I meant to post this yesterday but got distracted and forgot about it.
In my Sims 3 game, one of my horses was randomly hit by a meteor while it was minding its own business sleeping in a box stall.
In the first image here, you can see the smoking crater where the stall used to be. It was identical to the one next to it (which was also ruined and had to be replaced too, but not completely annihilated like the one at ground zero was). As you can see, the horse is fine. The blonde in the black dress standing in front of the horse is Honey Darnell who currently lives with my own custom Sim (who is currently in the house, cowering in front of the refrigerator, though he's a bit hard to see). There are also some neighbors outside the fence. They ran over to watch, just before the meteor hit.
At this point, I unpaused the game, thinking that was pretty much it. It wasn't. A few seconds later, almost everything within a small radius around the impact strike exploded or was otherwise rendered broken and unusable. Both of my human Sims were caught in the blast. The horse that was the target of the meteor just moseyed away, heading over to eat some hay like it ain't a thang to be hit by a meteor at all.
Here we see that Honey has been "singed" in the explosions. My own Sim somehow managed to escape this fate, even though he was right smack in the middle of the explosions. However, he's standing next to a raging inferno now, so he won't be so lucky for long.
This is the final aftermath, after they managed to get the fires put out (by themselves, mind you, since the firefighter didn't show up until several seconds after that last shot). Both of them were singed now, and everything along the wall in the kitchen was a complete wreck and had to be replaced.
Amazingly, I somehow didn't lose any Sims to this experience. The meteor impact itself was a pretty huge thing. Here's a video of what a meteor strike looks like. Oddly, there weren't any meteor fragments left behind by the strike, and there certainly wasn't a giant one sitting in the crater. There was a lot of scrap left behind from where things had exploded, though.
