The comet/meteor had to land somewhere, why not Tungaska? And in 1908 (and even today), the vast, vast majority of the surface of the earth is not a populated area (70% is water, most of the rest is woods, deserts, fields, and low populated areas).

If it happened somewhere else, then it couldn't be called the Tungaska event now, could it?
