In January 1953, a tidal surge shook the North Sea. The titanic waves flooded the Dutch coastline, killing almost 2,000 people. 54 years later, a similar storm threatened the region. But this time, they were ready. This was thanks to a massive, interlocking system known as the Delta Works— the most sophisticated flood prevention project in the world. Stefan Al dives into this marvel of engineering.

1953年1月，潮汐震撼了北海。巨浪淹没了荷兰的海岸线，造成近2000人死亡。 54年后，类似的风暴威胁到该地区。 但是这次，他们已经准备好了。 这要归功于名为Delta Works的大型联锁系统，这是世界上最复杂的防洪工程。 Stefan Al深入研究了这一工程奇迹。
