Since November 2007, six meteorites have hit Radivoje Lajic's home in Gornji Lajici, Bosnia. The meteorites always careen into his home whenever it is raining. Lajici's explanation? Angry aliens are bombarding him for some unknown slight.


Lajic spoke to The Telegraph about his run-ins with cosmic vandals:

I am obviously being targeted by extraterrestrials [...] I don't know what I have done to annoy them but there is no other explanation that makes sense [...] The chance of being hit by a meteorite is so small that getting hit six times has to be deliberate [...] They are playing games with me. I don't know why they are doing this. When it rains I can't sleep for worrying about another strike.


To purchase a steel girder to reinforce his home, Lajic sold one of the meteorites to a Dutch university. We can't expect alien mores and intentions to perfectly mirror those of humans, so maybe Lajic unwittingly won some sort of intergalactic lottery or something. Perhaps the meteorites are prize money that beneficent aliens keep shucking at his house.

The whole situation brings to mind this classic Venture Brothers moment. Oh, the mysteries of the universe.
