The two highest waterfalls in the state of West Virginia are both underground in caves - I took the 12-hour caving trip to see the highest waterfall (Monster Falls, 110 feet) back in the year 2000.
Here are some other waterfalls from around the USA:

Here's another view of Palouse Falls, in Washington state. An amazing thing here is that originally, this falls was vastly larger - the water was several hundred feet deep at the rim, and it scoured out the deep gorge.
The tremendous flow was the result of Glacial Lake Missoula. Between about 18,000 and 13,000 years ago, glaciers dammed the Clark Fork River and a huge lake (3000 sq miles) formed behind it. Eventually the water eroded the dam and destroyed it, unleashing a flood of around 500 cubic miles of water over a period of days. This appears to have happened more than 40 times.
The peak flow of these floods was around 10 times the combined flow of all rivers in the world.
