OK, now that actually makes sense. And given the resistance, terminal velocity and deceleration the 30-40 mph speed is not out of line. And given that, at 30-40 mph, while the girl may get a stinger, bruise or perhaps a cut from an object like that, the "hole through the foot" theory goes out the window.

Fair enough.

My post #26 shows the aftermath of a ~20lb iron meteorite striking an automobile. That one would have hurt.

This lady got hit by an 8.5lb iron meteorite, in 1954. It passed through the roof of her house, first. Big time owie.
