I should have included "man made item".
My elder brother will only ask a question if he has the answer to hand ,the family call them 'Keith questions'. This was one of them.

The Bullwhip.

Michaels Dad gets the Cigar. we learn something new each day.

You may have heard.....Farmer Dave and wife Mabel were driving past farmer Browns paddock when they noticed a cow and bull doing what's natural.
"Oh Mabel" said Dave "Can I do that"
"Don't know" said Mabel "It's Brown's Cow"

Well if you really want to get correct about it then it would be a bullet. Any6 thing that goes faster the 816 ft. per sec. is braking the sound barrier and a good many muzzle loaders bullets go a lot faster then that so it was broken about the time the first fire arms where made

Depends on how you ask the question and how technical you want to get.
Actually when a bullwhip pops, it's broken the barrier. Whips go back way past airplanes.

If you are talking weapons, I think the Germans had an 88mm shell that would break the sound barrier during WWII. I believe their unmanned V2 rockets may also have broken the sound barrier.
