First one to ring the buzzer and post the answer gets 1000 points*:

Why's it called a "thunderclap"?

*points don't mean squat, kinda like on Whose Line Is It Anyway?

you mean a clap of thunder?

just a word to personify thunder, as clapping is a human function we can relate to.

Weird terminology. Is there any history to it?

Just outside Copenhagen. It was like 4 AM in late June, and the pink in the sky was awesome. The camera hardly even did it justice. I was probably too drunk to use the right settings.

EDIT: When I said sunset, I really meant sunrise.
