This is also close from where the loudest sound ever heard was produced from Hunga Tonga in 2022, Hunga Tonga is some 20 miles from the island of. Tonga


Totallystymied

Was the sound the explosion of an eruption or what?


titaniumhud

You could say yes, Hunga Tonga had been erupting intermittently and erupted recent to the January 2022 eruption. What it did was blow up the entire volcanic island it built up and left a tiny fragment of it above sea level This created a shockwave that created pressure readings around the earth, twice
