Lightning instantly superheats the creosote, blowing the light pole apart. The same thing can happen with pine trees.
It happened to a huge live oak tree on a golf course in Tallahassee. It was the size of one of the oaks in the quad at LSU. Reduced that tree to matchsticks that covered the fairway from tee to green. There was nothing left but a stump in the ground.
