Remarks I did not personally witness this fireball but captured it on a Sky Cam in the backyard. The fireball appears to be straight up and down. It lit up the backyard and you can see reflection in the pool (2nd video)
Fragmentation

Remarks It appears the initial explosion is just out of frame, but if you look at very first individual frames within the video enlarged, fragments are clearly visible. Then you had two large parts.
