| Name | Bradley J |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | The fireball came into site with little to no build up, grew very large and bright, then started to die at a much faster and increasing rate then vanished. Not only was the brightness of the fireball outstanding, the size was unbelievable. The fireball took up approximately 1/3 the space in the sky that the average full moon does. |
