This clearly was a failed missile launch. I suggest that the Russians are teaming with North Korean to launch long range nukes at the USA. The twin columns of smoke indicate it had two thruster rockets to extend its range. The delayed explosion was the missile being self destructed over the horizon.
And....
Let the conspiracy theorists rant begin! |

Likely it had some parts broken or burnt off and trailing behind for the other smaller sonic booms
Wiki speed of sound
and why aircraft can make double booms

Here's the actual video I submitted with the car alarms going off and windows breaking.
Not only did fancylad add "massive asteroid known as 2012 DA14" to my description, but he didn't even post the right f*cking video, hahaha!!!
What a sonic boom sounds like varies depending on the altitude and what's surrounding you when you hear it. In a populated area with buildings it will echo off the buildings breaking windows and setting off car alarms like it did here but they sound totally different if you're in an open field or the ocean on a ship. |

A mix of sonic boom and explosion BOOM eh?
It was really far away for that much time between the flash and the bang, a BIG ka-boom indeed! |

That was a sonic boom? I heard one when I was a kid and I remember it being a much lower-tone sound and only once. |

Just for the record, the link description I submitted was "Sonic boom sets off car alarms and scares the crap out of the camera man!" Someone else decided to add "from the asteroid known as 2012 DA14." This isn't 2012 DA14, which is passing by around 3pm EST I think, this is something else they never saw coming. Thanks for f*cking up the link description and trying to make me look like an idiot fancylad. I guess that's why you make the big bucks, huh? |

This was NOT 2012DA14. At all. It was not associated with 2012DA14, has nothing to do with 2012DA14, and should not in any way be confused with 2012DA14.

This wasn't 2012 DA14. It was an unrelated meteor. |

This was NOT 2012 DA14.. that one is coming to earth later today and is known..
what crashed into the atmosphere here was an unknown asteroid that had no designation. We only know about 10% of objects that may cross the earth's path. |

This thing was large enough to have been spotted in (I assume) 2012, and no one knew it was coming? No one was warned? Seriously? |
