Highest (natural) dam on earth

In addition to man-made dams (see table above), there are also valley barriers caused by landslides. The largest of these is the Usoi Dam in Tajikistan (Asia), which was created in an earthquake in 1911 and has since dammed Lake Saress . With a height of about 567 m, it is significantly higher than any artificial dam on earth:
