This video shows when Niagara falls was frozen. Niagara falls never really gets frozen like this because of the tons of water that flows through it. only under extreme weather.
This is what happens when you jump off Niagara falls. Don't ever jump off of it.

my opinion
My opinion about the falls that they are an impressive feet. its just as tall as the statue of liberty but at least 6 times longer probably even longer. 4 of the 5 great lakes run through it, and carries over 3000 tons of water per second. its just that huge. I would never like to take a trip myself because its expensive, but it cost nothing to look it up, and admire it. its a huge key to our survival because it supply's us with about 18% of the worlds fresh water. 18% is a lot of water for one spot.
