Am I the only one who finds it *more* scary that this wasn’t part of the asteroid that’s flying over today? I mean, how many other potentially deadly asteroids or meteorites are out there barreling towards us right now that no one knows about?

Apparently injury fraud–where someone would purposely walk in front of a car and get struck and sue–was so common in Russia that it became standard for drivers to place dashcams on their cars to refute such claims.

It was so funny that the first guy filming in the top video’s only response to a meteorite heading towards him was, “weird…” Yeah, that’s what anyone would say, right?

The world would be a darker place without Russian dash-cams… Will be nice when it catches on in the rest of the world.

Nah, a lot of Russian cars have cameras in them. They’re not sat there with their camera phones out. http://www.businessinsider.com/why-russian-drivers-have-dash-cams-2012-12

What’s even MORE scary is that these people are filming the road whilst DRIVING.
