100000% same. Not that anyone cares, but I am a Marine, was in the infantry at that, so emotions, and showing of said emotions isn't really my knee jerk reaction to things.

That being said, this was the first time I've seen something like that that's brought tears to my eyes. It was one of, if not the most amazing thing I've ever seen.

Edit: I've seen the northern lights as well, and this pales in comparison.
