Man Finds Meteorite Worth Over $100k in Field
A search that’s been going on for over a year and a half by a man from North Wales has finally come to an end. After witnessing a meteorite fall near his home, Tony Whilding located it in a nearby field.
One night when Whilding was having a late night smoke, he saw a low flying giant ball of fire go shooting past his home. It was so low that he could have kicked a ball up into the air and likely made contact with it.

It eventually fizzled out leaving only smoke trails and not evening making a sound when it struck the earth. He immediately wanted to track it down and see if it was worth anything,
Well he successfully found it in a farmers field near his home after 18 months of searching! He had it examined and learned that this big rock from space is actually worth over $130,000!
