love it
a real natural infinity pool o_O
how long is the drop?
did anyone ever fall off the cliff?
sweet place to party
That's not real right? You're not a real person?
Really? Jesus will send them to hell? I mean i didn't think having a family out was a commandment, but i could be wrong. By the way I hope that someday you see how dumb you are.
It's very Christian like of you to daydream of people being beaten in prisons, but please keep it to yourself.
I can understand people having reservations of the danger, but there is no need to act like a shrieking harpy based on imaginations of mass of deaths.
It seems pretty obvious to me that the people are "playing up" the danger of the edge and current not that one can "look away" for a moment.
The view must be incredible. Presumably adults should use care and actually find out the facts of the dangers before going out there.
Cool pictures.
No, wait.....
There's a similar pool near the top of a waterfall in Laos, near Luang Prebang. The waterfall isn't quite so large but it is like a staircase with many levels, and is on the side of a mountain. From the pool you can see most of the fall and the valley below.
Awesome spot though, I'd live to sneak a pipe there in a plastic baggie and get faded there :)
I hope for ur sake that what u said up there as a joke. Im cool with religion, but isn't flogging people against Christian ideals, or something. Cool place though:)
check this video. >>

YEAARGH! I CAN FEEL THE PRESENCE IN MY BONES. I AM THE WORD, ITALICIZED. I SPITE THE NON-BELIEVERS WITH THE FURY. I ERADICATE PINKS IN BLUE AND YELLOW. THE APOCALYPSE AIN'T GOT NOTHING ON ME. I'M FREE TO BE ENSLAVED BY MY OWN DEVICES: FROP, A WHIP, AND THE TV REMOTE. I CHOOSE TO BE CHOSEN - HERE COME THE SPACESHIPS NOW. BRING ON THE ALIEN SEX! I'LL PENETRATE WITH THE FURY OF THE GODS AND EJACULATE THE TRUTH. I AM THE PRESENT PARTICIPLE, AND I'M DANGLING. I'LL DEFECATE WITH THE PROPHETS AND RETURN EMPTY BOWELED, STARVING FOR MANNA AND HUMAN HYPOCRISY - I REGURGITATE SINNERS FOR BREAKFAST. I AM THE ALL-ENCOMPASSING FEAR OF THE DARK, I'M UNDER YOUR BED, IN YOUR CLOSET, AND IN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT, BANGING YOUR WIFE WITH TWO-FISTED TALES OF SALLACK AND A LONG STEMMED PIPE. OOOOOHHHH YEAHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I BRING THE NOISE AND THE FOREST, THE TREES FALL DOWN BECAUSE I FARTED, I SHOOT RAZOR BLADES OUT OF MY PENIS, JUST FOR FUN! I EAT THE WORLD, INCLUDING MYSELF AND SHIT THE REST OF THE UNIVERSE - DAILY. I OPEN A CAN OF WHIP-ASS AND EAT IT UPSIDE DOWN. I ERADICATE THE UNCLEAN, FURNISH THE TEMPLE, SMITE THE INFIRM, DESTROY THE ELOQUENT, DRY HUMP THE PINKS AND CHEW ON THE BOBBIES, BEFORE NOON. I WROTE GENESIS WITH MY TOE IN THE SHIMMERING POOL OF PHIL COLLINS. I EXIST JUST TO CONTRADICT MYSELF! MY EGO IS UNMATCHED BY HUMAN UNDERSTANDING, IT IS ITS OWN DIMENSION - BECAUSE I'M MOTHERFUCKING RIGHT ON GODDAMMIT! I AM THE ETERNAL PROPAGATOR OF THE FERRIS WHEEL, THE SAVIOR OF THE YUGO, THE FIZZ IN DIET SODA, THE STATIC CLING OF THE SPECTRUM OF LIGHT - I RUN BACKWARDS THROUGH TIME MAGAZINE. THE GREAT GODDESS GIVES ME BLUMPKINS! MY FECES IS HIGH GRADE PLUTONIUM THAT....
And, if you didn't notice, this thread is actually about the cool waterfalls. So if you have a bunch of right wing religious crap to vent about, go find a right wing religious nut job thread to vent on....
As for the rest of the mayhem, please, get a life!
Perfectly safe, of course, you need to be safe around it. Going into Zimbabwe is actually a lot more dangerous than swimming in that pool, trust me. This is from someone who was almost swept off the Zimbabwean side of the falls when I was a child. Flooding at Vic Falls is beautiful, but damn dangerous!
God made nature, remember?
"The Devil's Pool", which I'm sure somewhat convinced you of your "satanic" claims, is just a name. It's just a bunch of rocks (ridiculously beautifully placed rocks, in any case). If you are so obsessed with your Christian Jihads, then I hope for your own sakes that you don't say the same things about other religions than you do about nature.
I'm not censoring your words, I'm just pointing out that your argument is kinda weak.
Oh and it's spelled "heathen".
Have a nice day.
But personally, I'll stay with pictures with this pool. I have a fear of heights issue.
Oh, and nice pool. Most waterfalls move backwards at a steady rate so it probably won't be there forever. There is no way I'd go near it drunk.
Course that f*ing stupid Bryony in Atonement is a different matter.
{And I'm not going to say anything about "Hizzoner" since a few people already said what I wanted to.}
Sinner, you're a dumbass. No one cares. Honestly. {Well, except for you, but you're technically "no one", so...yeah.}
yeah.
i like how this turned into a major religion spot?
PS - I have taken the liberty to use the name of "Hizzoner" on every message board I can find, with some variant of:
"The people who took their children there are criminal child abusers and should be imprisoned and flogged. Many children have probably died this way. What a sad shame - Jesus will be sending them directly to hell."
I try to change to subject to fit the particular message board. For example if its about fast cars then I would say "The people who DRIVE FAST are criminals and should be imprisoned and flogged." I always try to leave the rest of the message verbatim.
Seriously, this is the motherlode of trolling messages; "like discovering plutonium by accident" ala Costanza. I plan on sharing this message with the world. If you don't like it, FUCK OFF!
See you around.
Also to those who say this is child abuse.. you're the reason everything sucks in the world... YOU WISH your parents had "abused" you this way...
To trolls... keep trolling, just please keep doing it all in capitals so we can easily skip you crap
To everybody else, enjoy the wonderful pictures, and dream... nay, hope you can someday go to one of the wonderful places god, allah, mother nature, xenu, the big bang or whatever you believe in, created on this planet we call earth
cheers
anyway ya this is the first post I have seen the 2 of the 3 main types of retarded commenters... religous freak and photoshop faggot... sadly no one has commented in a sexually scary way yet... :(so close
But yeah, I wouldn't brings my kids out there to the edge. Sure, it's a great thrill for adults, but not exactly "child-safe."
That was fucking genius man! Sweet pictures of the pool, looks like great fun! I'll have to go there before I die!
Oh, wait - damn.
Well then, Photoshopped!
What, it's real? Shit.
Then how 'bout Burn in hell, sinners!
Already done, too?
Ah, fuck it - awesome pics!
I also like trees.
Sometimes I wear Ladies' underpants and then I climb trees.
Did anyone see Eastenders last night? It was quite good.
I would like to complain about the previous posting, as it is clearly derogatory to people who like to wear ladies underpants and climb trees.
Also I would like to complain that we didn't get to see more of Terry Wogan's mole on Points Of View. what a strapping young fella he is, to be sure!
Thank you
Major G. Codd 12th Gherkin Division, East Africa.
Did you see that Points of View when you could see his knob quite clearly through the material of his trousers?
It almost made me want to apply for an Irish passport.
I've heard he likes trees.
(jingles the bowl)
that we all just leave random comments in the hope of spreading a little humour?
were has sensible conversation and debate gone?
also... i too like terry wogan, and am sad i missed such an event to witness his manhood!!!
i like lemons,
ur pal always...jbyeats
De Bate was last seen in Tenerife, he got stoned and vanished. Some eye witnesses claim to have seen him swimming for Morroco, clutching a stork called Brian and shouting "Bus Parish!"
I don't know about you, but at around this time of night I like to hold a quails' egg aloft and campaign for the right to oggle Terry Wogan.
Lovely photos too, but I'd be too scared to go in there. No tthat I'm scared of heights, I just don't want those naughty papparaappapazzi to see my cellulite. Blast that Gloria Hunniford. Anyway, they've got one just like it in Belfast you know, but it's surrounded by men in trees, all dressed in ladies pants (the men, not the trees), feeding trolls.
Penis!
some of u are creeps. thats all i have to say.
I am going with the comments FTW!
StumbledUpon...
and I hardly think it is dangerous, its only dangerous if your reckless.
great waterfall, definitely on my bucket list
man. that's amazing. definitely something that seems worthwhile to go see. with my luck, I'll be the one to fall off the edge. haha.
Dumbass fundies!
All the makings of stupendous entertainment!
Where are all these exclamation points coming from?!!!
As for that waterfall it looks beautiful.
That's just me. Enjoy it as you will.
You should all be thanking Hizzoner for making your day more interesting.
And I'd be waaaaay too afraid to go in that damn pond! :O
Anyway, very neat and interesting photos. Personally, I'd be scared to go up there, but kudos to anyone who did/will. Beautiful waterfall, also.
And kudos to Moxie - you hit the nail on the head. I had a most entertaining 10 minutes of reading the idiocracy (a movie which all of you should watch) posted after one troll. It is very amazing to see how worked up people get over a religion based on false facts and ideals. You all brought a huge smile to my face. Thanks :D
Cool site of wholesale watches:

There are rocks stopping you from going over, you can of course jump over but that would be stupid!
The only thing going through mind was the geology of the location, Victoria falls does not stay in the same place, the falls have moved several kilometers upstream over time. My only concern was a drastic collapse of that section of the falls due to erosion, but that would be extremely unfortunate if that were to happen the moment I was swimming it in!
There is an island nearby that you go to by motorised canoe, it has a toilet surrounded by bamboo on three side, you can sit there and take a dump on top of Victoria falls, now that was awesome lol!
Omigawd!
I had hiccups before I read your rant and now I'm cured!
Thanks for that!
The funniest thing I've read in a long time!
The images it evokes....
Thanks!
it's still cool though
The pictures are cool. I could see one of my kids trying to get close to the edge if we were there, therefore the exercise of caution is probably a wise thing.
Hey Hizzoner, thanks for making the rest of us Christians look like idiots. There are enough Christians that do and say dumb things, and such a crazy comment on a website like this doesn’t help matters. Think before you speak, that is, if you really are a Christian yourself.

But how come this is a discussion about Christianity? (forgif my grammar, English is not my native language). Let's stick to the picks. I am loving it! and will post my pic, when I've been up there.

I think it's sad that people like Hizzoner exist, because in a round about way, they're NOT existing.
To think I could 'live' my life seeing everything in such a black and white manner is a sad and scary thought. Most of the religious people I have met have had some kind of underlying personal instability - I just thank my parents for letting me grow up using my own reasoning to guide my thought processes, rather than being methodically repressed by overbearing ill-informed parents.
