That's surprising that there would be a record in 1933. I figured new
technology, rising populations, and an increase in meteorite hunters would
mean that there were more witnessed falls more recently than 90 years ago.
Have the number of witnessed falls per year tended to be significantly
higher
In addition to the 17 witnessed falls worldwide for 1933, that year also had
two others that are possible falls, Elton, Texas and Willard (b) New Mexico.
Cheers,
Frank

Hi Listees,
I was recently wondering, what year has the most confirmed witnessed falls?
I have been closely following falls since the year 2000, and according
to my records we have a few contenders in recent years. I am thinking
one of these must be the most.
2018 has 15 falls, but two of them
7 matches
