Firestone said they think the formation created superheated hurricanal winds in the atmosphere that rolled across North America at 400 kilometers per hour (about 249 mph).
Which could explain the flash frozen scenario.

Seems also that those particles would have not only slowed down and burned up some on entry into the earth's atmosphere, but would have riddled EVERTHING. Something traveling with enough force to leave *craters* in a tusk would likely have gone through bodies like bullets; everything, everywhere.
Reruns are great when you haven’t seen the original.
