I've done some amateur astronomy, so I'd give my rating for observing experience a 3.5 if I could. I've seen many meteors in my life -- this one was the most spectacular visually and one of the longest lasting.

Looked just like cheap fireworks, with 6 or 7 fragments trailing along the original path and then arcing down before burning out.
