Seriously, small meteorites slow to terminal velocity before reaching the ground. Certainly subsonic, maybe under 300 mph. Way slower than pistol shots.

Still .... I can hurl a small stone at @ 70 mph.

In all the rock fights I had as a kid, they hurt !

Now, at four TIMES that speed ? - OW !

LOL

I could hand throw a piece of iron that size, from 10 feet overhead, and if I hit you in the foot, your going to be doing the chicken. Hard to believe.......
