| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was very bright and quite spectacular, with noticeable flames. It disappeared below the roofline of the store towards which I was walking. I almost thought it might be a plane about to crash, and waited to hear if there would be an explosion, but did not. |
