At least they think it's a meteor. Anybody from the Edmonton area see this thing?

Whoa! Canadian Meteor Video
- Thread starter bassrique

After that episode where one went through some chick's car trunk into her driveway in upstate NY a few years back, I want to see impact photos or I can't get excited.
Sorry, that spoiled me.
Sorry, that spoiled me.
I saw one in Ireland while camping on the Aran Islands one night. Not that "thick" or bright, but it travelled across the entire sky. No fancy explosions. I wonder if anything is audible when one of those breaks up like that in the atmosphere.
It could have.
You know, assuming the meteor broke through reality into an alternate dimension in which fictional characters and places exist...and then traveled half way across the fictional version of Saskatchewan.
I mean, anything is possible.
Last year I saw a bright meteor at twilight that left a vapor contrail that lingered for quite some time afterwards... The setting sun kept it illuminated for a while....
When I was about 10, my best friend form boyhood and I were laying out on our lawn watching the skies during a meteor shower late in the evening in a summer month. At once there was this large thick green streak in the western sky, as big as the one in the video only traveling more horizontally south to north. We heard a long (seemed like about 10 sec) high pitched doppler-effect whistling as it strode through the sky lighting everything around us up light a prolonged bolt of lightning often does. Didn't hear any explosion or anything, but I'll never forget it. Sort of took your breath away.
Didn't see it, but I did see one on my way to work yesterday. Nothing as spectacular as the one in the video but still pretty cool.
