Venezuela's Angel Falls, the world's tallest waterfall, appears to disappear mid-air due to a combination of physics and environmental factors. As water plunges nearly a kilometer from the Auyán-tepui tabletop mountain, air resistance breaks the stream into fine mist. Strong winds scatter this mist, and heat causes rapid evaporation, meaning only a small portion of the water reaches the ground. This phenomenon, known as water atomization, is most pronounced during dry seasons.
