Aliens Target Bosnian Man By Chucking Space Rocks?


Really?

No, I don't believe this for a second. Although, I am thoroughly amused and sort of impressed with Radivoje Lajic's creativity. Scientists at Belgrade University confirmed that Lajic has handed over five authentic meteorites since 2007. Each space rock, according to Lajic, came plummeting from the sky during rainstorms.

Lajic's explanation: '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... I have no doubt I am being targeted by aliens,' he adds. '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.'



Apparently Belgrade University buys this guy's story though (not the alien part, but rather the space rocks hitting his house part) and they are currently trying to figure out what makes his home a hotspot for falling meteorites.

Lajic, who is fifty years old and lives in the village of Gornji Lajici, installed a steel girder reinforcement roof oon the house to protect from those pesky alien pranksters - which he funded by selling one of his rocks to a university in the Netherlands.
