A 60-ton rock drops out of the sky and hits the ground leaving no crater? Nothing short of miraculous.

Only thing I can think of to explain would be if the area was covered in water or something like silt or sand

Could this be "biology"? Roger from Mudfossil University has some very interesting info. on giant bodies and their parts being strewn all over the world. Sorry if this is old news, I'm a new member and might be stating the obvious....

Roger thinks this is a giants lung::::: check out his video on it.

So a big hunk of metal was found on the site of an iron and steel company.
Any chance it was a quiet news day and the "journalists" had one too many at lunch?

Hah, thanks. I needed a chuckle. And, as much as I laughed, It's just as plausible as anything I can come up with for this thing. Maybe more so.

My initial thought was a memory of throwing heavy things up in the air as high as we could with levers/rubber hoses/etc just to see it land and/or make a little crater (bonus for it breaking something we'd put under it). I think a lot of kids did one way or another. If you were so "in control" that you treated others like ants you might be tempted to haul various chunks of this or that and drop them from very great heights just to mess with the locals.
