Called Dunaliella Salina, it produces a pink pigment called beta-carotene, which is also found in carrots and other orange-colored vegetables.

8. Jam Sutton's David and Goliath Statue, Ireland

Standing tall and proud in a vivid pink hue in County Cork, Jam Sutton's statue of David and Goliath reinterprets the biblical tale with a modern, abstract approach. The statue depicts David as a young boy, with a slingshot in his hand and a smirk on his face. Goliath, on the other hand, is depicted as a giant, with a club in his hand and a look of fear on his face.
The artist Jam Sutton, who is known for his humorous sculptures, said that he was inspired to create the statue after seeing a group of children pretending to be David and Goliath, when playing in the park. Sutton thought it would be funny to create a statue that showed the story from the children's perspective.
A different depiction of Goliath, who is often portrayed as a fearsome warrior in the Bible, the idea of this statue is to show that Goliath was just a man, and that even a small boy could defeat him with courage and faith. The statue is free to see, and it is open 24 hours a day.
