"The trees that try too hard to stand up strong and straight are the ones that break. The only ones that make it through are the ones that bend and flow and let it go." - Julia Butterfly Hill
You are my favorite person in the world. You fought a battle that makes sense, instead of fighting for oil or gold or diamond mining. You, as a daughter of Gaia spirit mother earth. You demonstrated what we've been all missing. I thank you from South Africa 🇿🇦 and I would have joined you.
I agree, She is a Young Beautiful Charming Lady The Mental Problem of her is she is a Tree Hugger and not a Person Hugger, and definitely kinky sex that is Hugging a 🌲😂😂
My girlfriends and I started a Covid 19 bookclub and this is our very first book to read together. (we have been friends for over 20 years and although we are all tree huggers by nature, I am THE TREE HUGGER. We still admire your strength, courage and tenacity to right what was WRONG. I am recommending this book to my other book club as well. I wish I would have known about this sooner, with me being a NorCal girl and all. Love to you, Julia.. As I battle ovarian cancer, I think of your fight and it gives me strength.
I was infatuated with this woman. I'm afraid of heights, so I found her adventure to be exhilarating, fascinating and impressive. What a beautiful human.
Very wise words, I also follow the same “fighting the storm” techniques that Julia talks about. But it's great that someone is voicing this. She expressed her thoughts very beautifully. And overall, she is an incredible person who commands respect and admiration
I remember a huge storm, and working at a local TV station I worried about you very much. I helped my reporter climb and do one of the few local tv station videos. I knew the danger as, when a child returns to his forest and finds a few of his huge trees have come down after a storm, it makes quite an impact. Michael
Being a tree hugger myself, this, to me, is the most impressive thing for a human to ever do, I mean truly. The act of living on a tree is a profound ordeal in any scenario. To do it for the love of nature, amidst all the politics surrounding it is truly one of the best acts ever for a human being. I have faced numerous challenges from society for my naturalist tendencies and decisons. You give me courage and inspiration, Julia.
Awesome epiphany; it's true too, that once you surrender yourself to the ravages of nature, you're more likely to survive the tempest and come out with a greater understanding of not only yourself, but of life and death.
Her story just inspired a new musical on Broadway in New York City right now. It's inspired by her story, and it starts the actress and singer Idina Menzel!!
Si los gobiernos del mundo, tuvieran una pizca de valor y amor por la naturaleza, cómo lo tiene ella......el mundo sería un vergel!!! If the governments of the world had a bit of courage and love for nature, as she does...the world would be a garden!!!
Can’t believe she actually did it and won. That’s how you do it. True motivation. These days you have losers on social media declaring a hunger strike and just giving up a day later
Reminds me of that other julia, actress julia ormand. Anyhow she has the will of iron yet with the flexibility of a reed that bends with the wind but props right back up afterwards. Thanks julia, you inspire me.
Its amazing how hard you will fight to save your own life even when you think you've given up on everything everyone including yourself until that one moment comes along and you say HELL NO! Im not ready yet ..
She is a rare type of a person, if you will give option to the people of what she did. 99% won't leave their comfort zone to do that. But the worst part of it, was the company who tried to cut the old tree that survives harsh climate and been there older than our ancestors. May her tribe increase ❤❤
Julia Lorraine "Butterfly" Hill(born February 18, 1974) is an American environmental activist and tax redirection advocate. She is best known for having lived in a 180-foot (55 m)-tall, roughly 1500-year-old California redwood tree for 738 days between December 10, 1997 and December 18, 1999. Hill lived in the tree, affectionately known as Luna, to prevent Pacific Lumber Company loggers from cutting it down. She is the author of the 2000 book The Legacy of Luna and co-author of One Makes the Difference.
Like most of the old hippies I once knew she moved on...Hers due to health reasons....Julia did good but you can only do so much before you pass the torch to other people..
she said some crouching tiger hidden dragon shit! let go and flow. but this is real ! the movie scene is what i picture. wow what an amazing human! what powerful connection to higher purpose! thank you!

She is everything
A real Goddess 😍

Julia, the world needs more people like you! Thank you!

Hope you win your battle!
Hope you took the vaccine . . love & kisses
The depth of this person is unfathomable.
I used to be like her and then I got on psych meds and now life is safe. I miss myself though.
@@heidimichellemoenkhaus3569damn you fell off
@@heidimichellemoenkhaus3569sorry but you never were like her.
It’s actually super common for women to be this deep and multi faceted. We start thinking about life at really young age
@@heidimichellemoenkhaus3569you can still be yourself. Try psychedelics
She is so brave.
Just get rid of attachments and you'd be surprise how "brave" you become, if not desperate.
ong
So young, yet so wise
one of the few people where it's so easy to see her beautiful spirit. so many are closed off, selfish, and rude.
🥲
💚 The wisdom, the passion, the love... wow! Julia is such a beautiful soul!
Sometimes you have to break away from everyone and everything to get to this level of intellect. Society does something to us.
What a spiritual thinking she had achieved up there. Truly amazing. Very few people have abandoned fear like her in this world.
I was infatuated with this woman. I'm afraid of heights, so I found her adventure to be exhilarating, fascinating and impressive. What a beautiful human.
Julia you are the real human being.
This is a real HERO 💖💫💫💫Thank you so much Julia Hill for protect this beautiful tree❤
Very wise words, I also follow the same “fighting the storm” techniques that Julia talks about. But it's great that someone is voicing this. She expressed her thoughts very beautifully. And overall, she is an incredible person who commands respect and admiration
I love you Julia. Thank you for teaching us all that lesson ❤
We so need people with soul compassion and love like her x she's wonderful
why shes so beautiful? everyone who saw her couldnt help to fall inlove with her with her beauty inside out.
Authenticity is beautiful.
Your lesson is so deep: "The only ones that make it through are the ones that bend and flow and let it go!"

How have they not made a movie on this!!??? Wow!! I'm amazed at her story just wow 700+ days 💯👊😯😯😯
👍 this would be one of the greatest movies ever
they did and it was making fun of her.
I’m speechless. What a wonderful learning experience to share with us all. She’s so wonderful wise strong and brave. Ultimate femininity. ❤
Huge respect for this woman!

You are amazing and beautiful, just like the trees themselves. Thank you for the inspiration.
This is truly amazing. She's a hero
I absolutely love it. I am so jealous of the experience of living in and with Luna for over two years.
Just found this video Julia, thank you and hope you're doing well
That’s incredible. She has my respect
❤ Thank you so much to be who you are ❤
Would love to see you on a TED talk. Saw you at College of the Redwoods maybe in 1999 or 2000.

I love her spiritual admiration 😊
My Hero🦋🌲🙏🏼Everyone really should go to the forest alone and touch & hug the trees!
Thank you.
I wonder if she ever saw a Squatch walking by looking up, waiving, then walking away to do bigfoot stuff.
Awesome epiphany; it's true too, that once you surrender yourself to the ravages of nature, you're more likely to survive the tempest and come out with a greater understanding of not only yourself, but of life and death.
she is great. i remember when i was in college she was up there
The whole cultivation process is letting go of human attachments
Well enlightened Julia! Congrats!
I am in tears!
Julia, je ontroerd me zo...de schoonheid van jouw🥰 levenslessen...Ik hou van jou!
Sandra Bullock could play her so well
♥️❤♥️
Everyone needs to know this wonderful woman - extraordinary
Her story just inspired a new musical on Broadway in New York City right now. It's inspired by her story, and it starts the actress and singer Idina Menzel!!
She is my heroine, the person i get inspired and motivated by the most.
wow.. sooo inspiring... let go of your attachments... i loved this
Thank Julia 💚🌳
She is one hell of a woman
Thank you, Julia!
i love her she inspired me after i read her story in the voice of peoples history
She is very brave at that young age! ❤️
Words are not enough to describe.....
Si los gobiernos del mundo, tuvieran una pizca de valor y amor por la naturaleza, cómo lo tiene ella......el mundo sería un vergel!!! If the governments of the world had a bit of courage and love for nature, as she does...the world would be a garden!!!
This is the real beauty of a human being
Can’t believe she actually did it and won. That’s how you do it. True motivation. These days you have losers on social media declaring a hunger strike and just giving up a day later
She is so beautiful on the outside and inside.
Reminds me of that other julia, actress julia ormand. Anyhow she has the will of iron yet with the flexibility of a reed that bends with the wind but props right back up afterwards. Thanks julia, you inspire me.
Its amazing how hard you will fight to save your own life even when you think you've given up on everything everyone including yourself until that one moment comes along and you say HELL NO! Im not ready yet ..
If someone knows where came from these footages (i mean documentary, film ?) i'll be very grateful ! Thank You !
She's brave as Captain America. A real superhuman.
Captain America is not real this Goddess is . Hence she is better
i am really impressive by her insistence of tree-sitting!!!~
Not many people in the world that I feel like I can identify with, but even just watching a video I feel like I totally understand this person.
She is a rare type of a person, if you will give option to the people of what she did. 99% won't leave their comfort zone to do that. But the worst part of it, was the company who tried to cut the old tree that survives harsh climate and been there older than our ancestors. May her tribe increase ❤❤

Dios gracias por hacer seres humanos asi como ella❤
i love her so much
Aprendió a bailar con Luna!!! Learned to dance with the moon!!!
Increible ,pedazo de MUJER eres Mariposa mis respetos para ti !!! ❤❤
Every deep crisis takes us to the point where we can see in ourselves what she saw--if we have her guts. Nine bows to Julia Butterfly Hill.
is this video part of a larger documentary? where can it be found?
I'm here because of Gina - from Global Vegan Crowd Funder - in her share of this inspiring action 💚
Like most of the old hippies I once knew she moved on...Hers due to health reasons....Julia did good but you can only do so much before you pass the torch to other people..
what a beautiful fight
Wow ❤
She got Enlightened🌲
How saints think or what makes them different - sometimes while watching I'd get an intimation of what that might be.
YOU ARE ROYALTY! 👑
Julia e' un eroe dei tempi nostri ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So wise at that age ❤
I just love her💯🥰❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
2:27 let go of the attachment that you have.
wht a beautiful soul
gracias💜
beautiful
I’m still thinking how she made it 🤔 , how she provides food for her, shower, clothes, restroom all these things going on my mind
There must be a movie out of this experience
Something tells me she was really upset when Jerry died.
That was great!
he kaitiaki o papatuanuki, a guardian of mother-earth
I love her energy , I follow her on social networks,m
Young people did so much more stuff even 20 years ago
Beautiful....
Awesome
Джулия Хилл человек с красивой Душой ❤❤❤
Amazing
she said some crouching tiger hidden
dragon shit! let go and flow. but this is real ! the movie scene is what i picture. wow what an amazing human! what powerful connection to
higher purpose! thank you!
Nuts! To think you have to put up with that!!!
amazing
The car accident definitely affected her. It’s nice she found a passion though but I think if she never had that accident she would not have done this
Wow🙌🏽
The movie man of steel was about her.
