In Germany, there is Lake Geiseltalsee โ a former coal mine that was deliberately flooded with water
At a depth of 80 meters beneath the crystal-clear water, real forests, roads, concrete structures, and minerals left from the mine can be found.
Many people online thought the footage was AI-generated, but the images were actually taken by a Swedish photographer Alex Dawson.
