When they return to their proper time and find the political reality altered to the worst and Mr. Travis shoots Eckels. Or, it could be when Eckels steps off the path because he gets frightened by the T-Rex.
At the end of the story the sound of thunder is the whole impact of the differences that have influenced the world and society because of the tragic mistake Eckles did, of killing the butterfly. So then Travis kills Eckles because of his big mistake, that seemed to be all his fault. The sound at the end comes from the shot.
The music was an avalanche of sound, crushing all in its path.
The protagonist was Eckel
a guy pays money to go on a safari to the past. He gets to kill a t-rex, as soon as he see's it he wants out, he heads back to the time machine but paniks - stepping of the pre-arranged path (he shouldn't leave the path, he could kill an insect (the butterfly effect)) eventually the t-rex is killed by the safari guide and he makes his way back to the TM. The guide is mad at him, because he paniked - nearly killing everyone - and because he left the path. The guide says he will shoot him if things are different in the future. when they get back things are slightly different, the receptionist looks strange and spelling is different. The major difference being the results in a recent election. The man looks at the mud on his boots and see's a dead butterfly, the guide see's it too. They both realise what happened - The guide shoots him.

According to Webster, thunder is classified as "the sound that follows a flash of lightning and is caused by sudden expansion of the air in the path of the electrical discharge." In simpler terms, thunder is the sound produced by the speed of a lightning bolt, similar to a sonic boom produced by a fighter jet. Did you know that thunder is heard after lightning because sound is slower than light? For more definitions try: http://webster.com/
The point of view in "A Sound of Thunder" is third person limited, following the protagonist Eckels as he embarks on a time-travel safari. The story primarily focuses on his experiences and thoughts as he navigates the consequences of altering the past.
The crashing or booming sound produced by rapidly expanding air along the path of the electrical discharge of lightning.Thunderstorms result from the formation of cumulonimbus clouds, which are also called "thunderheads."Thunder is a sound produced when air expands and contracts quickly. Air is instantly heated when lightning passes through it, causing the expansion. The hot molecules move outward and collide with colder molecules. A giant air wave results that produces the sound known as thunder.
Yes, the word "path" has a short "a" sound, pronounced /pæθ/.

Lightning is an electric discharge from the cloud to ground (although you can have other types, such as cloud to cloud). When the lightning strikes it heats up the surrounding air so fast that it causes an explosion, which is heard as thunder.

No, "path" and "fast" do not rhyme. "Path" sounds like "ath" with a short "a" sound while "fast" sounds like "fahst" with a longer "a" sound.
