Name | Tyler S |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | I feel as if it was really close and crashing. At first I thought it was a plane or something falling because it was going towards the ground and i think it may have hit the ground, but it went past the horizon before i could see where it was hitting. I was inside my girlfriends car in the driver seat and happened to look out of the back passenger window in her Chevy Malibu, and saw the object start in the top left corner of the back passenger window. Then it went almost perfectly diagonal to the bottom right corner of the window. |
