What Happens When Lightning Hits Sand

Rock formation on a sandy beach with clear blue water in the background.

Is this what happens when lightning hits sand? It turns out that when lightning hits sand, it makes little holes in it. Sadly, this picture was part of an internet hoax that circulated in 2013.

It was made by a guy who goes by the name "Sandcastle Matt". He described the structure as "the biggest sandcastle I've ever made". It is an impressive sandcastle, but it's not what happens when lightning hits sand.

"Sandcastle Matt" made the sculptor by stacking bits of sand on top of petrified wood. The full sculpture is seen in the video.

The next big software update for iPhone is coming sometime in April and will include a Food section in Apple News+, an easy-to-miss new Ambient Music app, Priority Notifications thanks to Apple Intelligence, and updates to apps like Mail, Photos, Podcasts, and Safari. See what else is coming to your iPhone with the iOS 18.4 update.
