I think that's what it is Mako. There's a movie out with Jack Nicholson, him and a buddy are dying, and they set out to do all the things they wanted to do before they die. I didn't see it, someone told me about it. It's called the bucket list, so one could assume.
This vid, gave me the willies. No effing way could I do that. I'm such a chicken!
Actually think this vid is pretty cool... the way that water is boiling around means you're in a definite 'pool' and unless the wall at the far end gives way, should be pretty safe. Would love to do it...
That crane vid REALLY gave me the willies though - could barely watch it
It's Victoria Falls on the Zambesi River on the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia. This 'pool' can only be reached from the Zambian side and is only available for brief periods of the year when the water is at just the right hight. I have a Zambian stamp in my passport just because I crossed over from Zim to swim in the exact same spot eight years ago. It was over an hours walk from the bridge - but so worth it! It's a straight drop of over 100m behind these guys and a raging torrent just a couple of meters to the right.
Zis is NOT ze most dangerous svimming pool in ze world!
Believe me - ze most dangerous svimming pool in ze world is ze Gellert Spa in Budapest. In ze summer, all ze tourists cavort und disport zemselves in ze varm healing vaters, laughing und splashing like little children. Zey bask in ze sun's rays und tell each other brave travellers' tales. Ze fat loud Americans, ze tiny gibbering Japanese, ze ekvally tiny Koreans vith zere video cameras strapped to zere heads - all are zere in ze vater.
But also in ze vater are ze Roma - or Gypsies as zey are popularly known. Zey are not in ze vater to play und become healthy. Nein! Zey are vot is known in central Europe as "arse bandits".
Ze Roma men svim under ze vater und insert zere private parts in ze anus of ze tourists who are enjoying ein jacuzzi. Zen zey steal zere vatches und rings. und run avay cackling as only ze Roma can ven zey haf acxhieved ze tvin goal of sexual gratification und easy money.
Someone tossed a rebel in the drink many a moons ago and e' didn't go ore,' he swim back, so now we swim too. Once upon a time a friend go swimmin dare, he got swept away. We log what day it was and don't go after den.
A man walks into a post office one day to see a middle-aged,
balding man standing at the counter methodically placing
"Love" stamps on bright pink envelopes with hearts all over
them. He then takes out a perfume bottle and starts spraying
scent all over them.
His curiosity getting the better of him, he goes up to the
balding man and asks him what he is doing. The man says
"I'm sending out 1,000 Valentine cards signed, 'Guess who?'"
canuck1963 i have to disagree they are in one of the most beautiful places on earth (I think it could be Victoria Falls Africa) if you or anyone else has experience this maybe you to would jump in as well?
ok, and stupid is as stupid does? You know there are better ways to appreciate beautiful places rather then putting your stinky body into them! And Victoria Falls does NOT need stupid humans jumping into them. Scares away the wildlife and well just plain ruins your pictures having a moron jumping into the falls.
