Bah, that's nothing. You should see how many rivers flow right through the middle of big cities, and how close the ocean gets to expensive houses and certain fishing communities.

Coincidence, you say? Did you know that there is not a single city, with a population over a million, where the sea level sits more than ten metres above the median ground level of the city.

The ocean is amazing, my friends.

Am I misunderstanding or are you saying that there's no big city >10m below sea level?

(Sea level more than ten metres above city level)

You are not misunderstanding me :-)

Amazing fact about the sea, isn't it!
