How The 75-Ft. Rockefeller Christmas Tree Makes It To NYC | Big Business

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ต.ค. 2024
- This year's iconic Rockefeller Christmas tree was found in someone's yard in Oneonta, NY four years ago. To get the donated, 75-foot-tall tree to Manhattan took a team of dozens of workers, huge cranes, and a 115-foot trailer. While this year's Norway Spruce ended up as full and bright as past years', it had its fair share of viral moments, with an orphaned owl, COVID-19 restrictions, and rumors of tree extensions.

How The 75-Ft. Rockefeller Christmas Tree Makes It To NYC | Big Business
This is so??? They literally just donated it? Wanted no money? That’s an 80 year old tree and they just cut it down like that wtf lol.
My thoughts exactly
Guy is a dumbass to just give them his tree free of charge. That tree is a centerpiece for Rockefeller Center
Looked ugly to be honest until they added more branches
Eventually a tree that tall/old will become a liability so close to people’s houses and would cost a lot to get removed.
@@MRLONG758 I know! It’s infuriating. It has grown for 80 years just to be cut down and put in Rockefeller centre for around 31 days. is it really does look like a 2020 tree though
Imagine cutting down a hundred year old tree so you can put a few lights on it for a week then toss it away
True American style
Imagine telling all the people involved to find out they couldn't give any less fucks.
@@Gozza0000 Do you know Christmas tree did not come from America, but from Northern Europe?
It might get Covid so probably be down before Christmas she said can’t touch a Tree lmao hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Gozza0000 *true Christan style
Real trees are nice . But get a fake one . no point in cutting down an old tree. You can barely see the actual tree anyway due to decorations.
Tradition
@top RAHmen get one in a pot... With roots so it's living
@top RAHmen Now I totally want a potted Christmas tree for year-round enjoyment. Sigh. I can't, sadly I have a black thumb.
@@doriosity5811 see! Imagine if they just had one growing there year round! Then it would be even more special because it’d be the same tree.
Just planted one on the center of the city, and wait for it grow high😆
Killing an 80 year old tree... At least the Owl survived - minus it's home.
Hey, Karl.
Yeh Christmas tree Nahi Chahiye ji.
Hi pew-
Sorry overused.
NOOOO! They should just plant a tree at the Rockefeller Centre. Let it grow at its own pace. Don’t kill something so old and big just for decoration year after year and throw it away after 10 days. That’s just sad.
Or do it the way the Japanese do to relocate giant trees; excavate and pull out the tree with its core roots intact and plant it there. Don’t cut it please.
That would be more meaningful and cultural. Ameriva loves to tear down
agreed
why couldn’t they just pay them lmaoo
They would have if the couple weren't dumb enough to donate it
And that's how they are rich lol
*Dick* family
@@Bigj-bf4mn Sorry they were more successful than you... No need to be butthurt.
@@Bigj-bf4mn 💯
Donate it ?
They should have paid for it.
@@DrunkenDove it is a charity thought
Why if ppl are willing to donate it?
Just saw this. Said same thing
It’s a massive tax deduction.
When's the last time "Big Business" paid for anything??
It is painful seeing an old giant tree being chopped down for decoration then ended up as trash.
I wasn't delighted by this video about Christmas. It broke my heart.
Its not trashed after. It will be turned into lumber for habitat for humanity
Tree huggers don't understand the concept of forestry, especially on the topic of timber utilization
What do you wipe your crack with?
@@tylerj8046 Not a Christmas tree, and if I did, I think this one may be a little too unwieldy :P
The bird didn’t “hitch a ride,” it was taken from its home
~ *kidnapped* ~
They literally took it's house
That poor owl got kidnapped, and then named after it's abductor.
Colonisers for you
why not just transplant a tree to that spot so it could be used year round for Christmas and shade. this would defeat chopping an old tree every year
It would be very hard to maintain a tree in the middle of a city and the roots would mess with sewage, tunnels and nearby buildings. Good idea though.
@@benjaminbiondi8857 there are several ways to control the root growth.
@@benjaminbiondi8857 New York could easily take care of one tree if they could do some other minuscule thing.
Fake tree¡
I don’t think any tree of substantial size would survive the transplanting process, and the concrete would keep any younger trees from developing strong and healthy roots. You’d probably need to renovate the entire square if you wanted a place for a living tree to grow, especially if you wanted it to reach any significant height.
Still, I’d prefer that over cutting 80 year old trees every year and hauling them across the city just for a few weeks of decoration.
I wouldn’t let those maggots cut a tree out of my yard go take one of the 800 million between the rickerfeller estates
I know right, lol and they didn't get paid. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
@@DazedMMJ87 terrible ehh what a nice tree was better in their yard
@top RAHmen ok well that’s not your decision and they kept it there sooo
@@DanielW607 stfu
@@cmmartti Yea, your right about that and I do realize it's expensive cus I had one cut from my property when I first moved in but I wouldn't do it if I had that one.
The tree lived 80 years, so it would be eliminated for an entertainment purpose. You made fake branches but could not make a fake tree using the same organic materials.
@John Carter no
@John Carter because it would be like 3 feet tall lmao
Look, I’m sorry but all of you haters don’t know what this tree means to 8 millions of New Yorkers. It is a beacon of hope in a time of darkness this tree went from being a road side tree to a symbol of hope and joy for millions. The fact that the tree is so close to being 100% authentic means so much for people in a time where we are sick of people lying to us. I love trees and the environment but this tree with it’s one life improved the lives of millions.
@Crazy Rules trees dont feel pain
@Crazy Rules Trees are not living beings. They don't feel pain.
1. Why cut down such a lovely old tree for a few weeks.
2. Probably should had paid the family.
3. Hope the owl was okay after being stuck for days.
It's sad to take down a perfectly healthy 80 year old tree. Can't you think of something different? All the animals that lived in that tree.
Why can’t they just make the artificial one? Or grow one in front of the building.
Growing a tree that big takes about 100 years or so, so that definitely isn’t an option. They use a real tree as tradition because using a fake one would almost kill the magic and the chance of the tourists numbers lowering over a fake tree is a risk they’re not willing to take.
Cause in the yard thingy if they grow one it will take a lot time and if the roots invade the buildings space it will make the building unstable and the yard has a lot of concrete so no water can perforate the ground and roots can also ruin the concrete by making the soil underneath not flat
We've always wondered the same thing. Besides, if they can't plant / grow one, with todays technology, they can totally make fake life like tree. Heck, they could even install pine fragrance misters like disney does for their bakeries. Save the environment and still get an amazing tree ever year. It would be a win-win.
Cus its in new york wont grow
@@kindereggs4263 It would still grow but it will be slower because the soil on rockefeller is not enough to make it grow and the roots will probably penerate the sewage systems.
This actually makes me incredibly sad
Ditto.
Same
Why couldn’t they just dig up the roots plant it there and just keep it there I mean wouldn’t the tree help with pollution?
don't watch then.
@@disguisedgoose2468 Trees like that have insanely huge roots and would be nearly impossible to scavenge them out of the ground.
What a waste! Destroyed an 80 years tree for a couple days joy.
You do realize the tree is going to be turned into lumber to build homes for people, they literally stated this at the end of the video.
@@joshsastronomy5884 more homes, more people, more oil, more electricity usage, more cars, more food and garbage ruining earth with all the greenhouse gages yeah sure bud
@@onyx7116 That's what renewable energy is for, like solar and wind. Either way you have a very skewed view of reality if you think letting people stay homeless is going to help solve climate change lol. Getting rid of homes and not building new homes is not going to solve climate change, using renewable energy and practicing more sustainable industries will help solve climate change. Your mindset is very confusing I don't understand how you can view building homes for people in desperate need of somewhere to live as a negative thing.
We're in covid season. Yes, we'd like a couple days of joy. I dont tet why everyone is upset over this🤷🏽♀️
@@thetongueofangels1882 it's nature!!!
It’s like watching a crucifixion. That massive tree lived for so much time only to be made a Christmas tree and thrown away. That poor owl lost his home.😞
is it just me or did anyone else feel bad for the tree being cut down after living such a long, beautiful life 😭
Celebrate the life it had
Yall acting like there aren't a million other trees which have lived far longer than that one

Yessss
really a small 3 foot tree, even then if you would make a fake one of that size it would probably end up being worse for the environment
@@Nonnopenahnadanuhuh it would be in the short term if it was a one off thinh but if they refused it every year for a while it would probably be better
@@wiggindorfthemagnificent the process of making it and if it was short term is the bad part
@@wiggindorfthemagnificent tho I do see your point
We should petition this since a lot of us agree that cutting down 80 year old trees to use for a few short weeks, is wasteful.
How we can still use the wood it’s not a waste
Who cares how old the tree is. The tree can be used for wood, paper, etc.
@@carrots7216 Its 1 tree. This is no different than someone getting a Christmas tree. Only difference is this tree the way bigger. They said in the video the wood is donated to build homes. 1 tree getting cut down for display then getting donated isn't an issue. You act like its getting thrown in the trash with all the other Christmas trees.
@@carrots7216 That whale analogy would be good but its not like there's billions of trees or anything. There are plenty of uses for branches. These people aren't saints but who really is. Nobody. That tree probably isn't going to make a lot of home but at least they're using it for something instead of throwing it away like everyone else. How many people properly discard there Christmas tree after they're done with it. They've been doing this for almost a century but all of a sudden its getting hate now more that ever. Where was all this commotion last year or the year before or the last decade? Talk to the people cutting down trees for no reason just to make room for shopping malls.
None of your business.
It was 80 years old. Yall really just killed of an 80 year old tree for a god damn decoration.
That tree went through ww2, vietnam war, and the cold war. And they are using it for a christmas tree and throwing it away after a few weeks.
Why tho, you cut down an eighty year old tree an then add fake extensions to make it look fuller.... I mean couldn’t you make the whole thing artificial I’m just saying 🙄......

Seriously....
True, imagine the beautiful birds' inhabitant now destroyed in the midst of the concrete jungle.
Knowing how long since they've been doing it they could've actually grown a tree there and decorate it no need to cut down a tree
Frr tho
You people make it sound so heart warming and beautiful, that you KILLED this old beautiful tree
THE OWL LOST ITS HOME, THE TREE ITS LIFE, JUST FOR A DAYS CELEBRATION. PEOPLE SUCKS
NYC is just evil
I feel bad for plants, like not to be a snowflake but every organism have a life and we just take take take all the time.. imagine the billions of trillions of quadrillions of quintillion’s of trees we have slaughtered over the many thousand years we have became smart enough to gather resources

Should have saved the tree.
Plant a damn tree and decorate it with lights every year.
This tradition is ridiculous.
Killing a beautiful tree and then letting it die, to show it off... I blame the people who donated it, just publicity...
There are trillions of trees i think we spare 1
Nahhhh y’all gotta give me cash for a 80 year old tree being put in front of everyone.
So they got it for free and now they gonna make millions off of tickets. GOOD job 👏
I mean they CHOSE to donate it, their fault imo
Feel bad for the mother owl still flying around looking for the tree.
I dont know why I felt so bad but the way she said "It just takes a few minutes to saw the tree" so happily just made me tear up. Such a shame
She sounds psychopathic.
who else felt bad for that 80 year old tree, they should definitely plant 10,000 trees each time they cut a tree down. that’s only fair
This is actually really sad. They cut down an 80+ year tree every year to show for a few weeks and don't even pay the people for it? Wow.
Edit: Aww the owl :(
It's better than wasting tonnes of plastic to make a fake one.
@@BobSmith-pl6sm or just grow a REAL one in front of the building 😑
@@Nightmare-yx2nl That would take at least 80 years before it is of a suitable size. It's much more sustainable to cut down one tree rather than make one out of plastic and metal.
Well my country does use alot of plastic and use fake trees as christmas trees i actually never used a real tree as a christmas tree before
Step 1: destroy owls habitat
Mother earth sheds so many tears around this time.
No, our house cuts trees by the roots and plants them back aftereards.

They cut down a tree that’s over 80 years old and cut down the owls home :(
Wow.. we are at new low nowadays.
Celebrating a cutting of 100 year old tree
Congratulations 🍾🎊
Giving flowers without a pot to loved ones and friends and having a Christmas with a real tree means you are giving/using a dead plant to celebrate a happy occasion. The irony.
How about considering flowers of a plant as hair of a human? It is root that matters.
Most flowers don’t take 80 years to grow and flowers aren’t the entirety of the plant.
Giving a potted plant to someone in the hospital is supposed to mean they’ll be there a while, so that’s an exception.
That’s a shame cutting down that beautiful tree to put lights on it. Damn that’s cold.
this is sad, that tree was older that most of us
Man this really puts how weird of a tradition we have into perspective
Everyone involved talking so excitedly as if it's something to be proud of. Seriously? Cutting down an old tree just to keep it on display for few days, shame on them.
Instead this, they should plant a tree at that place in Manhattan, and decorate it every year, then it would look fresh and there will be no cutting of trees!!
"Yeah here we cut the 80 year old tree just for decoration?" Dude wtf!!!
Next year they should just have a tiny little Charlie Brown tree
Yesss and one that is growing from the roots
@@shamitanarukulla1508 like a tree is gonna grow in concrete......
@@potatobeard576 i feel like they can make some space for some soil
@@shamitanarukulla1508 they would need 1000 cubic feet or 2800 litres of soil just for one tree. Not to mention the roots would mess up the sidewalk. It just isnt a worth it investment
@@potatobeard576 aw rlly thats so sad:(( Then I wish they could just reuse a fake giant ass tree every few years
Everyone butthurt because they want something to be mad at. The tree is beautiful and really is a sight to behold. Everyone worries about one tree but saying nothing of the millions of real trees bought every year for Christmas, then thrown away, or at the very least, turned into mulch.
People will complain about anything anymore. Get a life already!
Finally somebody who supports it being a decoration i mean theres millions of trees so everybody is just stupid
That poor little owl 🦉😍
Imagine sleeping in your house and the next day waking up in new york city
Donor? Wtf. Those guys are making millions in tourism and they don't even pay for the tree every year!!??!
I honestly believe that this is the last time that New York will be able to afford this tradition
You’re wrong sir. You should look up NYC budget. You will be blown away how much money NYC makes.
@@michaelmcneffii1912 Umm....you do know that you are talking about budget plans pre Covid 19 right??? You are talking about revenue streams New York had prior to:
1) the millionaires and billionaires leaving due to proposals of directly taxing more
2) politicians forcing businesses to close down due to a virus that has a 99% survivability rate
3) the exponential rise in crime
4) NYC commercial/redisdental properties having a new all time high in vaccancies
There is literally no sustainable revenue stream going on in New York...I am a trader/investor and an x-New Yorker....I keep up with this stuff every single day, so trust me when I say that New York is offically done
Their GDP in 2017 was 1.5 trillion dollars
@@goodliving7671 na. NYC will rebuild. The 70’s NYC was a dump no one wanted to live there. Look what happened? They rebuilt. NYC will bounce back. It will take years, but it will be back. Next year they will be lighting the tree again and again and again.
@@goodliving7671 NYC is not paying for this tree. The Rockefeller center is. I don't disagree with you, that vacancies will likely go up, but New York is not going to disappear. And the tree is a tourist attraction that brings people to the Rockefeller center. Its not going away anytime soon.
I didn't know trees can be fluffed up. Learnt something new today.

JUST TRANSPLANT A TREE TO USE FOREVER!
Nearly impossible
Bruh I thought they’d just transplant the tree, replanting it on site then once done either return it to the original location / other location or just leave it there all year round... they didn’t have to kill it....
I thought the same thing, but then when I heard the saw and them use the word "cut" I was like....ummm...wait a second.
Always watching from Georgetown Guyana south America 🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾
"In the Plaza, the tree is cut into large pieces, which are then transported to a mill in New Jersey that does the initial rough sawing. Those pieces are then brought to a landscaping company where they're dried in a kiln and then milled and planed to get them straight and smooth. Only 2x4 and 2x6 beams are made. The finished beams are then stamped, shrink-wrapped and shipped to the Habitat for Humanity affiliate chosen to receive the lumber. The amount of lumber varies based on the size of the tree."
This means that every single year, after Christmas, this tree, that would normally be cut down for lumber at its age, is being cut down to enjoy visually throughout the holiday, and then cut into lumber to build houses for homeless people.
(A simple Google search told me all of this)
Poor tree😔 lives 80 years just to be cut down and used as a decoration. And poor owl lost its home too!😫
Imagine how many homeless you can feed and accommodate using the money to cut and transport the tree
what i see is how many people it gave them a home so to say and not be homeless. giving people work actually helps them not be homeless.
We've always wondered the same thing. Besides, if they can't plant / grow one, with todays technology, they can totally make fake life like tree. Heck, they could even install pine fragrance misters like disney does for their bakeries. Save the environment and still get an amazing tree ever year. It would be a win-win.
Omg for the tree huggers saying "stop cutting down Christmas trees" get a grip on life. It's 1 tree. Do you know how many trees that size get cut down everyday for lumber?? It grew 50 years (like millions of other trees do) but this tree was lucky enough to get displayed to millions of people with its own ceremony. What an honor. Most trees eventually die from natural disaster or burn down from wildfire & never get a chance to be seen. This one was treated like royalty. It's like winning the tree lottery. And best part, the wood eventually goes to Habitat for Humanity.

Damn! All this for a damn tree for us to look at . Poor tree, poor owl
All I care is the owl 🦉 being released back to Mother Earth 🙏❤️‼️#MerryChristmas🎄
I didn‘t know I needed to see this until now
Yeah....another example of how crazy human society has become. So you kill this tree to celebrate a pagan holiday. Yeah.
@Daniel there's something wrong with losing one tree... Specially when we human keeps on growing our population.
@Daniel i can tell ur a trump supporter... congrats on the election btw teehee. Also, No❤️
@Daniel tbh I get ur point about the economy and shit, but at the moment the environment is way more important and that’s what we should be paying attention to, especially during an climate change crisis. I apologize for making such an immature assumption at the time. I am trying to be open to multiple perspectives even though it may not be my personal belief. Sorry:( All luv
Rip tree
I hate it that they cut that tree and crucified it, that tree took years to grow. They should've used a fake tree instead.
A tree made out of plastic would produce A LOT of CO2. But they should have planted new trees. They are the goddamn Rockefellers
@@titusvader3477 maybe they can plant a tree there instead so they can use it every year.
@@M.A.C.01 yeah that would be great but I've heard some people say that it would be hard to control the growth of the root. Those could effect power lines and other things beneath. But it's not like they can't figure that out. They just don't want to.
To everyone who’s upset about them cutting down an old tree for entertainment, at least appreciate the fact that they donated the wood to a habitat for humanity.
I like how the hate comments are all about how short the tree lasts when in reality after the tree comes down the wood is recycled for housing and other useful stuff.
The owl lost her/his home. They should make a fake tree to reuse it every year.
They can use artificial branches but can’t make an artificial tree ?
The branches are from a different tree they cut down.
I haven’t heard of the owl until now
How it more populer then popularWe're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I

HAAAA! This is an excellent representation of 2020.
why is everyone so pissed off??? Like I get that its 80 years old, but the owners chose to give it to the centre, and they literally said once they were done with it they would donate it to an affordable housing charity. Actually watch the video before you pass judgement.
