud booms. It was amazing!
I always assumed the Tunguska event was caused by a fragment of a comet rather than a meteor, as very little debris from the object was ever found, and comets are predominantly made of ice. Which of course would of vaporized away to nothing leaving only trace metals from inside said comet…which were indeed, later detected.
@@HonkeyKongLive No impact Crater, because it would have turn to steam before even hitting the ground. Also, the ground is marshy permafrost, which after being melted would just refill any hole over time. And scientists have thought of this. I read about it thirty years ago.
I bet that's due to the composition of the vapors phosphorescing from the solar wind. NASA sent up a sounding rocket two years ago from Virginia to inject compounds into the stratosphere for scientific research, you should look it up. It was quite a (tiny puny) sight, the phosphor trails in the evening sky.
I learned about this back in the day from this older guy who created an energy drink called "Tunguska blast". I was installing garage doors at his house and he told me all about it. He gave me a couple cases. It was surprisingly good. This was like 2005, I looked a few years back and he don't make them anymore.😢
That’s as cool as you can get! Maybe he wasn’t able to replicate a potion as strong as Red Bull or Monster. Still, him giving you a few cases is pretty cool!
Hey, that's a good name for an energy drink. 2005 would have been pretty early on in the energy drink game too, even Red Bull would have still been relatively new (worldwide anyway). He might have been able to make a fortune if he'd stuck with it or gotten enough investments for advertising or distribution deals.

05:55f: _If you thing you figured it out, this would be the time to pause the video and smuggly put your idea in the comments._ A comet, rather than an asteroid. Comets tend to consist of different ices than solid rock, some of them consisting of hydrocarbons. As soon as it reached atmospheric layers of considerable density, the friction-generated heat became too much for the ices and they sublimed in such quantities that the entire thing burst into pieces. They fell to different places and each piece exploded individually, explaining the artillery fire impression.
This isn't as far fetched as it first sounds, after all a comet did impact Jupiter and left VISIBLE scars in it's atmosphere. The debunk for a comet is the long visible tail that would make it virtually impossible for one to impact Earth without being seen first.

Comet... since the 1980's I've always heard it explained as an air burst comet. Comets are made up of space dust and rocks and a large amount of water ice. The fine dust and vaporized water would have hung out longer and higher, also giving intense colors, like clouds at sunset. This explains the low but present levels of space material at the blast site.
Don't be so sure. Asteroids have wrecked this planet many times over in the past billions of years. Last time it happened was the Younger Dryas event / impact just 12,000 years ago.
Tesla did it on accident, every event matches what his tower does and it was fired at full power at that time at that direction, he under calculated its power
From the first couple minutes of this video as an Astrophysicist immediately I thought meteor or ice chunk that simply vaporized before hitting the ground. The shockwave would still continue and would easily explain all this phenomena. Will continue with video now...
The Rolling Stones were actually big fans of German philosophy, they even mentioned it in their songs. “You Kant always get what you want. But if you try some times you just might find, you get what you Nietzsche”
The Why Files did an episode on exactly this a couple weeks ago. The expected power of the device was far lower than it actually was and Tesla way overshot his intended target, an island in Northern Canada. Same day. Death ray pointed in that direction. I'm not saying it WAS Tesla, but, you know...
I was just looking at something of this about 3 days ago about Tesla's Death Ray and some admiral was up the far side of the north pole, I really do think this is what happened here 🤔
Hypothesis: With the temperature there, natural gas leak and a small, super hot meteorite, there is a rare possibility that it created that much damage and did not leave a crater.
@@Cobrax_x Take a look at Hiroshima & Nagasaki, the walls of many buildings directly below the airburst nukes stayed upright whereas in a circle around were flattened. The Tunguska Event was probably an airburst meteorite just as Thoughty mentioned. I saw a documentary several years ago, where a Russian scientist performed some experiments using hundreds of small sticks to represent trees & small scale explosive charges traveling along an angled wire & he exploded the various sized charges at various positions & speeds & concluded that a meteorite or comet at a fairly shallow angle exploded about 5 - 10 Km above the ground, it had an explosive yield of about 40 megatons & it formed a pattern in the fallen sticks (representing trees) that very closely matched the shape of the fallen trees at Tunguska (including that the ones directly below the test explosion remained upright).
@@Lazmanarus I agree, for explosives that would be the case, but wouldn't a gas leak into the open air cause a much slower fire considering? Unless as stated in the video it was one of those sudden bursts of gas from the earth, but it does seem way too coincidental for both that and an airburst meteor occurring simultaneously.
Just replayed and the German one reads cut in captions, and a boo-boo baby blackout box covers Kundt's name entirely... Wonder hoe he'd have liked that...?
You do know that this has been proven completely false many many times. So your watching someone who is happy to lie to you while pretending to teach you truth.
@@Lisa-x3n5x ruclips.net/video/AGi2w6MFt38/видео.html is a good start but google "Russian Scientists debunk tunguska" Its just a myth that lying documentary makers have made into what it is. A lie.
@@Lisa-x3n5x Lake Cheko was supposed to be the impact crater of the large explosion that occurred near the Tunguska Riva in Russian Siberia, which was detected hundreds of miles away. However, Russian scientists revealed that Lake Cheko is at least 280 years old, which means that the lake dates back hundreds of years before the Tunguska event.
Obviously what we need is some sort of little white triangle, that shoots white dots while drifting and spinning through space, being guided by two buttons and a joystick.
It has been hypothesized that if the "Event" that occurred at Tunguska eight (8) hours later than it did, it would've occurred over London, United Kingdom of Great Britain. It was good that it happened over an sparsely populated area of Siberia.
This might support the earth-grazer theory. The meteor wasn’t destroyed but instead continued on its path resulting in the duration of the light, which can last for several minutes near the sight of the event
@@milkywaffles5701 not traveling at 60,000 miles per hour. I understand a low trajectory would prolong it but the space shuttle would travel the width of the us in 15 min traveling at less than 1/3rd the speed so i dont buy that. I think thats a big problem for that theory.
Long time viewer here, just wanted to say you're doing a great job. Your voice is very soothing and interesting to listen to, you can tell theres a lot of effort and research put into every video. Keep up the good work :) love the moustache.
The Tcheljabinsk meteor showed us what happened. Tunguska was a much larger meteor which split into many pieces. Each of those pieces then behaved like the Tcheljabinsk meteor: first it got hot due to air resistance, and then the whole piece got so hot it exploded in a bang. While the Tcheljabinsk meteor was only ONE piece that exploded and evaporated, causing ONE mighty bang which destroyed many windows, the Tunguska meteor ended in a number of pieces, each larger then the Tcheljabinsk meteor. Every single one of them was bigger and had somewhat more energy than the latter which caused the number of explosions people reported hearing. Besides, as all parts exploded in close distance from each other the energy of all those explosions accumulated towards the ground and flattened the forest underneath.
@@jhsrt985 As the meteors heat up and explode there is a lot of very fine meteoric dust which stays in the atmosphere and causes such a lit sky for a few days.
One of the programs that actually can give an idea of what could have happened is Mythbusters: in one episode they proved that a bucket of ignited termite above some blocks of ice are equal to a big boom. Its possible that it broke in half midway to the ground and the exposed core (still freezing cold and with almost no pressure applied to it, all thanks to space) was then faced with the extreme temperatures and pressure from the entry into the atmosphere. Then, the meteorite would have been desintegrated with a explosion just seconds before it actually touched the ground.
"The Apocalypse Earth Miraculously Escaped" I thought you were discussing my first divorce, so i looked. The damage done was, well, pretty much the same.
I saw an asteroid in June 2016, early one morning in Phoenix Az. I was outside before sunrise, it lit up the sky like a giant floodlight and streaked across the sky like the footage @7:57. It was breathtaking, I remember thinking that must have been what the Chicxulub asteroid looked like when it arrived.
Wild that Watcher uploaded a video about this two days prior to you! The fact that you guys were all making content about it at the same time without realizing is amusing
Personally I think Tesla’s death ray has some very valid points combined with the knowledge that Tesla had a seriously advanced understanding of wireless power delivery and the fact that the powers that were at the time did everything they could to get rid of Tesla
Well...technically, a meteorite detonating in an airburst is extraterrestrial...but I digress. Tinfoil hat aside, outstanding video as always!!! Thank you Thoughty2!
4:31 Solar flare? I mean, it seems like it fits to me. 5:58 I mean, I already did this... .Not really _smugly_ but more curiously. Oh well, I was wrong. OK. Thanks for the video.
I've always loved the Tunguska theories, some are outlandish as all hell, like the mad theory that it was an ancient planetary defence weapon that activated when a meteor sent by extraterrestrials with a nefarious agenda got too close to us, causing a massive airburst. The giant earth fart is always a good one... Cosmic toilet humour. Until it's proven 100% what it really was though I'll stick with the cosmic fart or Tesla theory. They're crazy but they're fun.
This event would repeat itself during the Chelyabinsk Asteroid Impact of 2013. Hundreds of people living in and around the area of Chelyabinsk were able to film the moment the Asteroid entered the Atmosphere. That asteroid blew up in a very large air burst that damaged thousands of structures both business government and private homes, and it injured 1500 people who lived in the city of Chelyabinsk. The 1908 Asteroid Impact was exactly the same thing, an airburst Asteroid Impact event that was quite a bit larger. Skies in 2013 also glowed for a few nights after the Chelyabinsk event. Unlike the 1908 Event, Scientist were in a round about way, waiting for it and had the equipment on hand to record it. (via NASA, Russo cosmos(SP?) JAX ESA and other space agencies.) The International Space Station was in orbit and it along with a lot of earth observing satellites were able to observe the event & study it. No mystery at all about the 1908 Tunguska event: it was an Asteroid impact that instead of hitting the ground, blew up in the air (leading to an Airburst like at Chelyabinsk) Good video however.....
Nikloa Tesla was experimenting with wardencliffe at the time . One experiment buit up a charge , which had to be destroyed , so he sent it out over Tungushka , as Tesla knew there werent many people living there . Had the receiver been built in Európe , the charge would have goe to that . Thanks a lot J.P.Morgan .
i did a lot of research on this in university! what was really interesting was learning the similarities between this, the... i believe it was 2013 air burst in russia, and the blast that may have destroyed the city of tall el-hammam. also learned that russia is more likely to have events like this simply because it is Large

I've never seen a Thoughty2 video that didn't peak my interest. Keep it going Arron, been loving the content for many years now.
You do know that this has been proven completely false many many times. So your watching someone who is happy to lie to you while pretending to teach you truth.
@@autisticsimon12 can you please cite you're sources? I googled it and didn't come up with anything.
@@Lisa-x3n5x ruclips.net/video/AGi2w6MFt38/видео.html is a good start but google "Russian Scientists debunk tunguska" Its just a myth that lying documentary makers have made into what it is. A lie.
@@Lisa-x3n5x Lake Cheko was supposed to be the impact crater of the large explosion that occurred near the Tunguska Riva in Russian Siberia, which was detected hundreds of miles away. However, Russian scientists revealed that Lake Cheko is at least 280 years old, which means that the lake dates back hundreds of years before the Tunguska event.

Obviously what we need is some sort of little white triangle, that shoots white dots while drifting and spinning through space, being guided by two buttons and a joystick.
Ahhh throwback to the OG Call Of Duty Zombies lore
Oh yes, Shi No Numa
It has been hypothesized that if the "Event" that occurred at Tunguska eight (8) hours later than it did, it would've occurred over London, United Kingdom of Great Britain. It was good that it happened over an sparsely populated area of Siberia.
Please we need another one! We humans are becoming to stupid
too
Is stupid awaiting our arrival?
Yes… we are becoming TOO stupid 😂
11:35 Got an extra "e" in "Earth". Great video!
Carl Sagan did a good piece on this in his series Cosmos
I believe he speculated it might have been a comet.
This is the most entertaining educational channels on you tube. I especially like your kitchen
It was probably a comet air butst that likely came from the Torid meteor stream
Thanks for all of your videos good sir.
I wish you would do one on Hisachi Ouchi. The guy that took the most radiation ever😉
I second this👍🏻
The fact another just actual hit it.. it was much smaller but I've seen sat photos off my mate. It's nuts the damage done.
There is one problem, the eye witnesses said the light crossed the sky for 12 min. Meteors dont last that long
This might support the earth-grazer theory. The meteor wasn’t destroyed but instead continued on its path resulting in the duration of the light, which can last for several minutes near the sight of the event
@@milkywaffles5701 not traveling at 60,000 miles per hour. I understand a low trajectory would prolong it but the space shuttle would travel the width of the us in 15 min traveling at less than 1/3rd the speed so i dont buy that. I think thats a big problem for that theory.
@@milkywaffles5701 also the lower the angle the faster it would have to travel not to hit the ground
I can always count on thoughty2's videos to entertain me on days where my recommendations are trash
As a giant hole in the Earth, I approve of this video.
you a vag? 🗿
Sorry guys it was me
Should of skipped the beans
Who else stops watching thoughty2’s channel for like a month, so when they get back, there’s like 4 new videos to binge on😂😂😂
The natural gas leakage was something that I also supposed in the first few minutes of the video, and the meteorite could have been the ignitor.
Long time viewer here, just wanted to say you're doing a great job. Your voice is very soothing and interesting to listen to, you can tell theres a lot of effort and research put into every video. Keep up the good work :) love the moustache.
Best thing on youtube
Thanks for all the amazing videos mate.
The Tcheljabinsk meteor showed us what happened. Tunguska was a much larger meteor which split into many pieces. Each of those pieces then behaved like the Tcheljabinsk meteor: first it got hot due to air resistance, and then the whole piece got so hot it exploded in a bang.
While the Tcheljabinsk meteor was only ONE piece that exploded and evaporated, causing ONE mighty bang which destroyed many windows, the Tunguska meteor ended in a number of pieces, each larger then the Tcheljabinsk meteor. Every single one of them was bigger and had somewhat more energy than the latter which caused the number of explosions people reported hearing.
Besides, as all parts exploded in close distance from each other the energy of all those explosions accumulated towards the ground and flattened the forest underneath.
That doesn't explain why the sky was lit up for days around the world, but tesla tower matches every event that occurred. Hope this interests you
@@jhsrt985 As the meteors heat up and explode there is a lot of very fine meteoric dust which stays in the atmosphere and causes such a lit sky for a few days.
One of the programs that actually can give an idea of what could have happened is Mythbusters: in one episode they proved that a bucket of ignited termite above some blocks of ice are equal to a big boom. Its possible that it broke in half midway to the ground and the exposed core (still freezing cold and with almost no pressure applied to it, all thanks to space) was then faced with the extreme temperatures and pressure from the entry into the atmosphere. Then, the meteorite would have been desintegrated with a explosion just seconds before it actually touched the ground.

I thought you were discussing my first divorce, so i looked. The damage done was, well, pretty much the same.
Always informative
Always entertaining
Thank you
Thank you for your post x
if Wolfgang moved to Australia, he'd think everyone was talking about him 🤣
thanks for sharing such interesting, various bits and pieces, we love it
Oh, even science channels did not explain that it was the meteor dust that caused the glow. Great works.
I saw an asteroid in June 2016, early one morning in Phoenix Az. I was outside before sunrise, it lit up the sky like a giant floodlight and streaked across the sky like the footage @7:57. It was breathtaking, I remember thinking that must have been what the Chicxulub asteroid looked like when it arrived.
Wild that Watcher uploaded a video about this two days prior to you! The fact that you guys were all making content about it at the same time without realizing is amusing
We have near hits all the time, a collision is a near miss!!
Personally I think Tesla’s death ray has some very valid points combined with the knowledge that Tesla had a seriously advanced understanding of wireless power delivery and the fact that the powers that were at the time did everything they could to get rid of Tesla
Two tribesman trapped the last living mammoth on earth, when it farted very close to their campfire, extinguishing all three in a massive fireball.
This is one of my two favorite channels the other being the why files.
Well...technically, a meteorite detonating in an airburst is extraterrestrial...but I digress. Tinfoil hat aside, outstanding video as always!!! Thank you Thoughty2!
I believe that it should be his “most civilized” video I have ever seen .
"and that isn't even accounting for the two thirds of earth that is covered in water."
Tsunamis: Hold my water.
FINALLY!! this mystery explained. Nice
If someone gave me a proper telescope I'd watch the skies all night every night as I sit on my disability pension.
4:31 Solar flare? I mean, it seems like it fits to me.
5:58 I mean, I already did this... .Not really _smugly_ but more curiously.
Oh well, I was wrong. OK.
Thanks for the video.
I've always loved the Tunguska theories, some are outlandish as all hell, like the mad theory that it was an ancient planetary defence weapon that activated when a meteor sent by extraterrestrials with a nefarious agenda got too close to us, causing a massive airburst.
The giant earth fart is always a good one... Cosmic toilet humour.
Until it's proven 100% what it really was though I'll stick with the cosmic fart or Tesla theory. They're crazy but they're fun.
This event would repeat itself during the Chelyabinsk Asteroid Impact of 2013. Hundreds of people living in and around the area of Chelyabinsk were able to film the moment the Asteroid entered the Atmosphere. That asteroid blew up in a very large air burst that damaged thousands of structures both business government and private homes, and it injured 1500 people who lived in the city of Chelyabinsk. The 1908 Asteroid Impact was exactly the same thing, an airburst Asteroid Impact event that was quite a bit larger. Skies in 2013 also glowed for a few nights after the Chelyabinsk event. Unlike the 1908 Event, Scientist were in a round about way, waiting for it and had the equipment on hand to record it. (via NASA, Russo cosmos(SP?) JAX ESA and other space agencies.) The International Space Station was in orbit and it along with a lot of earth observing satellites were able to observe the event & study it. No mystery at all about the 1908 Tunguska event: it was an Asteroid impact that instead of hitting the ground, blew up in the air (leading to an Airburst like at Chelyabinsk) Good video however.....
one of the coolest youtube channels its been amazing watching this channel evolve always great videos
Asteroid Day: June 30.
Hemorrhoid Day: Still waiting for the proclamation.
I think it was some kind of alien intervention
Love the knowledge that you give us. Thank you!
Nikloa Tesla was experimenting with wardencliffe at the time .
One experiment buit up a charge , which had to be destroyed , so he sent it out over Tungushka , as Tesla knew there werent many people living there .
Had the receiver been built in Európe , the charge would have goe to that .
Thanks a lot J.P.Morgan .
The wink at the end gets me every time 😂
This reminded me of the "sinkholes" that "explode" into existence across Siberia as well. Especially in the Ural region.
One note here - there usually isn't so much snow in Siberia at the end of June 😀
i did a lot of research on this in university! what was really interesting was learning the similarities between this, the... i believe it was 2013 air burst in russia, and the blast that may have destroyed the city of tall el-hammam. also learned that russia is more likely to have events like this simply because it is Large
