17 BIGGEST Trees in the World

17 BIGGEST Trees in the World
This Atlas Cedar in the Foret de Cedar in Northern Morocco is one of the tallest Trees in Africa. The tree has an estimated girth of 3.5 feet and is estimated to be more than 131 feet tall! This tree was planted around 1200-1400 A.D. which makes it at around 7 centuries old.
The Queets River Spruce in Washington state was the largest Spruce Tree in the world. The Queets Spruce has a circumference of 60 feet and is 191 feet tall. It attracted nature enthusiasts and tourists from around the country, but unfortunately fell when a harsh winter storm hit the area in 2007.
This tree is the largest known western redcedar in the entire world. It has a volume of over 18,000 cubic feet and a height of 180 feet when it was last measured. This tree makes its home about 21 miles from the pacific ocean near Quinalt Lake and took the title for tallest tree in the area after the Queets Lake Spruce was felled in a storm.
These odd trees that decorate the plains of Africa are known for their many strange characteristics. The tops of their branches make them look like their roots sprout into the air instead of into the ground, they’re known to be fire resistant and it can last through even the most severe droughts. The Baobabs aren’t just incredibly fascinating alien-like plantlife, they’re also incredibly large, regularly reaching towering 100 foot heights and massive 30 foot diameters.
Near a tiny village hidden in the mountains of central Colombia, the Cocora Valley acts as the residence for the world’s tallest palm trees which also have been recognized as Colombia’s national tree. The Palms in this valley grow more than 200 feet tall, which is strange even to many experts as there is no evolutionary benefit for a tree in an open field to grow so high.
The Tane Mahuta is a giant kauri tree (Agathis australis) in the Waipoua Forest of New Zealand. Tane Mahuta is 58 feet high but has a total volume of 18,250 cubic feet, making it the 4th largest trees when measured by volume in the world. Experts estimate this tree to be between 1,250 and 2,500 years old, so not only is it one of the largest trees, it is also one of the oldest. Tane Mahuta translates to “Lord of the Forest” when translated from Maori, which is more than an appropriate name considering the Tane Mahuta’s size and age.

For several years, I lived within walking distance from a Redwood tree that's 18 feet in diameter, and was originally over 350 feet tall. The 1906 SF earthquake didn't damage it, but a windstorm shortly afterward took out the top 60 feet. Then the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake took out another chunk, a scaffold branch that is over 7 feet in diameter. It fell onto a small portion of a nearby home, causing minor damage to the roof. The homeowner told me that the crashing sound was even louder & more jolting than the earthquake! The main reason for Redwood trees' longevity is that they're virtually fireproof. After the last huge fire in the Santa Cruz Mountains, most of the Redwoods there were still standing, and the branches that were burned-off got replaced by sprouts of new branches; their magic is unstoppable!

[@stevewilliams3850]

There is this big live oak tree in Graceville, Florida. Back around 1970 or 1971, the former owner of the property and I wanted to try to measure how big around the tree was then. So we spread our arms out measured it that way. It was five arm spans around. My arm span is around five feet, and hers was about the same, or slightly longer since she was a little taller than me. So the tree was at least twenty-five feet around in the early 1970's. That's a pretty big tree.

also this one image is enough to point out it's approximate location on a map. Judging from google maps, this is most likely Klamath river. It has a stretch of around 30 km (~18.5 miles) (straight line) that has the combination of river and river-bank one can see in the picture. Add to that, that without a closer inspection, you can narrow it down to ~5 places that are likely and it's not really gonna be an issue to find it. If you were motivated, you could hike that distance in 1-2 days and find it halfway through probably. Edit: nvm redwood creek seems even more likely. It has an even shorter stretch of river that seems likely. I could fly to the usa for one day and i bet i could find it in that time, just with google maps and that picture.

[@pwengineering9070]

Ben Piercy In California, where I live, there were thousands of trees over 200m (660ft) the biggest was said to have been cut down in the early 1830's and was nearly 217m(710ft)when the tree was cut down, which was a year long task, it pulled down over 50 trees ranging from 100m to 150m. They chopped them down for paper goods, railroad ties, telegraph poles and furniture, furniture because of its beautiful textures and grain. This wood was not used for building materials, you would of thought they would had left the big ones alone since they took months/ years to cut down.

When a documentary about trees states, in the first few words, that a tree belongs to a "genius", I kind-of switch off. Anybody who doesn't know the difference between genius and genus isn't qualified to talk about biology. I was tempted to abandon the diatribe there - but the trees looked interesting, so I persevered. He's the kind of guy who would say "boabab" instead of "baobab" - oh, hang on - he just did! And that Banyan tree - I'm not sure about this, but if you know a banyan when you see one, does this look like one to you? He says "This giant sequoia is called the biggest living thing on Earth. While that title is debatable, it is undebatably the largest tree in the world" Did I miss something there? Is there a bigger living thing than the biggest tree? "This redwood is 377.13 ft tall". Why not just 377ft? Is it valid to measure the height of a huge tree to the nearest tenth of an inch? "It would tower above the Big Ben clock tower". Big Ben is thought of affectionately by Londoners, but it's a bit fatuous to use it as an international criterion of height. At the end of the clip, he says how "Experts say there were probably several trees even taller than" ... the tallest known tree, but they have been felled by loggers. How sad. In a visitor centre on Vancouver Island, they have a cross-section of a huge tree, showing the rings. The smallest ring is dated with the year when it started to grow (I can't remember, but it was a LONG time ago). Other rings are dated with events in history, like the Napoleonic wars, etc, to show the period it had lived through. The third last ring before the bark is labeled "Arrival of the white man". The third from last ring.

The narrator may not know it but there are mushrooms in Washington and Michigan (among other places?) that are quite large. Of course I am speaking of the underground portion and not the fruits that pop up. I have heard that these may be larger in volume that the giant trees. I do agree though that this guy hammered many words, suggesting he did not know what he was saying at times.

[@Presenterbloke]

[@mikebetts2046]

Per Gustafsson The video may be gibberish but not because it references Imperial units. Anyone that tries to pretend that they are smarter than the rest of us yet cannot perform simple unit conversions in their head is not really very smart. Or they may be mentally lazy. Now I am not talking about conversions accurate enough for an engineering project. Just enough to get an idea of how tall or large something is. Three feet per yard; which is around 1 meter. So a tree that is 300 feet tall is around 100 meters tall. As for the volumetric conversion; Twenty seven cubic feet is approximately 1 cubic meter. But then most people do not have a good mental grasp of volumes anyway when the numerical value is large.

This video is littered with errors. First off what is your definition of "Biggest" ? My definition is a measurement of volume, not height (tallest). If you want a list of the tallest conifer species in the world, here it is in order: 1.Redwood, 2.Douglas Fir, 3.Sitka Spruce. Second, the General Sherman tree is literally the biggest tree in the world, not debatable, period. Third, the picture for number 2, Helios (a redwood), is actually a giant sequoia pictured. Fourth, that is not Hyperion, the location of which is not publicly disclosed by the researchers who found and study the tree.

It is 379 feet but NOT sticking out among 2nd growth redwoods as seen in the final frame here. The location is hidden from people because of concerns of people damaging it.

Its not Biggest but tallest trees. The Hyperion is not the biggest but the tallest tree yet known. Huge difference

measured at 115.92 m (380.3 ft), which ranks it as the world's tallest known living tree. its Bigger than any you have in your yard - your statement has no Logic - bigger in girth, bigger span, Bigger in height, bigger age, different useage , with the same meaning of Bigger, larger, etc when comparing one item or thing to another -

You should add Angel Oak in Johns Island, SC to the list. Angel Oak is estimated to be 500 years old. It stands 66.5 ft tall, measures 28 ft in circumference, and produces shade that covers 17,200 square feet.
