Scientific Explanation
The real reason is based on physics and geography:
- The waterfall drops from a height of ~400 feet
- Strong wind currents in the valley scatter the water sideways
- Due to air pressure and terrain, droplets drift away before reaching the ground directly below
- So depending on wind direction, some people get touched, others don’t
