TBH when it first entered my field of vision it seemed to hooked round on a curve and then start heading in a straight line.. Im not sure if this is an optical illusion but it only straightened up as it passed me. It felt really close I could see sparks coming off the back and it looked like there was pulsing lava at the back of it.

Dunno what this means but at first it whipped into my field of vision really brightly and then after 5-10 seconds it faded and had sparks and stuff coming off it.
