    Could they not just show it from one point of view without flipping the view and playing 3 gunshots every couple of seconds?

    It's true it has even been recorded at high temps then the sun. It's all about physics and forces strong enough to separate water from itself and then rapidly implode causing a flash of light and extreme heat. Scientist can even recreate these "sonic flashes" in labs quite easily.
