Just seen one for as far as I'm aware the first time in my life. Looked like a silent firework at first.
Could have been an alien spacecraft blowing up on entry, or a perfectly logical meteor burning up.
Had a random sad face smiley first try

Was cool, a few broken up in front and I assume the originating bit behind.

Just seen a claim on Facebook that it was an Easyjet plane blowing up. Plane was apparently heading for Italy. If it'd been just the first sentence, it could be possible someone's seen it and posted on Facebook/Twitter etc. but to actually know the planes planned destination so soon, I'm calling shenanigans

Seen a lot of shooting stars. Only ever seen a proper meteor burning up once. Thankfully everyone I was with saw it too otherwise I don't think they'd have believed how mental it was. Lasted for ages.

I didn't realise it was so high, which it must have been if you seen it in Sheffield.
These idiots talking about ufo's would have no clue how fast the object was travelling or in what direction. You have no perspective on it.

I was right though, he admitted making it up after I basically told him I can smell the bullshit from here.
