That was my first thought when I saw it too, but I went and looked and was reminded how bad my geography knowledge is!
There's really not much in the southern hemisphere. I spent most of my life in Australia and generally thought of Africa and South America as being down under with us, but 2/3 of Africa is above the equator and even 10% of South America is "north".
