hi mate, please mark me as brainliest
Explanation:
Angel Falls in Venezuela is the world's tallest waterfall, with a total height of 3212 feet (979 meters). This total height includes a single uninterrupted drop of 2648 feet (807 meters), plus 564 feet (172 meters) of steep cascades and smaller drops downstream from the main falls. [1]
The waterfall was measured in 1949 by surveyor Perry Lowrey, during an expedition funded by National Geographic and led by Ruth Robertson. [1]
The single uninterrupted drop of 2648 feet is also the world's highest. Angel Falls holds two world records: 1) the waterfall with the greatest total height, and, 2) the waterfall with the greatest uninterrupted drop.
