Google Maps is pretty well known for giving driving directions. Now, they’ve grown popular enough to give you directions across continents which are not even linked by roads. For instance, if you try getting directions between New York, NY to Stockholm, Sweden, it will advise you to take a dive into the sea and swim across continents.

Start swimming from New York and cover a distance 3,462 miles by swimming to reach Sweden. Maybe flying would have been a better option, than swimming. Ah… now I get it! Everybody can swim, but who can fly?
