11. Devils Pool, Zambia

The Devil's Pool forms the lip of the Victoria Falls, Africa's highest waterfall, which borders Zambia and Zimbabwe. A lot of visitors have lost their lives trying to get the perfect view of the 355 foot cascade but that hasn't stopped the local tourism industry from stopping tourists from visiting it.

The Victoria Falls in the Zambia is home to the most Dangerous pool in the world. The naturally formed Devil’s Pool, near the edge of the falls on Livingstone Island on the Zambian side. When the river flow is at a certain level, usually between September and December, a rock barrier forms an eddy with minimal current, allowing adventurous swimmers to splash around in relative safety a few feet from the point where the water cascades over the falls.
Be warned.. occasional deaths have been reported when people have slipped over the rock barrier.


12. Stolen Chimney, Fisher Tower, USA

The Stolen Chimney is a route located on the Ancient Arts Tower, one of the Fisher Towers in Moab National Park, Utah. This is the most common route to ascend the Corkscrew Summit of the tower, which is the western most summit of the Ancient Arts tower but is not the tallest. The summit is noteworthy for its extremely unusual shape which makes climbing this technically different from most other climbs.

The summit stands at a height of 150 metres. Though this summit is not so high but the unusual shape and the climbing structure makes the task very difficult and fascinating for the people who love to enjoy that extreme adrenaline rush in the veins.

The path directly leads you to the Cork Screw Summit of the Ancient Arts tower and is well known as classic desert climb.
