#1 It’s seen its fair share of battles
It would be weird to see a war break out with our Canadian neighbors, but back in the day, the whole region of Niagara was very prone to armed conflict. Not only would there be conflicts around the area, but in the area as well, and there have been armies marauding and battling there once every generation. Because of all the battles, the people who lived near the falls in 1812 most likely heard their fair share of gunshots.
The region also witnessed battles between England and France as they attempted to gain an advantage in the region, as well as the end of the American Civil War! It seems like only in the last few decades have the falls managed to be peaceful!
