4 years later the plane with Jimmie Angel and his three companions, including his wife, was damaged when the wheels sank into the marshy ground, while Angel tried to land his monoplane at the peak of the Auyantepui mountain. It took them 11 days to make their way back to civilization, but news of their adventure spread, and the waterfall was named Angel Falls in his honor.
