I think I saw this in a movie... The Reaping, maybe?
I'm pretty sure that the fulgurite wind chimes displayed in the movie were created when lightning hits sand.

I think it's called "sand glass", which of course, glass is already made of, but this is instant. Have you seen "Sweet Home Alabama" with Reese Witherspoon?
