Trees do tree things.

I've seen trees like this, on public land where they definitely weren't curated. They're usually the younger looking pines, 'bout 20ish feet I'd guess. They are going to get bigger, but the biggest they seem to get is about 16" in diameter from what I can tell, and I'd guess oh, 80ft or so. The tree's girth is not a reliable indicator here is what I'm saying, though idk whether this tree specifically was shaped or not, as both the tree's girth and the growing through a hole in a helmet are also totally possible in nature.

Here is the source of this image and several similar images. According to here:
> Alexander Ostapenko, a Soviet military history enthusiast and World War II re-enactor from Kolomna, Russia, shared some of the images on his VKontakte social media account.
> In a message to MailOnline Thursday night, Mr Ostapenko revealed that most of the photos have been taken in the area of the Neva Bridgehead, known as Nevsky Pyatachok, which was the site of one of the most crucial campaigns during the devastating Siege of Leningrad that lasted from September 1941 to May 1943.
> The Red Army lost about 260,000 servicemen while fighting to reopen land communications with the starving, decimated city, which had been cut off from the rest of the country by invading German forces.
> Some of the so-called exhibits in this outdoor military museum include a Maxim gun circa 1891; a Mannlicher Carcano rifle circa 1891, and a 75milimeter shell from a light field gun.
