This is a video of science lover James Orgill from Youtube channel The Action Lab popping balloons in the loudest and quietest rooms at 3M’s Innovation Center. The loudest room is a reverberation chamber (is that what Darth Vader hung out in?) that reflects maximum sound waves, while the quietest room is an anechoic chamber that absorbs as much sound as possible. It was pretty neat to hear. James also tests the rooms by blowing an air horn and a whistle, which gave me a headache. Thanks a lot, James.

Keep going for the video, popping starts at 2:42 (the video should be queued there already).
