Hi Dirk,

Definitely Chelyabinsk. I think all that someone did was mirror image the video
so that
the driver's side of the cars would "appear" to be on the right. --Rob

Substitution/Hoax??? Such videos becoming more a problem.

Hello List,
During my absence there was a video that was purported to be taken in the UK on
15/16FEB2014.?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQipGW5O2Tk ?

?The video appears to me to have been of Chelyabinsk as geometry and behavior of
the fireball are the same and the car license plates appear to be Russian.. ?I
have never seen this clip before so can anyone verify. ?Anyways this is likely a
video of Chelyabinsk taken in a taxi lot somewhere in Russia. I am dubious of
the supposed UK video. Nevertheless, this is a good video of a real event.

Hoax/substitution/faked videos are becoming more and more common. ?Please help
me and others by noting faked videos and if you spot something that appears so,
please let me know offlist. ?Thank you.

It would be fantastic if someone would help me make a catalog of real videos.
Thanks!

Dirk Ross...Tokyo
