What's Inside The Forbidden Pentagon?

[Vsauce]

There are more trees on Earth (3 trillion) than there are stars in the Milky Way (100 billion).

[coruscanta]

“Too impressive to ignore, too fleeting to enshrine.” What a well written line!

[MaceHead]

Hyperion also is a fucking rad name for a tree

[Infinite]

Fun fact that area also houses the other tallest trees. Appropriately called Icarus, Helios, and Daedalus. Also now it's illegal to get too close. Anyone who does faces up to 6 months in jail and a 5K fine.

In the known universe, wood is more scarce than diamond

"Hyperion is the tallest being in this earth... or is it?" *stretches*

[GatCore]

That’s the coolest discription of photosynthesis EVER!

[jenovapooh]

The actual largest Giant Sequoia is a secret. Given the damage to the ones that have been *reported* as the largest, I think that's for the best.

[Be-Him.]

Who else noticed that when the video panned over the random view of stars, the those exact stars were from the skills menu of Skyrim?

clearly vsauce is a silent monster that eats his nuclear reactions for breakfast and feeds us

[OGbqze]

The trees are finally getting some love they deserve. Plants are absolutely amazing.

[basicdays]

That transition to the iconic Jake Chudnow music really unlocked old vsauce feelings I didn't know I had.

[Cooler_By_The_Lake]

It's such a shame that we have to keep information like this a secret to protect nature from ourselves.

Vsauce definitely lurks in a cave in the roots of Hyperion and tells this to all visitors. One of his clones at least does

[anubisgod]

I love the unique profoundness in his random videos like this. This is a really unique way of thinking about it.

[genjitsu]

Your music that has been a part of your channel for so long makes me feel insignificant... that music is such a great part of watching your videos! It gives me nostalgia, goosebumps, anxiety... and I love it!!!

[sypialnia_studio]

Maaan, I miss long videos from Michael. These shorts are great, but this insanity shines better in the long format.

[SalfordFinest]

I love how he really switch's it up at the end to having u ponder ur existence and how a tree just ain't a tree

[clarahensley]

The book “the wild trees” is about the quest for finding the tallest tree, we read it in class sophomore year and it’s really good and it talks about the people that find Hyperion.

[SeraphsWitness]

I can't handle your energy for longer than a YouTube short
