| Name | Lindsay W |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | This was like nothing i had ever witnessed. I've seen many shooting stars as well as fireworks and this was beyond anything I had ever seen. It felt so close, possibly just because of the immense size but the trail that it left and the extreme brightness and disintegration left me shocked and unable to believe that it was any type of man made firework. |
