A famous feature of Victoria Falls is the naturally shaped "armchair" (sometimes called "devil's pool"), near the edge of the falls on the Zambian side, along the western tip of Livingstone Island.
When the river's flow reaches a certain level, usually between September and December, a rock barrier forms a whirlpool with minimal current, allowing adventurous swimmers to splash safely past the point where the water cascades over the falls. One death of a tour guide has been reported. Source (
