| '''Midas Waterfall'''<ref>Pelland, Scott, and Kent Miller. ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' Player's Guide, page 28.</ref><ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 86, page 55.</ref> is a large, segmented waterfall that feeds the [[Midas River]] in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. After being flushed out of the [[Kero Sewers]], [[Mario]] and [[Mallow]] are flung down the falls. While letting himself be carried by the current (though it was also possible to swim slightly upstream, so as to slow down Mario's fall), Mario can try to grab [[coin]]s and [[Frog Coin]]s scattered all around the surface of water. The waterfall refers to a figure in {{wp|Greek mythology}}, {{wp|Midas}}, who is a king who turned everything he touched into gold. At the bottom of the fall, Mario and Mallow land on a [[Barrel#Other appearances in the Mario franchise|barrel]] floating in the Midas River.

| The waterfall reappears in the short book, ''[[Mario and the Incredible Rescue]]''. Mario, [[Luigi]] and [[Toad]] travel through the Midas River to get to [[Tadpole Pond]]. They get there after falling off the waterfall, an event that later inspires Mario to compose a song on the flute called ''"Falling Down a Waterfall"'', which he plays for [[Toadofsky|Toadofski]].
