| Remarks | Glowing neon green train, looked kind of fuzzy... orange/yellow fire like stuff underneath... the left part of the big head was glowing orange, and it just seemed to fizzle out; I was so shocked I don\'t really remember exactly how it ended, plus I was driving, I just kind of started going slow to watch it and thought first it was like a plane on fire or something, just when it appeared to hit the building, it fizzled out. |
