Swept over a waterfall? - niagara blunt wrap
If someone through a cascade, that is swept, Niagara Falls, Victoria Falls, Iguazu Falls. Is it possible to survive. I have heard that the immediate cause of death is often hemorrhagic shock (trauma, internal) and traumatic brain injury, but can be controlled with the start of treatment. One person survived the swim from Niagara Falls. What are the chances of survival in Victoria and Iguazu Falls

It is not too high. I have a few months ago I heard about a man (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0, 2933.1006 ... swimming at the Niagara Falls and survived, fins, the maneuver was illegal. Do not try something stupid like that.
Please do not, that is the bottom of a waterfall is often so shallow you can stand it no problem, so if you go over the rocks hit him, causing serious injuries and the impact of trauma slowdown if you fall, and there is an abrupt end what rutpure internal organs. This leads to internal bleeding, bleeding, hemorrhagic shock, the aorta is particularly susceptible to this phenomenon. Bleeding was often the cause of death in high-altitude falls. They can survive? Perhaps, but the chances of survival more than a bath or Niagara Falls or Victoria Falls are extremely thin! So do not try!
I can not say what the chances are statistically, but there are many factors to consider - the water level and temperature, athletics, swimming, in general, if they have protective equipment as a helmet. Strong effects have to start May, the aorta from the heart, death is almost immediate. I think a good thing, to be supplied with an experienced diver a realistic chance of success, but the average Joe is screwed.
