What ever happened to that slightly retarded hippy chick who lived 180 feet up in a redwood tree for 2 years?
she lived in a tree and never came down for two years. Her friends put food in a bucket for her, and she used the same bucket to poop and pee in, and hoisted it down, which her friends dutifully disposed of for her.
Weird, huh?
Did she end up swimming with some killer whales or something and got eaten up?

Her name is Julia Butterfly HIll, she’s not the only tree-sitter, and she wrote a book. You might read it so you have a better idea what you’re talking about.
No, it wasn’t weird.

She continues to be an environmental activist and is now a spokesperson for the cause. Her two year stint living with Luna, the 1500 year old redwood, heightened awareness to the plight of old growth forests. I also don’t consider it weird, but find her dedication inspiring.
