They estimate that the Russian meteor exploded 12-15 miles up – meaning that the sonic boom didn’t hit for about a minute or 2. Just enough time for a lot of people to run to the windows and exclaim, “What was that?!!”
(Or, “Что это было?”! since they were speaking Russian!)
This explains why there were so many injuries from broken glass!

I watched videos of that. All that flying glass. Scary.
LDL, lucky you. YOU could have been hit.
