Riddle
Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.Riddle
Pushing toward the limit of time and space,
I made this really boom.
I was the first, but not the last
to rattle a window, and at times a room.
To your delight, and to others fright,
it is now rarely ever heard, if at all.
Who am I? What did I do?
Can any of you recall?

First to add a comment! Got the sound barrier part! Messed up on Chuck Yeager's name. Baaaaad Lycan Goood Raptor
GAAAHH! you got the first! >///
woah. malfunction much? ok but my message was that i got the sonic boom just not the name. even i'm not that smart.
Raptor I'm not so smart either. I got it cause I hung out at the R & G with Chuck Yeager. I didn't even know about his breaking the sound barrier until a few years later. I never met a more down to earth person! Your teaser was well written too.
Who's Chuck yeager..I thought it was wind or an explosion.
Well realm2346, Chuck Yeager was the first to make the big boom if you will. Look him up in History, or better yet ask zonarita she actually met him (Lucky Her. Wish I could have) Thank you all for the comments already!

Chuck Yeager was hardly the first person to make a sonic boom; he was just the first person to be inside the thing making it.
Any fool with a bullwhip can make a sonic boom. That's what the crack of the bullwhip is.
