| Name | Jodene J |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | This was the biggest and clearest I have ever seen. It was absolutely amazing. Given the size I did expect to hear a boom, but nothing. The direction I was facing the fireball disappeared behind hill side of wainuiomata cost. Can you please contact me if you find any images or anything in relation. I did google it, there were atleast 2 ships on the water (could tell by their lights) that must have seen this too. |
