| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was a total accident. I was inspecting my newly replaced car windshield when, as it should happen, the most spectacular celestial event of my life took place. As soon as it ended, I phoned my husband to tell him that superman was real, and I just him flying! I have a deeper appreciation for why a bug is drawn to the bright light now. |
