Henbury Meteorite Craters 3 main impacts.

A brief view of the main impact craters at the Henbury Meteorite impact structure in the Northern Territory, Australia. Filmed on January 17 1991 . The local people are believed to have witnessed this fall around 5,000 years ago. Their name for the valley of the Henbury or punchbowl craters, "Chindu chinna waru chingi yaku" is meaning roughly "Sun walk fire devil rock.", so this should be considered as a witnessed fall. The area also had a taboo associated with it. There is another video on youtube about the Henbury site that has good pans of most craters and a close up of the information board, at the craters.
