RALEIGH (WTVD) -- A massive wildfire, a really tiny house, peculiar soccer, and a giant meteor are our Must See Videos for Tuesday.

GIANT WILDFIRE

We have some dramatic ground video of a California wildfire that's forced more than a thousand people to evacuate.

The wildfire near Weed, California has damaged or destroyed 100 structures.

Officials say another thousand homes are in danger of burning.

TINY HOUSE

At first glance, you might think a home in Michigan is a playhouse. It's just 102 square feet.

But when you step inside, the home is equipped with all of the daily living essentials.

The project was part of a Michigan College green construction course.

They used only environmentally friendly materials like cedar siding and bamboo flooring. The insulation is made out of recycled blue jean material.

Solar energy powers the tiny house.

BUBBLE SOCCER

A peculiar type of soccer was played in Seattle this weekend.

Bubble soccer is just what it sounds like.

Players are wrapped in an inflatable plastic round suit for the game.

Bubble soccer is relatively new to Seattle, but has been played for a while in other countries.

GIANT METEOR

Observers from New Jersey to Ohio got a super sight Sunday.

A meteor blazed across the sky at a speed of tens of miles per second.

The American Meteorological Society reports it has received almost 200 reports of the fireball.

Scientists say the meteor was 60 to 100 miles above the earth, and about the size of a smart car.
