Yes, there is at least one well-documented case of a human being struck by a meteorite. On November 30, 1954, in Sylacauga, Alabama, USA, a woman named Ann Hodges was the
Only Human Hit By A Meteorite. The meteorite, weighing about 8.5 pounds (3.8 kg), crashed through the roof of her house, bounced off a large radio, and struck her while she was napping on her couch. The impact left her with a significant bruise on her side but no life-threatening injuries.
This incident is remarkable because such occurrences are extremely rare. While meteorites regularly hit Earth, the chances of one striking a human directly are incredibly low due to the vastness of the planet and the relatively small amount of time humans spend in any one place. Ann Hodges' case is the most famous documented incident of a human being hit by a meteorite.
