| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I thought it was an airplane crash. Then I thought it was a firework since it seemed like it was very near to where I was. This was my first time to see a huge ball of fire that fell from the sky. I saw falling stars many times, but they are tiny, far and the colour is white. This was huge and the colours were orange and red. I guess I was lucky that night to witness this incident. It just happened on my way home from the airport to pick up my husband. Amazing experience! Glad to share this to everyone. I wish I was able to take a picture, but I was driving. |
