Swimming in Victoria Falls
« on: April 02, 2008, 09:51:29 PM »
RJob, I didn't "snope" this to check authenticity.  They're cool pictures either way....

In Zimbabwe, Africa, you will find the magnificent Victoria Falls at a height of 416 ft. The location is known as "The Devil's Swimming Pool".

During the months of September and December, people can swim as close as possible to the edge of the falls without falling over!
 
These falls are becoming well known amongst the "radical tourist" industry as more and more people search for the ultimate experience.

The video makes it look a little less sedate then do the still images.  The little basin itself they're using as the swimming pool appears not too daunting.  Would imagine some might lose their lunch peering over the edge though :puke: .

I agree with Shannon on the kids. I guess I am not a thrill seeker, I enjoy living to much.

I already get a lump in my throat when it comes to heights...when you have total control it is daunting enough but when nature is willing to deposit you 415 feet with the force of millions of gallons of water to beat you senseless against the waiting rocks below...my heart started to race just looking at the video.

I think there just may have been a little influence from alcohol.
