| Name | David L |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving when I saw it, I thought a plane was crashing at first but it seemed too large to be a plane, then I thought maybe a space station or something was crashing. Looked like it fell into the white tank mountains which it was above. |
