Lumberjacks chop down trees, but there are trees that garner some well earned respect. We are about to talk about trees. Not just any trees. These Top 5 Trees. Get ready to Owen Wilson.

5. Gujarat's Walking Tree.
This tree is famous in India because it can walk! Well not really. The tree grows parallel with a fig tree that forces the tree to slowly bend over in half. Because of this the tree grows roots slowly on a very tiny sized level to move with its push downward. This allows the tree to move its roots to adapt to the pressure. The moving of the tree takes life spans to notice a difference, so no races will be won. But let’s just say if you left a time lapse video capture this tree for hundreds of years you would be shocked!
4. The General Sherman Tree.
This tree is the largest tree by volume in the world. It is honest to say that It might take a Lumberjack more than one swing to chop it down. If there was a literary comparison, the General Sherman Tree would be the giant whale and the rest of the world Moby Dick. This legend stands at 275 feet high and has been alive and estimated 2,000 years. That is like 39 Shaquille O'Neal's stacked on top of each other and Betty Whites lifespan 20 times!
3. The Thimmamma Marrimanu Tree
Try saying that 5 times really fast! If you just tried and realized it’s not that hard, way to inflate your own ego. But for real this tree was born about 200 years ago in India. Legend tells that those couples that worship at the base of the tree will conceive the following year! That might be a good thing or a bad thing to some. Just be careful with this tree alright, I’m not superstitious or anything but It kind of reminds me of that old tree from Pocahontas.
2. Tree of Ténéré
This magic tree exists in the desert and is 250 miles from any other tree. How did it get out there? Who knows? Is it still out there? No! A drunk driver out in the Libyan desert ran into it back in 1973. The corpse is now resting in a museum.. This is why we can’t have nice things! I mean it’s an open desert, how do you hit the only thing out there?
1. Old Tjikko Tree
Named after Leif Kullmans dog the Old Tjikko is the oldest tree in the world. Science nerds have determined that the tree has grown for 9,550 years. This creature has outlived so many things It’s a little scary. Just imagine, before any Jesus or United States or any of the you, there was this tree. The tree is located in Norway and probably will be there way after Norway is gone.
