This meteor was somewhat horizontal to the earth plane....I wonder what would have happened if it was vertical...would it have been able to make it to the ground?

That’s the one, 1931; didn’t know about the iridium layer for Tunguska, and it’s a nice detail, I’m going to grab your post text.
Sodom and Gomorrah was probably something besides impact, because in addition to the possible description of a fireball, the entire landscape was altered sometime between their disappearance (or rather, after the tribes departed for Egypt) and the return of the Hebrew tribes. The Jordan River formerly flowed in the Valley of Siddim (the OT explicitly states that what is now the Salt Sea was the Valley of Siddim in the time of Abraham), going north, then bent toward the Med, flowing down the Jezreel. It is now divided by a 600m ridgeline.

Space begins at 100km altitude / 62 miles. Roughing it out, I’d say, maybe — a steeper course through the atmosphere might still lead to disintegration, but the transit through the atmosphere took mere seconds, so...
