The United States once had one of the world's oldest trees, until someone from the Forest Service cut it down to see how old it was. Yes, it was a government employee, a real "brainiac".

From the picture, it doesn’t look like 13 feet in diameter. Assuming the man is 6 feet tall, the tree looks to be about 6 feet in diameter.

Article about two very old trees that were discovered in California in the mid-19th century. Both were destroyed in order to be put on public exhibition. Mother of the Forest, a giant sequoia 2,500 years old; and the Discovery Tree - over 25 feet in diameter, 280 feet tall, and 1,244 years old when felled.
