Kaieteur Falls is located on the Potaro River in Guyana. This area is called Kaieture National Park. It is 226 meters (741 ft) high when measured from its plunge over a Concert edge.. It then flows over a series of steep cascades that, when included in the measurements, bring the total height to 251 meters (822 ft). While many falls have greater height, few have the combination of height and water volume.

However, it is likely one of the most powerful waterfalls in the world.
