The beast Typhon pulverized Zeus on June 30, 1908 at Tunguska in Russia which created the gigantic explosion heard for a thousand miles. Since 1908 the jews have caused non-stop carnage and chaos in order to gain control of the planet's natural resources for their father Typhon. The last 101 calendar years have been the earthly reward bestowed upon the jews for their loyalty to the beast.

PS they also found evidence of radioactivity, and witnesses said that this thing changed directions 2 times in order to avoid populated areas. plus the natives have sickness thats comparable to hiroshima.

some think it was an atomic blast. the description of the blast is similar and trees in the center were left standing, suggesting a blast above from a single point. of course humans werent using atomic weapons yet. so it was probably an alien probe or something of that nature.

object hits athmosphere, object explodes and disintigrates fairly close to earth surface.  massive shock wave flattens trees. thats my theory!

Who knows what fell from the sky that day. It came from space so it could even be something we've never observed before. Likely just a meteor or comet. Earth was hit by millions of objects when it was young.

really... where do you think they got the idea of the map? you think they got bored and made it up. of course they going to research the actually tunguska area. except Verruct and Der Riese. They did all that from books saying that the Nazi's did experiments from the mysterious element. the wunderwaffe is based on a fictional weapon the nazi's were trying to build. it was said the Wunderwaffe was to make a normal human have "Super Hero" like powers. c( =
