I guess the people that made this didnt have a single FUCKING physics lesson in their life. Holy fuck that was bad from a reality point of view. The biggest problem here is that when the rock hits the impact is felt on the opposite side of the earth as well so there would be a transmission of power just like a wave coming on the opposite side of the Earth when the giant rock hits. In this video the giant fireball races around the earth to consume the last little bit of Earth on the opposite side of the planet which seems perfectly normal. Stupid animators, oh and cause this is Asian I am sure that the rock would have taken a shit on planet Earths doorstep or possibly on its face.
That's partially true. If a meteor that big slammed into Earth, not only would the force transfer through the planet and rupture the surface on the opposite side, but the impact site would create a hyperbolic effect in which both sides of the planet would experience the demonstrated shockwave.
Also, the planet would not survive in any way, shape or form, from such a massive impact. Anyone who's been to the Meteor Crater in Arizona knows how much damage meteors can cause. The one that struck here in Arizona was about 150 feet across, weighed several thousand tons, and is estimated to have struck the earth at 40,000 mph. In case you were wondering, the crater it left was 700 feet deep, is over 4,000 feet across (2.3 miles in circumference), and it blanketed the surrounding desert area in 170 million tons of limestone and sandstone. (This is not the site I used for reference, but it's for the attraction: http://www.meteorcrater.com/)
So let's assume a meteor that large crashed into the Earth. Given that's it's roughly larger than the entirity of Mexico (you can see it when it flies over) I'd say that it would crack the earth right in half and likely explode. I can only imagine the resulting chaos that a sudden planetary collapse would cause on our solar system...
Either way, if a meteor that big hits Earth, we're fucked.
Did anybody else almost audibly say "bullshit" when they saw the palm trees and roman structures still standing after that fiery shockwave? This isn't a very good simulation.
Funny enough those same Asians who didnt understand physics also discovered that there is still more water beneath the earths crust than ontop, no I dont mean more fresh water than fresh water on the surface, but subterrean fresh water that comes close to dwarfing the amount of water in our oceans. In fact the part of the world that you would consider crackable is a series of plates that are more than likely held together by this cool force we have all come to know about called gravity.
I can't remember where I read it, but I recall a scientist saying that a large meteor would do less damage to this earth than if for some strange reason our Earth's angle of rotation was changed even a whole degree.
That looked more like a moon. I always wonder if such a large object came near the earth, if there's a chance it might start orbiting the earth, and we'd have a second moon!
reminds me off FF but i think if a meteore that big came near earth and our gravitaional feild could make it orbit around earth it wouls just blow this rock to peices not enflame it .. it would just shatter or get knocked out of this gravitational possition and we would all just drop endlesly (o_0)
Scientists say that the biggest meteor to ever hit the earth was about as big as Mt Everest. Devastating but not nearly as bad as the event shown in the crappy animation. That was a meteor as big as the moon. The biggest meteor nearish earth is not anywhere that big.
Yeh, that was wayyy too big. Moon sized like some of you said. It would have to be smaller to have THAT effect - the magma spewing up and all around the world, cuz that big WOULD probally crack it...I wonder how much force it would take to crack the Earth. Who wants to help me find out? :D...here's what we do, we get that chick that looks like an elephant from the other video and drop her from an air plane haha
erm..is it possible for the earth to have two moons? That would totally fuck up the tides..wonder if the other gravitation would cause the Earth to slide off-kilter from it's rotation.
maybe im wrong here... but it looked kind of like it was the moon or something that hit it.... it wasnt moving 'fast' so that would lead me to think the moon or something like that

You all suck. When you have this much energy things turn to gasses (or liquids under high pressure) so you wouldn't get "cracking."
This is how most moons are formed. It's like a slow motion film of a water drop falling into water and the displaced water rushes back and forms another drop going upwards for a split second. With planets though the drop (moon) formed would be on the other side of the impact and it would "float"/orbit instead of coming back to earth.
Wasn't moving fast?! It looked slow because of it's size. It looked to be going at least 25k km/h. I did a little ruff math on that so I'm not totally off.
Yea there is no way in hell the earth would survive this actualy all that would be left are pieces of it. The impact would cause to effects like some of you have stated the opposite sid would feel the same amount of force and with a meteor that big most like crack apart and since the meteor is that big the hole in the atmospher it would creat would be so devastating that it would cause a vacum effect pulling large amounts of are atmosphere into space and with that happen and the focre on the opposite side will creat so much force and put some much strain on the earth that the core will become unstable and just blow up .
Like others have said, if the earth was hit by something THAT big the entire fucking plant would probably break apart. Hell something that big probably would have enough gratitational force to start pulling shit and people off as it started getting closer and closer.
^ actually no it wouldnt, its much smaller than earth therefore having a weaker gravitational pull... if anything other than whats showed, being hit by that would send earth out of orbit and probably send us further away from the sun causing us to all freeze to death in extreme negative temperatures
Comments to Cool CGI of meteor hitting Earth
so? your suicidal?
So the little child is tired of living. Bad world. Everybody against him/her. Why dont you get a gun and kill yourself? Bitch
Um... those two comments have what to do with a poorly envisioned apocalypse?
Estuas interius
Ira veh ementi-
Estuas interius
Ira veh ementi-
SEPHIROTH!...
SEPHIROTH!...
(Never actually played that game all the way thru... But I do know what happens) :P
really tho? wtf were they talkn about? either way was kinda kewl, too dam long tho
The commentator bitch sounds so happy about it...

Yeah but it was fun...
You gotta know the universe would breath a sigh of relief if that happened tho...

funny how idiots analyze a stupid video over the internet
Enlighten us baltimore80.

ohh so thats how the death star was made...

can't*
No, you were right the first time Sevym.

The circumference of giant rocks with the smashing and the crushing HOYVEN MAYVEN!!!
We should just shoot it with the "De-Bigulater". Crisis averted.
Ben Affleck and Bruce Willis will save us
Psshhhh I could do that.

@ buqmenot. damn you, i wanted to say that.
could be a new ad campaign for a religious group: REPENT ALL YE SINNERS! ARMAGEDDON IS NIGH!
I bet all the other planets were cracking open a bottle of champagne.
