In Summer 2009 my brother, a few friends and me was at the skateplace near the Dutch and Belgish border to skate and bike .(The place behind the basketball place with coordinates: 50º 55'6.37"N 6º 6'28.59"E)Then we saw many fireballs at the west sky.They was very big and near so i am sure, that they was under our atmosphere and they was no comets.The bright balls were very quick and flew from north-west to south-west.We was watching them a while but then we went home cause at this time i was 15 years old and it was late.It would be very interesting, when somebody have an explanation.
