One of the strangest events to have happened recently in connection with extraterrestrial objects is the impact site or crater made by a meteorite that crashed in Peru. It has left a huge crater that filled with water and released noxious fumes that sickened the people of a nearby village. It almost seems like a science-fiction movie, but it's real and is now making the area a tourist attraction, in spite of the effects of the crater. View the videos that follow.
