How do you get a permit

If I climbed that tree to the top, I'd be like "Oh shit, how am I getting down?"

Excellent video and share of Spickler's thoughts. We need more like him to pay true respect towards what keep us alive

Wow, that's so awesome and absolutely breathtaking! I love great Redwoods. I grew up with pines and Redwoods in my backyard as a kid (northern california), and I would see birds perched on top and wish I was them so I could see the world all around and below me. The view from Hyperion is something like a dream. I wish I could sit atop it for as long as I wanted. Redwoods by far are my favorite trees. They always make me feel like I'm surrounded by something bigger than me, in a spiritual way. I can't imagine all that they have lived through, and they are like these pillars of wisdom I wish I could speak to. I just have absolute reverence for these trees and they make me love my home all the more!

redwoods and sequoias are my brothers and sisters to me, when i was a kid, we were moving, but i stoped us because we lived in a redwood forest, and we were going to move to a place that got hot and humid, but we stayed in the northcal redwoods, i still today, and i could not leave the trees

Thank you so much, this is a cool video and the narration is great!

one of the most exciting that i see. the combination of the music, the subject and the description is very special.

He gets to the top, is so excited, and when he pulls the branches away to get a view of what he's accomplished...there's a trunk of an even taller tree staring him in the face. Mocking him. Now THAT would have been a good video haha.

Beautiful video. Thank you for raising public awareness of these beautiful forests. Nothing compares to the feeling of standing among these ancient trees and feeling their legacy around you.

one word " amazing " :)

I love the part where Jim Spickler describes what it's like to climb the world's tallest tree.

Great video. Thank you.

In 2018, the easiest way to measure the height is to attach the tape to a drone and fly it up to the tree top.

Or use a laser to measure. Take about 10 seconds.

I was at the bottom of the 2nd largest tree the Stratosphere and it's hard to see the top of the tree and even more since you are surrounded by lots of tall trees around you.

Is this Hyperion?

Certainly is.

I was in Yosemite back in September. I saw redwoods and sequoias, they're simply amazing. I can't imagine just how awesome it would be to be in the top of the world's tallest tree.

that was awesome in sooo many ways! U Rock! U Climb! U inspire with ur vids! Keep rockin!

A view from the canopy of the world's tallest tree is unlike anything that we have seen before. Thank you for showing us.

The video with most comments from 13 years ago than the newest comments. Keep it like this

lol, this guy is really into his trees. he describes it like a tree raised him or he was a tree in a past life

this gave me chills :O well done

spectacular video. thank you!

Amazing that trees could be alive after all those years. I love it.

How cool is that!!! Thx, for the information, dude!

this video is so inspirational.. i love the way he describes the feeling.. it is as if im in there already.

its cool u can see how round the landscape is

Beautiful video.

Amazing....a brilliant video!

Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

amazing. takes some guts too

Watching it in year 2023 is giving a different vibe🙂

good job! its a good documentary and it mustve taken alot of skill and time to do it, amazing ^^

really amazing , good job

Appears to be a beautiful and peaceful place next to nature. The tree is phenomenal. Thank you for sharing that video with us.

amazing, thank you for sharing!

Very Interesting! Nice pictures. Good narration.

Thanks for sharing such an awesome experience and discovery.

this guy is a complete greener. "your now inside this organism"

Everyone should plant trees wherever they can. It takes hundreds years to grow big but only takes a day to take 'm down. Plant a tree , take care of it , watch it grow as if it's a child of your own.

Wow the beginning of this was very ethereal. I've been hearing a lot about canopy scientists lately, it's a very interesting field. -Paul & Andrea

he said its ONE of the highlight in his life and i understand that..nobody was there before...its a cool feeling!

Backpacker Magazine had a great article on the tree this past month. It answers many of the questions that people have been posting.

looks fun

"The crown envelops you" lmao

looks awesome, i would so do that if i wasn't afraid of climbing trees

beautiful video

that was so interesting! wow. now I want to go climb it!

very good video, i also would climb it! thx, keep on doing this work

AWESOME!! love it!!

This trees are so amazing!

Awesome!

Wow. it's amazing what you did and what you do in your job. Keep up the work to protect our forests. I'm a forestry student, and I'm inspired. :-)

Southern coastal Oregon? Where else?

terrific video... very interesting. trees like that are so amazing and climbing them must be even more amazing.

cool thanks for sharing !!

finally an actually good video on the youtube front page.

I get dizzy just watching this great video

Im so proud of you man

Very Amazing. Cool!

I would have been scared shitless up there. Because the wind blows, and because the trunk is so thin, it swaaaays. *shivers*

Wow. That tree is beautiful. I'm blown away by how huge it is. Most of the trees in that forest are likely older than written history. They're living history, and are an incredible testament to nature's longevity.

Hyperion is relatively young for a titan of its size, only about 1,000 years or so. I suspect that there aren't many redwoods in the park Hyperion lives in that would crack the 2,000 year mark, probably only a handful. However, in the last five years, more discoveries have been made in remote places in redwood parks, and some true monsters have been found that could be over 4,000 years old. www.mdvaden.com/redwood_year_discovery.shtml

I somehow imagine Tree beard coming along at any point wondering what you're doing lol. It's a shame that so many of these trees have been cut down for timber and how sad that we treat the world as a giant commodity store!

I love how he feels for nature. I feel that way too, but its hard to feel that way for such a vast forest as that one. I wish I was him.

Wonderful.

Amazing stuff, I'd be too scared to do what your doing.

Thanks for noticeing Ottawa

Fine. I got the title wrong. But that is the reference. And if you read it it mentions that indirect measurement (which you are advocating) gives error rates of up to 1 meter for trees over 40 meters (and this is with line of site and relatively level ground).

@1984wrx they attach the climbing line to the line from the crossbow and pull it up and through!

imagine if he found his dad at the top, explaining that the world is actually bigger than it seems

okay i just realized that its in the last 3 pages of the book.Yeah Preston talks about spickler and Sillett(guy with crossbow) the 2 people to discover this tree were micheal taylor and chris atkins.

beautiful.

beautiful

Casually climbing the Erdtree

Lovely! It would be such a great experience to do that!

No teddy, inaccuracy is an argument against your proposal.

oh wow... I have no words for this

its fun doing this with a drone. You can fly to the tip of it and get a perspective from that vantage point

it is marvelous. very very tall!!! eye is rolling!!

So.... where can we found seeds?

nice job man...i have say just...WOW!!!

Very cool, thanks for sharing something with us that most of us ground dwellers would never see.

Awesome. Can't wait to one day meet the mighty Hyperion!

The problem with that method tedted is determining the coordinates relative to the base of the thodolite.

really nice. now thats tree climbin!

One big-ass tree, cool video.

amazing size and the view. das any one know who did the music fatured on the last moments of this video. amazing piano let me know pls had tryed to contactthe guy who posted it here but he must have had fall down during another climbing escapade.haven`t heard back from him ever or even hi don`t know any help appreciated thnx

wowo! i'm astounded!^^ it was very inspiring (but i could never do that cause i'm scared of heights.T-T)congratulations! *LETS GO SAVE OUR FORESTS!!!!*

a lot of the branches are bigger than most trees, and when they aren't, you run the risk of damaging them.

this guy is so funny, he's so into it. he's totally loving on the trees, awh.

I love that, only the cookie knew her name!

apparently the view from the worlds tallest tree looks just like a bad parachute landing

Looks like my comment didn't post, so I'm trying again. Thank you for sharing this video! I very much enjoyed reading Richard Preston's article and wished that I could see this tree. Your video has allowed me that privelege. For those of you who think this is bogus, try doing a Google search for "Richard Preston" and "climbing the redwoods". The article is great!

The problem tedted is getting those coordinates. Read up on tree height measurements from a university. Even when you have line of sight the measurements are up to a meter off for every 40 meters height.
