You are missing the largest witnessed fall: Campo del Cielo.
The main mass alone is largest than the tkw of Sikhote-Alin.
Although pre-historic, it fell in a very populated area. It MUST had been
seen by thousands of persons. Although no written documents of the fall
(obviously being prehistoric),
My vote goes for Smallville.
:P

Am wondering what is the largest fall, in terms of kg, ever witnessed? Was it

I wouldn't count this as a witnessed fall since there are no reliable records.
Sikhote is still the winner.

Hi all -
At a certain size you don't get large fragments, but instead end up with
spherules. A list of the very ancient impacts ancient man witnessed but from
which we have no traditions is given in Chapter 2 of my book, Man and Impact in
the Americas.

Hi all -
It was hypothesized originally that the reason no crater(s) were found for the
Holocene start impacts was because it (they) occured over ice. But the new
nano-diamond studies mentioned tree sap as the source for the carbon in the
nano-diamonds.
