I am an English teacher in Japan and the school lunches are pretty healthy,relatively speaking, and it's amazing in taste as well. So for example today I had consume soup with fried blue grenadier and roasted soy flour bread. Way different from the lunchables when I was a kid.
Honey! Whars for dinner?
Bristle-cone Pine!
The tip of Old Tjikko snapped a few weeks ago😔
This man has figured out YouTube. You must make a whole lot..
You do realise that this in another angle that destroys the Great Flood BS idea taken as truth by half the World's population.
Simpson homer Simpson he’s the greatest guy in history, Simpson homer Simpson. He’s about to hit a chestnut tree.
Who else knew what 'Dendrochronology' was due to Genshin Impact?
you sound like a snake lmao ss sssss
China's shit always be killing things
I live 600m above sea level and where i used to live was an inland sea, tons of calcified coral still on the sides of the rivers.
Think Simon needs to start a nature channel, He's got one for everything else so might as well..
If they ever figure out how to date mycelium, they may find it's older than ancient trees. Staying hidden is how to survive it seems. Can you imagine being so "educated" that you're okay with cutting down trees to see how old it was? WT actual F?
3:58 PUPS???
Oh. I misread the title. Now I'm much less interested
Now, this was a very interesting posting on the longevity of lifeforms on earth, very interesting so I decided to throw a tiny tip over at the B.Blaze merch store channel. Thank you.
The oldest tree dated using the science of endocrinology is 4800+ years old any plant that is said to be older is guessing not science
"it's in the script but…" this is why I'm team Simon whistler. youtube is suggesting a lot of similar channels but they don't have values or writing quality
I need an entire video of Ming just swirling over the screen with historical things in the background 😂
I read Orgasms, I thought we were finally getting the Simon Whistler Kama Sutra! Imagine his silky smooth voice giving you instructions on “technique” 😂
just because you dont like the class fantasy, doesn't mean there isn't one. paladins should be like holy powered lawful good knights with a warhorse. i think they are trying to get back to that older class identity. get away from the emo edgelord evil paladin and get back to the roots. you dont have to agree, but there is a direction they are developing.
You been wrong so many times I just sitting here thinking, what one did you get wrong?
The tree in Sweden broke of a large portion of the top a few weeks ago. Unfortunately the experts think it's dying
pretty wild for reefs to grow for so long that moving tectonic plates pushed their home out of the water.
Fulfjället is my second home basically 🙂 I know Tjikko well. Thank you for including him in this video.

Simon would look impressive as a Spongebob Bikini Bottom character.
1:05 – Chapter 1 – Ming the clam
2:50 – Chapter 2 – The greenland shark
5:20 – Chapter 3 – Methuselah the bristlecone pine
8:15 – Chapter 4 – Neptune grass
9:50 – Chapter 5 – Old tjikko
11:20 – Chapter 6 – Chazy reef
I always look for the best in people and would like to think people would respect things like Methuselah, sadly I believe they would damage it simply for likes. It's quite sad really.
I heard about a life form found deep under the sea bed, that was alive during the reign of the dinosaurs. I smell a part two of this video, because you definately know that🤓
its honestly infuriating that they wont tell the location of the worlds oldest tree…..like were not going to do anything bad to it, i just wanna carve my name in it and chop a piece off for firewood. like whats the big deal???
RIP Ming D:
As some have mentioned, it was a missed opportunity not to discuss Pando, the aspen grove in Utah that genetics have shown is one creature (like the sea grass colony), and is considered one of the oldest living creatures on the planet. Unlike other clonal colonies, all of the individuals are connected into the same root system
Trigger warning needed for the shark hunting. My blood boiled at 3500 a year. Damned humans.
Welcome to the club Simon. Even scientists will NO longer age trees AND not reveal their locations.
For animals humans are actually quite long lived. To my knowledge no other terrestrial mammal can live up to 100 years.
Aren't we still in an Ice Age, regarding the opening monologue?
Michael is that you?
What a shill
Thank you for not revealing the location of the Methuselah, cheers fact boi
The original Bodhi Tree and it's seed tree in Sri Lanka are interesting. Fig/Bo Trees, the latter Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi (the great bodhi in Sanskrit I think) protected and built around in Anuradhapura with a Garden around it. Fascinating history to it. Planted in 288 BC.
No, the redwoods reach 64 meters tall in specific areas, but in other areas they're better protected and reach 110 meters
I was waiting for Pondo. Pondo is an aspen colony.
Funny how the climate have been warmer then today during 5 periods during those 9550 years.
7:04 Never heard anyone else even try to use “superannuated” in a sentence. But correctly? Wow! Quite the “flex” by the Wordfinder General himself, Sir Simon the Sibilor [“Whistler” in Latin].
ZOLTAN!!!! …sry I can’t help myself
A rare oasis of intelligent, informative and beautifully presented, well researched content by an excellent narrator in a desert of Utube trash. From my heart – thank you
how hard is it to get the sound right.
This oxidative stress talk has me thinking that maybe if I stop breathing I’ll live forever 🤯
Just remember, Simone, you're in the center of the thumbnail too u old man
