Infinite Bits – Busting 20 Minecraft Myths

Today we’re looking at a bunch of Minecraft myths like for example you can go through bedrock by using an ender pearl okay so I’m in the nether now and as you can see I have this ladder here that leads right to the very top where Bedrock is and then apparently all you

Need to do is be climbing on a ladder and then throw your ender pearl at Bedrock like this I know I’m in the I’m in the okay we’re through I don’t know what just happened but I thought I was stuck in it now only question is how do

I get back into the real world myth confirmed and we’re gonna be busting the biggest Minecraft myths to see if they’re true or false starting off with simple ones like a sheep can eat grass through a honey block and I’m just gonna see if these sheep are gonna be able to

Eat these grass blocks down here oh look at that this guy just ate the the grass myth confirmed and the myths are gonna keep getting more crazy as the video goes on like a way you can ride on the Wither or secret enemies hidden in the game’s files like this secret enemy

For example called an illusioner okay and apparently to see this guy you have to type this secret command you just gotta type summon Minecraft illusioner because that’s the name of this thing and then just click enter and would you look at that who is this guy

This the illusion or clearly y mask and dumb questions now what if I switch to survival oh now he’s mad okay I got my redstone torch okay yo look at this sweet like spawns multiple of himself that’s actually wild myth confirmed the frost Walker armor effect will still

Work when it’s on an armor stand okay so apparently if you just make like a sticky piston setup like this and as you can see I have the frostwalker effect on these diamond boots and I’m just gonna put it on this stand and apparently this armor effect should work even though I

I’m not even wearing it so click the Switch and yeah okay look at that it froze all this water yeah that’s what this effect does it like it freezes water when you walk on it I mean clearly myth confirmed you can make an Aether Aether Portal that leads to a Sky

Dimension now there’s a bunch of pictures and even videos that show people creating this secret Aether Portal and it does actually make sense there’s another portal in this game that leads to Minecraft’s version of hell so it would only be fitting that there was a light portal that leads to Heaven

Using glowstone and water this time however when people try to recreate these pretty convincing videos yeah uh the portal didn’t seem to work well turns out all these videos were made by using mods that create this sky world from the portal you can even download them online but in the base game

Unfortunately no such portal or area exists myth busted before we get to the more crazy weird and out there myths let’s finish busting the simple ones first like how cats don’t take any fall damage okay so as you can see I have this really tall platform here and I’m

Just gonna put a cat on top of it and uh for your sake buddy I hope this myth is true let’s see if you have any fall damage oh he’s falling always going he’s beating me oh he survived and this cat lives another day myth confirmed aghast

Can ride in a mine cart okay so apparently if you take a mine cart and just have it moving with uh powered rails like this and then if you spawn a mob in front of it like a dolphin okay it just picks it up and you can have a

Dolphin riding a minecart okay let’s see if we can get crazier how about a guardian a guardian dropped in a minecart okay and lastly I’m gonna try a ghast and oh my God we got a gas stuck in a minecart what the heck this looks oh this looks absolutely cursed like what

Is going on here all right this is a super awesome myth myth confirmed diamonds have a higher chance of spawning near lava this is a myth I even remember when playing Minecraft back in the day it’s a pretty simple statement and yeah I do find that when I’m by lava

I generally see a lot more diamonds around there but how can we prove this for sure if it’s true or not well if we go into the game’s code we can find that there is no correlation between lava and Diamond spawns directly but this is really just a coincidence because Lava

Lake spawns and Diamond spawns both occur near the same y coordinate so there’s a higher chance of finding them in the same place also Lava Lakes are in big open cave areas so you can see a lot more blocks at once when compared to strip mining for diamonds so this just

Increases the chance that one of these blocks will be Diamond but if we’re talking about if these two entities are directly related and any way then that is simply not the case myth busted a lot of these myths like this one were super hard to find the answers to and required

A ton of research as well so if you like this video it would mean a lot if you subscribe for more thanks if you run cave sound effect 14 through a spectrogram a hidden Creeper face will appear and apparently if you open up like an audio software editor like

Audacity here and then bring in that sound effect into the program you’ll see a normal waveform at first like you know this is what the actual sound effect sounds like in Minecraft when it’s played but apparently if you just switch this off of waveform into spectrogram oh

Yeah okay it kind of looks weird I gotta zoom out yeah now you can see it look it looks like a creeper see like these are the or this is one of the eyes this is the other and this is like the Creeper’s mouth myth confirmed you can remove the

Snow golems pumpkin head okay so I’m just gonna make a snow golem here and if you didn’t know all you got to do is place two snow blocks and then a Jack-o-Lantern on top of it and a snow golem will appear and normally they look like like this but apparently you can

Remove its head by shearing it so I’m just gonna do that and okay the set is removed and look he’s even got a little smiley face yeah I like his face here he looks so confused with his crooked smile and weird eye placement oh what llama get out of here myth confirmed random

Bases can spawn in your world without the player ever building them this myth started from a YouTube video uploaded in 2010 titled very strange house in Minecraft that I did not build and in the video this guy showed off a random base that he just stumbled upon in his

Single player world that he’d never seen or made before now at first people were claiming that this was just the hoax and he made this for attention until more and more people posted similar stories like this where they claim the same thing happened to them so what’s going

On with these weird buildings well it turns out that in a very early version of Minecraft save system if you delete a previous world of yours then there was a rare chance that chunks of your Old Worlds could be transferred in into a new world that you create so if you

Previously made a base on a certain chunk and that happened to be the one that transferred over then your new world would have that base on it pretty odd eh so while this can’t happen anymore at one point this was true so myth confirmed you can spawn secret

Steve and Alex mobs we all know Steve and Alex right the two main characters of Minecraft well apparently you can also spawn these guys not as playable characters but rather as non-player controlled mobs and if you look online you can find countless methods of spawning in these characters too however

The methods to do this were all over the place consisting of having to perform really random actions with no Rhyme or Reason to the methods and when trying it for yourself these didn’t seem to work and that’s because yeah there’s no Steve mob in the game however that wasn’t

Always the case because back in 2009 Steve was actually the very first mob that was put into Minecraft he didn’t do much though and just kind of pranced around but he was removed from the game shortly after so this is what probably started all these rumors of how to spawn

In a Steve mob people just wanted to see a super old feature in the game however there’s no way to spawn him in myth busted if a fox holds the totem of undying he’ll also get an extra life too okay so I’m just gonna spawn a fox here

And then where the hell oh no he’s going at the chickens okay so for this one I’m simply gonna throw down my totem of undying and then spawn a fox and as you can see he picks it up because you know that’s what foxes do with items but the real question is

If I hit this guy hit him enough to kill him oh look at that he died but he came back to life and he’s he’s freaking out but you see all those Sparks that was because the totem of undying look he’s got these weird effects on him now myth

Confirmed you can survive all fall damage by quitting your world and rejoining it okay so for this one it’s pretty simple I am up here on this super tall platform once again and for my sake this time I hope this one is true here goes nothing okay I’m just gonna wait click escape

And save and Quake to title okay apparently you just simply rejoin the world I’m joining Minecraft myths the terrain is loading join yup and I survived I made it I had all that fall whatever debris but I made it I survived the jump that’s awesome myth confirmed

The phrase the cake is a lie can appear on the title screen so on the title screen of this game there’s a bit of Splash text next to the Minecraft logo and it can read a bunch of different phrases however many people have claimed that they’ve seen the phrase the cake is

A lie in this spot as a reference to the quote from the game portal but no one has been able to see this text again and there’s no footage of ever showing this phrase here and me personally I totally remember seeing the same phrase on the

Title back when I played Minecraft a lot like 10 years ago so what happened to the splash text while this is most likely a case of the Mandela effect where your brain remembers certain details incorrectly but in this instance it might be due to there being an

Achievement in this game game that does reference this same phrase the achievement is simply called the lie that happens when you bake a cake myth busted mobs can’t walk over rails okay so I just made this little square here out of rails and I have a bunch of

Zombie spawn eggs so let’s just spawn a bunch of them they’re drawn towards me but they can’t actually get me because the rail that’s actually funny okay now what if we try a creeper yeah he still sees me he’s still drawn towards me and what happens if I take out one of the

Rails yeah okay he’ll walk out so that is 100 true I’m gonna die no I survived I survived the explosion but this myth is 100 True myth confirmed secret UFOs can be found in your world this all started back in 2010 from a video uploaded by SS

Lithuania and in the video while he was mining he saw a UFO zip across the screen for a few seconds this sparked a load of discussion whether this video was real or not but then after that there was another video that got a much more closer look at a UFO that showed it

Moving around and flying even this one was weird because we’ve never really seen blocks move around this way and finally there was a third UFO video that showed this weird Cube thing flying in the sky in the video the Creator even showed that he wasn’t using any mods in

It either so what’s the deal with all these sightings then Are UFOs in Minecraft well I think I have the answer for the first one the creator also had many other videos on his channel that showed never before seen enemies that only he has seen and they look pretty

Out of place meaning he’s good at editing these types of things in videos the second one was done using the black magic Zeppelin mod where you can make blocks fly around like a blimp and the final one I mean that’s just an end Crystal texture slapped on top of a bat

You yeah myth busted you can find a secret red dragon you know the Ender Dragon the final boss to this game well apparently he isn’t the only dragon in Minecraft as there’s also a red dragon mob in the main world and if you look online you can see many pictures and

Videos even that show this Dragon so it turns out the original creator of Minecraft notch did have plans to put a red dragon mob in the game as seen in this tweet however Notch eventually did leave Mojang and never finished the red dragon before he left but after the lead

Game designer Jeb who is still working at Mojang said he wanted to add the red dragon in too however as more time passed another developer named dinnerbone stated that they have no plans on adding him in now until a few months later when he then switched up

And said that he will be added just not right now and that’s the last we’ve heard about this topic so let’s just say no one knows what happened to the red dragon and basically a bunch of people ran with this idea to make a lot of click-baity titles and images for views

Saying that the red dragon has finally been added when in reality all these pictures and videos were made using mods as there is no red dragon in the game even to this day myth busted you can ride on the back of the Wither okay but before we try this on the weather let’s

Try it on some other animals first because apparently if you type this secret command here and you just gotta go slash ride at P Mount i e type equals okay then you just gotta set a name for it let’s go chicken sort equals near is we’re just gonna enter

What am I on I’m on a chicken it worked I still got my boots hunting but I’m on it chicken okay now let’s up the stakes a bit let’s spawn in a ward in here and see if it works with that okay I’m gonna do it I’m gonna do it on clicking enter

I’m on the warden what is this look this looks cursed what is even going on mush mush Warden do something oh he’s attacking the pigs I think I don’t know oh he is he’s killing all the pigs sorry Piggies but it’s not me it’s the warden okay but now here’s the moment you’ve

Been waiting for here’s the real test let’s see if I can ride on a Wither okay here goes nothing he spawned okay I quickly gotta do this okay Enter it worked did it work I’m on the weather what is this let’s spawn some pigs oh he’s jumping he’s killing the piggies

He’s like my Noble Steven whatever enemy I put down I’ll just kill him for me I’m on Creative now what if I switch to survival at least try to kill me I’m gonna switch okay I’m on Survival he’s he’s flying up he’s I think he’s trying

To shoot me but all his shots are missing somehow again I don’t have invincibility or anything I don’t think he can hit you when you’re on him so he’s just going up look how high this guy’s going I guess the AI wasn’t prepared for you to ride on top of the

Weather so it doesn’t know what to do how high will this okay I’m just gonna wait let’s see how high we can go on this well I’m at why like 1300 at this point and this has been a fun ride but I think I need to get off so I’m just

Gonna Dismount and fall all the way down look at this fall look this is actually crazy like oh shoot oh shoot uh switch to creative oh oh that was the creative mode clutch you saw that misconfirmed there’s a secret character called Herobrine that can appear in your

Minecraft world oh yes I had to end on this one of the biggest video game myths out there herobrine this all started back in 2010 from a post on poor Chan by an anonymous user he claimed that he was on his own single player world when he

Saw another player looking at him in the distance but then the player quickly ran off into the fog and he couldn’t find him anymore he only posted this one picture of the character that he saw where you can see a vague outline of a Steve model but he had bright white

Eyeballs instead then he noticed weird man-made things in his world like seeing 2×2 tunnels small pyramids and forests of trees with the leaves all cut off he also tried to make posts about this to a Minecraft forum but they were all quickly deleted and then he was messaged

By a user called Herobrine that told them to stop posting more and more people began to post about how they saw Herobrine too there was a streamer called Copeland that showed Herobrine hiding in his house before he freaked out and quickly ran away now these are all some pretty strange stories that

People have reported however all of them are actually fake and there is no Herobrine mob in the game one streamer was caught talking to his wife about how he faked his Herobrine encounter and another one that actually showed the footage of Herobrine later admitted that he simply retextured Herobrine on a

Painting to fake his encounter too while this is more obvious now back in the day way less was known about Minecraft and this was a lot more believable and I don’t know when you’re in a single player world by yourself it can kind of be unsettling in this game like

Something is in your world with you this concept is probably how the initial idea was made up but yeah I mean I guess you can’t believe everything you read on the internet because all of this Herobrine stuff is clearly myth busted good
