Victoria Falls – Swimming on the Edge

Somehow this picture really bothers me. Especially when you watch the video below and realized how utterly amazing this must be. I don’t really have much of a fear of heights but my heart begins to race just thinking about doing this. Especially with a small child. This photo is not faked! They are swimming in a natural rock pool called Devil’s Pool at the very top of Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe.

From September to December each year, when the water levels are low, it is possible (and they say safe) to swim in this naturally formed pool at the edge of this amazing 360-foot falls.
