60 years later, a tree has successfully eaten this bike

Fact: At no point in history has a little boy been excited about riding a girl's bike — even if that bike was free. Eight-year-old Don Puz was given a girl's bike in 1954, after the death of his father prompted a wave of generosity from their community on Washington state's Vashon Island. How to get out of actually riding the thing? Don ditched the bike and told his mother he'd lost it.

The accommodating tree was able to grow around the bike, and even left its front tire free enough to spin. [Source]
