| Name | Adam R |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I caught this fireball while I was driving. I was heading home from work North of Waterloo area to my home in Hamilton. I was driving East on HWY 85 between King and just approaching Lexington when I saw a quick flash of light to the upper left of my view. It happened very fast and I have the original video file from my ThinkWare F50 dashcam, as well as I enhanced the lighting as was able see it just a bit longer than what it showed before, but only maybe 0.5 seconds to 1.0 seconds now. |
