There was a tree in Tracy, MN that looked like a giant had taken it and wringed all the sap out of it. It was left in it's mangled state after an F5 tornado pounded Tracy, resulting in a lot of devestation and 11 people dead. It stood as a monument for several years until it rotted away, and then was replaced by a steel sculpture that mimicked it's twisted form. It's kind of a city landmark
