HOLY SHIT THAT'S AN AWESOME METEOR

"A spectacular and almost blindingly bright meteor sparked a flurry of emergency calls to the police after it lit up the skies over western Canada.

Onlookers across the province of Alberta watched in awe, describing a kaleidoscope of colours as the rock rapidly descended.

'At first I thought it was fireworks,' farmer Marcel Gobeil said.

'I've never seen anything like it; it was green and blue and then turned to bright red. It was pretty big.'" (source)

Check out the video below taken from a police cruiser's dashcam. Can you imagine suddenly seeing that in the sky in front of you?
