|

A football-sized block of ice fell out of the sky on to the roof of an industrial building in Madrid, police say, denting the roof but without causing injuries.
"We don't know where it came from," a police spokeswoman said of the 20 kilogram lump.
"We've taken samples from the block which are in the process of being analysed."
A series of ice blocks fell around Spain in 2000.
Scientists have said the most likely explanation is a sudden freeze in the upper part of the Earth's atmosphere forming ice blocks that then fall into a restricted area. |

I've heard of this happening a lot lately. Is this an alien conspiracy? |

Was the ice blue? I suspect a jet with a faulty port-a-potty high overhead. |

I'm not allowed to disclose the type of ice that falls from the spaceships. But I must remind you, aliens gotta poo to you know! |

I guess it could've been worse. It could've been raining frogs. (how strange is that phenomenon?) |

I saw that on some show and fish as well. It was on all sorts of odd things to do with animals and fish etc. Looked really bizarre. |
