Two options to climb up a waterfall.
1. swim really really really fast, really.
2. Wait till it's frozen. See the Ice & Alpine section.

Dan Osman does a free solo, with ice axes, a wet suit and face mask, straight up the guts of a raging white water fall.

So if people don't climb unfrozen waterfalls, why do they make dry ropes?

If 5 is the one with the tribute part of it might be in it, but it is 4 that it originally was in. In DVD it is scene 7. Its at Eagle Falls, Lake Tahoe.
