The rattling is usually caused by the muffler vibrating against the car frame, more than likely because of a torn or worn brace. Braces hold the muffler and tailpipe(s) away from the frame to prevent vibration and damage. The loud sound may indicate a rupture in the muffler itself or somewhere along the tailpipe. If your brother said that the pipe isn't rotted, it may be the muffler itself that has a hole in it.
