Daredevil Gallery & Museum

This is a tiny little museum near Niagra Falls that my fiancée had in his head was amazing, because as a child, his parents had taken him and his brothers here. We walked all over town looking for this museum as there is a ‘daredevil café’ that is on the opposite side of town. Once we finally got there, we went up to pay. I believe it was about $ 8 – 10 each, which would have been fine if it the museum had taken longer than about 10 – 15 minutes to walk through, and by walk through, I mean we read every word, some of them a couple times… the museum was teeny tiny. Scott said that he remembered it as being way bigger and cooler as a child. Apparently he must have grown since he was 10 years old. I do have to say that it was pretty cool seeing the things that they used to go down the falls in and which ones survived and which ones didn’t, but for $ 20 for two adults, it was not worth it. If it were cheaper or even free as someone else mentioned, I would say it is worth the 15 minutes it takes to get through it.

This «museum» is a tiny little tourist trap with a bunch of photos and a few artifacts to highlight the morons that have thought it was a good idea to ride a flotation device over Niagara Falls. For a nerd like me, this is a Unilocal 5 star business, but most of the other tourists there quickly lost interest and diverted attention to the cheesy niagara falls trinkets in the gift shop. The average person seemed to spend about 10 minutes looking at the ‘exhibit.‘
On display are several photos and news clippings of people that have gone over the falls, most of whom didn’t live. They also have a few of the barrels that were used in successful trips over the falls, and a jet ski and kayak from some guys that didn’t make it.
A lot of the niagara falls bus tours will stop by this place. Admission is free.
