JIMMIE ANGEL

The crash site of Jimmie Angel's Flamingo plane is inspected near Angel Falls, Venezuela, in this Oct.1937 photo. Angel Falls, the world's highest waterfall, was named after him because he was the first outsider to discover it in 1933. Venezuela wants to designate July 1 as Jimmie Angel day, the anniversary of the day Angel's ashes were scattered over Angel Falls in 1960. (AP Photo, Andres Mata Foundation,)
