When lightning creates a sea monster out of the sand
During a stroll on a beach after a storm, this person stumbled across a large statue resulting from lightning striking the sand. This natural phenomenon created a scary figure of a huge monster. However, we can assure you that lightning bolts striking sand do not often create peculiar sand monsters.
When lightning strikes sand, the high temperature of lightning fuse the sand -rich in silica or quartz- into silica glass which retains its shape. In simple words, lightning converted the sand into a glass, which kept its form and resembled the statue of a sea monster.
