I agree Darryl, but only if you assume that he saw the fireball hit the
water. Which the report does not say.
In fact the report states "...he didn't hear the boom, only a whistling
roar as the object flew past..." which tells me the object was NOT
traveling at super sonic speeds or high enough speed to be incandescent.
It does NOT say a fireball hit the water.

so, Chris, is it "not a chance" or "he saw the fireball drop below

Kind of confusing...<<
I think this guy only had 3 chances of being able to see a meteor
hit close
by in the water, at a speed it should be traveling to keep
incandescence
present and without any sonic booms...Fat, None and no Chance. :O)
