| Name | Jodi H |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This was unlike anything I\'ve ever seen. It looked like an enormous fireball falling to earth. I thought at first it could be a plane, I thought \"Oh my God!\" I started screaming at my husband who saw the tail end of it. This left me shaking and now several hours later, I cannot stop thinking about it. |
