The Giant Sequoia, originating in California, has an average lifespan of 3,000 years and can grow up to 94.8 m (311 ft) tall.

These ginormous trees are endangered, though, so please take care of them. Luckily, the wood of the giant sequoia can’t be used for much other than matchsticks.

Who uses matches anymore anyway! Easy does it, loggers!
