Guyana
Four times taller than the Niagara Falls, the majestic Kaieteur Falls in Guyana sits in the Amazon Forest. At a dizzying 741 feet, it is also known as the world’s largest single drop waterfall!
That looks like a lot more than one drop of water.
Hey quick question but why does it look like one of the Plagues
For people asking about the colour:
(1) time of day and lighting plus angle. This isn’t thé only red photo out there, but it’s certainly one of the most striking I’ve seen.
(2) the water flowing into it is very brown, there’s a lot of sediment in it. Conglomerate and sandstone is the mix I saw listed when I checked.
(3) the foam mixing in will make the brown colour lighter which can make it easier for us to pick out the red elements
(4) waterfall is haunted.
“At the base of Kaieteur the force of the falling water creates a weird phenomenon – constant hurricane. There are constant waves in the small pond, the air is full with fleeces of foam gyrating chaotically. The wind is pulling the visitors and it seems that the day is grey and stormy. But – as one leaves the base of falls – it turns out that the sun is shining and all trees stand calmly.”
Hope that helps for anyone looking through for the answer!
Am I the only one whose eyes went straight to the very large birds first?
This already looks like a portal to hell with demon raptors circling it and you’re telling me there’s also a PERMANENT HURRICANE down there??
Okay so yes it looks scary but also it looks so fucking gorgeous. Nature is so fucking cool oh my god
