题目内容：

The spectacular Victoria Falls links two countries, Zimbabwe and Zambia．It was discovered by David Livingstone in November 1855 and is known in the local language, as Mosi-oa-tunya, “the smoke that thunders”．It was Livingstone who named Victoria Falls after his Queen and stated in his own famous diary entry--- “Angels in their flight must have gazed．”

Adventure sports and a range of accommodation

The rustic（乡村的）Victoria Fall town--- just ten minutes from the Fall, and on the outskirts of the Zambezi National Park--- has all facilities necessary to act as a base for exploring the region．Accommodation is plentiful--- from low budget campsites to luxury hotels．

And across the border in Livingstone, Zambia, visitors will find a town suitable for the adventure sports enthusiasts with lots of travel and adventure sports companies．

Victoria Bridge--- the third highest Bungee jump in the world

At a height of 364 feet, the Victoria Falls Bridge, completed in 1905, is the world’s third highest Bungee jump, though the scream factor is arguably the loudest, making it a great draw-card for adventure sports enthusiasts．While dropping into the abyss (深渊), you will be blasted with spray from the thundering Victoria Falls, and then jerked (猛烈) back to reality within inches of the swirling eddies (漩涡) of the Zambezi below．

How to enjoy the Victoria Falls Experience--- take to the sky’s and the water

Anyone can pay an entrance fee and walk around the ridge of Victoria Falls and take some good pictures to send home, but to truly experience the size and scope of the spray, you’ve got to get airborne, and there are options--- tame and a little wild: fixed wing planes, helicopters, microlights．
