What waterfalls allow you to walk or climb behind them?

I've heard of only a handful of these, such as Dry Falls in Georgia, but I know you would have much more experience in the matter. My husband and I also love waterfalls, and we hope to find several, particularly in North America, that we can climb behind for a unique vantage point.

We've been to many of these...

There's definitely a long list of waterfalls that allow you to go behind it. So allow us to name some of the ones that we've been able to go behind.

These are Steinsdalsfossen, Seljalandsfoss, Storseterfossen, Ponytail Falls, South Falls, Lower South Falls, North Falls, Middle North Falls, Paddy's River Falls, Staubbach Falls, Giessbach Falls, Huangguoshu Waterfall, Nobe Young Falls, and recently I was able to go behind Panther Falls.

I'm sure there are others that I've missed, but this ought to give you an idea that there are way more than "a few" of these around the world.

In fact, if you understand how waterfalls are formed, you'll come to see it's the older waterfalls that usually allow for you to go behind them.
