3Devil’s Pool, Victoria Falls, Zambia/Zimbabwe

Located at the edge of Victoria Falls, one of the largest waterfalls in the world, Devil’s Pool is a natural infinity pool that allows thrill-seekers to swim right on the edge of the cascading water. With a drop of over 100 meters (328 feet), the experience is both exhilarating and terrifying.

However, the currents are strong, and one wrong move can lead to being swept over the edge of the falls. There have been numerous fatalities, often when people misjudge the power of the water or fail to adhere to safety guidelines. Despite the risks, Devil’s Pool remains a bucket-list destination for many adventurers.
