@@blakespower They don't though. Some trees like yew get hollow with age and others are hollowed out by infestation. A healthy 2,000 year old Redwood, or Doug Fir, or Cedar all will have solid cores unless they're attacked by something like bugs or molds.
I live in the redwoods and we have local legends that report that the biggest of the biggest redwood trees were dropped long ago. There is a local story of a logger who after working in the woods all day returned to town & popped into a saloon for a drink before heading home to supper who reported that on that day him & his crew dropped a big redwood & once on the ground it was measured to a bit over 400ft. And another where the logger reported his big tree measured 420ft. These are first person accounts so they are thought to be true around here. !
I just finished reading "The Wild Trees" and could not help to look up
Dr. Steve Sillett and his work. With all my respect and admiration . . .
PARCC BROUGHT ME HERE
I always wanted to walk in one of these forests
trees dont grow from the inside out. They grow from the out out.
THIS NEEDS TO BE A MEME AND A REMIX
I mean thats only common sense thats why trees get hollow with age

Plant a sequoia seedling, then generate a time loop around it, calibrated for 500 yrs. Presto, big sequoia !

What is the name of this tree they climb
did you know that they have found Coast Redwoods that are larger in mass than Giant Sequoias. Larger than the supposed Largest Tree General Sherman
Giant Redwoods are awesome.One question,do beavers gnaw on the giant Redwoods?Does anyone know?
hmmm beavers only take on smaller trees maybe trees of a diameter of two feet or less.
Different habitats. Giant Redwoods aren't a riparian tree.
good mushrooms there ;-)
I’m currently writing a essay Bc of this video....I hate essays
Big trees are cool, though.
Is anyone aware of the name or style of climbing used for this? I'm interested in learning it and using it for another industry. Thanks
