A video showing what appears to be a meteor flying over England has emerged on social media.
The video, filmed in Birmingham, shows what looks like a shooting star flying across the night sky as it lights up the street for a split second.
Filmed on a doorbell camera, John Stew from Birmingham shared the footage on social media platform X, writing: “Think I just caught a meteor”.
Others have also claimed to have witnessed the phenomenon in locations across the UK, including London and Kent.
The footage was filmed in the early hours of December 30.
Many described the meteor as a large blue and white shooting star with two tails.
The clip shows the huge star flashing with more intensity as it gets closer to the ground.
One onlooker said: “What an incredible moment. I was driving a truck saw the flash and then a tremendous trail of fire behind it.
“It was like a shooting star but in 4K 10x Zoom. So glad that someone’s camera caught it.”
