Hodmezovasarhely, Hungary Six Seconds Bolide Meteor Fireball 6FEB2011

Hodmezovasarhely, Hungary Six Seconds Meteor 042110-16UT 6FEB2011 
During data processing I noticed a strange event on 06/Feb/2011. 
The event lasted about 6 seconds, during this period the body fragmented to 2 parts, later 4 parts are clearly visible.
I thought it is a space debris but experts vote for a
disintegrating fireball. The space debris group at aero.org
also does not confirm (event is too fast and there is no potential
candidate reentry object). Unfortunately other cameras in the region seen only clouds.

The event triggered my MetRec software 5 times due to its
brightness changes, so the video has some little bumps.

Time is in UT and should be quite accurate: my PC synchronises to a time server .

Could someone please confirm or comment?

Hi, I saw my first meteor! 8:35 PM in the western sky over Reading, PA. It moved from left to right in a bit of an arc. I thought at first it was the trail of a fireworks rocket, but who sets them off in February...  Great!  Congrats on your sighting!

Very Small Asteroid Makes Close Earth Approach on February 4, 2011
Don Yeomans and Paul Chodas
NASA/JPL Near-Earth Object Program Office
February 4, 2011
Asteroid 2011 CQ1 was discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey on February 4 and made a record close Earth approach 14 hours later on February 4 at 19:39 UT (14:39 EST). It passed to within 0.85 Earth radii (5480 km) of the Earth's surface over a region in the mid-Pacific. This object, only about one meter in diameter, is the closest non-impacting object in our asteroid catalog to date. Prior to the Earth close approach, this object was in a so-called Apollo-class orbit that was mostly outside the Earth's orbit. Following the close approach, the Earth's gravitational attraction modified the object's orbit to an Aten-class orbit where the asteroid spends almost all of it a time inside the Earth's orbit. ...
