| Name | Debra W |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | At first I thought it was a plane. Looked like bright lights on front if a plane, but moving alot faster. Then I saw the fire, thought a plane had caught fire, and was about to crash. It wasn't until it fell closer, that I realized it was a shooting star or something from the atmosphere. |
