LOL! I have a 40" x 60" and I literally warn clients before I open it, ever since I scared the crap out of someone that I didn't warn. That thing has a life of its own!

Haha! None of my reflectors go "Cabam" - the biggest one I have goes "FWOOP!". I have a lovely big collapsible background that makes more of a deep "BBBWOOOOP!" noise.

It's fun looking at the expressions on peoples' faces when you pop out a reflector, or even a collapsible white/grey card, but my favourite is the way people look when they see you wrap a huge backdrop up inside itself and drop it in the zip-up bag in ten seconds.
