I always thought Linville Falls looked relatively small, but seeing those guys standing next to it really gives a sense of scale.

flyminion there’s nothing small about Linville Falls... not the height, the volume of water, or how deep the gorge it roars down is. Beautiful!!!

Didn't see anyone jump from this angle, but saw someone jump from a lower rock on 6-15-19 into that same pool below the falls after they did some serious scaling of the rocks to get there for one jump. Interesting how these guys got where they were to jump, not the easiest spot to get too.

Milepost 484 ive jumped from the same spot in the video. Its extremely difficult to get up there. The holds are very small and wet.

@@Toxicmony Did you simply climb up from the water or did you scale your way down from the top of the Falls?

A woman fell through all 3 tiers of Linville Falls back in the 1800s and died. The man trying to save her was injured but survived. In the 2010s, a professional kayaker made it through all 3 tiers as well. He said it was difficult at first, but he made it.

One could argue that courage has increased the fitness of our ancestors at times. Courage combined with logic (ie. knowing the water depth) may be more adventagous, from a Darwinian POV, than timid fear!

@@nickzav There's a pretty heavy fine for doing that. If the men were ever identified, the NPS would see to it.
