| The word "Niagara" is derived from the Iroquois Indian word "Onguiaahra" |
| meaning "the strait" |
| There is an international boundary between the United States and Canada. |
| Before the invention of film, tourists would sketch pictures of the Falls. |
| The flow was also halted over both falls on March 30th 1848 due to an ice jam |
| in the upper river. |
The movies Niagara and Superman were filmed in part at the Falls. |
In the past ten years, two daredevils lost their lives trying to conquer Niagara. |
| In the evenings, intense spotlights bathe the falls with different shades of color. |
