The Denmark Strait Cataract, located in the underwater channel between Iceland and Greenland, has the distinction of being the tallest waterfall on Earth. This submarine waterfall drops an astonishing 11,500 feet (3,500 meters) from its summit to the sea floor. With a vertical drop of 6,600 feet (2,000 meters), it is higher than the world's tallest land-based waterfall, Angel Falls, which is a little over 3,200 feet (979 meters) high. Despite its size, the Denmark Strait Cataract remains hidden beneath the waves and is undetectable from the surface.
