Video Of A Woman Leaning Over Edge Of 360-Feet-Tall Victoria Falls is both scary and exhilarating
If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine, it’s lethal. In the world of adventure, no task seems impossible—from rafting in a raging river or climbing steep rocks. Recently, a video has surfaced of a tourist leaning over the edge of Victoria falls- one of the world’s largest waterfalls between the Zambia-Zimbabwe border. It is a well-known tourist activity and only daring visitors can only attempt this.
This is made possible when the flow of the Zambezi river is slow and people are able to access Devil’s Pool, a shallow pool naturally created close to the edge of falls. Visitors are allowed to venture near Devil’s Pool from June to December, but only when the river flow is safe and weak.

The video has triggered an array of reactions on the internet. A user asked, “PLEASE tell me there are reliable tethers around her ankles! (I suspect there are since the camera doesn’t show her lower legs.”
Another user wrote, “As a person who lives near Yosemite and I must hear about the people who ignore signs for a photo op being swept over the falls to their deaths. The look in their eyes as they frantically search for purchase on the slippery rocks is something you never want to see or remember!”
The third user wrote, “Scares the shit out of me by just looking at it.”
The fourth user wrote, “Nah I would never. Bunk the video, bunk the picture. My life is on the line right here, you ain’t making it if that water pushes you off lol. I’m sorry.”
