I think that only happens if the jet is at a very low altitude.

I used to live next to an air force base in the lonely wilds of TX. I had a jet do a low sonic boom over me (couple hundred feet maybe). It knocked me to the ground. I'm not sure if it knocked me to the ground out of fear, or out of ground or air movement, but it was so powerful of an "explosion" all my senses went haywire and I found myself on the ground.

A low boom is no small deal.
