All I heard was a crackling noise and then I saw the scaffolding fall off the building.

I heard a thunderous noise - like a ripping noise - and a great crash.

We can't get at the ceiling without draining it and building scaffolding. This is a huge project. It is always a big deal when you drain a pool. A large part of the expense is to build and then take down the scaffolding.

And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

Finally at around 5 a.m., we heard firing and the noise of a helicopter. When the kidnappers saw the government troops moving in, two of them who were armed with Kalashnikovs, held the rifles above their heads and then put them down on the ground. The soldiers arrested the kidnappers and took them to the helicopter.

I heard crackling that sounded just like the saplings breaking in the ice storm we had last year. Then I heard a boom and the sheep and dogs. When I opened my blurry eyes, I could see the glow and knew the barn was on fire.
