"Where's the KABOOM? There was supposed to be an Earth shattering KaBOOM..." -Marvin the Martian.

I saw this meteor come into the atmosphere, at first I thought it was a formation of helicopters but realized after it was this meteor breaking up, I remember there were 2 pieces that broke off and looked to me like helicopters because of the slow drop. But the trails kept going off the meteors and realized it was such an amazing sight to watch a falling star break up into pieces. I'll never forget it.

Great camera work. One of the best footages of satellite reentry ever.

No it doesn't because this footage is from 2016 and space shuttle program is pver since 2011. But it is certainly an artificial satellite because of the meteor's speed

Ian, best footage yet. Send it in so everyone can see.

So glad someone got this! Was too stunned to get my camera out in time. We were laying on our backs at Glacier Point watching stars when it happened.

Best marketing for the a7S that you could ever imagine!

I had just gotten out of my sleeping bag for a whizz, camping at about 9500 feet in Kings Canyon Park, about 30 miles northwest of where this video was taken. I happened to look over my left shoulder to the west and thought, "wow, Mars is really bright tonight! Wait, it's getting brighter!" I must have caught it just as it entered the atmosphere and started to glow. When it was directly overhead, it was still a single fireball, with just some small debris breaking off and glowing red. Glad to know this poster heard the boom too, I didn't see any reports of that on the news stories. Sonic boom?

I'm just Under Auburn, you got the best footage yet. Great job.

I saw this while camping in the mountains and didn't get a video - sop glad someone else did. Thanks for posting.

Best footage I've seen so far!

Gorgeous video. I filmed it myself but was nowhere near that close. Thanks for the upload!

So glad you caught this on video!! It happened so fast last night.

Man, phenomenal footage. Thanks for sharing!

I also witnessed this while camping at 9000ft in Seavey Pass during a backpacking trip of the High Sierra section of the PCT. I didn't have a camera handy, so thank you for capturing the event. It was really amazing to watch from high in the mountains!

Can you describe its appearance, and motion? I'm a retired 'rocket scientist' with a hobby of documenting satellite reentry appearances.

I was driving down from Tioga Pass towards Lee Vining and this flew right over my head. It might be the craziest thing I've ever seen.

From China with love😚

By far the best footage I can find.

Great work. Well done on such an excellent video. Beautiful view.

Wonderful catch, well done, thanks for sharing!

I saw that last night!!! I was trying to record it but my phone said "can't film, not enough storage" I was so mad! Got it on my cars dash cam :) Thank god you guys got it!! :P

Amazing good quality. thank you!

Amazing footage! Saw this on the news this morning! ✨

One of the best videos I've seen yet!!

Damn best footage I've seen so far.

Excellent timing, and capture 🌠💯👌

Could you imagine having a great nightscape composition in that direction with the re-entry coming in over the top? That pic will hang over your bed for the rest of your life...

Wow, beautiful! Never seen before!

Wow. How glad are you that you shelled out for the A7S now :) Once in a lifetime event for sure.

Amazing. I commend you on your video-ability to hold the camera still. Very good recording. Thanks for sharing it.

Thanks for posting this video! I saw this flying over Sacramento while I was out walking the dog. It was amazing!

Can you describe what shape you perceived, and how far away you thought it might be? How was it moving across the sky?

The best footage I've seen so far...steady hand...a rare trait these days. I watched it with binoculars from Greenwood Ca. and was amazed how slow and how bright all the debris (?)...whatever it was really split up and burned bright...had a tail liken to a huge golden fireworks display. I thought it was a plane breaking up as it didn't look like a fireball, round shape... it looked oblong as it separated. I thought it was going to hit the Sierra Nevada Mtns...LIKE 209

I saw that too..so clear and your footage is clear.

Yea we saw it from Reno in the Southern sky from West to East... impressive. Thanks for video from the south of it. Our view was from the North of it. As it goes over those hills in your video we live on the other side and saw it less bright, more orange and trailing smoke... thought it was a Airliner on fire at first. Must have gone over the top of Yosemite...May have landed (if it did) in Utah.

Awesome! I was in the Sierras backpacking at the time this happened and got a little video of it. The sonic boom was amazing too!

thanks for this. I saw it as it entered the atmosphere, green for a good 5 seconds. then I saw it break apart, it was like looking inside of an exploding planet. a big rock. it had to be 1000 feet in diameter. maybe bigger. gasses and dust surrounded it. truly amazing. I heard no sound but I was watching Wayward pines

I’m pretty sure this is what I saw 4 years ago from the roof of my house. Absolutely awesome.

Thanks for sharing!

Best vid of the even I've seen BY FAR. Well done.

ITS ALIENS!!! You caught the perfect best HD video, that's exactly how we saw it In Santa Clarita, CA.

awesome! glad you caught it

Must have been amazing to see! Wow!

excellent footage. well done.

yup, we saw it even out here in San Jose with the bright lights of the city.

Awesome capture! I wish some of this stuff would happen when I'm out in the Mojave or Death Valley. I need to go camping out there more often.

Really nice catch. Good work!

GREAT CATCH !!!!,,,nice,,,thanx for the share.....

I saw it from Idaho, was spectacular to witness it. Maybe a once in a lifetime event?

I remember seeing one back in 2016 over the central valley a few months before this one. I was traveling back home from a track meet and it surprised me as I didn't recognize it as a plane or a meteor. It was a surreal experience.

Saw this while driving to Vegas from Palmdale, California. It was right above it, basically, we were stuck in traffic because of a semi truck accident.

that's pretty amazing.. must have been a real buzz to witness.

I saw it from Riverside County, CA. About 250 miles to the south. I even called out the general area pretty friggin accurately when I estimated it to be over Death Valley. You're the closest video I've seen yet, and Alabama Hills is pretty close to the area I guesstimated. It looks like it may have been a smidge north of you, maybe between Independence and Bishop.

I thought it split also. But now i think the two flares were boosters firing up. Right over my head, it slowly lumbered so low and completely silent, i was certain it would hit the foothills. I could see embers blowing off spots on the bottom with my naked eye! Thats how low.. Next day i read it crashed in f'n Utah. Anyway it did light up and like u i thought it split. But it went up and over not only the food hills but over that Sierra Nevada Mountains! So i think it fired up something to make it up and over. And if u watch with that in mind, it does ascend and descend. Love this vid.

Nice shot. Do you mind if we embed this video on our site? We'll give this account full credit. I work for a small Spanish newspaper in Miami. Let me know!

camacho2. Me 2. How high would you say? Seemed helicopter or landing plane hight. Obviously not that, but i was so low i couldnt see the sides. Only the bottom.

Great Camera work -

wow! small world! I went to the main page of liveleak, clicked a video, went to the first comment, clicked on the youtube video in the comments, went to your page, and realized i was already subscribed to you.... Trippy!! 7 billion people on earth, tons of youtube accounts, but i was already subscribed to you! kinda blew my mind actually, super unlikely, but that just happened! :) WOW! small world! Have a beautiful day Ian! Great capture! :)

That's an awesome record.

Nice capture!!!! Sony A7s did good wow!!!

Ein sehr eindrückliches schönes Video. lg Julian

wow.. awesome video

The intro reminded me of Back To The Future when Marty is filming Doc in the mall parking lot

Amazing!

The boom you heard was the junk breaking the sound barrier. When it eventually has enough atmosphere medium the sound barrier breaking can be heard.

Notice the trajectory at the beginning of your vid!..... I also saw and filmed it. Even called the police because it was so low I was sure it would go down in the Sierra foothills. My view was from directly below. Imagine my surprise when it lumbered over me completely silent at helicopter patrol altitude. The huge rectangular object had ember like spots randomly covering the bottom which is what you captured very well. When it neared the foothills, it lit up as if it had split in two. But since i read it ended up in f'n Utah! Now i think it fired up something to clear the Sierras..... i also listen to the Fresno Airport ground to tower archive because it cut across the runway approach. And yes then discuss it. Anyway the official data accounts don't match my sighting... location, size, speed, altitude. Yet clearly the coverage is about the same siting. seems like the info could be easily verified. I look forward to uodates

Pretty awesome!

Nice catch!

Finally I found the video. I’ll never forget this day. I was in my cousin room sitting with her in the dark. I look out the window didn’t see anything I look back 5 secs later I see this fireball heading towards the window but it was moving slow. We screamed and panicked. Everyone and the neighbors came outside to see then it disappeared. Their dog bit my leg cause we were screaming thinking we were arguing😂😂😂. Now I have a scar. This scar will always hold that memory. I litterally called my mom crying thinking the world was going to end😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 the fireball look like it was having a face to face staring contest. That happened in Sacramento California.

literally found a hill got out and started smoking and then we saw this shit start going across. i heard if it breaks up like that its usually never a meteor but you guys had a badass view of it

Saw it up in the Utah mountains. Erie as hell.

WOW! I missed the one this morning... So I was left to have uit explained to me...

Authorities in the Western United States received dozens of calls Wednesday night and Social Media was a buzz after a long-lasting fireball streaked through the night skies from California to Utah. Data from the Joint Space Operations Center confirmed the event was caused by the fiery re-entry of a Chinese rocket stage that had spent one month in orbit. California residents reported seeing the bright object in the skies at 9:36 p.m. local time on Wednesday, 4:36 UTC Thursday and described the event as a slow-moving fireball breaking up in the sky. Videos of the event show the typical characteristics of the re-entry of a man-made object - moving much slower than any natural meteor and breaking up into individual fragments.

nice shot. thanks

epic quality!! when it made its way to salt lake Utah, it wasn't that big.

where did it land

Very nice!

IDK... the distance between fragments never changes. On most space junk videos the pieces clearly separate as the lighter pieces lag behind, spread out, and burn out quicker than the heavier. Yes the orientation & perspective change, but the relative distance between debris pieces appears constant, as does the vapor/smoke/ionization? trail.

This video is incredible proof of the curvature of the Earth.

Awesome 👍👍👍
