Hello there, human. You are not a tree. This, however, this is a tree. This is the world's OLDEST tree:
2
This tree is 9,500 years old. That's nine-thousand-five-hundred-years-old.
That is garunteed older than pretty much anything else you've ever encountered, other than things like the ocean. And stars.
3
This tree is a Norwegian Spruce, fondly nicknamed "Old Tjikko." We're not sure how you pronounce that - but we're betting it rings with the importance of a being who has lived for a millennium.
4
This tree was born in the Neolithic era. This tree remembers every single US President, every British Monarch, and the time before the Roman Empire was even a thing.
5
The tree was discovered in 2004, by Professor Leif Kullman, who carbon dated the tree twelve times to prove his find.

Happy 2016, Old Tjekko. May you live for another thousand years!
