The Angel Falls is the world’s highest waterfall at 979 meters and also the world’s highest single drop at 807 meters. It is located in the Canaima National Park, in the Gran Sabana region of Bolivar State, Venezuela.
Angel falls is so high that the water falling from it turns into mist before hitting the ground because of strong winds. It was discovered by American aviator James “Jimmie” Crawford Angel who flew over the falls on November 16 1933 while searching for a valuable ore bed.
