A waterfall, defined by National Geographic, is a body of water that cascades down a cliff or rock face into a pool below. Waterfalls are formed through a process of erosion, and the waterfall itself is responsible for eroding the rocks and surfaces it flows down. Natural Disasters such as Volcanos and Earthquakes can help form waterfalls.
