  • Well, Chuck Yeager’s Bell-X1 is usually touted as the first aircraft to break the sound barrier, but there is pretty good evidence that the advanced P-51D/E models broke the sound barrier in power-dives over Europe in the later stages of World War II.

    However, the first human invention was the rawhide bullwhip. When cracked, the tip of the whip moves quickly enough that it actually creates that snap that we hear — a small sonic boom.

  • Some common whips such as the bullwhip or sparewhip are able to move faster than sound
