An American expat living in Australia noticed a “strange” sound on the beach.

Tate Duane, ad California who publishes under TikTok name twaynne, claims that the sand began to “squeak” on a Gold Coast the beach as she walked.

“It’s literally crazy. I’ve never heard creaking sand before,” she said in a short video released on Sunday.

In the clip, Tate records himself walking on hot sand, and if you listen closely, you can hear a squeal.

It comes after the young expat revealed a list of things that have shocked her since moving down.

But this observation has a simple explanation. According to Victoria Parks, the small, rounded grains of quartz sand are compressed under your feet, resulting in a high-pitched squealing sound.

Others were quick to comment on the video, saying: “I thought it was ok.”

“It usually happens more when it’s hot,” wrote another, while a third added: “It happens a lot on Aussie beaches.”

Another added: “It just means it’s all sand and nothing else.”

Some may also call it “singing sand”.

Last year, Tate revealed that she was baffled by everything from the way Australians drive and talk to the food they serve in restaurants.

First on the list is that Australians drive on the opposite side of the road – which she finds “stressful”.

“I used to live abroad, I used to drive on the wrong side of the road, but for some reason watching people drive makes me stressed,” she said.

Left turns give her the most anxiety – while she struggles with the rules about not turning right on red.

The second shock is that Australians love to shorten their words: “Every word is shortened, even if it doesn’t need to be shortened,” she said.

“A lady came in the other day and ordered two lids, and I thought she said two cups, so I handed her two cups, but she wanted two cappuccinos.”

She said the word “keen” is never used in the US, but she has heard it a lot since she came to Australia. “I think it’s so funny. Like when people write ‘KEEEEEEN’ when they’re really excited about something,” she said

She went on to compare US and Australian traditions.

“All our plumbers in the US are stereotyped as these old people. Everyone is so young here. Like all electricians, plumbers, miners, she said.

She then said that Asian cuisine in Australia is a yes and Mexican is a no.
