CHAPTER

The Most Incredible Natural Landmarks in the World

On 6th August 1918, Gustav Loffberg and Frank Harris went out to clear the banks of the Niagara River on board the Scout. When it was time for the Scout to go back to shore, the line attaching it to its tugboat broke and the boat began floating towards the Falls. The men managed to stop the boat on some rocks which they held onto to avoid falling over the waterfall. Eventually, the fire department and coast guard arrived to rescue the men from the boat. The wreck of the Scout is still in the river today, reminding people of the experience the two men went through. A visit to Niagara Falls is a truly unforgettable experience. You won't go away disappointed.
