Trees EATING benches and bikes!

I did not believe my eyes when I saw this website. There are actual trees growing around, through, and wilder yet absorbing man made objects like slow moving blobs from that 1950's cinema classic "The Blob". http://www.slightlywarped.com/crapfactory/curiosities/2009/eatingtrees.htm One tree has a child's rusting trike six to nine feet up in the air. The trike looks like modern art, only its nature's art, giving humans a good ego slap. A sign appears to be falling ever slowly into vertical quicksand. The tree oozing around it has its own ideas about trespassers. A park bench, fence, and a rusting Volkswagen Beetle automobile are slowly being consumed by trees that grew into the objects. The Beetle was abandoned over a sapling, and the sapling didn't take no for an answer, and came up through the car's bumper.

Wow. This is unbelievable. But looking at the pictures, it's real! I wonder how did it happen. But it's clearly teaches us about something.
