Niagara Falls was not created by a natural disaster unless you count the last ice age as a "disaster". The Wisconsin glaciation caused the great lakes to form by sinking the land down and making the basins for the lakes and the falls themselves are a by product of there being a large cliff (the Niagara Escarpment) where the Niagara River happened to flow from Lake Ontario and Lake Erie.
Iguaza falls is larger then Niagra falls it is four times as wide and the water falls at 269 feet. Every second a huge amount of water comes thundering down.
Most people don't even realize that Niagra falls was CREATED BY GLOBAL WARMING. 27,000 years ago the ice started melting, when it was all the way down to Georgia. By about 18,000 years ago, the sheets had melted so much that Niagra falls was created. Around 12,000 years ago, both with the land "Bouncing Back" from not having Miles of Ice Sheets on top of it AND the Ice Sheets making a resurgance, the falls stopped flowing, but resumed around 10,000 years ago, in 2 places and by around 5000 years ago, so much water had melted, that the second falls, (which was around 200 miles West) was completely covered in Water, leaving only Niagra. Even TODAY, 99% of Niagra falls flows from Melting "FOSSIL" Ice, in other words the Sheets are CONTINUING to melt, JUST as they have for the past 27,000 years!
It falls and break
All the water falls back down to the ground.
None, actually. The international line runs down the Niagara River, which forms the falls.

120000mls down it goes
Annie Edson Taylor, a 63-year-old schoolteacher, was the first person to ride down Niagara Falls in a pickle barrel on October 24, 1901. Strapped in a leather harness inside the padded barrel, she plunged down Horseshoe Falls and picked up by a boat after. Since that first barrel ride, 15 people have attempted to ride the famous falls, 10 of those survived. Today it is illegal to ride down Niagara Falls.

They can. There are several down river from Niagara Falls.

Every night aliens come down and put lanterns under the falls. What did you think?
The water never dries up because four of the Great Lakes are feeding into the Niagara River.
