Do you have a fox terrier? I had it many years ago. Great dog :) Fantastic video. There is a smaller cliff in Gdynia. Unfortunately, due to erosion and storms, the cliff wall goes back an average of one meter per year. It is good that the forest is growing there and people do not live. Like:)

"Nature" yeah Man lives by natures will NOT NOT ANYWHERE get over this There are places where it's REALLY stupid to live, to build, like 3 ft from a cliff, river edge, etc. The vast majority of buildings and farms mines and docks villages and cities in danger of erosion have been in place for MANY decades MANY hundreds of years. There were built 'safely' Unless humanity is happy w costs economic and environmental of endlessly demolishing and rebuilding a new the built environment hacking out new farmland, roads, ports we must come up with environmentally sensitive if not perfect responses to erosion. This area is a PERFECT example of erosion The town armored its self with sea wall and rip rap atop a broad sloping shelf into the sea. It works because waves start breaking WAY off shore as the bottom slopes up. A classic workable solution for such conditions. Then the barrier stops and the ocean is eroding around the wall leading to land farm building road loss that will eventually make efforts on the rest of wall pointless waste of money and embedded carbon it cost Whats worse is several hundred feet down the eroding coast is a rock cliff the seawall and rip rap could have been anchored to securing the entire coastal area here 'down' at a level where the cliff edge was close to sea level and easier to secure. Now with a 100 foot cliff, it'll be much more expensive to put in a wall and rip rap, or buy land to slope off and plant / stabilize to lower wall. The other solution would be to rip rap the sloping shelf far enough out, raising it up too, until no breaking wave can reach the cliff, then let the cliff slowly collapse out from under the farmland and let nature replant the resulting collapsed land to stabilize it and let the farmers go bankrupt. fyi other solution for long sloping off shore shelf are off shore breakwaters to make sure all 'serious' wave action is disapated there, and not against erodable coast, and rip rapping coast edge to resist the lapping waves and tidal forces that will remain. Using rock, concrete cassions filled with something, stripping ships and sinking them as bases for marine life fishing and diving industry The other primary coastal condition, a sharp drop off into water is more expensive to stabilize as the most expensive of armoring deep into ocean can be the only feasible solution, as evidenced by many small ports in UK Ireland EU....
