If you’re brave enough, you can swim in the Devil’s Swimming Pool – the world’s highest and most dangerous infinity pool at the very edge of Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. During the months of September to December, adventurous swimmers can splash around just a few feet away from where the waters of the Zambezi River cascade over the waterfall and plunge more than 100 metres into the gorge below. The pool does not have any barrier to protect swimmers from being swept over the edge of the falls.
Software engineer Francisc Stugren, 35, and his wife Angela, 30, visited the falls to celebrate their first wedding anniversary.
The American insisted the thrill was “better than bungee jumping”.
He said: “Being in the Devil’s Pool is a serious adrenaline rush for the first few minutes.
“The thought that you may get sucked away from the relatively calm waters of the pool and down the foamy hell into the pit makes you giddy with apprehension, although you have to stray far out quite a bit for that to happen.
“If you jump in it adds up to the excitement but you can also get in gently.
“Its great fun – some people enjoy it quietly, swimming, looking and thinking, while others just keep screaming.”
