Abnormal durian tree

The following pictures of an abnormal durian tree would dispel the myth of 'durian runtuh' expression in Malay which means 'harvest from durians falling down' . Our Malaysian 'king of fruits' known locally as 'durians' is supposed to drop from a tall tree when ripe.

Not sure if this particular tree had been genetically altered to bear fruits in such unusual way - at the tree trunk rather than the branches.
