979 meters tall and is found in Canaima national park. It was named after its discoverer Jimmy Angel when he discovered it on a flight in his plane but at first no one would believe him because of the length he claimed it to be and everyone said it was impossible. It wasn't until later that it was proven he wasn't lying and that the waterfall did ex- ist so it was later named angel falls.
Angel falls was also the inspiration for the location “paradise falls” in the 2009 film up were it was the main setting for the majority of the movie.
