In a remarkable event captured on home security footage, a meteorite crashed onto the driveway of a Canadian couple's home, marking the first time both the visual and audio of such an impact have been recorded.

A camera in Canada captured the moment a meteorite struck the sidewalk in front of a house. The owner, Joe Velaidum, narrowly avoided tragedy. Scientists emphasize that it's a unique recording. Joe Velaidum from Marshfield,

Herd discovered that the sample was chondrite, the most common type of space rock that strikes Earth, and that it likely originated from the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. The footage is believed to be the first time that both sound and visuals of a meteorite strike have ever been recorded. Herd told CBC News

A meteorite crash-landed on his home’s walkway. Hoping to confirm what he saw on his camera, Velaidum sent his home security video and pictures to Chris Herd, an expert in meteorites at the University of Alberta. Herd confirmed that it was indeed a meteorite and that it was a history-making moment.

A home security camera captured the rare event. The homeowner narrowly escaped getting hit. “It probably would’ve ripped me in half.”

This is the first time the sound of a meteorite hitting Earth has been recorded, the University of Alberta said.

The researcher says the meteorite likely broke off from an asteroid between Mars and Jupiter. We often see them speed across our. Skies, but in Canada, only about 70 meteorites have been recovered.
