2 liter bottles can be used to make extremely loud booms with fireworks trapped inside. I've seen, and felt it a block away.

A ton of cops just went flying down Coursey at Airline. Probably has nothing to do with it, but I have nothing else to add. I asked some guys on Ben Hur if they heard anything and they said no.

Heard it too, in Magnolia Lakes on Burbank. The shockwaves/echo definitely lingered for a few seconds.

Use to make them out of Gatorade/POWERade bottles. Very loud, about the same as a 7mag going off.

I heard it near Highland and Bluebonnet. Didn't sound like a firework.

You're not kidding. I was getting gas at that Shell at Highland and I-10 and a transformer blew up a few hundred feet from me. That scared the crap out of me.

A buddy of mine used to make them somehow with leather speed bags. They'd rattle windows for blocks. Of course he set them off in the middle of BFE so there really weren't that many windows getting rattled.

Acetylene bomb? Those things will rattle windows and knock out street lights...at least trash bag size ones will.
