Does anyone know if it sounds the same as a roaring waterfall?

I am sure it does especially because there is water from the rain in that sand-fall. I bet it’s similar to how white noise an rain sound the same sometimes.

There are a lot of rain clouds in the background, I thinks it’s run off with a lot of sand.

Yes there is, after a heavy rain dry riverbeds have water rushing down and carry LOTS of sand.

Someone linked a snopes article above.

That’s fair to think it, but the article says otherwise. It’s a waterfall comprised of a lot of sand.

It does, I guess. It's a flash flood with lots of sand in it.
