| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | The info provided is very much a guess as I did not see it directly. It would have been in the south sky, fairly high I'd think. I saw the bright flashes on a security camera monitor, the flashes were reflecting off a BBQ (left of screen) and on the shed at back (top left of video). There is a forest in the backyard and tall bushes to the right of video scene, which is south/south west direction. East/North East would be to the left side of video scene. The object has to have been up in the sky to reflect off the BBQ in this manner. It would be impossible for a ground source light to do this with the trees and tall bushes along property boundaries. The object appears to get brighter and looks almost like its breaking up, when watching the reflections on the BBQ. the video is a 3 x loop. The event starts around 10:14:16pm and ends 10:14:19pm. I'm hoping someone else saw this to confirm if it was a fireball. Wish I had been outside at the time! |
