==Fan comment==
"In the book Brian's Winter by Gary Paulsen the main character believes he is hearing gunshots, and walks toward them, and finds out that sound is made by exploding trees." <-- This should be noted as a spoiler.
== This article is
It opens with "Exploding trees are a fictional phenomena was the subject of a 2005 April Fools' Day hoax covered by National Public Radio"

== Subjective idealism ==
The sentence "Of course, maple trees have survived for millions of years on Earth, without human beings tapping them for maple syrup and without exploding nonetheless" would have provided [[George Berkeley]] with some sport! <span style="border-left: 1px solid #c30;">[[User:Pablomismo| pablo]]</span><sub style="background-color: #ffc; color: #c30;">[[User talk:Pablomismo|hablo]].</sub> 08:50, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
== Pressure ==
The article states:
The root pressure in a maple tree is approximately 0.1MPa, a tenth of one standard atmosphere
This is inconsistent.
Standard atmospheric pressure is about 0.1MPa, so the should either be "approximately 0.01MPa, a tenth ..."
or "approximately 0.1MPa, one standard atmosphere". <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Ligneus|Ligneus]] ([[User talk:Ligneus|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Ligneus|contribs]]) 13:15, 9 October 2010 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

I don't know what I am doing on here but I heard on Internet Today that a recent heat wave caused a tree to explode.
Might want to put it on here.

== Contradiction with Eucalyptus article ==
This article claims that there is no evidence of trees exploding due to fire. However, the [[Eucalyptus#Adaptation_to_fire|Eucalyptus]] article claims that ignited Eucalyptus trees have been known to explode. Only one of these statements can be correct, and one of the articles should be corrected to match the other.
