Muerte por sonido

Siguiendo link de slashdot llego a un sitio que vende copias a escala del cohete Satuno V. Muy poco sé de esos temas asi que quedé sorprendido cuando lei:

The sound waves could easily pulverize a human’s skeleton if he was unlucky enough to be within a mile of the launch pad. Even at further distances, the sound waves felt like someone was thumping on your chest with their fists.

Eso no es todo, por otro lado leo:

In fact, according to History Channel’s show Modern Marvels, the only man-made sound louder than a Saturn V at liftoff is the detonation an atomic bomb.

Ahora comprendo cuando dicen que el despegue del Saturno V era un estallido controlado.
