Probably I not understand exactly the topic: in the past years two 
bodies discovered as asteroids fell on the Earth as meteorites, do
it can occured the same now? A flashing object sound strange: a 
rotating satellite? A Rentry of satellites? What other?
In  http://www.minorplanetcenter.net/iau/NEO/toconfirm_tabular.html
there are many objects that  stand by for confirmation but nobody of 
they can to be see with naked eyes flashing.
I think that more probably it's a manmade object.
Best greetings.
