Going to Angel falls seem unlikely anytime soon. I've been to Iguazu falls and indeed very impressive.

I read that you can only "see" Angel Falls from an airplane because the entire area has no roads that lead you to them?

BTW the person on Reddit still insists that the cascade in Switzerland is a waterfall.

I'm surprised that the Denmark Strait Cataract has never been filmed.

Assuming that you could get a reasonable video at that depth, and darkness of ocean would you be able to see the difference between the colder water flowing over the cliff?

No. You can take a river boat and come almost to the spot where the falls land. Very expensive, but can be done.
You can also come close to them by foot, after a "true explorers" hike and get close to them.
Of course, all view will be impressive. But I would say the boat ride would be the best.

Excuse me? When a Bengal tiger LOOKS VULNERABLE? They are the second largest feline one earth, weighting about 130 Kgs and measuring almost 3 meters. Vulnerable? I mean, a Bengal tiger died pink would still look menacing.
They are so incredibly beautiful. But still, yes. Amazing.
