I came across some videos taken in Eritrea and they're now
available for viewing. They are in the .mov format and should be able to be
played in most video playback software. The filesizes are 1-2 megs so it would
be best if you downloaded them to your hard drive and viewed them from there. I
also zipped them into a 10 meg file if you want to download all of them at
once. Sorry there is no sound.
- Dave Nelson sent in this video of the Tisisat Falls from 1972.
Those Falls are know by local Ethiopians as the
Tisisat Falls and literally means "Smoking Water" and located about one hour
from the city of Bahar Dar, Ethiopia and 20 miles south of Lake Tana Ethiopia.
They are also called "Blue Nile Falls" because it is where the head waters of
the Blue Nile cascades over a cliff face and into the gorge, thus Tisisat
Falls. A real site to see. The Russians built some Hydro Plants for the Ethies
and that has impeded the flow over the cliffs. Its probably one of the best
Natural wonders.
