One of the New Seven Wonders of the Natural World, the Amazon Rainforest's canopy is so thick, it takes about how long on average for a raindrop to reach the forest floor?

There are an estimated 390 billion trees in the Amazon Rainforest covering an area of 2.12 million square miles. This makes for a super thick canopy – one that stands so thick that the floor of the rainforest is in complete darkness. It also takes raindrops an average of ten minutes to reach the forest floor!
