Oct 04, On Friday, two giant sequoia trees fell over side by side, blocking a portion of the short, but popular, Trail of the Giants in the southern Sierra-Nevada Mountains. No one was hurt, but a visitor happened to capture the last few seconds of the fall on video (two more videos below shows the above video in a vertical frame/slow motion and the tree right after it hit the ground).Estimated Reading Time: 1 min.

These trees continue to sequester carbon out of our atmosphere as they put on new wood every year.

And even felled, the Pioneer Cabin Tree will continue to store that carbon in its wood for hundreds of years, keeping it out of our atmosphere. Reviews: 2.
