Dead Sea is little bit saltier than the ocean

More than a little bit :-)

Like ten times more :-)
But this was exactly the point of using it as an illustration

If you have couple more pounds of fat around your
stomache it makes it even easier to float in the ocean :-))
.... and probably makes you tastier for sharks, too ;-)
