Instead of pumping 'mud into the thing and achieving bland results,
why doesn't BP try to clog up the pipe by cramming it full of tree
roots and a few tampons?

It works at my house!

Tampons? lol

How about inserting a metal device, much like a tampon that can slowly
expand until the pipe is sealed. Then put a new connection on the end of the
pipe with an extension to the surface, as they intend to do with the top
cap. Then, the device could be opened up and oil would flow again.
