So is “social media influencer” like, a job?
It is, unfortunately. And apparently finding the perfect background is an important part of being the best in your field.
Which is why so many influencers have taken a liking to the picturesque lake in the city of Novosibirsk, in Russia.
Работяги, плавать там не опасно
На следующее утро мои ноги слегка покраснели и чесались дня два, потом все прошло 
Но что не сделаешь ради таких снимков
Вода на вкус немного кисловата, похожа на мел 
It,s not dangerous to swim here. The next morning, my legs turned slightly red and itched for two days, but then everything went. But what wouldn’t you do for the sake of such pictures? The water tastes a little sour

Except for one this: It’s not actually a lake, but the containment pond a power plant uses as an ash dump. The Siberian Generating Company, who runs the plant, has put out a warning against swimming in the lake, which gets its beautiful color from calcium salts and other metal oxides being pumped into the fairly shallow (3-6 feet deep) body of water.

Now, the lake isn’t radioactive or deadly – at least according to the power plant – but the cocktail of substances definitely certainly isn’t something you’d want in your bath water. It could lead to allergic reactions, among other unknown outcomes.
Not only that, but the bottom of the lake is muddy with ash deposits, meaning anyone walking in it could get stuck and require professional help to get out.
