It is a tiered waterfall consisting of 6 major drops totaling {{convert|1920|ft}}, the longest single drop being {{convert|500|ft}}.[1] It ranks on many lists as the twelfth-highest waterfall in the world,{{Citation needed|date=January 2009}} although in truth it is roughly the sixtieth-tallest, as most weaker waterfalls do not make it into such lists. Despite its immense height it has a relatively low drainage and is usually dry by July.
