Name | Will R |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | It was awesome! I had time to point at it while it was still falling, Probably right around 2 seconds total time. After, when I looked over at another woman on the train platform, she was also pointing. "Did you see that too?" I asked, and she confirmed she had seen it. |

Remarks | At one point it became brighter and then dimmer again, toward the end but not rift at the end of its fall. I don't know if this is a terminal flash but I interpreted it as something breaking apart. |
