largest living organism - Pando - Aspen trees
Pretty cool video.
An aspen forest may all be one organism that clones by sending up new trees from roots that have spread. There's one named "Pando" that is currently the largest known. He mentions another one in the video. He also compares it to the "humongous fungus" in Oregon that is also huge, but has less mass because it's mushrooms.
