About the Picture Slideshow/Slide Show:
        Angel Falls or Salto Ángel is the world's highest free-leaping waterfall at 979 metres (3,212 feet) with an uninterrupted drop of 807 metres (2,648 feet). It is located on the Auyan Tepui river in the Canaima National Park of Venezuela

Angel Falls is located in the Guayana highlands,one of five topographical regions of Venezuela. It is 15 times higher than Niagara Falls.

The falls are named after Jimmy Angel (American) who first saw the falls in 1933 while searching for a gold ore.
He returned again in 1936 with his wife and landed his plane at the top of the waterfall. Angel's Falamingo monoplane settled down into the marshy ground atop Auyan-tepui and remained there for 33 years before being lifted out by a helicopter.

Jimmy Angel's plane can be seen in the Aviation Museum in Maracay.
