The dangerous of Waterfalls
How dangerous of a waterfall? It will be looking great and charm everyday but it might turn to a demon at sudden.
My awareness comes from an email forwarded from a friend. After searching, I found the origin. It was published by Bobby Henderson and you can read the full story HERE.
Be very careful when playing near waterfalls. You just won’t know whether it’s raining upstream and by the time the water reaches the waterfall, it’ll be too late for you to run to safety.
This is truly very useful information that can save lives. I never knew this. If got change to visit water fall, just stay near the banks in case the water started to thunder down. I think I’ll be within safe distance of the banks.
Show these photos to our kids or students to avoid this kind of tragedy.
Thanks to Pearl Grass for the video of Hidden Dangers of Waterfalls Exposed. Here is the quote: -
The sudden gush of water phenomenon at waterfalls are fairly common and the main cause victims drowned. Therefore, this video exposes the ‘sudden gush of water’ phenomenon. It is hope that the more people are aware of this hidden danger, more lifes could be saved. Special thanks to Bobby Henderson, (http://blog.venganza.org/17.php), who were holidaying in Mag-Aso Waterfalls in Bohol, Philippines when he witnessed the sudden gush of water after a downpour and managed to take some invaluable photos along the way. Please help to spread this video. You may just save some life.
