Top 15 OLDEST Trees Still Living

- The battle for the title of ‘the oldest tree still living’ is an on-going battle. But the battle is not as simple as it seems. Some trees of non-clonal, and some are clonal, so the battle is a ‘clone war’ of sorts. Clonal trees are genetically identical trees that share one root system, so their can be lots of clonal trees of different ages. Non-clonal trees don’t do that - they don’t practice cloning. And when it comes to the oldest tree still living, there is a distinction between clonal and non-clonal trees. So, in short, there isn’t just ‘one title’ for the world’s oldest tree that’s still living. There are several based on the type of tree. Today, we’re going to take a look at them all, from the most ancient non-clonal, to the oldest clonal. Here are the Top 15 Oldest Trees Still Living.

I really loved when he talked about italos and then showed a picture of italos
I have visited the sequoia and redwood in California and the memories and photos are still with me. Awesome ❤
Another tree that should be on this list is the Huon Pine from Tasmania. It is not a real Pine, but from an ancient group that once grew in Antarctica when Dinosaurs roamed there. The Huon Pine does not even mature and produces seeds until it is 1400 - 1600 years old. A trunk that was buried underground is the oldest found at 3800 years old. Huon Pines are protected, but the old stumps and submerged logs found in rivers are still milled today.
10500 years from sources I read. Like Wollemi clonal.
Why aren’t the “ Woolami pines” on this list?. It may be more than 60 million years old. The Wollemi pine clones itself, forming exact genetic copies. It was thought to be extinct until a tiny remnant population was discovered in Wollemi National Park in 1994.
They obviously didn't do the research Graeme, Australia doesn't exist in some parts of our world. I thought the same as you mate, where is the Woolami ???
Maybe they know nothing about it
The guy said non clonal over and over the first 3 minutes of the video.
60 million years old? Listen to this 🤡! The earth is only about 6 thousand years old. Haha.... 60 million years old. Thanks for the laugh tho...
“Non clonal”
When i went to st vincent i went on a nature trail theres a lil rain forrest and some massive trees that are thousands of years old the vines that grow on the trees where bout 3ft thick and the actual trees where enormous the roots where visable where 4ft thick too great kontent and very informative 🤘
Inyo County, California? So one county contains the highest point in the 48 contiguous United States (Mount Whitney), the lowest point in the contiguous United States (Death Valley) and possibly the world's oldest living tree.
Plus the World’s Largest in Volume, General Sherman in Sequoia NP. Pretty damn amazing.
I really enjoyed this video. Thank you
Love it! Thanks for the video :)
Didnt show a picture or video of the italian pine...#7? Just showed some beautiful drone footage... kind of disappointing
I had the same thought. Where was the tree?
Down in Texas, in the Guadulpe river just above the dam, there is a bald cypress tree growing right in the middle of the river which is massive. If I describe how big this tree is you would swear I'm exaggerating. Its huge.
Hey I live right off the Guadalupe river myself and we see massive trees also out here EVERYWHERE but lots of things go unnoticed or they haven’t yet been studied
'Te Matua Ngahere' - Father of the Forest, is considered the second largest living Kauri tree in New Zealand although it achieves greater points that Tane Mahuta. It is also considered to be the oldest out of the two largest living Kauri trees and is estimated to exceed 2000 years old. The tree was discovered by Nicholas Yakas in 1928 when he and other men were working to build the road that is now known as State Highway 12.
I was just about to leave a comment about our Kauri trees (everyone always forgets about New Zealand 🙄). Unbelievable that neither are on any list of oldest trees, although maybe that's because we don't actually know how old they are, some estimates say Tane Mahuta is under 2500, others say its over 3200.
Amazing!
A truly impressive video production. Another "ancient" tree you might consider is the Bennett Juniper. It is located in the Stanislaus forest in East-central California. It is south of Hwy. 108 near the town of Dardanelle. The tree is 70-80 feet tall with a trunk 9 feet in diameter at ground level. A core sample taken about 40 years ago estimates it's age over 6000 years old. You can drive to it, but it is NOT easy, multiple forest roads are the only way in........
I like Methuselah, it is a different kind of tree but very beautiful in his own style. And the one from Iran, the Cyprus of Amarca is also very pretty. I am glad that it is preserved and protected. LOVE all these trees, they are magnificent and very iconic trees. 💚💚♥️♥️🥰😍
Thank you for keeping the true number one a secret.🤫
Central Florida (used) to have an estimated 3,500 year old Bald Cypress tree named, 'The Senator'. It was the biggest and oldest bald cypress tree in the world at the time of it's fiery demise. It was located in Big Tree Park, Longwood, Florida.
On February 28, 2012, the Florida Division of Forestry said they arrested a 26-year-old woman on suspicion of starting the Senator fire. The suspect stated that she regularly went to the tree site when the park was closed. On the night of January 16, 2012, she lit a fire with debris so that she could see the crystal meth that she was trying to smoke, but the fire got out of control. It boggles the mind how stupid and un-thinking some people can be. I used to frequent the park in my youth and stare up at the Senator in wonder, thinking of how many human life times it had seen. All that history just gone. My heart sank when I heard to news.
Thanks for Sharing 😊
I'm humbled.... so majestic
What about the “Gran Abuelo” in Chile, estimated in 5400 years old…
it was mentioned, watch the video again
@@jasonbates2687 they mistakenly mention that it is in Argentina, that's why the confusion
Imagine the long history we all could learn if these trees could talk.
they do - they communicate through your Heart.
Your videos are so educational and fascinating thank you
5:46 the Great Grandfather, a tree of the species larch, lahuán or pathogenic larch is in Chile, in the Alerce Costero National Park
May the tree continue to live for thousands more years. Nature is truly beautiful
You forgot one. The oldest bush that grew into a tree, and you can go and see it ( DO NOT TRY TO TOUCH IT AS BEDOUINS HAVE DIED INSTANTLY FROM DOING THAT ) and you will amazed.
It is the bush that Moses saw on fire, without being consumed.
At the base of Jabal Al Laws ( Arabic for The Mountain of Moses -videos on UA-cam and the real "Mt Sinai" )
Any chance you could name the first song at the beginning? I keep hearing it everywhere now but don’t know the name.
There is a very old Osage Orange tree (Hedge apple) in Harrodsburg, Kentucky that was there before the town was founded in 1774. Maybe not as ancient as some but a very old specimen. It is located in the park in front of Old Fort Harrod.
Let us hope the human-induced climate change doesn't end up murdering these magnificent living beings.
Debbie downer....
I wouldn't worry about it.
Well, they survived the man made ice age, the snow caps melting, the acid rain and the hole in the ozone layer so they must be pretty sturdy.
@@zufalllx you really should..have u been to jersey or india?!
@@JustCharlesBro we really shouldn’t. Human induced climate change only makes up .004% of overall natural climate change.
Trees are allowed to live longer than all other creatures because they don't get to move around.
Hi wow cool
at first i thought the thumnail was a giant nug o' weed lol
GREAT VIDEO 👌THANKING YOU
there is an olive tree in crete that is claimed to be 2000 years old based on the tree's ring analysis by experts, but most people believe it to be around 4000 years old, and it still produces olives. worth taking a look and do your own research if you are interested :)
Wow, WOW wow
I like your picture, how long's your hair? I find that attractive, please describe it?
There is a 4500 years old juniper tree in Ziarat, Pakistan🇵🇰. The speciality of this tree is that this tree grows 5mm in a year and 1inch in 5 years. Our government protected this tree. There are several videos on youtube about this Juniper tree.
There’s a world record for being the fourth largest tree? That makes no sense. A world record is by the very definition singular.
There is in the island of Crete in Greece an olive tree believed to be to be 6,000 years old.
You should look into that.
"I spread"...that reminded me of "I AM"
Could you please put the name of the trees and their location on the screen? Thank you.
Coastal redwoods and giant sequoias are related but have different binomial classification.
Chris k a n e introduced The Forest of azure to the screaming trees.
If they can only talk and have consciousness and are able to store/absorb information .. they will tell us the truth of the past..
WOW AMAZING ~ IF the video is Factual not fiction
Well, I think you have forgotten same Trees in Australia and Tasmania, we have got in Western Australia an area called the Valley of the Giants, I don't know the exact size of some of the Trees, but I am sure there not called Giants for nothing.
In 1890 an Eccentric Welsh Biologist Brought back 2 Seeds from a pine cone ! From the WELLINGTON PINE. Trees. They are from NEW ZEALAND . And they have been growing on my old grandads Lands for 110 yrs. they are mighty there like The two guardians of the valley. They also have drawn up a giant boulder mound. . I will send fotos.
What about Tane Mahuta the Giant Kauri in New Zealand where does that stand within this list ???
The last time I visited it it took 18 adults fingertip to finger tip to go around the base of tree but that was when I was a kid of 12 and now I’m 42 I’m sure it would be bigger
Age not size
Well it is old also
But fair enough then
@@reecedye3914 sounds cool though.
In Iran There is A lot Walnut Oak Cypress and Maple Trees With More Than 3000 Years!!!
Also Oldest Forest In The world is In Iran Which also is UNESCO Heritage site
There's a bald Cypress tree in nc that's estimated to be at least 2674 years old.
In the now southern Jersey New York State. There was a COTTON tree that an old INDIAN shaman lived in the Lightning blasted hollow! Which was a great hall . With many chimneys and platforms! In 1700 the Westerns peoples cam killed OLD JIM. The shaman and cut down the tree with saws and Axes hammers and wedges. There went a tree that was 8k old
Chris k a n e was there when man invented fire.

Why I feel we should cut them down count the rings on a contest .. 🤣 I just want to cut them down
Either you are not showung the right photos of Metusaleh, but shpuld it not have at least some of the leaves to indicate it is really still alive ? 🤔
Oldies big trees
Mountain ash 390 ft high it was cut down so it could be measured only few left now
The President is described as a sequoia, which it is, then a redwood, which it’s not. They are two different types of trees.
I’m a true Tree hugger.
Also Morninga, Mental
If these trees could talk 😳
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Taking core samples seems incredibly wreckless. Why would you even attempt in trying to cut into something so old? Just estimate and leave it be.
but do trees like to be hugged ?
Is it just me or does this guy sound like Charlie Sheen but without the drugs and the winning weirdness
el gran abuelo, It is the oldest living tree on the planet.
My village 600yers old tree 5yekr big tree gineis record tree
incorrect.baobab trees in southern africa is more than 6000 years old
Angel oak ?
According to Wikipedia you're completely wrong about many of these
I like your picture, how long's your hair? I find that attractive, please describe it?
@@danielobrien1571 it goes down to my shoulders but I have it tucked to the back of my neck
@@MaryQQ Thanks for responding, and that sounds like a pretty length there. You mean tucked it up like in a bun? Let it free and show it off often since I adore ladies that grow their hair to luxurious lengths like Rapunzel's and I love the dedication they take to get it that long. Can you tell me more about it like how thick it is? How do you like to wear it and do you like it brushed and played with? Also, can you tell me about yourself and you interests please?
@@danielobrien1571 yes like a bun, indonweae my hair out usually. I used to have hair straight down to my lower back but decided for a change thanks.
@@MaryQQ Very attractive hair you have, ever tried a fantasy roleplay game? I have one where you'd have to release your hair out of the bun and let me admire and touch it for awhile while you imagine smoking cigarettes for me if you're game for that sort of thing. It will be us using our imaginations and I do find some woman that smoke to be very charming so would you play this with me and we'll see where we can take this Roleplay fantasy to?
168 ft tall and 16 meters wide. ???? Why explain this majestic Tree in this way. Is it Taller then it’s high or visa Versa . This sort of crap gets on my nerves ….
Why are you showing footage of The President when you’re clearly talking about General Sherman? This is a consistent problem on your Top 5 videos. Showing footage of something not related to the ranking you’re discussing. It’s too frequent to take the channel seriously anymore.
Cut it down !!!!!!!!! I need more junk mail here in st.Petersburg , Florida ☠️
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view!"
Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ."
Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!"
Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..."
Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea !"
Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky."
Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction."
Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?"
Where is the African tree's
what do you do asks for I D ?
They will out live all of us. Out of all of gods creation,why are trees still standing as the silent sentinels and guardians of time. Far superior to the nature of man
I almost fell off my damn couch listening to the description and make-up of Tree #2 called "Pando". The tree is made up of many hundreds of tree trunks (or shoots) that grow upwards from the root system *AND* (wait for it) is considered the largest known 'ORGASM'⁉️⁉️ in the world.
🧠😘💥😂🤪🔥💦
That's what happens when you rely on computer-read scripts.
Why is the Devil tower not on here it a tree I should be number 1 for being million of year old
When you remake your past videos for the sake of views and getting subs
Not everyone had seen his past videos so go watch something else till he puts something new for you :)
SHUT UP
How can a living tree be 7,000 old ? The creationists say the entire universe is only 6,000 years of !
Back to the drawing board
This fragile of a tree .. ! What kind of grammar is that ?
Ok who says these trees are that old really 1000 4000 years old no one knows that how and who figures how old they are i dont get it its impossible
The last tree shown, the bristlecone pine, had a sample taken in the 1950s and it took until 2012 of examination of the rings and cross checking in the laboratory before the age was fully verified. It's not an easy process but not impossible.
I like your picture, how long's your hair? I find that attractive, please describe it?
Just because you don't get it, doesn't make it impossible. I don't imagine you know what makes MRI machines tick, either.
Why are you saying everything Spanish with an accent?
You don't have an accent.
It's weird.
no way you're pressed over that
My favorite part is always when this shit narrator completely butchers a pronunciation
