The following are lists of waterfalls in the world by height, classified into two categories — natural and artificial. Natural waterfalls are further subdivided between overall height and tallest single drop. Each column (Waterfall, Height, Locality, Country) is sortable by using the up/down link in the column headings at the top of each column.

With water falling up to 175 feet (53 m) from the top of the falls to the shallow basin below, it is the highest waterfall in Texas. [4] [1] Heights of 150 feet (46 m) and an estimated 170 feet (52 m) have also been given for the waterfall, but Capote Falls would still be the highest waterfall in Texas at 150 feet tall.

A waterfall is included if it has an existing article specifically for it on Wikipedia, and it is at least 15 m (50 ft) high, or the falls have some historical significance based on multiple reliable references. There is no standard way to measure the height or width of a waterfall.
The World Waterfall Database lists 7,827 as of 2013, but this is likely incomplete; as noted by Hudson, over 90% of their listings are in North America. Many guidebooks to local waterfalls have been published. [3] There is also no agreement how to measure the height of a waterfall, [1] or even what constitutes one. [3]
