The falls weren't stopped in 1969 just so some scientists could see "what was going on behind the falls". They were stopped because major errosion had already occured on the American falls, and it was determined that the rock face under the falls needed to be reinforced to prevent further, possibly disasterous, errosion.

[@MetalMama-zb4wg]

Exactly! I lived in Niagara Falls then. I was about 5 years old, but I remember. There were men suspended from ropes, spreading concrete to build up the surface. Funny how that wasn't even brought up in this story! Thank you for your post! 👍

[@keithhinchcliffe5629]

praytell, how is the erosion 'disastrous'?? Mankind interfered with Mother Nature's intent, which was, in all likelihood, the eventual elimination of the 'american' falls, probably transforming it into a long stretch of rapids.Thereby continuing it's destination with a single falls (horseshoe) as it had done for 10,000 years, beginning near Lewiston.

You say "The falls weren't stopped in 1969 just so some scientists could see "what was going on behind the falls".

[@moocowdad]

actually he is correct, it was already known that the falls were eroding dangerously, scientists didnt need to see what was happening ,when they stopped the falls large bolts were driven into the rockface by the army corps of engineers, very little if any rocks that had fallen were ever moved, as can be seen today, it was an awesome site to see back then, and maybe cut down on the caffeine a bit

[@1950Chimaera]

Actually the falls were caused by a pressure-relief uplift fault that popped up in a huge ring around the entire Great Lakes region. The release of pressure was caused by the gradual melting and removal of the terrific weight of the 1-2 miles thick continental ice sheet. The runoff from the GLs varied considerably because of the formation and natural erosion, as certain temporary river features came and went over the years, as the ice age warmed.

I am so glad the genius scientist along with the local people turned off the falls. They had to remove skeletons and coins which threatened to jam the falls and scare away tourists. After the falls were returned to their former flowing glory a law was passed forbidding the throwing of skeletons or coins into the river. The falls were saved!

[@rgfisher21]

They were saved in reality because they figured out the the falls are currently being held up by the rocks. Somebody made the suggestion to check and see if the large chunks at the bottom could be removed so the American Falls would have the same majestic look that the Horseshoe falls (AKA the Canadian Falls) presented. The intent was to remove all that debris that was ruining the looks of the falls. It was a commercial venture to increase the looks of the American Falls for tourist purposes. It didn't make sense to me at the time because you can't really see the full view of the American falls unless you are looking at them from Canada.

I’ve visited Niagara Falls many times. The time I remember very well was the summer a psychic predicted a portion would collapse, falling on a sight seeing boat, and killing many people. My parents and I were in Toronto, and decided to drive down to see if the prediction would come true. We were able to find a hotel with a room available. It had a balcony that faced the falls. As we drove into town, traffic was at a standstill. The vision was supposed to occur the following day. As nighttime fell, satellite trucks from all over North America were parking along the falls. Reporters were doing live feeds to their respective stations in Canada and the U.S. The next day was bright and sunny. The time arrived............... and nothing happened. In an instant, the satellite trucks were gone, the crowds thinned out, and it was a beautiful evening. We had dinner in the tower with the restaurant that evening. The falls were wonderful lit in all the different colors. We were glad we went.

[@Harvy500]

This just proves the word disturbing is over used and misunderstood.

[@robertphillips6296]

I don’t think they removed the stones at the base of the falls. I believe that they had to leave them there, because they determined that they were holding the rock face of the falls up and if they were removed then that side of the falls (the US side) would collapse. As far as I know the Canada side has the stable plunge pool on it and that is the side that people go over the falls in barrels.

[@roywarriner8441]

This isn't accurate. The reason they wanted to remove the rocks was to make that section of the falls was to make them more visually appealing. Once they stopped the flow and investigated they realized the rubble was shoring the cliff up. If they removed the rocks the cliff face would collapse. Reducing the flow at night and in the off season is to divert more water through the turbines. Also has the added benefit of slowing down erosion.

[@markhamrick9078]

The layer of rock at the top of the falls is much denser than those beneath. The water going over the falls is carving the less stable rock strata underneath this ledge, thereby loosening this weaker layer and creating the strewn boulders at the base of the falls. This natural 'carving' action has been going on since the creation of the Great Lakes and the Niagara gorge when the ice sheet retreated during the last ice age. This action has caused the falls to move upstream until they will eventually cease to exist when they reach Lake Erie.

One of my favorite parks is a state park not a national park. The name of the park is Johnson `s shut-in is a state park in Missouri. This river is so beautiful it's called the black river but it's actually a very pristine clear spring fed river that flows through the park. However the best and most fun part is that this section of the river forms 3 different pools of water each of which is at a different level and as you descend downstream the old volcanic rock formations create shouts of water between different formations of the rock and when the river level is just right you can sort of use them like water slides and some of these "WATER SLIDES" over the thousands of years have carved out small whirlpools that are like mini hot tubes on the way down to the second swimming area and then on your way down to the biggest of the 3 swimming areas the rock becomes wide enough and deep enough that you can ride a floating inner tube down through this section it's like a lazy river at a pool but instead floating into a pool you float into the biggest, deepest and coldest of the 3 swimming areas the river has formed. This is the very best area to swim in out of the 3 different levels you can swim in. I always swim back and forth across this swimming area. When you get to the middle of this swimming area the spring is coming up from the bottom of the river and it will take your breath away because its do cold just right there in the middle. Well if anyone decides to visit this park it's well worth the journey. It also has cabins and campgrounds about 2 miles up from the river and it's open year round so go have some fun and check it out. It's so very beautiful and pristine it will be worth the journey.

Not much of a natural wonder if we need to artificially keep it a natural wonder! Do we need to excavate the grand canyon to maintain its depth? Just chuck a few rocks on top of Everest to keep it looking special 😉

[@punothebear]

The Earth's climate is not static. It fluctuates over long spans of time. In addition, the continents drift. Evidently, many years ago, the Niagara area was farther north of its present location. The vineyards in the area make Ice Wine, one of the most delicious dessert wined you can find.

The rocks, How many people can say the have a rock from the bottom of Niagara falls. I have rocks from the Grand Canyon that were from the time of the dinosaurs.

[@245194LAC]

Sorry Yanks. The greatest part of the falls is in Canada. The largest of the three is Horseshoe Falls, also known as Canadian Falls, which straddles the international border between Canada and the United States. The smaller American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls lie entirely within the United States. Get your facts straight. But then, that would be a first.

[@growforit8736]

Where was that border.

[@charlesdjones1]

Whatever floats your boat, eh? Can't we just enjoy nature?

[@megaglock22]

That is true. My wife and I got our passports in 2017 just for that reason. If you really want to see the falls, then you need to go on the Canadian side. You can really view them so much better across the border. Plus, Canada offers so much more in entertainment than we do on the U.S. side! Another nice thing about it, you don't have to switch out our currency to theirs. Canadians love our cash, because it's actually worth a little more than theirs, and they can use it too! Problem with that, though, is the change given is in their currency! And it's nothing more than a neat souvenir to us when we cross back over, or get rid of it by spending it over there before you do come back home. Best to use a card, everything's converted automatically!

Not long after, the tears began to slowly run down my face! 😲

The falls generation plant was already there and they just modified the new one on top of theold one the question is who built the original. Because the narrative is that Europeans discovered America full of forest and wild Indians and that's it. There's 100s of such sites all over America that are far more ancient the America itself.

[@melaniemills4505]

In 1912, when Niagra Falls froze over some people were walking across when some ice broke apart...a young man named, Burrell Hecock and a married couple, the Stantons lost their lives when they went over the Falls...wonder if those skeletons were any of those people? 🤔

[@ZFK_VISUALS]

Unfortunately the hydro electric generation plant image shown was the Sir Adam Beck dam on the American side of the Niagara Gorge- about 2-3km downstream from the falls themselves. That is a separate dam for generation. On the Canadian side there is hydro electric generation plants right on the Horseshoe falls- which is what I'm sure was meant to be shown.

[@sdot5389]

Wrong. Sir Adam Beck (1&2) isn’t on the American side it’s on the Canadian side. It’s owned by Ontario Power Generation. The plant you are referring to in the American side (directly across the river from SAB) is Robert Moses, owned by the New York Power Authority. The one next to the falls on the Canadian side is small and is called the Niagara Parks Power Station….it generates very little power. SAB is the largest and diverts water from above the falls then through tunnels and canals and then drops it into the river gorge. This is the one he’s talking about. The one next to the falls is insignificant in terms of power generated compared to SAB or even Robert Moses and is more of a tourist attraction than anything these days.

A few bones and some coins and rocks??? You made me watch this for that. I could of told you this information. 🤦🏻‍♀️ The falls are absolutely stunning, my grandparents, her brother and sister and their partners all moved from Scotland to USA before I was born, I went over for 3 mths to see them meeting my Grandma (my grandad had passed) at the Canadian side of the falls to stay their for a week coming and then again leaving and I used to go out really early before all the people had got up, take the elevator down to the bottom shelf and sit for a few hours in the mist coming off the force of the falls which made it seem like it was drizzling all the time. I love the US and Canada 🇨🇦 and hate what's happening to 🇺🇸🦅America under the current administration, she's been taken to her knees. It's so sad to watch. blessings to all American patriots, from across the pond, Scotland. 🙏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌺
