| Name | Mark H |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | This object seemed very close, big and travelling to the ground, but disappeared behind bushes. It looked like it was on fire and had a long fire trail. I was driving with windows up and radio on so I didnt hear anything and it disappeared before I could react. I have seen meteors before but nothing as big as this, I was shocked. |
