Australia's famous pink Lake Hillier is a sight to behold. Discovered in 1802 by a Royal Navy explorer, its strawberry milkshake color is awe-inspiring. Exactly what causes the lake in Australia to be pink is up for debate, but the color is probably due to the microorganisms that make Lake Hillier their home. Part of the "SciShow" series.
