Don't forget the Tennessee River.  It is the largest, by far, and the 
most dangerous.

sweep you right under the tree..I live 7 miles from one of the biggest 
rivers that runs through Alabama,(The Tallapoosa) and about 25 miles 
from the other, (The Coosa) and I've heard of a lot of drownings from 
things like those trees..Or, around here, those bass boats with twin 
225 hp Motors, or Fast Jet skis that will do about 70 mph round a bend 
and don't realize that a huge 100+ long pine tree had JUST fallen in 
the water.. Don't take them long to turn loose of those boats and/or 
Jet Skis.. Chuck
