  We study the newly released light curve from the fireball of the first
interstellar meteor CNEOS 2014-01-08. The measured velocity and three observed
flares down to an altitude of $18.7 \mathrm{\; km}$ imply ambient ram pressure
in the range of $113-194$ MPa when the meteor disintegrated. The required yield
strength is $\gtrsim 20$ times higher than stony meteorites and $\gtrsim 2$
times larger than iron meteorites. The implied slowdown in the atmosphere
suggests an initial speed of about $66.5 \; {\rm km~s^{-1}}$, strengthening the
case for an interstellar origin of this meteor and making it an outlier
relative to the velocity dispersion of local stars.
