I don't understand why, when you are describing one of your featured trees, you are showing pictures of other species, When describing a gum tree in Tasmania you show pictures of Redwoods of California. I could not keep up with your descriptions, as I was confused to what I was hearing/ seeing.
I hate this! The video shows actual pictures of the described trees but then starts showing other too, and then just showing Sequoias and not the actual trees, -as if they are all interchangeable or they think we are stupid! This is part of a sickening online trend I've been noticing...
As a Californian, I’m lucky to live where the oldest, tallest, and largest tree’s in the world exist. The Bristlecone Pine is the oldest, nearly 5000 years old. The Coast Redwood is the tallest, and the Sierra Redwood, General Sherman tree, is the largest. So this video got that wrong. Standing near the General Sherman is an awe inspiring experience.
@@lizzardwizard2000 The coastal redwoods can be dangerous during periods of high wind. The ranger told us that people are injured or killed every year by a falling top branch which can be the size of an average tree growing in your backyard. Muir Woods is spectacular.
@ Yes- both sequoias do this, as well as many other trees. A person was killed in Yosemite valley on the open air bus this way. Not sure if it was windy. Also being in a Coast Redwood forest in a large earthquake is very dangerous. I visited the Santa Cruz mountains after the 1989 earthquake. There were many branches littering the forest floor. Some trees had actually snapped in half, probably due to a harmonic wave in the trees movement.
It's called clonal because the trees grow up from branches and roots so that every plant is the original organism or is a clone of the original. The oldest example on Earth is a Huon Pine at Lake Johnstone in Tasmania. It covers 15 square kilometers.
if you want to see some trees that would make all of these look like blades of grass go to flat out truth 2 and the video biblical trees and there remains.
@@edgarsnake2857 Camped in Sequoia once. We woke up one morning to a low hanging mist in the forest which was truly ethereal and made one feel like a tiny living being.
I was in Brisbane, Australia recently and saw many fine examples of the Fig(Banyan) tree featured as #16 in the video A truly fascinating tree to see in real life👍🏼👍🏼🙂
Mother Earth. I thought it was brother jukebox sister wine mother freedom and Father Time 😂 . My suggestion to you is live in the wild and don’t eat plants animals or step on anything and you can be the leader on saving the earth
If we all planted ONE 1 tree for ourselves AND ONE 1. for any child we have. This Earth would start reversing Climate change...🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻...the more green energy, oxygen, shade, rains, animal homes and food for many creatures.... PLEASE PLANT A TREE... .
Funny how so many people still believe in reversing climate change while so called philanthropists say they are reversing it while making it worse. Spraying poison in the air to blot out sun and poison our soil. Getting rid of carbon that is a building block of life. They are carrying out eugenics on an unsuspecting population that believe everything they are told by the people that deceive them. At the height of summer examine where the sun is in the morning, day and sunset. Look due East in the morning and due West at sunset and you will see that the sun will be as far north as at least southern Canada. Now compare that with what we learned in elementary school about where the equator is and it's correlation with the sun. You should come to the realization that it is way off of its normal path. It's not climate change in the way they want you to think. Looks like Pole shift.
If the solution was so simple, we would not have the problems we do. One of the reasons Climate Change is such a problem is that there is no simple, single solution. Our impact on it come from multiple parts of our civilisation. We need to adjust many of our current behaviours well beyond such feel good measures to minimise our future impact before we can even consider how we can deal with our contribution since the Industrial Revolution. While we continue to magnify the climate's warming, we reduce our abilty to deal with the consequences in a timely manner.
What most people do not realize is the planet has been going through climate change in its entire history. The Ice age is ending, next is the humid world wide warm climate tue Dinosaurs lived in. There is no stopping mother earth from living her cycles. Humans will adapt with mother earth like we always have.
Hear you marcie, you have new people that move into houses and the first thing they want to do and they do cut your trees that have been there for 58 years and never harmed anything what damage to anything they cut them illegally bend the tree becomes endangerment and dies our backyard was a sanctuary unfortunately it was an accentuate from the human beings
There are more trees in the northern hemisphere than there was 100 years ago. This is because we use petrochemicals to heat and cook instead of burning wood. CO2 is not a pollutant and is needed for trees to grow. Industrial green houses release compressed CO2 to their plants so to increase yield. CO2 causes plants to need less water and fertilizer and still increases yield.
Thank you so much for this incredibly fascinating journey through the world’s exceptional trees! I grew up in redwood country, and thoroughly enjoyed learning about the other incredible trees in our incredible world! ❤❤❤
Ancient trees have always fascinated me for some reason. They've been here longer than we have and are still going strong. These trees hold a mystical air about them. ❤
I'm in the land of big trees near the Olympic rain forest between Elma and Shelton Washington where the big trees that weren't protected have all but vanished. It's a great place for trees to grow with plenty of rain too. Historic Camp Grisdale north of Hoquiam where my Dad and his Dad worked/logged in the late 1940's through the 1960's typically gets over 140 inches of precip a year. Anyway that was an interesting and well done video on one of my favorite subjects.
There is a coast Redwood in Big Basin Redwoods State Park near Santa Cruz that stands 329' tall a little ways off the trail (visitor's required to stay on trail in the area with tge largest trees). I have seen it and it is incredible! It survived the devastating fire there a few years ago. Most of the Redwoods survived while the majority of the others did not. But even many of the Douglas firs, while appearing dead at first are growing back from the trunks and larger branches. The forest is resilient! Big Basin while not having the very largest indevidual trees, probably has the most impressive easily accesable coast Redwoods anywhere. Big Basin is still only partially open with limmited parking as construction and recovery work continues but the grove with the largest trees is now accessible. The park also has many trees that are over 15' across at the base as well as holding one of the largest old growth Coast Redwood forests (Humboldt Redwoods State Park has the largest) in terms of land area.
Yes, I visited Big basin several years ago and I don't know if it is still there but there was a large round slice cut from one of the giant redwood trees the slice was standing on end and you could see the rings, They had aluminum small tags on certain rings, I remember one ring was tagged with " Columbus Discovered America" and one ring was marked with a tag that said " The time of Jesus", so that tree was more than 2000 years old I do have a picture of my brother and I standing inside one of the huge trees at Big Basin.
@@Gretsch6113 yes it is still there. Most of he giant Redwoods in Big Basin survived the fire as did even many of the Douglas firs, though a lot of the latter did sucomb. Some of the big Redwoods had their tops burnt off though and others are now basically blackened polls with dead branches but new growth sprouting from their trunk. There are plenty of younger Redwoods that survived as well though many did not make it. But some of the big Redwood trees still have a nice broad if diminished canopy and the very tallest trees are among the most intact. I remember that old slice from a long ago felled giant (from the lumber days of the early 20th century)! Most of the visitors facilities did not make it unfortunately and Big Basin is now only available for day use with limmited parking. Parts of the park are also still closed as rebuilding and ongoing restoration work continues, but much of it is now open and more is being gradually opened again over time.
@@thespeedofchillax yes the vast majority of the Redwoods survived, though many were pretty badely damaged but will heal in time. The forest is very different now though, not like before and will take quite a while to recover (with scars). The Redwoods are fire adapted, -the evidence from the tree's trunks show this sort of more destructive fire event has happened every few hundred years at least.
That is amazing. I have always wondered how loud it would be and how crazy it would be if one of these gigantic trees fell over. I can't even imagine how much they weigh.
The largest accepted measurement of a Douglas fir tree in Oregon (after being cut down) was 393 ft tall and 15.4 ft in diameter; larger than the current tallest redwood. This was in 1930. All the other big trees were cut down, and now the largest is barely 250 ft tall.
I love touching Aspen trees... I imagine positivity vibrations from my fingertips, to the Aspens trunk, going down and through the trunk to its roots, connected to other Aspen roots, other Aspen trees miles, or states away... Feels like being in multiple places at once~~
When i see these landscapes with trees like baobab, I can imagine a bustling metropolitan city which unfortunately never happened . Btw India too has some old baobab trees and a few introduced monkey pod trees in parks would mean no harm.
I have always loved trees and people are amazed that I'm amazed when waling through a forest but now that I'm older I do my best to replicate what I've seen in the form of Bonsai! Great video..
Really enjoyed this show. Such beautiful living things. There is a big tree in Lichfield Park in the Northern Territory. It's a Banyan tree at the Banyan Tree Caravan Park. It's quite enormous and fabulous. Interestingly, there is another one equally as large, if not larger about 5km away on private property that few people have ever seen. They are probably related.
I've been planting trees ever since I've had my own property to do as I please with. It started with fruit trees and I was just amazed at the quantity and quality of fruit that grew with very little care. Then while my neighbors cut down all their trees because of the amount of leaves that they were producing, I was planting more and didn't mind the raking in the fall. I had the shadiest and coolest yard in the hot summers while my neighbors stayed indoors to keep cool. The two Crimson King maples in the front yard give my house a look of elegance and the biggest one in the neighborhood is in my back yard and it towers over everything. It's a NORWAY spruce and worthy enough to don the grounds of the Rockerfellow plaza in NEW YORK city as the biggest and most awesome XMAS tree ever grown.
There is a tree in America that has been cut so that cars can drive through it. The Chandelier Tree in Leggett, California is a giant redwood tree that you can drive through. Diameter 16 ft at breast height Tunnel 6 ft wide by 6 ft 9 in high Age 2,400 years old Features Unusual limbs that resemble a chandelier, picnic area, gift shop, duck pond, and forest trails Also:: EUREKA, Calif. -- Not one but three giant redwoods offer motorists the opportunity to steer their wheels through a living tree. All are right off US Highway 101, known as the Redwood Highway, within an hour or so drive of the historic seaport of Eureka. These trees are incredible and extremely big.
I have a Tree story. Not mine but belongs to the Pioneers traveling on the Oregon Trail. Pretty much the trees are gone from the landscape following the Columbia River so not to many landmarks. One landmarks was a gigantic Pine Tree on land that is now I 84 and Baker City Oregon. So the Pioneers knew that when they sighted that Pine Tree they were closer to where they were going and out of that steep canyon. So one Pioneer decided to Winter there and needed wood. So instead of going up to the treeline to cut wood he cut down the gigantic Pine tree. Well the Pioneers traveling through were so upset about it they put up a plaque about what happened. And oh what happened you asked?! The people at the Settlement there strung him up and hanged him for cutting down that Pine Tree!! I'm sorry I don't recall the name of the Pine Tree, but you could probably Google it.
Your title is biggest tree (not tallest or widest) yet somehow you are missing the Pando aspen in Utah. It covers 106 acres and although it has many stalks from the same root system, it may be the largest single organism on earth.
How is that so many of these trees have only been discovered so recently? With such incredible size you would think they would have been documented long ago? Makes you wonder how many smaller yet remarkable things of nature are still undiscovered.
It's only with age do I question why making fun of "tree huggers" is ever a thing...they are amazing, and yeah i'm older and its only an older mind that can really appreicate trees, their size and their beauty and their presense on this planet!!!
In the Southern oast on South Africa, the Tsitsikammz forest is The Big Tree as 800yr old Yellowood. It stands 36+m tall with a trunk of 9m which is also a Tourist attraction. In the Tsirsikamma indigenous forest. Definitely worth a mention too. South Africa 🇿🇦
4:31 In the video the name of kauri tree is spelled correctly. In the contents it is misspelled cowry. The cowry is an Australian tree. In early writings about New Zealand, before the local, oral, Maori language was given a uniform spelling Maori words had a variety of different spellings. One early writer used the spelling cowrie for the kauri tree. Kauri trees are slow growing and so there are still some survivors from before the arrival of the Maori people, just a few hundred years before the first Europeans. Kauri trees grow naturally in the North Island and those in the South Island have been introduced by humans. There is a park a mile from my home with giant kauris, a park even nearer with a large grove of kauri. Tane Mahuta is a two hour drive away. Kauri trees, a straight, fine grained, softwood, were logged extensively, initially for shipbuilding, but with the advent of the steam mill in the 1880s kauri were used extensively for building. My own house, one hundred and twenty years old is exclusively kauri, although some alterations in the 1920s incorporated the native rimu and exotic (North American) cedar. My own alterations have used a variety of timbers, native and imported. The original foundation blocks which used a different, more water resistant, timber were replaced long ago. Although often stripped back to bare timber and polished to its natural golden colour, back in the day kauri was generally painted, stained, or scumbled to look like more interesting timbers. Floors, for example were stained black to look like the Australian hardwood jarrah. For 50 square metres of new flooring I have used jarrah to match. (Newly milled kauri is not commercially available.) Unlike the timber from the trunks, that from the bolas of the tree, the burl, is highly decorative and was used for panels in furniture. While generally plain kauri timber sometimes has a beautiful shimmer, also seen on macrocarpa, a Californian native ("Monterey Cypress") so ubiquitous here that one major dictionary long identified it as a native of New Zealand. Kauri trunks, thousands of years old are extracted from swamps and are a popular material for hobby and commercial woodworkers.
When I first saw the Close encounter of the third Kind and the Devils Tower, I got such a strong feeling that the tower is a few million years old tree, that then died and has been petrified for millions of years. Greetings from Sweden.
great video! really loved the visuals and information shared. however, i can’t help but wonder if the focus on size overshadows the importance of preserving these majestic trees. isn’t it about time we shift our attention to conservation rather than just marveling at their size?
are these all natural trees with no or least human intervention? in some places, some old trees are protected and they put metal frame inside it's tree trunk
I've camped T park of Sequia tres. They are huge one was cut down many years ago it was so big that the lumber jack worked on it all day. One night the tree fell the shook the near by town. Then there was a dance hall build on top of the stump thats how big it was. Sad that trees are being cut down tl build homes and ither building when there are man made materials that could replace the trees.
There is a lot of trees. Sad it is cut down for TP and newsprint. We got fingers and computer spreadsheets. They used to cut down the big ones by 2 man handsaws. Once started the other guy at the other end would not be seen for a week. Cedars were big in west coast Canada too. Logging trucks would carry 1, because cedar is very wet wood...so extremely heavy. Can you imagine before the trucks there were horse drawn wagons? The big ones now sit in a "heritage park" Smaller trees are used because easier to handle and dry out. Equipment changed so now a log goes on a large lathe & rotated to get a large sheet of plywood (instead of planks)(the old way though ship-lap planks are made); and so did 2x16, 2x12,2x10, 2x8,2x6,2x4,2x3, 2x2,2x1,8x8,8x6,6x6,4x4,veneer,mdf board(I call it chip-board, saw dust used to make particleboard sheets (basically sawdust & glue) & basically a tree is used up completely. Not even enough for toothpicks. That is just from the trunk of the tree. Branches are not worth bothering with so are returned to the soil to rot or burn &rot to become dirt again. . Tree planters go in after a couple of years to plant a new forest using seedling. . Man made materials is made either from dirt minerals or tree sap (chemistry) or you live in a hole in the ground where there once stood a tree. Bilbo Baggins You could try STRAW? . Man has found it EASIER TO HANDLE a 30" or so sized trunk than it is to handle something more massive. They do not need to go big when they have "Processing equipment and glues" to hold it together.

Beautiful and disturbing. Why is it so hard for fellow inhabitants of planet Earth to understand how that each tree felled and every acre cleared reduces our planet’s ability to sustain life of all forms, including humans? Satisfying the greed for fast monetary gain for companies and corporations by deforestation and land clearing is like paying workers to dig the graves for ALL life on Earth. PLEASE tell me there are some businesses and governments (even while exploiting the resources that took centuries to develop) that realize trees don’t fall from the skies, plant themselves and mature overnight. It’s difficult, sad and infuriating to watch fellow Homo sapiens create and work toward the extinction of all life on Earth!
My saying since 40 years! The destruction of allmost all rainforests, and any other forests and trees all over the world is absolutely devastating and apocalyptic... Mankind destroys all life ... To my opinion every tree felled is one too many! Mankind has forgotten and does not care about this Mother Earth anymore... since far too many decades... heartbraking! All this overkill has to stopp...

Aspens need water so are more likely found in Valleys of mountain ranges where the creeks flow.
I heard the Sequoias are one root system also.

@@williambrown6457 Trees have a soul.
Thanks!! Very informative and enjoyably amazing!!😊😊
if you want to see some trees that would make all of these look like blades of grass go to flat out truth 2 and the video biblical trees and there remains.
I love trees. I have albums of trees that I have been photographing for over 60 years. All so exceptionally huge,old, & unique in shape.CM
I would love to see your album!
If you ever post it online, let us know😇
You are a bot, go away.
I like this from nature. The trees create coolness and amazing beauty.
They convert CO2 to O2. a deail they leave out of climate change..
Awesome video ❤thank you for posting 😀
Great video. I've been to see General Grant a couple of times. It was magnificent.
@@edgarsnake2857 Camped in Sequoia once. We woke up one morning to a low hanging mist in the forest which was truly ethereal and made one feel like a tiny living being.
Mind-blowing! It’s incredible to think of a tree that massive. Nature never ceases to amaze-thanks for sharing this!
Redwoods are pretty big too... Sequoias...
It’s our creator that’s amazing.
Excellent presentation.
Thank you.
I was in Brisbane, Australia recently and saw many fine examples of the Fig(Banyan) tree featured as #16 in the video A truly fascinating tree to see in real life👍🏼👍🏼🙂
This is so nice I love trees❤ thank you for posting
Very good I loved watching this video. I just wish the advertising was more user-friendly
Total right, save all tree. They are all super important for our planet. Save Mother Earth.❤❤❤
Mother Earth. I thought it was brother jukebox sister wine mother freedom and Father Time 😂 . My suggestion to you is live in the wild and don’t eat plants animals or step on anything and you can be the leader on saving the earth
Thoughtful answer. Thank you.
The earth isn't our mother. God is our father.

"The yellow meranti’s height and the way it supports so many species is incredible. Sad to think that such majestic trees are at risk."
Sad indeed.
Fantastic! I'm getting confused, tho. Some trees are listed with feet, some with meters. I can't compare them.
If we all planted ONE 1 tree for ourselves AND ONE 1. for any child we have. This Earth would start reversing Climate change...🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻...the more green energy, oxygen, shade, rains, animal homes and food for many creatures.... PLEASE PLANT A TREE... .
Funny how so many people still believe in reversing climate change while so called philanthropists say they are reversing it while making it worse. Spraying poison in the air to blot out sun and poison our soil. Getting rid of carbon that is a building block of life. They are carrying out eugenics on an unsuspecting population that believe everything they are told by the people that deceive them. At the height of summer examine where the sun is in the morning, day and sunset. Look due East in the morning and due West at sunset and you will see that the sun will be as far north as at least southern Canada. Now compare that with what we learned in elementary school about where the equator is and it's correlation with the sun. You should come to the realization that it is way off of its normal path. It's not climate change in the way they want you to think. Looks like Pole shift.
If the solution was so simple, we would not have the problems we do.
One of the reasons Climate Change is such a problem is that there is no simple, single solution. Our impact on it come from multiple parts of our civilisation.
We need to adjust many of our current behaviours well beyond such feel good measures to minimise our future impact before we can even consider how we can deal with our contribution since the Industrial Revolution.
While we continue to magnify the climate's warming, we reduce our abilty to deal with the consequences in a timely manner.
What most people do not realize is the planet has been going through climate change in its entire history. The Ice age is ending, next is the humid world wide warm climate tue Dinosaurs lived in. There is no stopping mother earth from living her cycles. Humans will adapt with mother earth like we always have.
Hear you marcie, you have new people that move into houses and the first thing they want to do and they do cut your trees that have been there for 58 years and never harmed anything what damage to anything they cut them illegally bend the tree becomes endangerment and dies our backyard was a sanctuary unfortunately it was an accentuate from the human beings
There are more trees in the northern hemisphere than there was 100 years ago. This is because we use petrochemicals to heat and cook instead of burning wood. CO2 is not a pollutant and is needed for trees to grow. Industrial green houses release compressed CO2 to their plants so to increase yield. CO2 causes plants to need less water and fertilizer and still increases yield.
Wow, incredible, very impressive! I need to do some travelling!
BTW, would be better if you would have kept the use of feet and meters consistent.
Thank you so much for this incredibly fascinating journey through the world’s exceptional trees! I grew up in redwood country, and thoroughly enjoyed learning about the other incredible trees in our incredible world! ❤❤❤
Ancient trees have always fascinated me for some reason. They've been here longer than we have and are still going strong.
These trees hold a mystical air about them. ❤
Awesome love the trees
The oldest tree is an olive tree in Jerusalem. I do love seeing all these different trees. ❤
Have you seen the 4,853 year old Bristlecone Pine in California?
In the Garden of Gethsemane?
@@Roylamxthat pine is the oldest tree!!!
@@Roylamxolder than solomon even survived noah's flood Lol.😅
I'm in the land of big trees near the Olympic rain forest between Elma and Shelton Washington where the big trees that weren't protected have all but vanished. It's a great place for trees to grow with plenty of rain too. Historic Camp Grisdale north of Hoquiam where my Dad and his Dad worked/logged in the late 1940's through the 1960's typically gets over 140 inches of precip a year. Anyway that was an interesting and well done video on one of my favorite subjects.
I wonder how many massive trees of record sizes were cut down for lumber during the heyday of lumberjacks.
Many many Redwoods
I wonder how many human lives were benefited from cutting them down.
Too many.
@@Johnny2FeathersAnd I also wonder how many were negatively impacted from it as well, goes both ways I believe
There is a coast Redwood in Big Basin Redwoods State Park near Santa Cruz that stands 329' tall a little ways off the trail (visitor's required to stay on trail in the area with tge largest trees). I have seen it and it is incredible! It survived the devastating fire there a few years ago. Most of the Redwoods survived while the majority of the others did not. But even many of the Douglas firs, while appearing dead at first are growing back from the trunks and larger branches. The forest is resilient! Big Basin while not having the very largest indevidual trees, probably has the most impressive easily accesable coast Redwoods anywhere. Big Basin is still only partially open with limmited parking as construction and recovery work continues but the grove with the largest trees is now accessible. The park also has many trees that are over 15' across at the base as well as holding one of the largest old growth Coast Redwood forests (Humboldt Redwoods State Park has the largest) in terms of land area.
Yes, I visited Big basin several years ago and I don't know if it is still there but there was a large round slice cut from one of the giant redwood trees the slice was standing on end and you could see the rings, They had aluminum small tags on certain rings, I remember one ring was tagged with " Columbus Discovered America" and one ring was marked with a tag that said " The time of Jesus", so that tree was more than 2000 years old
I do have a picture of my brother and I standing inside one of the huge trees at Big Basin.
@@Gretsch6113 yes it is still there. Most of he giant Redwoods in Big Basin survived the fire as did even many of the Douglas firs, though a lot of the latter did sucomb. Some of the big Redwoods had their tops burnt off though and others are now basically blackened polls with dead branches but new growth sprouting from their trunk. There are plenty of younger Redwoods that survived as well though many did not make it. But some of the big Redwood trees still have a nice broad if diminished canopy and the very tallest trees are among the most intact. I remember that old slice from a long ago felled giant (from the lumber days of the early 20th century)! Most of the visitors facilities did not make it unfortunately and Big Basin is now only available for day use with limmited parking. Parts of the park are also still closed as rebuilding and ongoing restoration work continues, but much of it is now open and more is being gradually opened again over time.
so the headwall tree survived the fire, rad to hear. havent been up to see it since the fire.
@@thespeedofchillax yes the vast majority of the Redwoods survived, though many were pretty badely damaged but will heal in time. The forest is very different now though, not like before and will take quite a while to recover (with scars). The Redwoods are fire adapted, -the evidence from the tree's trunks show this sort of more destructive fire event has happened every few hundred years at least.
That is amazing. I have always wondered how loud it would be and how crazy it would be if one of these gigantic trees fell over. I can't even imagine how much they weigh.
Oregon , wife’s dad made fire roads in the mountains , said the biggest stump he ever found was 14 paces across, he was a big guy too
The largest accepted measurement of a Douglas fir tree in Oregon (after being cut down) was 393 ft tall and 15.4 ft in diameter; larger than the current tallest redwood. This was in 1930. All the other big trees were cut down, and now the largest is barely 250 ft tall.
@ that’s what he told me , must have meant heel to toe , not big paces
Terrific video! I have seen the General Sherman tree in CA and it was quite an impressive sight! 🌲🌲
I love touching Aspen trees... I imagine positivity vibrations from my fingertips, to the Aspens trunk, going down and through the trunk to its roots, connected to other Aspen roots, other Aspen trees miles, or states away... Feels like being in multiple places at once~~
Truly awesome - one of the best videos on YT!
When i see these landscapes with trees like baobab, I can imagine a bustling metropolitan city which unfortunately never happened .
Btw India too has some old baobab trees and a few introduced monkey pod trees in parks would mean no harm.
Great list! Does anyone else find it so ironic that so many of these giant trees were only discovered recently?
As the means to explore more remote areas becomes more accessible.
I have always loved trees and people are amazed that I'm amazed when waling through a forest but now that I'm older I do my best to replicate what I've seen in the form of Bonsai! Great video..
Fantastic Video !
This was really really good !
Really enjoyed this show. Such beautiful living things. There is a big tree in Lichfield Park in the Northern Territory. It's a Banyan tree at the Banyan Tree Caravan Park. It's quite enormous and fabulous. Interestingly, there is another one equally as large, if not larger about 5km away on private property that few people have ever seen. They are probably related.
Some trees are measured in feet while others in metres, however, they're all superb specimens of nature, fabulous and so beneficial
INTERESTING ❤❤❤
THANK YOU! Lots to learn from your Channel , those trees are the Earth antennas for many ,many years!!
Yeah and the climate change hoax he mentioned
Just imagine, they were all once a seed in the beginning and now look what happen.That's just pretty amazing!
Now if only these majestic trees can avoid the plundering of man.
I've been planting trees ever since I've had my own property to do as I please with. It started with fruit trees and I was just amazed at the quantity and quality of fruit that grew with very little care. Then while my neighbors cut down all their trees because of the amount of leaves that they were producing, I was planting more and didn't mind the raking in the fall. I had the shadiest and coolest yard in the hot summers while my neighbors stayed indoors to keep cool. The two Crimson King maples in the front yard give my house a look of elegance and the biggest one in the neighborhood is in my back yard and it towers over everything. It's a NORWAY spruce and worthy enough to don the grounds of the Rockerfellow plaza in NEW YORK city as the biggest and most awesome XMAS tree ever grown.
I like your news, keep it up young man from Texas grandma
A very interesting video on trees 🌳 thanks for showing us 😊. Greetings from England 🏴 Simon and Beth sending you our support 🔔 ❤👋❤️
My dog watched this video in awe! 🌲🌳🎄♥🐕🦺
The best video about trees I've seen.😮
There is a tree in America that has been cut so that cars can drive through it. The Chandelier Tree in Leggett, California is a giant redwood tree that you can drive through.
Diameter
16 ft at breast height
Tunnel
6 ft wide by 6 ft 9 in high
Age
2,400 years old
Features
Unusual limbs that resemble a chandelier, picnic area, gift shop, duck pond, and forest trails
Also::
EUREKA, Calif. --
Not one but three giant redwoods offer motorists the opportunity to steer their wheels through a living tree. All are right off US Highway 101, known as the Redwood Highway, within an hour or so drive of the historic seaport of Eureka.
These trees are incredible and extremely big.
Also in Sequoia National Park
@@williammusgraves2852 I think that IS in the Sequ0ia Park. "The General"
@@williammusgraves2852 Yes,I know! :}
THE TREE THEY CUT OPEN SO YOU COULD DRIVE THROUGH IT FELL. DAMN, SORRY !!!
@@robert-zj7ef Awe nooooo!!
Very interesting and informative.
I hope there are many many more largest, tallest and oldest trees in the world. Those that I saw here, were impressive.
A 229-year-old tree lives in my settlement, 100 meters from here. It was planted in 1795. It is Big.
Where's ths
Thank you for the video!
Thank You.
Trees are amazing! Wow.
All trees store carbon.
So?
I have a Tree story. Not mine but belongs to the Pioneers traveling on the Oregon Trail. Pretty much the trees are gone from the landscape following the Columbia River so not to many landmarks. One landmarks was a gigantic Pine Tree on land that is now I 84 and Baker City Oregon. So the Pioneers knew that when they sighted that Pine Tree they were closer to where they were going and out of that steep canyon. So one Pioneer decided to Winter there and needed wood. So instead of going up to the treeline to cut wood he cut down the gigantic Pine tree. Well the Pioneers traveling through were so upset about it they put up a plaque about what happened. And oh what happened you asked?! The people at the Settlement there strung him up and hanged him for cutting down that Pine Tree!! I'm sorry I don't recall the name of the Pine Tree, but you could probably Google it.
Interesting and great video 👊 you learn something new everyday guy's ! 👊🏴
Im into this kinda stuff. ❤❤
Plant a tree !!!
Trees are such inspiring structures
Very interesting thanks for sharing
very helpful, thank you
Tasmania is a beautiful and ancient landscape with trees far beyond the rest of the world. Most of the greatest trees in the world are there.
Yes there is another video on RUclips which says as much.
I agree with you. 🇦🇺
Beautiful trees 😊
Your title is biggest tree (not tallest or widest) yet somehow you are missing the Pando aspen in Utah. It covers 106 acres and although it has many stalks from the same root system, it may be the largest single organism on earth.
Lucky enough to have lived in both areas of #1 and #2 trees. California national parks are beautiful.
So bring it water. If you have to sink a well and pipe it through the forest to the tree.
Just amazing, this video with those trees.
How is that so many of these trees have only been discovered so recently? With such incredible size you would think they would have been documented long ago? Makes you wonder how many smaller yet remarkable things of nature are still undiscovered.
This guy really practiced saying ‘Thimmamma Marrimanu’. He nailed it everytime!
It's only with age do I question why making fun of "tree huggers" is ever a thing...they are amazing, and yeah i'm older and its only an older mind that can really appreicate trees, their size and their beauty and their presense on this planet!!!
This is one of the best examples to show politicians that the environment is worth saving. 😎
OPPS THERE IT IS GOD OF THE FORREST THIS IS EXACTLY WHY ITS AN INSULT TO OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN TO CALL HIM GOD
In the Southern oast on South Africa, the Tsitsikammz forest is The Big Tree as 800yr old Yellowood. It stands 36+m tall with a trunk of 9m which is also a Tourist attraction. In the Tsirsikamma indigenous forest. Definitely worth a mention too. South Africa 🇿🇦

In the video the name of kauri tree is spelled correctly. In the contents it is misspelled cowry.
The cowry is an Australian tree.
In early writings about New Zealand, before the local, oral, Maori language was given a uniform spelling Maori words had a variety of different spellings. One early writer used the spelling cowrie for the kauri tree.
Kauri trees are slow growing and so there are still some survivors from before the arrival of the Maori people, just a few hundred years before the first Europeans.
Kauri trees grow naturally in the North Island and those in the South Island have been introduced by humans.
There is a park a mile from my home with giant kauris, a park even nearer with a large grove of kauri. Tane Mahuta is a two hour drive away.
Kauri trees, a straight, fine grained, softwood, were logged extensively, initially for shipbuilding, but with the advent of the steam mill in the 1880s kauri were used extensively for building. My own house, one hundred and twenty years old is exclusively kauri, although some alterations in the 1920s incorporated the native rimu and exotic (North American) cedar. My own alterations have used a variety of timbers, native and imported. The original foundation blocks which used a different, more water resistant, timber were replaced long ago.
Although often stripped back to bare timber and polished to its natural golden colour, back in the day kauri was generally painted, stained, or scumbled to look like more interesting timbers. Floors, for example were stained black to look like the Australian hardwood jarrah. For 50 square metres of new flooring I have used jarrah to match. (Newly milled kauri is not commercially available.)
Unlike the timber from the trunks, that from the bolas of the tree, the burl, is highly decorative and was used for panels in furniture. While generally plain kauri timber sometimes has a beautiful shimmer, also seen on macrocarpa, a Californian native ("Monterey Cypress") so ubiquitous here that one major dictionary long identified it as a native of New Zealand.
Kauri trunks, thousands of years old are extracted from swamps and are a popular material for hobby and commercial woodworkers.
268 feets is like a 26 storys building ! not 16..
Imagine a world without trees , there would be no world , 🌳🌴🌲
You should include the Banyan tree of india. They spread so much..they are unique..their ariel roots spread so much. Huge spread.
Thank you
When I first saw the Close encounter of the third Kind and the Devils Tower, I got such a strong feeling that the tower is a few million years old tree, that then died and has been petrified for millions of years. Greetings from Sweden.
Profit. The bane of nature!!!
There is a rubber tree in Southern CA that wasn’t mentioned. It’s incredible! It is HUMONGOUS! Worth mentioning & visiting!
Great video, thank you Awsome
268’ would be about 25 floors, about 10’ per floor
Very nice video thank you))))
All trees are for me are mother nature's sentinels they deserve our respect and admiration
They are plants. That's it. They are not sentient.
Very impressive. Thank you for sharing. Please, however, keep your measurements consistent. I prefer metric.
Jeepers , and I prefer Feet and inches, I must be considerably older than you 😂
great video! really loved the visuals and information shared. however, i can’t help but wonder if the focus on size overshadows the importance of preserving these majestic trees. isn’t it about time we shift our attention to conservation rather than just marveling at their size?
These trees are dwarves compared to the trees in Avatar
are these all natural trees with no or least human intervention? in some places, some old trees are protected and they put metal frame inside it's tree trunk
I've camped T park of Sequia tres. They are huge one was cut down many years ago it was so big that the lumber jack worked on it all day. One night the tree fell the shook the near by town. Then there was a dance hall build on top of the stump thats how big it was. Sad that trees are being cut down tl build homes and ither building when there are man made materials that could replace the trees.
There is a lot of trees. Sad it is cut down for TP and newsprint. We got fingers and computer spreadsheets. They used to cut down the big ones by 2 man handsaws. Once started the other guy at the other end would not be seen for a week. Cedars were big in west coast Canada too. Logging trucks would carry 1, because cedar is very wet wood...so extremely heavy. Can you imagine before the trucks there were horse drawn wagons? The big ones now sit in a "heritage park" Smaller trees are used because easier to handle and dry out. Equipment changed so now a log goes on a large lathe & rotated to get a large sheet of plywood (instead of planks)(the old way though ship-lap planks are made); and so did 2x16, 2x12,2x10, 2x8,2x6,2x4,2x3, 2x2,2x1,8x8,8x6,6x6,4x4,veneer,mdf board(I call it chip-board, saw dust used to make particleboard sheets (basically sawdust & glue) & basically a tree is used up completely. Not even enough for toothpicks. That is just from the trunk of the tree. Branches are not worth bothering with so are returned to the soil to rot or burn &rot to become dirt again.
. Tree planters go in after a couple of years to plant a new forest using seedling.
. Man made materials is made either from dirt minerals or tree sap (chemistry) or you live in a hole in the ground where there once stood a tree. Bilbo Baggins You could try STRAW?
. Man has found it EASIER TO HANDLE a 30" or so sized trunk than it is to handle something more massive. They do not need to go big when they have "Processing equipment and glues" to hold it together.
General Sherman 😂 not Grant
Not sure how you could make this list and not include the Angel Oak on John’s Island.
General Sherman! 👍💯💜

THESE AREN'T TREES
THESE ARE MERELY BRUSHES
GOD'S ANGELS FELL DOWN ALL THE TREES IN THE WORLD, TREES THAT PUT FORTH ALL THE FRUITS OF THE WORLD TO FEED THEM GIANTS SUCH AS ADAM AND EVE AND THEM TITANS
ONCE ALL THEM GIANT FRUIT BEARING TREES WERE FELL ... GIANTS AND TITANS STARTED FEEDING ON THEMSELVES AND EACH OTHER
The oldest tree on earth is around 4400 years old. Interesting. That's around the time of the flood of Noah
Beautiful and disturbing. Why is it so hard for fellow inhabitants of planet Earth to understand how that each tree felled and every acre cleared reduces our planet’s ability to sustain life of all forms, including humans? Satisfying the greed for fast monetary gain for companies and corporations by deforestation and land clearing is like paying workers to dig the graves for ALL life on Earth. PLEASE tell me there are some businesses and governments (even while exploiting the resources that took centuries to develop) that realize trees don’t fall from the skies, plant themselves and mature overnight. It’s difficult, sad and infuriating to watch fellow Homo sapiens create and work toward the extinction of all life on Earth!
My saying since 40 years! The destruction of allmost all rainforests, and any other forests and trees all over the world is absolutely devastating and apocalyptic... Mankind destroys all life ... To my opinion every tree felled is one too many! Mankind has forgotten and does not care about this Mother Earth anymore... since far too many decades... heartbraking! All this overkill has to stopp...
You do realize it's a renewable resource, right?
Or do you prefer we make everything from plastic instead of wood?
