| Name | Jordan L |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I have not ever seen one moving so "slow" or seemingly close. I am not sure if that speaks to it's size or elevation, but it took my brain a moment to digest what I was seeing as this was different and more clear than any I have seen before. had I not been in shock for as long as I was, I would have had it on camera! |
