Youll never cut these trees on your little mill!
Try cutting those trees on your puny bandmill
The tallest standing Giant Sequoia has a height of about 94.8 metres (311 feet). This tree, named General Sherman, is shown in the photo at our site. While not quite as tall as the highest Coast Redwoods, General Sherman, whose age is about 2000 years, is considered to be the world's biggest tree because it is so massive ... far thicker than most Redwoods. It is the most massive living thing; its total mass has been estimated at 10 times that of a blue whale!
Although General Sherman is the biggest Sequoia, it isn't the oldest. Some Sequoias are as old as 3200 years. But the General is still growing like a teenager; it adds enough wood to its total mass each year to make a brand new 30 metre tall, 30 cm wide tree!
