Angel Falls

Angel Falls is the tallest waterfall in the world. It fell but recently dropped to mountain called "Auyantepui". It is in Venezuela. The falls drop so far, the water turns into mist when it reaches the bottom.
The falls are named for Jimmy Angel. Jimmy Angel was an airplane pilot that crashed at the top of the falls in 1937.
Angel Falls is also called Salto Ángel or indigenous Kerepakupai-merú. The indigenous name derived from the Pemón natives means "falls from the deepest place". Ironically, the more famous name of the falls had nothing to do with the connotation that its water fell from the heavens.
