No, they viewed as flying from ground to sky radially, from the center (radiant) that is below horizon. They looks dimmer because you see them from another angle and distance.

If shower is intense you have more bright meteors, and porbably you will be able to see some rising from below horizon after radiant is gone under the horizon. If shower is weak, you could use telescope to observe them.

Radiant is an imaginary point, it does not mean center or shower. It is just a point where meteors looks flying directly towards you. All meteors in shower really fly as a parallel stream. Usually meteor stream diameter is much larger than Earth. and they falls everywhere in the sky when Earth is inside that stream.

Also, to observe meteors flying from below horizon, you need meteor shower that have radiant point that could go below horizon at your location during nighttime. Try ones with low declination, i.e. radiant close to celestial equator.

You mean something like that: https://youtu.be/xy7OHmICi_o?t=32 ?

Unfortunately, there was no any really intense meteor showers in the era of affordable good cameras.

It goes up from horizon, not down, from ground to sky, just a result of quick serach. If you could see it going up in the sky, it obviously could go from below horizon. Search for amateur astronomers overnight meteor shower videos, then spend few days watching them out, with high probability you will find what you need. Or wait for next meteor shower and be ready with telescope and watch them by your own eyes.
