[meteorite-list] Fw: Video 5 of SLP, MX Bolide now posted! Another spectacular video.

[Jim Wooddell]

Hi all!

I did some quick shadow comparson on the video.  The sun was extremely 
high.....maybe within 7 degrees of vertical.  Anyone else???
The video I posted should the subject sweeping the sun which confirms it 
was extremely high in the sky.
I would tend to this that video was not faked.....if it was the same 
event.  But for some reason, which does not suprize me, the 5 pm time is 
WAY OFF if that is the local time given!  Thus the reason to us 
Universal Standard Time.  Sigh...

Jim
