Spooky 
If you’re ever in Zimbabwe, don’t miss the chance to take a swim in The Devil’s Pool, a small lagoon, enclosed by rocks, on the edge of one of the biggest, most beautiful waterfalls in the world, Victoria Falls. Set on Livingstone Island, at a height of 103 meters, Devil’s Pool is definitely one of the most surreal locations on Earth.

I have fished in the Zambesi among the hippo’s, close to the pool but you would not get me in the water.
That was very impressive, but dangerous game too!! I hope they really enjoyed and got safe home too. Costa Rica has some waterfalls too, maybe you want to see them with solidamerica.com.
I’m terrified of heights. I could never do that.
i may only be 15 but the aduls who take thier children on this are frankly stupid and are not looking after thier children. imean how would they feel if their child just sliped over the edge they would never forgive themselves, i think that this is wrong.
The pool is actually accessed from the Zambian side of the river. For most of the year, anyone venturing into Devil’s Pool would be swept over the edge by the raging torrent in a heartbeat. But during the dry season, the waters of the Zambezi River slow enough that bathers can swim in relative safety.
That looks so bloody cool but … whoah! [faints]
are they willing for death?
crazy people…
Looks like pictures of niagra falls ny edited to look like someone in water! If you were really in fast moving water like this you would peril on the rocks below , bjut nice edit job lol

P.S. Nice pictures!
Beautiful place but look danger to me
I know it’s not dangerous since they let people do it but it seems like it WOULD be dangerous- the rocks look so slippery.
it s panoramic view with a splashing water that i use to hear when the water fall down . hey there is not only the devils-pool but the devils rock as well in morocoo it s a spot for the surfer.
Kids are smart, they won’t go over. Kids know how to hold on tight. :3
And I bet there’s not much water pressure for whatever reason, because that’s the only way that first guy would ever be posing like that. It looks sort of like.. leaning over a balcony or something. But I still wouldn’t be able to stand on the edge like that second dude, personally. *A*
What a crazy place!
Wow those are some wild pictures! I don’t think I would get so close to the edge as they are.
I feel sick butI would love to go there.
Even though it looks super crazy, I would still want to go there; I am afraid of heights too! Those are some beautiful pics!
I love waterfalls. Looks like it would be such an amazing place to visit. I’m scared of heights so I don’t know that I’d go as close as what some of the people did, but wow what an experience!
Do you know where I can find the best colorado flies?
Great post. Thanx for sharing.I really enjoy it! looking forward to more.
that looks safe..if gion to try it!
I don’t get why all of these people call this so ‘dangerous.’ Live a little already. It’s a still-water pool and common sense shows if you don’t jump off of it, you’re not going to fall. If you’re a good parent you watch your kids anyway, so calling them ‘crazy’ for letting their kids in with them must mean you people leaving comments must not take care of your children very well!
Is this safe??? How are those people not falling off the edge?
I had seen this on TV some time ago but my wife sent this link to me and I must agree with her when she says….”NOT NO, HELL NO!”
Devil’s Pond looks like an incredible place and yet another reason to visit Africa. Thanks for posting the vertigo inducing photos!
The edge that keeps the thrill seekers from falling over to their death will eventually give way to the water pressure, the rocks will slide or they will dislodge…The Falls have receded several miles over millions of years, so this is FACT. It is certain that one or more people will eventually slip or otherwise fall to their deaths.
It is stupid to say that “it must be safe otherwise why would they let people do it”…take bungee jumping for example…skydiving…those things are NOT fool proof and plenty of people die each year.
I’m not against this, I just don’t think its smart to say that there’s no danger involved. And if I let my kids do it, I would want safety procedures taken, such as harness and rope tied to them, secured to land…
Damn. No Way!! I terrified of waterfalls and dams. you ain’t getting me near that thing!!
Fantastic… I love these places of willd energy… Take me there
hell that looks skarey
Wow!!!
Wow what an amazing place. It would make me a little nervous, but if you have the chance you have to get in.
Truly incredible and is now on my list of places to visit.
Now I understand why it is called the devil pool. Just looking at the picture makes me need to take a deep breath. I think it’s crazier than bungee jumping but I love to visit there before I die. hehehe…
I’d like to go there!!! , but I don’t know why they would call it the Devil’s pool?!!!!!
holly heck! bonkers!
wao whats dangerous river. i surprise when i see a child on river.
That looks totally amazing and I can imgaine it is the same feeling I get standing on a ledge at the top of Scottish mountian. But for anybody to say that know one has ever went over the edge before, YEAH RIGHT!
me too dip shits
[...] know it’s not exactly Victoria Falls, but this waterfall is definitely not a safe place to jump dive. If someone told me a guy jumped [...]
This looks beautiful but crazy…
This is awesome but scary especially with the children so close to the edge…
That place looks amazing. I need to go check it out sometime in the future.
damn this is scary as hell.
those people got the nuts to stand there and pose.
Devil’s Pool is absolutely AMAZING! I actually did this activity on my trip to Victoria Falls last year and it’s one of the most amazing things I’ve ever done. It definitely makes you feel ALIVE! Check out my video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n09SCEfPbv4

Η λίμνη του θανάτου βρίσκεται στον καταρράκτη Victoria Falls και κάποιοι κάνουν μπάνιο εκεί. Δείτε τις εντυπωσιακές φωτογραφίες….
