10 INSANE Real-Life Places We Built In Minecraft

For those of you who don’t know we’re building the earth in minecraft one to one scale every single building yes including your house eventually though you could hop on the server and build it now if you want right now you can even build the chair and computer you’re

Playing on make an actual redstone computer that simulates the functions of your computer’s hardware so that you can watch yourself watching this video while you watch this video and just repeat this pattern of inception forever until you break the universe’s actual hard drives allowing us to either escape

Reality to the world above or cause a simulation to crash which would mean the end of existence anyways we started this project a year ago we first formed its discord and we made this channel it was called showcase and it functioned as the primary way for builders to show the

Amazing things they built in this project there being billions of buildings to choose from now a year into the project and this channel has a legendary history of some of the most mind-blowing things you’ve ever seen so i decided to review the entire 15-month history of the entire channel and i’ve

Got to tell you this killed me inside a little bit 7500 submissions will start to make your brain drain so i had to cut this process of review up into a couple of days but at the end of it i had saved a list of about 120 of my favorite

Submissions from the channel over the whole course of its year history i’ve combed that list to find what i personally think are the top 10 and have tiered them accordingly if you guys like this video and want to see me tier the entire list of 100 from worst to best

For a sequel to this put a like on this video or let me know in the comments with top 100 i do not claim to be an objective judge which is why i’m referring to this as my favorites as opposed to the top 10 objectively best build the earth creations known to

Mankind so if you agree with me on this list that’s weird that we have the exact same aesthetic taste and if you disagree let me know how much i suck as a judge in the comments this list is insane and the creations get more insane as we get

Through the list and you’ll never guess who’s number one at number 10 we have the taj mahal built by daniel tnc commissioned to be built by the begal emperor shah jahan in 1653 the estimated cost of building this was almost a billion us dollars in today’s money sean

Jahan was eventually deposed by his son and upon his death was buried in the taj mahal the building he commissioned stands almost 500 years later today proving without a doubt that the impact of our lives can last long after we’re gone number nine is st patrick’s cathedral in

New york city made by small asean or small asian whatever construction starting in 1858 and not completing until 1888. i mean the real life construction small asean did not build this in minecraft during the 1800s that would be preposterous he must have built it at least 100 years later than that

This cathedral was slowly constructed straight out of the gangs of new york era where when the finished cathedral stood larger than anything else in the city today the skyscrapers and every block around it dwarf the structure although dwarfed by these structures the cathedral without a doubt remains unmatched in architectural marvel and wonder

Eighth place goes to westminster abbey built by chief and small asean our oldest building yet of almost 800 years of age some parts almost 1 000 and unlike the taj mahal which successfully led japanese bombers in world war ii astray by covering it with scaffolding westminster was severely damaged during

World war ii its roof collapsing by bombs it was designated in abbey for centuries a cathedral for 15 years and then neither but it could also be designated like the taj mahal as a tomb with over 3 000 people buried here throughout the ages being described as britain’s valhalla okay number seven i

Love this one santa cruz de la slot made by scott sweno winston and daniel tnc this is a tiny island crowned with a of buildings look at it and if you thought that wasn’t enough it’s the second most densely populated island per square foot in the world at over 1

000 residents i don’t understand how but they do and to my surprise they didn’t inhabit this island they created it they piled coral debris stone and whatever else they could find to create the island which is believed to have been done in 1870 though no evidence exists

To confirm this i looked up google reviews and apparently it’s a pretty crazy place i hope they have a raucous bar it will be on the top of my visit list when i travel number six is the illa de la discordia located in the pacific de garcia in

Barcelona spain built by daniel tnc five out of the six buildings of the row were done by some of the most renowned catalan modernista architects in history whose names i couldn’t pronounce if my life depended on it and i don’t know how my life would depend on it but get

Creative this pic may be controversial but it still blows me away looking at this that a row of small buildings based on a structural format we would harshly call in america an outlet mall could be so beautiful and complex and translated into minecraft form with immaculate detail even from behind finish the city

Blocks around it i want to see it in proper form number five is another island but unlike anything you’ve ever seen mont saint-michel by earth the build on bte france it wasn’t accomplished by one builder but many because of its immense size and not by ordinary builders the builders listed to

The side here are members of earth the build a private build the earth team dedicated to pursuing the highest possible competence and skill levels in building the real world and minecraft one to one scale as great and as accurately as possible and it shows this thing looks like something out of a

Disney inspired breathtaking asset trip it’s been fought over by civilizations throughout the ages including roman times seizures during the middle ages all the way up to strategic utilization by the germans in world war ii the last time the island would ever witness combat it’s a world treasure and no

Wonder it’s the real life inspiration for minas tirith from lord of the rings except monsant mikhail is only populated by 30 people in stark contrast to both ministers and previous islands on this list we’re going around the world to hong kong for number four it’s hard to pass

Up on anything in hong kong with their massive fascinating residential complexes that seem to never end with their trippy repeating stacking patterns but what really blows me away is their central government complex building opened in 2011. it took three years to finish involved over 3 000 workers and

Cost 6.4 billion dollars some may argue where i’ve ranked this but look at this man for some reason i just can’t stop staring at it and i don’t know why the massive door pattern of a building the way the surrounding park and architecture curves and angles around

Its central shape it really appeals to me shout out to build the earth hong kong for completely nailing this one number three is this 7-eleven from seattle washington built by shy sorry no no i’m just kidding that that was a joke some of you may have been anticipating

This number three is notre dame de peli built by london london the builder not the place nearly a thousand years old surviving sieges french revolutions napoleon and the world wars it’s the most famous cathedral in the world and is the heart of french and european culture with over 12 million visitors a

Year to get a measure of this heraclius of caesarea called for the third crusade inside the cathedral while it was still being built the survival of the cathedral is a miracle following the french revolution the cathedral was possessed by the cult of reason and the cult of the supreme being during which

It sustained serious damage and desecration after the fall of napoleon it was in such a state of disrepair france considered demolishing it to save it the author victor hugo in the early 1800s wrote the novel the hunchback of notre dame which would eventually become the disney movie which repopularized

Support for it and saved the cathedral but the cathedral unfortunately caught fire in 2019 causing the roof to buckle and come crashing down and is currently closed for renovations for the next five years london says it will take over 10 years of education to the artisans and builders in charge because the building

Techniques were completely forgotten when we moved to the modern and post-modern building era so we built notre dame in all its pre-fire glory in order to never forget the beating heart of parisian culture that has withstood the test of time and a litany of disasters threatening its existence

All right here we go number two the burj khalifa built by crude newt the construction took five years and the exterior was completed in 2009 and when it was finished it broke nearly every world record loosely tied to the words building structure height highest and tallest the structure is so immense that

When the wind hits its complete length it bends like a reed in the wind causing the top floors to sway a total of 1.5 meters in each direction and as frightening as you can imagine that feeling if you were up there you’re supposedly safe because the entire structure was created and designed to

Accommodate the stress of bending over its entire length architects to give you an idea of how massive this thing is the air conditioning provides cooling equivalent to 26 million pounds of ice melting in one day it’s so high 64 chunk vertical render distance in cubic chunks minecraft is barely enough to keep the

Ground loaded while you’re at the top also in 2009 during completion these two guys snuck in pretending to be engineers got to the 160th floor and jumped off they jumped off the balcony with parachutes setting the world record for base jumping landed invaded the cops did

It again two days later and then got caught and rested they said that when you’re free falling it feels like a dream well seeing this building in minecraft felt like a dream to me the girth of this thing is unreal and its rank totally deserved number one was shown to me late last

Summer on a smaller server containing some of the most interesting serious and dedicated builders i’ve ever known romania is a country south of ukraine on the ground which once stood the macedonian empire and is home to some of the most immense i’ve ever seen in minecraft the romanian palace of

Parliament built by andy on and zoomi69 it’s the heaviest building in the world weighing 9 billion pounds 700 000 tons of steel and bronze 350 000 square meters of marble and almost 1 million square meters of wood this thing is a monstrosity it’s actually larger in volume than any of the individual

Pyramids of egypt it has over 1 000 rooms and the guinness book of world records ranks second after the pentagon under administrative buildings i might be biased here but i’m a sucker for quartz and size and opulence romania takes the cake this is without a doubt my favorite and the most intense and

Underrated thing i’ve ever seen in minecraft and that’s the top 10. so far we’ve had thousands of builders put their elbow grease and life essence into leaving a mark on the unlimited possibilities with this project and in the first year despite all of these mind-blowing sights we’ve only scratched the surface of

What’s possible if you’re thinking right now i could never build that you’re wrong you’re actually wrong these builders who built the top 10 i’ve seen some of their work from the very beginning of the project and it certainly left more to be desired or looked like beginner quality they’re not

More talented than you they don’t have some special genetic ability that you don’t they merely put the work into their craft pun intended if you’ve always wanted to build immense and beautiful creations like this we have a streamlined educational process and community here to help you every step of

The way but the most interesting buildings on the surface of the earth won’t remain untouched on our minecraft earth one to one scale forever now is your opportunity and now is our time to leave a mark on the most ambitious project in minecraft join the discord and the network to join our community

And make tomorrow a better yesterday today ah isn’t this the lego cafe nice though i’m struggling to find the statue of liberty the white house oh what an insane shot you know this was actually burnt down hobbiton nice nice very cool rebuilding hobbiton very big fan of narnia hogwarts

As well do you know that was a real place pretty cool look at this dude on his mac look at the little you throw yourself into a paradox he’s got a mac what a loser they made it twice they made new york twice new york too coming soon now it’s too much

Why is it like that this looks like uh what what willy wonka’s dad’s house looked like except that his dad was resented candy because his dad was a dentist oh yeah his dad was count dooku i was about to say he was scouting we’re getting the build up oh now this is cinematography

Oh oh my god oh now that was sick okay yeah can we give a shout out to london not the place london the person okay now it is hogwarts oh my god oh my lord it’s so big big thanks to chimo feelsbad fall.exe megan leckie and swegfish you guys are the best right
