Mysterious booms heard around the world are leaving experts baffled - Sensationalist Headlines

[quote]A massive mystery ‘boom’ in Alabama earlier this week was so shocking some residents even called police because of the suspicious sound. [B]Locations varied from Swansea and Yorkshire to Cairns on the east coast of Australia.[/B] Speaking to the Abergavenny Chronicle, one resident said: ‘It nearly gave me a heart attack it was that loud. ‘At first I thought it was shotgun blast or a firework, but it was way too loud for that. It sounded more like a tank going off. ‘My husband said it was probably mini meteors colliding with the earth, but have you ever heard such nonsense?’ The source of the Welsh booms have remained unsolved.[/quote] [url=http://metro.co.uk/2017/11/22/mysterious-booms-heard-around-the-world-are-leaving-experts-baffled-7098393/]Source[/url] That's a fair distance, I haven't heard anything yet

i'm sure there is a completely rational reason for why these booms are happening

I left a hand grenade in a cooking pot somewhere off the shore of Lake Michigan. If it managed to escape via underwater tunnels, it may have ended up near Australia and been detonated by a curious pelican.

There's a snopes article for everything. [URL]https://www.snopes.com/photos/supernatural/strangesounds.asp[/URL] Does seem it's a little unusual if these sounds really are loud as fuck. Could be military aircraft breaking the sound barrier; happened around here about a year ago and caused a stir.

[QUOTE=elitehakor;52917081]i'm sure there is a completely rational reason for why these booms are happening[/QUOTE] I remember, back in 2014, something like that has happened in Munich. It was a cloudy night, around 3am and there was this sound of a MASSIVE explosion. I am almost 30 years old, I have heard a lot of thunderstorms in my life and even had a tropical storm in Florida but I have never ever heard a sound like this one. The "boom" sound was loud and very clear that there was no echo, no buildup, it was just there out of the nothing. After that. Nothing. No rain, no storm. It was nothing. I looked around our street and the backyard, nothing. Over the next several days, there were tons of tweets, investigations, new reports etc It turned out that the explosion sound was caused by a very rare electrical discharge in the atmosphere which was 10 times stronger than a usual lighting strike only without a real lighting strike hitting the ground.

A meteor was tracked as it passed over Georgia, South Carolina, and finally crashed in North Carolina about 2 months ago. I live in Western NC. I was outside and saw it fly over. It hit the mountain behind mine apparently. The sound was so loud just from passing over, it left my ears ringing.

[QUOTE=_Maverick_;52917191]Your husband was probably right, Lady.[/QUOTE] Everyone knows meteors are just a myth though!

I knew Benjamin Wittes was going to cause shit sooner or later

It's probably numerous different things that have no relation to each other outside people putting the reports together into one article. A jet breaking the sound barrier in one place, a gun going off in another, a car backfiring somewhere else, etc.

[QUOTE=_Maverick_;52917191]Your husband was probably right, Lady.[/QUOTE] More like meteors blowing up in the atmosphere, I both saw and heard that a couple of years ago, shit was pretty fucking loud

What about them testing their new Lockheed Hypersonic Spyplane?

[QUOTE=Dan The Man;52917479]What about them testing their new Lockheed Hypersonic Spyplane?[/QUOTE] Didn't they loose that? I remember reading about that then nothing..

[QUOTE=Rixxz2;52917264]More like meteors blowing up in the atmosphere, I both saw and heard that a couple of years ago, shit was pretty fucking loud[/QUOTE] There was that one in Russia that exploded in the atmosphere a couple years back. It was only 20 meters wide and released somewhere between 23-33 times the energy as the Hiroshima bomb, Injured almost 2,000 people, shattered windows and collapsed rooftops all over the place Surely much smaller meteors are perfectly capable of producing loud booms, too

Article is sensationalism at its worst. The only thing connect all the sounds are that they are loud sounds with unexplained origins, that's it

[quote]‘My husband said it was probably mini meteors colliding with the earth, but have you ever heard such nonsense?’ [/quote] I dunno, the sound could be the massive stick up this woman's ass shifting tectonic plates.

[QUOTE=zin908;52917185]I have so many questions.[/QUOTE] Ask.

Could it be climate change associated with microbursts and vortexes? Or it could just be excessive noise pollution by jets? Idk something will stick sooner or later if I'm creative enough.

[QUOTE=Megadave;52918168]Could it be climate change associated with microbursts and vortexes? Or it could just be excessive noise pollution by jets? Idk something will stick sooner or later if I'm creative enough.[/QUOTE] Probably Jets going Supersonic, but what do I know. [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyquake]Could be anything[/url] Not sure if it was some bullshit documentary but apparently booms like these have been heard everywhere from the Nile to the Ganges, well anywhere actually. They can't explain it but back in the 1800's people reported hearing cannon fire but there were none firing at all, in most cases there were no operational cannons anyway. This caused people to panic, thinking it was divine intervention but I am guessing the Sky might just be letting off a little excess gas. I mean its diet has been not great lately so I wouldn't be surprised

Sorry, it was me. Bad gas lately.

I thought the gas holder down the road had exploded or something.

That guy from the news bloopers would probably say it's coming from Howard Stern's buttcrack.

Could be testing of experimental pulsejet engines too, wasn't that a thing people wondered about last time? Its hard to attribute a number of scattered reports to one incident though, especially without knowing more about the actual sound and its timbre too.

[QUOTE=deadvcr;52917148][video=youtube;hS_-n2I2wdY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hS_-n2I2wdY[/video] Sorta reminds me of this.[/QUOTE] The trumpets in the sky were really interesting. They had something to do with Earth's magnetic field reacting to something or another in a particular way. It's Earth singing to you. Or playing the trumpet, whichever you prefer. I find it an extremely humbling experience. Even in this age of information, if something like this comes out of nowhere, people still get absolutely freaked to the core. From aliens, secret experiments to the heralds of the apocalypse, the stories are many. And you have to admit, watching those videos makes something primal in us twist in fearful apprehension. The heralds of the apocalypse with their trumpets were probably actually people hearing this same planetary event thousands of years ago and coming up with a divine explanation. As with many other things. Humans are very, very imaginative.
