We unpack the physics of waterfalls —ballistic jets, air entrainment, and cavitation—and explain why engineers are embracing rough, chaotic channels to save fish. From the waterfall’s temporary self-erasure to rock ramps that slow and rest the current, this episode reframes human progress through nature’s messy efficiency.
