Ever wonder what made Niagara Falls such a fabulous place to visit? Join us for a historical trip back in time to see how the Falls have evolved over thousands of years and about the daredevils/people who have tried to conquer them. Experience some events that have helped shape our fair city into such a popular place to visit such as the old scow and the dramatic rescue of the two men stranded for many hours and interesting facts about the Falls themselves.

History of Niagara Falls	The Falls
Infamous Daredevils	Old Scow (Sand Barge)

Niagara Falls straddles the Canadian-United States International Border and both in the Province of Ontario and the State of New York, Niagara Falls attracts some 12 Million tourists annually. Niagara Falls is the second largest falls on the globe next to Victoria Falls in southern Africa. One fifth of all the fresh water in the world lies in the four Upper Great Lakes-Michigan, Huron, Superior and Erie. The entire outflow empties into the Niagara River and eventually cascades over the falls. Man has not been able to completely control the flow of the water over the falls, even modern engineers have tried. Much of the water today is fed through underground channels and pipes to nearby hydro electric power stations.
