I have seen what appeared to be a meteor bounce from the atmosphere, high above, came down at a shallow angle relative to us, and skipped away at about a 10 to 15 degree angle, appeared to climb. Visible for only a second or two.

Dashcam footage of the incident. Looks like a meteor breaking up.

Footage of what some believe to be a U.F.O. in the sky over Northern Ireland has been shared on social media. The footage was recorded on a dash-cam by Sandy Laverty of the public as they drove to work on the Cloyfin Road in Coleraine on Friday November 9 at 06:44am.

Quite easy to geolocate the dashcam footage.
