- Giant sequoia trees are the largest, heaviest trees in nature. These gigantic trees are true wonders of nature, able to live for more than 3,000 years and growing from 4,600 to 7,050 feet above sea level. Their bark is so thick and durable that it provides protection against both fire and threats such as fungi and wood-boring insects. These trees, native to North America, are divided into two groups: scale-leaved and coniferous, and their cones mature in 1 year. Even the world's largest tree, General Sherman, is a giant sequoia.

I’m sure if some of these trees could talk they could tell some interesting stories about people from way back!!😮😮
My favorite tree Amazing..
Take a shot everytime you hear "Giant Sequoia"
Nature can be wonderful if we treated fair.Sequoia trees I believe are the wisest species on this planet, they live for thousands of years in harmony-with nature , and have no brains and yet they exis, consciousness as the human species sees it doesn’t exist in the Sequoia species .although they have the power to exist for thousands of years, I don’t think the human species has that power of consciousness , they have the same DNA and they do everything that humans do ,we should study more of their consciousness surely they have something to offer . They live in the same planet.
Did you know there are more in Britain now than in California. There are half a million in Britain, but the oldest is just 200 years old and the tallest over here 55 metres.
Yes, I know what you have in Britain. But this video was more of a tea to focus on California.
We have two in Bournemouth upper gardens

They covered earth at one time😊
Eeh what did he say I can't hear anyway so it sounds okay to me!!!!! But the reading is good!!!!!
Great video, but thumbs down for the “white supremist” comment as it adds absolutely no value to the subject. 😢

The history and activities of both state and national organizations that were established as a result of the commercial discovery of the sequoia tree, its development into a part of the US economy, and subsequent efforts to protect it, are closely linked to the history of racist attacks against people of color. Many of the conservation organizations that exist today have unfortunately contributed a lot to what has been done against people of color. Some organizations are trying to come to terms with this, but it is questionable how successful they are. You can read more on this topic at the links below.

I don't get what you mean by a "white supremist union"? Please explain.

@@EpitomeVideo out of curiosity I will read into these. After all white people did steal America in the first place. Thanks and I will send you a reply.
Just don’t dwell on it and be a victim in life. It’s important to remember the past. Be we have immigrants of all backgrounds with only 10 bucks in their pockets who can find success in America.
“ A white supremacist?”
? ? ? 🤣

I wish we could get just 1 video without mentioning "climate change" in some nebulous way.
Hello, thank you for your interest. The nature and purpose of the channel is to offer the viewer an intellectual and engaging exploration on a scientific basis. In this context, we take care that the information provided by each video has scientific accuracy. That's why we prioritize quality over quantity. But at the same time, we don't want to bore viewers with scientific and boring terms. In this respect, we try to strike a balance between quality and attractiveness. So this is neither a pure entertainment channel nor a lecture channel. If you want to explore the intellectual things about life and nature, you are in the right place.
I can't wait to see them ! God is incredible!
Maybe there's a legitimate reason for AI narration, but if it's just for play sake, I despise it!
I really hate that so many videos have an ai voice now. Its like watching a really long tiktok with their stupid computer voice
It's true that video speech dubbed by AI tools doesn't have the same flavor as a real human voice. In fact, AI voiceovers have been around for a long time. However, the proliferation of AI tools has increased these voiceovers. Because it is much less costly and laborious. The reason why we use artificial intelligence voiceover on this channel is that it actually costs less. Because professional tools are very expensive. Finally, as the channel administrator, I still find my English pronunciation insufficient :) I hope you will be tolerant of the shortcomings in the channel and support us.
Let's be perfectly clear, the U.S. forest service didn't "take a long while to realize" the fires were necessary to health of the forest. The idiotic practice of extinguishing all fires in the forest, was born of complete disrespect of the vast knowledge of the people's who occupied these lands, for 1000's of years before European's declared this place as "ours". Get with it U.S. There's lots to learn from cultures other than my horrifically stubborn dominating gov't. here on Turtle Island. Running for our lives from elsewhere, one might think we'd be more open to the wisdom of the tribal elders here before us, but instead we're like invasive species having done huge damage in just a few centuries. High time to become the stewards humans are meant to be.
Coastal redwoods are actually the largest tree species not giant seqouia. The giant seqouias just have larger still existing trees. But coastal redwoods are much taller, 50 to 100 feet taller on average. And the oldest are even older and thicker than giant seqouias. A recently, last decade or so, discovered coast redwood is wider at its trunk than the widest giant seqouia.
That’s what the Robot Said! Moron!
Coastal redwoods are taller but not thicker. Can you share references about the discovery you mentioned?
I wish every American could see these Giants that live amongst us...some were here when the Christ walked the earth 🌎🌍
Wow,,,,
I doubt it
@@keithfaulk1354 some of those trees are more than 3000 years old ...this is 2024 ... just saying....
@@keithfaulk1354 your doubt doesn't change the fact.
@@elisemiller13 what facts ?? There are none!!
You had me until you started talking about "climate crisis". Have you ever heard of Solar Radiation?
When you say solar radiation, I think you just don't mean the sun's rays on the visible spectrum. Because solar radiation is a wide flow of energy that contains different electromagnetic frequencies. This includes the rays necessary for living organisms in the world, and there are harmful ones. In general, we can divide radiation into three. These are: direct solar radiation, widespread solar radiation and reflected solar radiation and the sum of all of them global radiation. I don't understand exactly what you mean. However, as I said, more or less, useful or harmful, all of the rays coming from the sun are already considered electromagnetic radiation of the sun. Solar radiation can be counted among the natural causes of forest fires. Because the radiation accumulates in the atmosphere that creates a greenhouse effect and increases the average temperature of the world. Therefore, if solar radiation causes forest fires to emerge, this is the global warming and climate change that I call the "climate crisis". Can the solar radiation cause forest fire independently of this? Actually yes. The causes of forest fires include both global warming -related solar radiation and solar radiation independent of global warming. However, research usually shows that global warming has a greater effect on forest fires. It can increase the frequency and severity of forest fires by creating conditions such as global warming, temperature increases and drought. This causes forests to become more dry and more prone to burning. On the other hand, solar radiation can cause fire, especially in dry and hot conditions. As a result, although both factors are among the causes of forest fires, the effects of global warming are wider and more comprehensive. The radiation that causes fires independent of global warming is not as much as the climate crisis and the destruction caused by global warming. Among the natural reasons, the increase in forest fires is essentially due to the rise of the average temperature of the world. Research has also proved that industrialization and other human activities increase the average temperature of the world at least 1 degree. We also saw that 2023 was the hottest year. These temperatures are expected to increase further. Moreover, the increase in these temperatures and the proliferation of forest fires over the years follows a proportional path. Especially in the last 50 years due to human activity, the melting of glaciers, the increase in harmful gases and the erosion of the atmosphere that protects the world is also related to this. If the main reason for the increase in forest fires and other problems I have counted, the consequences of this would appear different if the effect of pure solar radiation was independent of the climate crisis. In other words, the 11-year cycle of solar radiation, the development of these cycles independently of human activity and the condensation of radiation in the north and south poles, the proliferation of forest fires in the 21st century, the condensation of fires in tropical/semi-tropical regions, the inability to control the radiation from the sun and the development of other problems does not coincide. However, it is necessary to understand the following difference; Greenhouse gases imprison the solar radiation in the atmosphere, which increases the average temperature of the world, and as a result we encounter many problems such as drought, glacier melting, forest fire and air pollution. In other words, the natural causes of forest fires include solar radiation, but the reason for this is the global climatic crisis that increases this temperature. Finally, the imprisonment of solar radiation in the atmosphere, the natural reason for the increase in temperature, but we see that the reason for this is the greenhouse gases. Therefore, if forest fires are increasing due to temperatures, it is also due to the fact that human activity reaches a harmful point for the world. In addition, if you want to listen more about solar radiation about the 11 -year cycle, you can look at this video: th-cam.com/video/x0ryoyjtmtk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2ogmpxryed_9fjzl
Giant? Why is there a miniature version? 😅🤣😂😝🤪😜
Miniature versiyon?
the narration is absolutely dreadful making this impossible to watch. perfect example of pairing ai narration with the wrong video. epic fail
Thanks for your criticism. If you also explain aspects of the narration that do not match the AI voiceover, we can work on them to improve them.
There’s no improvement needed. It actually is a very good narration and informative. I enjoyed this video as I learned more about the Sequoia tree.
Thank You@@michaela9798
@@michaela9798 well f@cktard, you weren't being asked so mind your own business. your opinion is like your a$$hole, nobody asked for it, nobody wants it. (unless you're hot in which case, need to see it before judgment)
@@EpitomeVideo thanks for responding and asking for feedback. i found the narration to be very rapid, flat. what i'm referring to is if fell flat, a single tone without expression. sounded like someone was simply reading off facts in rapid fire succession and less like sharing information about a tree that is as old as time. as for the speed of the speaking, i felt uneasy in my stomach because the video movement didn't keep up with the verbal narration. my eyes were expecting faster edits based on the speaking speed. i hope that helps and again, thanks for asking.
They are not the coastal redwoods are taller!!!
"Largest", not tallest.
You Dumb! And Deaf!🙉
