Thunder Drum More Details. A Thunder Drum is made with a spring attached to the diaphragm, so when it is shaken the spring moves and creates a continuous resonance through the body of the instrument. This results in a sound very much like thunder. Also known by other names such as Thunder Tube, Spring Drum, or, Thunder Maker.

To play a Thunder Drum, hold the instrument with the spring dangling down and shake it from side to side very fast by turning your wrist quickly from side to side. You can stop the sound just by gently holding the spring.

Thunder is the sound caused by lightning. Depending upon the distance from and nature of the lightning, it can range from a long, low rumble to a sudden, loud crack.

It's because the amount of electrical energy that flows from the cloud to the ground is so enormous: it's like a very big waterfall of electricity. The louder the sound that you hear, the closer you are to the lightning.

Thunder is the acoustic shock wave resulting from the extreme heat generated by a lightning flash. It is produced the same way regardless of whether lightning is positive or negative. Lightning can be as hot as 54,000°F (30,000°C), a temperature that is five times hotter than the surface of the Sun!

The temperature of the air in the lightning channel may reach as high as 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit, 5 times hotter than the surface of the sun. Immediately after the flash, the air cools and contracts quickly. This rapid expansion and contraction creates the sound wave that we hear as thunder.

MEANING: Stand up and be counted. Be assertive. Don't be shy about sharing your gifts and letting the world know about your value. Declare with authority.

Instead of breathing fire, the Thunderdrum produces a strong concussive sound that can kill a human at close range. The blast is so powerful that the dragon is said to "get its power from Thor himself." Legend also has it that when a Thunderdrum hatches from its egg, it makes a sound so loud it rattles the sky!
