| Name | Jannell G |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | When the fire ball entered my field of vision, it seemed like I saw a flash of light which made me zero in on the fireball. It was Blue-green, like the flame on a gas stove. It traveled super fast and left a white glowing tail behind it. It only lasted a few seconds then it just seemed to disappear and the tail sort of faded like smoke. What surprised me the most was the color, have never seen anything in the sky that color. |
