Insane Minecraft World Record You Won’t Believe!

Minecraft was just beaten in 7 minutes and 1 second by drip 120 beating no fear 7 Minute 24 second world record that was set less than a month ago we haven’t seen World Records set this close to each other in almost 3 years and for one of the most popular categories in any

Game in speedrunning history the sudden explosion of runs threatening and even beating the world record is a huge development this run is very well played incredibly lucky and uses illegal mod rejected from the official leaderboard well we’ll get into the controversy surrounding the Run later in the video the most important thing is

That this run is freakishly fast almost Breaking the 7-minute Barrier something we used to not be sure was going to ever happen so prepare yourself to witness one of the most shocking and incredible runs in speedrunning history as we get into the story of drip 120’s 701

The Man Behind The Run drip 120 doesn’t look like your average Minecraft world record holder don’t get me wrong he’s an extremely skilled and accomplished Runner he’s the former Duos world record holder for random seed glitch list a former top 25 player in Minecraft speedrunning ranked and he’s got

Multiple sub seven minute end enters but his personal best before the world record was 9 minutes and 55 seconds a far cry from the world record he beat and more more importantly he wasn’t really going for the record when he pulled this run off when Minecraft speedrunners play random seeds they can

Be more or less exclusive and reset their runs with higher or lower standards based on how good of a time they want to get if they only want to get a sub 15 resetting for a decent seed will save countless hours over resetting for an amazing seed while a runner who’s

Going for the world record can save a lot of time by not playing those decent seeds according to drip 120 Not only was he not resetting for the world record he didn’t even think he really had a chance to get it for comparison the average Minecraft world record contender in 2024

Has an 802 personal best 17 different sub 10s five sub seven end entries and gets through more vape pods in a day than nether exits relatively speaking drip 120 is an underdog but the beauty of Minecraft random seeg speedrunning that really doesn’t exist in any Speed game that’s nearly as optimized as

Minecraft is is that it’s chaotic random and Anyone who puts in the time and resources can have a shot at greatness and on January 3rd 2024 drip got his now before we get into the run I would normally explain here what the current meta of top level runs looks like for

Anyone who’s unfamiliar or hasn’t watched Minecraft speedr running in a while but the meta literally has not changed at all since the last World Record 3 weeks ago so I’m going to insert the segment from that video here if you’re already caught up on the

Overall look of the runs you can skip to this time the basic meta of a modern 1.16 run looks like this the runner spawns in acquires wood tools and preferably food and finds a nether entry via an underwater magma Ravine a lava pool or a ruined portal in the nether

They’ll need a Bastion where they can collect copious amounts of gold and trade it with copious amounts of Pigmen to acquire copious amounts of Ender Pearls obsidian and materials to make explosives then they’ll need a nether fortress where they’ll kill blazes to acquire blaze rods and craft their Ender

Pear and blaze rods into Eyes of Ender they re-enter the Overworld and throw an Eye of Ender which will indicate the location of the stronghold they then travel back through the nether where one block is equivalent to eight in the Overworld build a new nether portal and

Travel back to the Overworld where if everything goes right they’ll be right inside the stronghold they find the end portal room fill the end portal With Their Eyes of Ender then go to the end and use their explosives to kill the dragon using either a setup called the

One cycle or another called the zero cycle we’ll get into those later drip spawns next to a beach biome which is how most playable world record seeds start nowadays the previous world record by no fear also started on a beach next to a forest and before that xylon nox’s

World record began with a similar spawn the reason for this is simple buried treasure like most other aspects of Minecraft speedrunners have finding buried treasure down to a science first they load seeds in several instances of Minecraft using the wall and are able to see the worlds generate as they load

Thanks to a Le mod called World preview once they see a seed they like a beach biome they can select it and use the F3 screen to determine if there’s any buried treasure nearby before they even dig a single block of sand since a chest

Is a block entity it will show up on the F3 screen pie chart if it’s within the player’s field of view and by narrowing the game window and reducing their render distance they can determine the exact 16x 16 block area or chunk the chest is in though there’s only roughly

A one in a 100 chance for a buried treasure to generate in a given Beach biome with world record times closing in on 7 minutes it’s worth the high number of resets because top level Runners simply don’t have time to waste in the Oval World drips pie chart indicates

That there’s a chest here and since buried treasure always generates in the four four cordinates of the chunk it’s in drip knows exactly where to dig the treasure generating underwater means that it takes him five times as long to mine the blocks around it as it would on

Land which is a small time loss but since the gravel block drops Flint which has just a 10% chance of happening and is needed to light the nether portal this run remains on great pace so far drip gets fantastic loot from the chest with 11 iron five gold and four diamonds

Being enough for some high-grade tools some cooked fish for food and some TNT saving him a good chunk of time when collecting wood in no fear’s previous world record the chest didn’t contain any TNT there’s about a 37% chance of this happening and so he had to not only

Collect wood by hand but also Shear leaves to use his building blocks giving drip valuable seconds of Advantage he saves the other team TNT block to use in the nether fortress which we’ll get to later drip crafts a diamond shuffel and pick an iron axe a bucket a boat and

Doors the crafting isn’t perfect there’s probably about a second loss just due to items not being dragged and clicked quite as precisely as they could be but he’s still on great pace and because he already has all his Building Blocks he’s ready to start looking for a place to

Build the portal 45 seconds into the run about 10 seconds faster than no fear the beach is next to a deep ocean where magma Ravines are common one of these Ravines is visible from Shore so dri begins boating towards it he’ll look for magma blocks which can have lava under

Them and use his bucket and doors to help him build the portal he has to settle for a 1 by two magma piece with lava only one block deep below the surface which is a slower and more difficult portal to build than Runners often get but dri’s portal building is

Super fast and pretty much Flawless and he’s into The Nether at about a minute and 18 seconds he’s now on a pace 21 seconds faster than no fears nether entry but 10 seconds slower than xylen nox’s Pace in his former world record which just shows how much variety these

Runs can have even just a minute in of course there’s a lot of steps between here and killing the dragon and a lot that can go right or wrong it’ll all come down to what the game gives drip and what he’s able to do with it entering the nether drip spawns right

Next to a treasure Bastion and with some fast speed bridging he’s across a lava lake and into the Bastion just a few seconds later treasure bastions are made up of two parts there’s the lower section to the left as he enters and the upper section on the opposite side of

The lava pools of the two sections the upper one is optimal for piglin trading because its gold distribution and layout are much more convenient than in the lower section which is much larger and ranged around a giant pit of lava instead of a single easily navigable route drip enters the upper section and

Mines Gold Blocks as he goes along a pre-planned route aggravating piglins along the way and funneling them into a single area to trade with them the gold blocks he finds in the walls all spawn in set points but each block has a 70% chance of generating and drip gets just

Six out of 10 of these Gold Blocks he digs down for an extra block that Runners won’t always go for to compensate by the time he’s done collecting and distributing the gold drips piglins are almost done trading through it which means he won’t get to overlap trading time with looting the

Chests in the lower room the trade returns are good though as he gets all the pearls he needs plus over a full stack of string which he can use to make wool to craft into beds even better he gets 11 of the 20 obsidian he wants from

Trades alone which is really lucky all that’s left to do is head down to the chest rooms and hope for nine more obsidian but on the way down he paused Es as he spots something just as important the nether fortress from the chests he gets exactly what he’s looking

For and he’s ready to Pearl towards the nether fortress he’s out of the Bastion at 3 minutes and 9 seconds which is almost a minute faster than no Fierce Pace from his record although it’s actually slightly slower than zylon ox’s pay was at this point in his run drip

Pearls halfway to The Fortress preemptively drinks a potion of fire resistance then throws another Pearl towards the side of the Fortress intending to block clutch as the Pearl hits the wall he slightly M times the Sprint and jump of his Pearl throw though and lands lower than he intended

To ending up in the lava this loses several seconds although it’s not as bad as it would have been if he didn’t have extra pearls to get back up the Fortress with it’s also not as bad as if drip hadn’t drunk his fire resistance potion beforehand which is just one example of

The many tiny precautions speedrunners take paying off he’s into the Fortress at 332 where he’s immediately greeted by four blazes with each Blaze having a 50% chance of dropping a rod going over for his first three is less than optimal although the fourth Blaze does give him

His first Rod he runs to a nearby spawner killing another stray Blaze on the way and getting a rod and then getting a third rod from The Blaze that’s already waiting at the spawner now he can use the second piece of TNT from earlier to blow up the area around

The blaze spawner increasing the odds that more blazes will appear each time the spawner activates in the process two more blazes spawn each of them dropping a rod bringing drip from 0 for three to a much nicer 5 for8 ideally he still wants one more Blaze Rod but but with no

Blazes to fight for the moment he can return to the Overworld and use the Eyes of Ender he can already craft to locate the stronghold he uses a boat to quickly position himself on a precise part of the block throws an Eye of Ender then minimizes his field of view and

Sensitivity so he can perfectly align the right edge of his Crosshair with the left edge of the eyes pupil by copying his coordinates in the exact angle he’s facing from this position he can use a calculator created by the speedrunner ninjab brain to get potential locations

Of the stronghold and the odds that they are there a lot of the time one eye throw isn’t enough to know for sure where the stronghold is in which case Runners throw a second eye losing some time and risking the 20% chance that the eye breaks this time though the

Calculator tells him with 100% certainty where his stronghold is and even better it’s only 800 blocks away which in the nether is only 100 blocks if he gets optimal terrain when traveling those 100 blocks he could be into the stronghold historically quickly without missing a beat drip stays locked in and and gets

Back into the nether at 453 he quickly kills the one Blaze waiting for him which drops a sixth consecutive Rod then immediately pearls in the direction he needs to travel he lands on a nice flat land mass and needs just a little bit of speed bridging to get to the precise

Coordinates where he builds his final portal he lights it and all of a sudden he’s into the stronghold at 5 minutes and 22 seconds not only has he pulled about 20 seconds ahead of xylon ox’s pace not only is he now 50 seconds ahead of no fear’s world record but drip is

Now in the stronghold faster than anyone has ever been the chat that was practically empty at the beginning of the run is now bursting with anxious viewers who are well aware that they’re watching the fastest Pace in Minecraft speedrunning history that’s a lot of pressure but there’s no time for drip to

Process any of that this may be the fastest Pace ever but he’s still got just 2 minutes left to find the end portal enter the end kill the dragon and get into the exit portal to beat the game for drip 120 it’s now or never into

The stronghold he first pulls up the pie chart and looks for the portal room the same way he found the buried treasure earlier since the silverfish Spawner in the portal room is also a block entity he sees that it’s in this general direction and despite some scuffs generation he finds the portal room

Pretty much immediately now he just has to fill the end portal but he makes a deceptively important Omission here as well some Runners would stop here to craft their explosives and set up their hot bar before entering the end in order to prepare for the Z Zer cycle one of

Two ways speedrunners can kill the dragon nowadays the zero cycle involves immediately pearling onto the Obsidian Tower that the dragon is circling right when the runner enters the end building up off of the tower to a predetermined spot then blowing up explosives to kill the dragon as it repeatedly flies by

That spot depending on end generation and dragon positioning the zero cycle can have varying levels of difficulty or just not be possible at all but if it is Runners jump at the chance since it’s both faster than a one cycle at its fastest and much more consistently fast

Than a one cycle but you can only do a zero cycle if you’re fully prepared before you enter the end drip In the Heat of the Moment and trying not to break his Focus heads straight into the end portal and fills it up the downside

He’ll have to rely on the one cycle to kill the dragon the upside he just entered the end at 5 minutes and 44 seconds the fastest anyone has ever done it he’s 30 seconds ahead of zylenox who had the pre fastest end enter in a completed run he’s 45 seconds ahead of

No fear who did zero cycle in his record and thus had a faster end split than drip can expect to have as the chat is making clear this pace is ludicrously fast but now the only thing that matters is how fast the dragon perches as drip

Runs to the middle of the island to prepare he knows his shot at history is down to chance at this point but remember the beauty of Minecraft RSG is that Anyone who puts in the time and resources can have a shot and drip certainly done that much with millions

Of resets behind him countless hours playing runs and practicing form and learning techniques drip has been preparing for this moment for a very long time and when after 2011 seconds of waiting the dragon blesses drip with a very fast perch he and everyone watching know that all that time all that effort

And all the great runs in Minecraft history that came before this one they’ve all come down to This 7 minutes and 1 second a new record by 23 seconds and very nearly shattering the 7-minute barrier on only the fifth run to ever surpass the 8 Minute Mark all world records are special because they’re World Records but this one is truly one that we will

Never forget and if not because of the Run itself there’s also plenty of controversy surrounding the circumstances of the run and particularly the fact that the speedrun.com team rejected it from the official leaderboard you see in Minecraft speedrunning mods are obviously not not allowed in official runs unless the speedrun.com moderating

Team makes an explicit exception there are plenty of these exceptions most of which are mods that simply improve the performance of the game making speedr running more accessible to those with less powerful computers another exception is World preview which we saw drip using at the beginning of the run

The problem with drips run however is that he was also using a mod that hadn’t been explicitly Allowed by the team that might sound suspicious on the surface but the mod was in fact totally harmless it was a mod that works with World preview to prevent occasional crashes

That the mod can cause on Lower performance computers it doesn’t affect anything else in the game so when the mod team stood by their rules and rejected drips run from the official leaderboard people were understandably upset this run obviously wasn’t cheated who who cares if he was using a mod to

Stop his game from crashing and while the mods said as much in their statement saying they rejected the run because several otherw world record runs have been unverifiable for the same reason and to make it fair for all Runners we treat every run including world records

With the same rule set it still seemed ridiculous to many that such an incredible and important run should be left off the leaderboard despite being legitimate a lot of discourse ensued from this and there are ongoing conversations within the mod team about potentially revising this decision and

Allowing the run to be on the official leaderboard what do you think the best solution is here let me know down in the comments but regardless the best thing to take away from this run is that drip 120 played an incredible Unforgettable world record as speedrunners are

Continuing to push Minecraft to its very limits huge shout out to drip both for the record and helping out with the creation of this video links to his channel and the other Runners shown in this video are in the description finally thanks so much to you for making
