If the witnesses claim they saw it hit the ocean, then would it have not have fallen over the horizon? Since it was dark, and the dark flight would have been darker. Would like to see footage though, I mean this is Florida and aren't there security cameras avery 100 feet or so? Someone somewhere MUST have some corroborating video footage, even if it was just a lens flare.
Regardless, it rests on the bottom of the ocean.
