This is great video (to my untrained eyes at least), whatever it really is

Can anyone recognize the area, know any more about anything?
BTW some of the comments there are clever, but here are my criticisms:
"This is a Skip-Bomb
This is a Skip-Bomb experiment, developed decades ago to bounce one or more
times before going off on a predetermined impact. The idea was to bounce
these into enemy dams, so as to get a more effective horizontal trajectory
instead of just being dropped from the top. Never made it past the
development stage. I myself have had a plain, daylight sighting of a very
large, clearly other-worldy UFO, so I'm not down on UFO's, it's just that
this object is known to not be of ET origin."
Clever try, but why would a skip bomb be glowing white like that during
descent? That doesn't make sense, even after a first bounce. And painted
white still wouldn't be bright enough.
"Awfully small for an other-worldly craft, isn't it?
If you pause the video as it passes the poles, you can see that is passing
in front of the poles. This would make it approximatly 1 foot in diameter. I
guess it could be "really little green men"."
I think that impression, which I could find sometimes while clumsily
stopping frames in mid play, is instead an effect of luminosity bloom
against a narrow
darker line. Clearly the object hits the ground much farther away than the
telephone poles. BTW, how can you advance literally one frame at a time on
this video program?
Oddly I didn't see much on news/internet about this. It was one of the
random shocker videos highlighted on Drudge.
I noticed playing it slowly that the apparent object and apparent
fragments of the apparent explosion appears in front of the telephone
poles even though it apparently hits the ground further in the
background. Apparently a complete fake.
