| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Andre Z |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I watched from inside my house through a closed window. Clear weather conditions. I looked west. The fireball went from north to south, horizontal. Nearly no loss of altitude from this perspective. Date and time is accurate, since I have a recorded messenger conversation about it. I don't know any other witness. First time i saw a ball that big. When I stretch out my arm it was around the size of the finger nail of the little finger. It was slow compared to what I see with meteor showers. |

| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | I cannot remember, but I think there was a short bright flash and then it was 2 or 3 fragments, trajectory slightly down below the 22° from former horizontal flight of the fireball. I didn't saw the entry because I happend to look outside a window and it was already there. |
