What Is a Fulgurite?

Fulgurites, often called "fossilized lightning," are created when a lightning bolt strikes the ground and fuses the sand into a hollow, glass-lined tube. The result is a natural glass sculpture, fused by the extreme heat of a lightning bolt. This exact phenomenon was popularized by the Hollywood movie Sweet Home, Alabama.
