Observer
Name	VICTOR C
Experience Level	1/5
Remarks	IT WAS BRIGHT ENOUGH THAT IT LIT EVERYTHING AROUND ME ON 35N. BRIGHTEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE...COMPARED TO YOUTUBE VIDEO OF GUY ON 635 AND LAPRADA...I WAS APPROX 50 MILES FROM HIS LOCATION. THE METEOR WAS TO MY WEST IN WHAT APPEARED TO ME TO BE APPROX 15-25 MILES FROM ME. EXTREMELY BRIGHT AND SAW FIRE BALL TRAIL BEHIND IT THAT LASTED A SEC OR UNDER. AMAZING.....FEEL FREE TO CALL IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
