In episode seven of 5 Minute Mysteries, we investigate the Tunguska Event, a massive explosion that flattened over 2,000 square kilometres of remote Siberian forest in 1908. The cause of the blast remains one of the greatest scientific puzzles of the 20th century. Was it a meteor, a comet, or something more extraordinary? With no impact crater and a host of strange theories, the Tunguska Event continues to baffle researchers. Join us as we delve into the mystery of this powerful and mysterious event.
