I was near (~300 meters) when an Iron Dome battery lit off unexpectedly (to me).

They are LOUD. I believe the ordinance hits supersonic pretty much at the launchpad. The sonic boom knocked me on my ass.

Or, it could have been the glass of wine I was enjoying sitting on my friends back porch. We ran for the wine cellar. Had time to bring the open bottle, of course.
