    It seems the only thing living under this lake is the Camera man.

    I'm actually surprised they dive there. Wouldn't that contaminate any sample? Maybe they did all the scientific measurements of the water before and now go down there just for fun?

    I figured as much. But to the naked eye, there doesn't seem to be anything. I imagine something in the color or patterns on the lake's bottom reveal the life. But I wouldn't know better. I'm not a biologist. Still a nice video though.

    Bacteria (and I think maybe algae?) can be found there. Given the conditions this is already astounding.
