Nobody is said in the Bible to have seen the actual resurrection, as you know.

 Mary Magdalene was at the Jesus' crucifixion, a witness to his ministry, 
 and she was at the resurrection. She saw them all with her own eyes. 
 Then she told the others. She was the first to see it - the 
 resurrection. First. That's what I think.
 
 Mary heard the risen Jesus call out her name and she knew it was the 
 Christ. After telling her what to do, he flew up into the sky and went 
 to meet the apostles. How do you think he got to Galilee - on a bullock 
 cart?
 
 For Christians, the belief that Jesus miraculously returned to life 
 after the crucifixion is the central tenet of the faith - the Nicene Creed.
