Lads,
I came across this yesterday and showed it at the club meeting, probabily the best re-entry video I've seen.

The video is also on youtube for those who want to download it.

Really cool Dave, thanks for showing it on Wednesday night.

Mike,
as to witnessing a 'live' re-entry, I have seen it only once. It was very small, and was in Winter. I was looking in Orion's direction when about 4 pieces, of what I don't know, slowly entered the atmosphere, burning red as they came down, and disintegrated. Never found out what it was.
