I can hardly believe how old this tree is. It boggles my mind. And there is one tree that is about 80,000 years old. That is hard to even imagine that anything can still be alive that started growing when humans were still cavemen.
This giant cypress lives in Abarkooh, Iran. The evergreen took root between 4,000 and 4,500 years ago, around the time that Stonehenge was being completed. It may be the oldest living thing in Asia, and is a national monument in Iran. The Zorastrian Sarv stands about 82 feet high and has a girth of 37.8 feet.
