Two amateur California naturalists have found what they report is the world's tallest living thing.
It's a redwood in Redwood National Park on the Northern California coast.
The redwood tree, named Hyperion, stands 378.1 feet tall, 8 feet taller than the previous record holder, another coast redwood.
Officials aren't pinpointing the exact location of the trees, out of concern too many visitors could damage the delicate ecology of the areas.
