Does every solid object have a sound frequency at which it shatters?

Every solid object has a resonate frequency in which it can shatter easily given enough intensity (sound pressure). I think when you have seen wine gles shatter and such it is generally a gimmic... someone off camera shooting the gl with a BB gun or something. 180 decibles of sound pressure is supposed to be fatal to humans. Lots of strange weapons in development that are selective... there is a microwave weapon that causes an intense burning sensation in your skin (without damage apparently)... to be used for riot/crowd control. Neutron bombs were designed to kill life and leave buildings and such in tact.
