Nicknamed 'Methuselah' this Californian bristlecone pine tree was seeded in the year 2833 BC, which makes this tree 4,850 years old.

They didn't have internet porn back then so life & death wasn't as big of a deal as it is now.

What’s really crazy about the Empire State Building is it was built in barely over one year. Construction started March 17, 1930 and was completed April 11, 1931. And it opened less than a month later on May 1, 1931. Men got shite done back then.

I wonder what kind of mo ey the tree pruning crew made.

Didn't have OSHA or labor laws to really protect them
I'm sure quite few died or were seriously hurt building it. And I'm sure they worked insane hours without even expecting overtime pay. And I bet lots of juveniles helped as well.
shite gets built pretty quickly in Qatar still.
