So I heard this happens but have never seen it happen until today. There I was working on the back wall of my little corral in a rainstorm. Then BOOM! lightning strike, turned around to see this....

Ha, cool!

I've never seen that happen, but I got struck by lightning once in-game.

I have had near misses by lightning on several occasions, never my pigs though. And creepers *shudder* The size of those explosions...

There are many things I haven't seen,
charged creepers, Spiderjockeys, overworld Pigmen, Gravelbeaches.

But I think if one day I came across I would be sooooooooooooooo happy

Yep, there was like 9 pigmen from that strike and all I got was 1 gold nugget and 3 rotten flesh from them. What a waste..... :(

Last time I checked, Gravel beaches were removed, alongside many other unique world generations.

That is correct, gravel beaches have been pulled. They were quite cool, but a bit odd.

Beaches
Beaches usually generate next to oceans and cover all nearby shorelines. They used to come in two varieties: sand beach and gravel beach. Sandstone is located below sand in sand beaches. Gravel beaches had no such border and thus pose dangers like falling into caverns located right underneath them.
Historical notes: Due to the changes in the terrain generation algorithm in the Beta 1.8 beaches were removed completely from the game. However, as of Snapshot 12w01a and update 1.2, sand beaches have made a return, but the way they look and generate are not the same as before. Gravel beaches did not appear at all in 1.1. After Snapshot 12w07a, the generation of beaches has been greatly improved.
