how tall was the tallest christmas tree

The tallest Christmas tree ever recorded was a Douglas Fir that stood at 260 feet (79 meters) tall. This tree was grown in the United States and was harvested in 1950. It took a team of over 100 people to transport and install the tree in New York City's Rockefeller Center. It was a truly breathtaking sight and served as a symbol of the holiday season for many years to come.
