  • this video need guile theme

  • dont click on nipple copter!!!!

  • @frankie656 indeed

  • It is visible in very simple terms not because of the sonic boom but because of Prandtl-Glauert Singularity. It has nothing to do with the jet breaking the sound barrier it is just sometimes happens at the same time. The reason for the cloud in very very simplified terms is because the water droplets cool very quickly creating the cloud and the shape of the cloud is a different story.

  • Is the wind thats leaving my anus travelling at more than speed of sound?? Awesome

  • What's that at 1:57 ? "Space Ships can also break the Sound Barrier but only when they re-enter the Earth's atmosphere"? That's just nonsense and doesn't make any sense if you actually think about it.

    Here's some proof: /watch?v=k-Um5EiaAxo

    Still a good explanatory video, though.

  • @LaidbackLukee ??????????

  • @pirst679 ip man is fastest!!
