There are much less "really large" meteors than small ones. However, Earth has been hit in the past by such meteors, and it is likely that it will be hit again at some moment. For example, about 65 million years ago, a meteor impact resulted in the elimination of dinosaurs (and in fact of many species).

Why does the falling stars dont reach the ground?
"Falling stars" are actually meteors - small pieces of rock floating in space that get sucked in by Earth's gravity and begging falling toward Earth. When meteors enter the atmosphere (at tremendous speeds), they immediately encounter friction with the air. This friction causes them to heat up and burn, which creates the trail of light that we see. Most meteors are small enough that they are COMPLETELY burned up long before they reach the surface.
