Training Tips
Did You Know?
By Clay Wade, Assistant Global Product Line Manager

There’s nothing like a sound science factoid to whet your appetite for more sound science.
You know when Indiana Jones uses his whip to snap a weapon out of a guy's hand? Do you know where the *WHIPCRCACK* comes from? Believe it or not, it isn't when the whip makes contact with the bad guy. When handled by an expert (the only kind of person who should be playing with a whip), the end of the whip moves so fast that it actually breaks the sound barrier, thus creating a sonic boom as it changes direction!
The whip is the very first human-made device that can accomplish this fantastic feat, and the only one we know of that can do so without the benefit of some type of combustion. If you think of something else that can, let us know!
Now that our curiosity is piqued, it’s a great time to pick up some practical and interesting sound science skills over at HARMAN University! By having access to HARMAN University, you have the opportunity to learn from some of the most skilled audio scientists in the world. Check out one of the modules below to level up your sound game!
