	Los Angeles is one of the largest cities in the world. It is also one of the only cities in the world with significant active oil extraction within city limits. The sediment in the Los Angeles basin is up to 6 miles (10 km) deep, and includes the following oil fields:		Los Angeles is one of the largest cities in the world.

	In the book "Acts of the Prophet" by [[Pearry Green]], William Branham told his son [[Billy Paul Branham\|Billy Paul]] that sharks would swim in downtown Los Angeles before he was an old man.
