  Yes, thank you! Overlaying the two, that is indeed awfully close to at least one end: https://snipboard.io/ADVdcO.jpg https://snipboard.io/ADVdcO.jpg What puzzles me is that the other end is so far off that it's outside what I had previously screenshotted of the map (so not visible when intersecting the two). From my POV, the angle difference between start and end was close to zero, like it came fairly straight down. That would be in line with yours if it roughly came towards me, as it roughly indeed did afaict, but I don't think the Brighton pier video had that wide a range. (I should re-watch it to be sure, though.) There are also various reported angles on this event page https://ams.imo.net/members/imo_view/event/2023/937 https://ams.imo.net/members/imo_view/event/2023/937 but half of those honestly look in line with what I previously noticed where a video might have a description "facing east from Jersey" which would mean Paris is in the ~center of their view, not the English channel in front of Dieppe, resulting (because no visible landmarks) in lines like these horizontal/vertical ones <https://snipboard.io/d3rkNI.jpg https://snipboard.io/d3rkNI.jpg>. Compared to all that, your report is definitely more useful! It would seem the meteor traveled at least 30 if not 50 km in those ~five seconds!
