Just before I left Greg Burnham's forum recently (okay, I was banned for telling Charles Drago he was full of crap -- sue me) a thread was started by Mr. Drago in which he stated that 130 witnesses in Dealey Plaza had seen a large flash and heard a loud explosion, in the vicinity of the Grassy Knoll, prior to shots being fired, and that these witnesses had made statements to that effect.
I've never heard of this before. Has anyone ever heard anything related to this?

I got banned without ever putting up a single post!
130 witnesses sounds like creative accounting. I haven't read this anywhere, it's probably only asserted in the text mentioned by G.M. Evica.
I've been waiting for that other site to start banning people at random. Their treatment of Bill Simpich set the tone for their intended treatment of productive posters like yourself, Robert. On the other hand, you do drop cliffhangers.

I venture over to lurk every so often and saw this too. It was news to me. If this is true I am wondering why no one else has ever reported it or written abut it. Who are these 130 alleged witnesses? To whom did they report this event? .

No, I've never heard of it either.
Think we could un-ban Mr. Drago just long enough to have him explain this to us?

Hey Bob. I don't think anyone should be banned for speaking truth to pomposity. I found that a head scratcher myself. I have seen a number of interviews with witnesses that day, in particular Mark Lane's documentary, and not one makes mention of this. But if St. GME says it happened, it must have.
Of the 837 listed online as offering testimony 77 of them are listed as being at the assassination scene...
I can't see how ALL of them experienced the GK shot(s) yet that still leaves 53 not listed who would have been in DP and asked by someone about what they saw and heard on the GK.
I don't know CD to exaggerate... So I'm not sure how he arrived at that number...

I don't remember even one witness saying they "had seen a large flash and heard a loud explosion, in the vicinity of the Grassy Knoll, prior to shots being fired..."
