Original Note:
The tallest living tree is a coast redwood tree known as Hyperion, located in Redwood National Park in California. The video is of a different tree, taken in a different location. Coast redwoods are distinct from giant sequoias, the largest living trees. https://northcoastjournal.com/NewsBlog/archives/2016/05/26/buzzkill-thats-not-the-worlds-tallest-tree https://www.nps.gov/redw/planyourvisit/hyperion.htm https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/You-are-no-longer-allowed-to-visit-the-world-s-17340455.php https://www.nps.gov/parkhistory/online_books/seki/stagner/sec2.htm https://www.nps.gov/seki/learn/nature/bigtrees.htm
