#1 Rule About Waterfalls
A few years back I made this rule:
"Anytime I find a waterfall, I'm getting in it"

Within reason, and when safety permits, I've been in some pretty outrageous waterfall situations. 
Most the time waterfalls end up being freezing cold water. 

This waterfall in Yosemite is one of the very few that I wasn't able to get directly into because it would have crushed me.
My rule did coax me to go very far off the path and hike near enough the waterfall where I got drenched anyway.

It's a simple fun life rule that's led to dozens of outrageous memories with friends. You'll be the one jumping into waterfalls when most are just looking on from a distance.

Try this rule out next time you're at a waterfall. Just get in the water. I promise it will make it more memorable

NICE! Nothing beats moving water.  dang a waterfall in the heat sounds way better than ice water. I kinda hate cold water to be honest.

So how do you get warm again after jumping in cold water? I assume sometimes the weather isn't super warm either. What's your favorite fall so far (if you can pick just one)?  I recently jumped in a cave pool in DR that was very cold but it was so hot out that it felt really refreshing. It was very scary as I was pretty high up and while the pool was very deep, it wasn't that wide. I was the first to jump in our group because everyone else chickened out, but man, it was terrifying yet thrilling! I bet you've had some great jumps!

My favorite fall is Yosemite falls because it's so powerful it's deafening and you can feel it move you. I went at night this year when nobody was there and it became my favorite. 

Nice jump, Sounds like a blast. where is DR?
