It's impossible to know. This tree grows all over the Amazon and the Central American jungles, and also in Africa. Overall, it's distributed in an area equivalent to Western Europe. There are probably many undiscored giant kapoks in remote parts of those rainforests. Usually they reach between 40 and 70 meters (130 to 230 feet), depending on the area.
