I've played a "thunder sheet" where you have a long sheet of metal, i think bronze, and then shake it back and forth to create a loud roar. There is also a method called the lions roar, where you get a bass drum, we used a marching bass drum, then attach a string to it, and pulling on it will create friction and create a loud bass drum sound.
