#36 Jack and the Beanstalk in California
No, this photo has not been photoshopped. I know, that does immediately seem to be the case but please believe me, despite the strange coloring and the scales that seem to defy all logic, this image is completely real. And no, the house in the photo does not belong to some fairytale giant.
This is a house made of the tallest trees in the country – California Redwoods – and while it was not built for one, it definitely could have fit a giant. Did they get a giant in to build it though? How else could they have managed such a gargantuan construction task?
