5. all i know is Venezuela
if you can translate this you'll know more than me.

Von einem der Tafelberge stürzt sich der höchste Wasserfall der Welt -der Angel Fall - gleich 1000 Meter in die Tiefe.

Entdeckt wurde er durch Zufall. Der gleichnahmige Buschpilot (Angel) stieß nach einer Notlandung auf das Naturwunder.

6. Freetranslation.com says...
Of one of the chalkboard mountains, the highest waterfall of the world falls itself -the hinge case - immediately 1000 meters into the depth.

Discovered it became through chance. The gleichnahmige shrub pilot (hinge) knocked after a need landing on the nature miracle.

I think I'm going to title my next CD "On the Nature Miracle"!

7. Rough Translation
From atop one of the "Table Mountains," or mesas, the highest waterfall of the world--Angel Falls-- falls over 1,000 meters to the depths below.

It was discovered by chance. The bush pilot Jimmie Angel accidentally made the find after an emergency landing near this natural miracle.

4. It's a metaphor, I think,
for where America is headed.
