Saw one as a "tween" in the '60s - going over Rochester, NY in broad daylight.

Me and a buddy were smacking super balls with a bat when we noticed a bright light moving across the sky. Looked eerie as it was silent and while faster than a plane, it didn't give the impression of great speed (probably too high as it went over us). News folks said it had hit down in marsh land at the northern limits of the city (Lake Ontario is the USA/Canadian border there) and that crews were out searching for any remains.

Pretty neat to be at the right place and time to witness it.
