| Name | Greg T |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I'm 64 years old, and never saw anything like this. Driving from Carrolton TX approaching DFW area on 121 at 10 at night... in front of me a green blazing streak angled down, I saw it for a long 5 seconds then it was gone. I thought it was going to be something big, but fortunately not I guess. |
