| Name | Michael B |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | i thought maybe it was a plane crash or something. i just happened to be looking in the right direction at the right time. it went straight down and was right above tree level at start and then right behind light branch cover. tough to judge the brightness, i would compare it to a lightning bolt. it seemed like it was metallic or mechanical with it being silvery and i thought a bit reflective, then red in color. but very quick, less then second and very fast. out stretched hand, length was 3-4 knuckles. i\'m sure nobody saw it, you had to be looking right at it at the right time. Thanks |
