(exciting music) - [Skip the Tutorial]
Instead of using rockets for your elytra, use slow
falling arrows instead. And did you know that stunted
armor used to be in the game? And these are 47 Minecraft item
facts that you maybe missed. And hey, as you can see from this number, we're coming up on 6 million subscribers. So if you haven't already,
check that sub button below. It's free, and it helps out a ton. (upbeat music) This fact will save you
a lot of experience. Because while we normally
rename our items one at a time. It turns out that if you put a stack of 64 name tags into anvil, then for the low, low cost
to one experience level, you can surely rename all of them. Which is my favorite way of
getting a bunch of name tags changed into Dinner Bones, so that I can have those
to keep my mobs around. If you have an efficiency five shovel, you're doing it wrong. Or I should say you're doing overkill, because really in efficiency four diamond, or netherite shovel is already fast enough to instantly mine every shovel-able block. So by going above and beyond
to try and get yourself an efficiency five, it's really pointless. So really, stick to efficiency four and save your extra levels
for silk touch or something. - [Block Facts] This mob will not die, because it's possible for mobs
to hold a totem of undying and still be resurrected upon death, even the sound effect plays. But the animation does not appear. Though if you give a
totem to a fox to hold, it'll at least have some
particles to show for it. - [Skip the Tutorial] If
you were to fish up an item with a fishing rod, it normally flies up to you, but it turns out that
if you step to the side, the item's still flying. In fact, it'll just
completely pass you by, which I guess makes sense. But it's still funny sight
to see from this angle. And at this point, would it
be fly fishing or fish flying? I have no clue. When they were first added in, shears were originally supposed
to be used to diffuse TNT. But, it didn't make it
into the final version which I think is a shame. It would've been fun to
carry around a pair of shears the next time that
you're doing TNT combat. But I guess a water bucket
could do the job just as well. And for only one extra iron ingot. - [Block Facts] This is the
deadliest elytra in Minecraft. And not because of the elytra itself, but rather the firework rockets we use. Since if you add firework
stars to these rockets, when crafting, you can
still use them for flights, but you'll take damage as well. Proving Icarus wasn't the only one to fly too close to the sun. So if you rightfully don't
wanna fly with these rockets there is another way to reach liftoff. - [Skip the Tutorial] Which sounds crazy, but if you hit yourself with a slow falling
potion arrow like this, and then launch up with a riptide trident, then that potion effect's gonna keep you at a 45 degree angle, long
enough to reach the stars. And then after 11 seconds when the arrow's potion effect wears off, you'll be able to launch
off with your elytra and have a pretty decent
take off while you're at it. Which is good because
otherwise I can't think of another reason to shoot
yourself with an arrow like this. If you compare the loading
animation for a crossbow, when you're in first person
in Bedrock and in Java. And notice that the
difference that the Bedrock plays more to the side, while the Java happens in the middle. If you use the slash item replace command to get a bone in the head slot, then once you wear a bone as a helmet, it's coded in as an Easter egg that it'll appear in the player's mouth. Makin' Steve look more like a
dog with a bone in its mouth. And really there's so many
Easter eggs that are coded in for the item replace command. It's worth trying out to see
which ones are your favorites. This is the most detailed
texture that Mojang's ever added to Minecraft, or that they kind of added. See in the infinite snapshot
for the April Fool's edition, there was a joke feature
called A Very Fine Item. And this item had a very fine
texture of 64 by 64 pixels. Which is a lot more than the 16 by 16 that we're used used to. Well, it's definitely not a
realistic Minecraft texture like we're used to. At least the text is readable. That's gotta be something - [Block Facts] You probably know you can power a jukebox with redstone. But how about using a jukebox
to power your redstone? Strange as it sounds, if
you place a comparator facing out of a jukebox, the block will out output signal strength the same as the ID of the disc. So disc 11, for example, would
give a redstone signal of 11. Which is about all the disc 11
is good for, let's be honest. - [Skip the Tutorial] All right, pop quiz, which one of these is coal
and which one is charcoal? Well, when it was first added in, it was nearly impossible
to tell the difference, considering that charcoal
had the same texture as coal. And it wasn't until few updates later that charcoal get its
own texture like this. But really, they both burn
for the same amount of time and they have the same use. So there wasn't much of a
drawback for getting them confused although I guess it
would've been confusing to try and stack both of
these together in a chest. - [Block Facts] Crafting a boat
out of obsidian sounds safe but it's actually stupid. Since, as we see in the
April Fool's snapshot, called the Love and Hugs update, crafting one of these
obsidian boats is only good for you sinking down to
the bottom of the ocean. Funny, sure, but definitely not
my first choice for sailing. Now if only these could float on lava. - [Skip the Tutorial] When
Microsoft first added in music discs, there were two songs that
were added to the game. Those being 13 and Cat. And for my money, one
of those is a lot more enjoyable to listen to than the other. But I think it's interesting that they added in
something as avant-garde as 13 this early. But I'm sure that all
the theorists are happy that they've been able to look into the lore for this long. - [Block Facts] Splash bottles
of water aren't useless. You're just using them wrong. But if you were to throw
one of these water bottles at yourself or a friend who's on fire, it'll actually extinguish them. Making this a cheap way is some
quick relief in the nether. And more importantly, it means that bottle you accidentally brewed
up wasn't a total waste. - [Skip the Tutorial] If you look closely, you'll notice that the chest that's inside of the chest boat isn't the same chest as the one that's inside of the minecart. But rather, the chest texture
that shows in the chest boat is 12 by 12 pixels. While the one in the
actual block is 14 by 14. But I guess that just goes to show that those two extra pixels
weren't all that necessary cause I didn't even notice. - [Block Facts] Here's how an axolotl lot can be an infinite water source, since in Bedrock Edition it's
possible to capture a fish or axolotl in an empty bucket. So you could use this to get
an infinite amount of water for your buckets. Just capture the fish mob, place it down, then recapture it, rinse,
repeat, and there you have it. - [Skip the Tutorial]
In Bedrock Edition only, if you were shot by a tipped arrow that you blocked with a shield, while that would deflect the direct damage that you get from the arrow, you would still get the potion
effect from the tipped arrow, which is a bit confusing. But if you think about it, we made these arrows
using lingering potions, maybe some of that lingering
effect still exists. And that being why if you blocked it you're still gonna get that potion effect. Sorry. - [Block Facts] You can grow
kelp on almost any solid block. And the reason this works
is based on real life since kelp actually absorbs its nutrients directly from the water. Instead of having roots
like a regular plant. - [Skip the Tutorial] Never
buy this from a villager, because even though the
woodland mansion explore map might sound like a useful item to get, it could be a ripoff. Since as a result of the world generation, there could be times that you buy this map from the cartographer. But the explore map doesn't actually show where the structure does exist, but rather where it would've existed if the generation didn't mess up. And really it's not
that useful to get a map that tells me where a woodland
mansion would've been, when I was really hoping to
find where one actually is. I think I'd rather just
use my eyes for this. Of all the tools in Minecraft, the pickaxe is the only one that doesn't
have a right click function. Since we can use a hoe to till soil, a shovel to create path land, we can use an axe on our copper blocks, and shears for well, shearing. The pickaxe is really the odd one out. And I don't think it's gonna
get a used feature anytime soon since frankly, I don't even
know what that would be. - [Block Facts] What was
the first item in Minecraft? While something like
the apple has a texture dating back to before the games release, it was actually the item
arrows that was first added to the Java Edition survival test. And you could fire these
by pressing the tab button, and for a bonus fact: skeletons could even fire
a special purple arrow. - [Skip the Tutorial] Let me introduce you to the wonderful world
of ice bomb parkour. Because in the Minecraft
Education Edition, it's possible to create this
secret item called an icebomb. Which is a projectile similar to an egg, but if you throw it out water, you're able to use it for parkour as well, which is a really fun feature. It's a shame that it's only
stuck to this education lab. Of all the items in Minecraft, there's only one that has
the word blocks in its name, that isn't an actual block. And of course that would be the music disc for the track, well, blocks. But that's also why it
sticks out like a sore thumb when you type in the word
block into the creative menu. Obviously one of these
is not like the others. Here's how to smelt
your logs into charcoal, without ever needing a furnace. Since if you were to go
into a crafting table and put those three
logs towards a campfire, then once you place down
that campfire and break it, you'll be left with anywhere from two to four pieces of charcoal. And sure it does take
one piece of charcoal to get the whole thing rolling, but it's hard to say this
isn't a whole lot faster. And once you've done this trick once, you'll have enough charcoal left over to keep doing it again and again. If you were to tweak the game, so that a panda eats the spyglass item, then since this obviously wasn't intended, when it takes a bite outta the spy glass, it creates the missing texture particles. Which would explain these
purple and black icons that you see here. And really, I don't blame Mojang for never coding in eating
particles for the spy glass. - [Block Facts] Here's
how to get a pet trident. If you have a loyalty enchanted
trident and you throw it, it'll follow you until it
goes into your inventory. But if you fill your
inventory after throwing it, it can't return. So it just hovers around
the player like this. You can even do this
with multiple tridents, creating quite the hectic sight. Look closely, you might be
able to spot the difference in these textures. And no, it's not just that one has a fish, and the other doesn't, but actually the bucket
texture in this sprite is one pixel lower than the original. And this is supposedly intentional, since the artist Japer claims it's due to the weight of the fish. - [Skip the Tutorial]
This exclusive item's only found in Education Edition. Since, when you use the
camera item or entity, you're able to get yourself
the exclusive photo item. Which is handy, since that game doesn't
have a screenshot function. And you can even put the
item inside of an item frame, which I think looks great. Definitely a lot better
than some custom map art. - [Block Facts] Don't feed
your parrot of cookie, which is a lesson even
Mojang had to learn, since when the parrot was
first added to the game, you could use cookies to tame them. However, cookies are actually
toxic to parrots in real life. So the code was changed to give them a fatal poison effect, instead, reflecting the real world fact. - [Skip the Tutorial] This
might look like a magic wand, but it's actually a sparkler. And the way that we get
this is by mixing together chloride and magnesium with a stick in the Education Edition. And actually using
different kinds of chloride could give you different colors, such as calcium chloride
for an orange one, or tungsten chloride for a green one. And unfortunately, while
these give off particles, they don't actually give off any light. Meaning these are really
more of a party trick than anything useful. Stop using bone meal, instead, you gotta use super fertilizer. Strange as it may seem, this is actually an item that
Mojang's added to Minecraft. And to even get this, we need to mix together
ammonia and phosphorous in a lab table. But from that point, this behaves a lot like
old bone meal used to, where we can grow our plants and trees right up to maturity just like that. But it's a lot harder to
farm than regular bone meal, so that's gotta be the drawback. This isn't a magic potion,
but you might think it was. Because when Bedrock
Edition first added in honey bottles to the game, they had an exclusive texture that was different from the Java Edition, but in the beta phases of the game it was changed to actually
match the same texture. Which is unfortunate, I actually like how this looks a lot. But I guess it makes sense
that the whole glass bottle wouldn't get changed to a yellow texture. So it was eventually changed for parody. - [Block Facts] It's possible
to enchant a recovery compass but only for a cruel joke. If you have a curse of vanishing book, you can attach it to your
recovery compass in an anvil. But obviously this
wouldn't do you much good, considering that the compass
would disappear on death. And then you couldn't use it to find the rest of your stuff anyway. But it might make for a good
prank to play on your friends. - [Skip the Tutorial] What's more deadly, a wither rose, or a magma block? Well, while a with a
rose might seem scarier, as you can see from this comparison, they actually both deal
the same amount of damage, at the same time. But if you hold down the sneak key, you can avoid taking any
damage from the magma block. Which I'd argue makes the wither rose at least a little bit more deadly. - [Block Facts] This isn't leather armor, but actually it's called studded armor. This unused armor set only
exists within the data for the items.png image
in the games' files. And these specific sprites
were ripped directly from Notch's old game
"Legend of the Chamber 2." But they were removed before
armor was ever implemented, making it just an Easter egg. - [Skip the Tutorial] This fishing rod could be a deadly weapon. Since back in old forms of PVP before the combat update in 1.9, it was possible to use
a fishing rod's bobber to stun your enemy, and then hit them with a couple
of combos with your sword. And that'd be why if you're
on a Legacy PVP server, you'd see these fishing rods going around. This is the worst piece of armor that's ever been added to Minecraft, but that's because it was a joke. See in the so-called Trendy Update for Minecraft's April Fools, there was this item that was
called the ankle monitor. And then if you put it on, it functioned much like
the curse of binding, you'd never be able to take it off. And it also applied the slowness effect making it a lot worse than those curse of binding
boots you found, anyway. Oh, not to mention a
bunch of annoying messages happening in your chat. - [Block Facts] You'd likely
heard the cat music disc but did you know there's a
secret dog music disc as well? If not, I don't blame you. It's hard to find. Exclusively on the Legacy Console Edition, there was an extra dog track that played at the end
of the cat music disc, meaning the cat music disc in that version was the longest disc in the game. - [Skip the Tutorial] If you're
playing in normal difficulty and you sit inactive within a minecart, then no matter how long you sit there, your hunger bar will never deplete. Which essentially gives you a
way to never starve to death. But it's pretty boring. So I'd rather just go get some food and go about it that way. - [Block Facts] If you put to
place a sign while on a ladder then you'll have frozen in time, and now you'll remain
midair on that ladder, without having to hold the sneak key. But worth mentioning that this
only works on single player, since on a multiplayer server, you can't pause the game this way. - [Skip the Tutorial] Here's
how to completely ruin a book and quill. Because if you were to take
the item inside of an anvil, and then give it a new name before you write anything inside, then from that point
you can't write anything inside the book. So if you wanna rename your manifesto, you should instead wait
until after you've written something inside of it, and then rename it that way. Then it'll still function normally. - [Block Facts] If Minecraft
clocks are too expensive, here's how to get one without crafting it. In Java Edition, after unlocking the
recipe, all you need to do is check the recipe book
to see the clock sprite. And there you go, works just the same. And this one didn't cost
four gold and some redstone. - [Skip the Tutorial]
This item never made it into Minecraft. But if you check back
within the games files for snapshot 19W34A, there was a texture for the crystallized honey item
that was added to the game. But when Snapshot 19W42A came out, that same texture got removed. And apparently this is because, according to one of the
Minecraft's gameplay developers it was never actually intended
to come out in the game. But it was still fun to get a couple of theories and ideas surrounding them before they were
eventually removed anyway. - [Block Facts] Be careful
wearing an elytra on a ladder, because it's actually
possible to start gliding while climbing a ladder. All you have to do is
press sneak and then jump. At that point, you can start
falling down the ladder, and if you look down too much you'll even fall fast enough
to take fatal fall damage. But really, if you have an elytra, of why are you even using a ladder anyway? - [Skip the Tutorial]
The piercing enchantment could be a lot more useful
than you think it is. Since if you get this on your weapon, then it actually gives you a way to save back on your arrows. Since, as you can notice here, if you shoot a projectile into a wall without the piercing enchantment, we're not able to pick it back up. Well, with the piercing
enchantment, then it actually works. Given us an economical
enchantment that I'm happy to see. This arrow was never supposed
to exist in Minecraft. So how did we get it? Well, by using the give command, you're able to get yourself some custom arrow variants like this one. And there you go, potion
variants of arrows that we were never supposed to have, can function just the same. Even if there's no potion
associated with it. And I think this would
open up a whole new slew of custom PVP maps that you
should try out in the future. And with that, folks, YouTube thinks that you
might like this video, so see if they're right
and have a good one. Alright?
