Bengaluru residents on Friday went into a frenzy after their afternoon was interrupted by a loud boom sound. The source of the sound was unclear initially and led to a tweet flood as people took to Twitter to express their confusion. The sound was heard around 12:30 in the afternoon.

Soon after the sound was heard, Defence Ministry clarified on Twitter that it was a routine Indian Airforce Test Flight involving a supersonic profile that took off from Bengaluru Airport.

“The sonic boom was probably heard while the aircraft was decelerating from supersonic to subsonic speed between 36,000 and 40000 feet altitude,” the tweet read.

The best part of social media is that even adversity is transformed into fun thanks to all the memes and funny reactions and this time was no different. As soon as the sound of the boom was heard, Twitter was flooded with memes and hilarious experiences. Here are some of the best reactions.

Some Twitter users started trolling Virat Kohli after the boom sound. A user shared a video by Anushka Sharma and wrote, “This might be the source of that ‘loud sound’ in Bengaluru,” wrote the user.

Some even started expecting avengers’ and aliens’ entry into the world. 

“Bengaluru people waiting for Avengers! Is it thanos snap? Bengaluru, if its aliens, trump would have tweeted. send them to Area 51,” wrote a user.

One user compared that the boom sound was due to human gastric problems. “It seems someone had mooli ke parathe in the lunch..” he wrote.
