A resident of Altai supported the wheel with a meteorite for 20 years.

A driver picked up a 16.5 kg cobblestone in a crossing in 2005 and for some reason brought it home. The object could not be sold or valued, so it became a car stop.

But one day the stone fell into the hands of a collector. After a geological analysis it became clear that the cobblestone belongs to the same H5 group chondrites as the Chelyabinsk and Novosibirsk meteorites.

The body fell to earth at least a few hundred years ago.

Then, in 2013, a stop for KAMAZ just fell from the sky.
