It was one of the most remarkable things I've ever been lucky enough to see.

Remarks
It's hard to describe. As I looked up if I was to stretch my arm out and hold a finger out. It was similar length to my finger. Hopefully that makes sense. I can't recall how long the trail lasted must have been a matter of 1-2 seconds (the fireball itself lasted about 4). I never saw it burnout as it went out of sight behind the trees.
