i dunno about that fast or why wouldnt it already have vanished..
I watched a documentry about it before showing the progress of the falls over thousand of years slowly moving up the river.. the guy was below the falls showing where the old falls used to be and he showed these interesting holes in the rocks, where 1 single pebble had fallen into a divet. then over hundreds of years of the river going by spinning the pebble around in a circle the pebble would bore a deep uniform hole in the rock, anyways he pulls the pebble out and drops it free , heh that poor pebble has been trapped in its own hole it bult itself for hundreds of years.. kinda trippy . dunoo if i explained it as interesting as it was to watch
lol
