Minecraft’s Most DANGEROUS Glitch – Hidden For 8 Years…

In early 2020 i joined hypixel to record some footage for this video i didn’t have as good of a pc then and i had way too many programs open so my game was lagging after an unusually long connection time i recorded a clip and left to go into single player then the

Strangest thing happened while i was in single player i could see and talk in high pixel chat the tab menu was high pixels the sky was flickering like crazy and there seemed to be some invisible blocks preventing me from moving around my game started lagging bad and then swiftly crashed upon relaunching the

Game everything was normal and no matter what i tried this strange and unknown experience never happened again little did i know at the time that i was one of the few people to have seemingly experienced one of the most obscure and rare minecraft bugs in existence a bug

Which has existed for almost 8 years now since 2014 and what i and many others had unknowingly experienced could be extremely powerful allowing players to x-ray and no clip through the world beyond two servers at once potentially teleport millions of blocks and then something i never thought was possible

Transfer items from one server to another now this could be utterly game breaking it all started a few weeks ago i had long since forgotten about my one-of-a-kind minecraft event at this point but then one of the players on my server og-network.net brought up this extremely weird experience he’d had this

Is the footage he sent which isn’t the best quality but as you can see the sky is constantly flickering between day and night it was like he was on two minecraft worlds with two different times of day at the same time after sharing this strange encounter an active

Player of the server named chromatic prism mentioned that he too experienced something similar getting impatient upon trying to join hypixel once and miss clicking and joining my server instead upon doing so it was like he had connected to two servers at once and the game clearly didn’t like it i of course

Upon hearing about this was reminded of what happened to me two years ago and got extremely curious asking prism to send me a video so i could try to replicate it for myself what he told me he did is join a server to which the game would freeze and then while it was

Frozen he would spam click another server and voila he had figured out how to replicate it it seemed too good to be true though so i booted up minecraft followed the method and nothing you see prism had told me that it seemed to only work in a specific minecraft client

Known as laby mod as for some reason whenever you would connect to a server it would freeze like so this strange lag or freezing seemed to be the key to replicating this bug but while that initial freeze happened to prism on my side the client never froze unfortunately however fortunately for me

We are on the home stretch to 400k subs now and they’re so close so consider subbing and get this little badge i can see next to your name no pressure of course anyways no matter what i did i could not replicate this lag so i started experimenting first i tried to

Lag my game by limiting minecraft’s ram usage to one gigabyte but that didn’t help at all i then tried updating a bunch of games on steam to lag my internet but still no luck and after about 30 minutes of random rabbit holes in trial and error i discovered that

When i was connected to a vpn my client now had that same lag we saw in prism’s video then i connected to my server and when the game froze i quickly spammed hypixel what happened next was extremely weird what you’re watching now is footage of the first time i successfully

Recreated this obscure glitch upon joining hypixel i first noticed my chat was spammed with weird unable to locate signed messages and guess what the coordinates of those signs are the exact coordinates of the survival game science on my server og network but i’m not on my server i’m on high pixel right well

That’s when i noticed that the sky was changing color it was like it was switching between the world on my server and high pixels world looking at the day counter in the f3 menu confirm this i tried to move around to observe my environment only to be blocked by what

Looked like invisible blocks right now i’m trying to walk forward and it just doesn’t work the weirdest thing however was that while i was on high pixel and i could see the chat open the guise and move around i didn’t really exist i was like a ghost players could see me in the

Lobby but while i was moving around to other players i looked entirely still my chat messages wouldn’t send either i could also move items around in my inventory something you aren’t normally able to do on high pixel it was like i was there but i wasn’t

I then reversed the bug by joining high pixel first and then my server og-network.net and things only kept getting weirder now online my server in the hub things suddenly disappeared i was connected to my server and i confirmed this by logging in on another account to which i could see myself in

The hub yet i could still see and talk in the higher pixel chat i could join parties send friend requests and more but this time my inventory was different it was the hop bar which is present on my server not high pixels so i tried to

Join my server’s smp to see what would happen and it worked upon joining my smp i could now talk in my service chat and still see the hypixel servers chat but they could no longer see mine i was still online on higher pixel as well and even received party invites and messages

Which i could no longer join or respond to i also had an entire chunk of x-ray and keep in mind my server has x-ray protection as well and then boom all of a sudden i was teleported back to hypixel into their afk room and upon leaving it i was once again on high

Pixel like everything was normal except for the flickering sky day counter constantly changing the fact that i was still logged into my smp and my service chat still being visible oh and ignore the fact that i could slash tp myself around on my smp and it would also

Quickly teleport me on a high pixel before their anti-cheat seemed to move me back Now i was intrigued what the hell had just happened i had quite literally been on two servers at once seemingly switching between both upon joining the s p i could see and talk with players of both servers move in both worlds and even potentially manipulate my position

What else was possible could i do this on newer versions of the game i knew i had to do more research and find more data but there was so little information online luckily in my research i stumbled across an old bug report from december 2014 known as mc7498

The bug report which at this point had been unresolved for almost eight years now had some very interesting information players were basically reporting similar variations and experiences as me as i scrolled through the many comments from the past 8 years i noticed one which mentioned something a player had commented that they were

Able to transfer their items and inventory from one server to another immediately after reading this i realized the power this bug could have imagine being able to bring items from your own private server when you have op and creative mode onto a server like 2b2t if possible this bug could be game

Breaking but there was one problem so far i had only been able to replicate this bug in 1.8.9 on a specific client being unsuccessful in using the same method in more modern versions i spent a few hours trying out various methods plays listed in this bug report such as direct connecting then quickly

Cancelling and joining another server but to no avail prism also had limited success it seemed that this bug had some unknown quirks related to internet connection strength and location which made it only work for some individuals and not others for almost eight years it seemingly had not been able to be

Properly reproduced but then while trying out various methods i stumbled upon a link to an exumavoid video from early 2018. in this video he demonstrates something very similar to the bug reported here so currently in this world i am standing around zero zero and we’re going to teleport to

Another coordinate without moving around or doing anything we’re gonna save and quit this world and we’re gonna go on to the hermitcraft server although we’re not because we’re gonna quickly click cancel twice go back into the world and what should happen when we come in here is it’s going to load the hermitcraft

World so we saw the original world then we saw this world right here it is loading the other world physically and it is displaying this world the hermitcraft world to us if i press f3 uh you know 477 and then minus 967. when we save and

Quit and go back into this world guess where we are going to be uh we are going to be at those coordinates in this world right here as you can see so exuma had seemingly teleported in a single player world by going to specific coordinates on hermitcraft and sure enough i was

Able to replicate this exact bug in 1.12.2 vanilla when using a vpn and the server this meant i was effectively able to teleport myself to the world border in mere seconds exuma mentioned in this video that this bug would only work on single player but this got me thinking

Could i do this on multiplayer servers as well so i booted up a private 1.12.2 server and got testing using the same method xumavoid showcased i first connected to my private server but then quickly cancelled that and after connected to my smp upon joining the smp things would be normal until bang after

A few seconds i had seemingly been connected to my private server as well and yes both servers displayed me as being online once again in both server consoles i had successfully replicated the bug in 1.12.2 vanilla now i had to know could i use the same teleportation

Exploit that exuma had used in single player on a multiplayer server so i logged on with a second account to og network and tried teleporting myself around to see if it would teleport me on my private server as well and for a brief second i thought it worked as i

Saw my coordinates change but then nope i was moved right back i was unable to teleport disappointed with my failure i spent another two or three hours trying various methods of teleporting i tried setting my spawn point then slash killing i tried connecting in different

Ways and so much more as i was getting close to giving up realizing that this bug may not be as game breaking as i had envisioned it to be something crazy happened while i was experimenting on my smp some players had found me and were just messing around placing blocks

Around me one happened to drop items onto the ground near me to which i shockingly picked up this gave me an idea i got prism online and told him to wait for my word and we did the impossible so as you can see on my private server i have a bow and 64

Arrows in my inventory then on my smp i have nothing in my inventory first i connected to my private server but then cancelled it quickly and joined my smp using the same method i talked about just before after a few seconds i got that familiar sign that i’d also

Connected to my private server you can even see this by the items in my inventory magically appearing i was now on both servers at once i then asked chromatic prism who was on my smp to drop me some items he dropped me eight pistons and enchanted diamond pickaxe

And then threw a potion on me i now had these items in my inventory on the smp then i disconnected from my smp and rejoined my private server normally boom there it was my theory was correct right in my inventory were eight pistons and the enchanted diamond pickaxe prism had

Given me on my smp this is no glitch or ghost items either i was able to place the pistons and use the pickaxe which also kept the exact same enchantments and exact same durability i had successfully brought items from my smp onto my private server i had transported

Items through servers and i was shocked i mean who would have thought this would be possible the implications of this finding could be really game breaking this wasn’t a once off exploit either utilizing the exact same method i could bring any item through to my private

Server so i had to know how far could i go with this exploit and i’ve got good news and bad news after successfully transporting items from my smp to my private server i tried to reverse this process and bring illegal items from my private server

Onto my public smp in doing so i learned something it seems that for this exploit to work you have to have slower connection to the server you want to bring items to you may have noticed how long it took me to connect to my private server with a vpn on in the previous

Experiment so i couldn’t use my private server here because i’ll connect to og-network too fast instead i set up a local server knowing that there’s no server you’ll connect to faster than one that’s hosted right on the same computer you are playing on and sure enough i

Could replicate the bug but here’s the bad news it seems that server software such as spigot paper etc prevents your inventory from bringing items across one server to another whether intentionally or unintentionally that’s also the good news by the way because it means that servers aren’t going to suddenly see the

Distribution of waves of illegal items upon my release of this video you can see that when i bring items from my local server onto the smp they aren’t real and they’re purely visual ghost items now there may be methods of successfully bypassing whatever server software is preventing this but i

Haven’t discovered it yet maybe some hack clients will be able to perform some shenanigans but i don’t know enough about the game’s code and mechanics to figure that out so yes you can transport items across servers but only if the server you are bringing items to is vanilla and isn’t using modified server

Software like spigot and paper so it would work on realms alright so that’s kind of disappointing isn’t it well not really because as a server owner i’m glad that this potential nightmare was avoided but i am still a bit bummed about it not working on public servers

But all is not bad as while it seems that the method of bringing items into public servers is currently unknown or impossible there are still some powerful exploits that can be used on public servers with this bug x-ray is one of them when you connect to both servers at

Once the chunks often don’t load properly around you allowing you to see through the ground my server has anti-x-ray by the way so this exploit bypassed it furthermore i only learned so much about this bug in my brief few hours of experimentation and yet it is still so unpredictable here’s one

Instance where i gained the ability to noclip through blocks and the world i was also entirely invisible to other players on my server this time i really was a ghost but it seemed to be random and i couldn’t successfully replicate it however if somebody does this could be

Really powerful like i mentioned earlier after my few hours of testing i was able to learn quite a bit about this obscure bug so in the hands of players who know much more about the intricacies and mechanics of the game who knows what they could discover so community do what

You do best and figure it out share this video around and before i get comments mentioning that i’m bringing attention to a bug or exploit just remember this bug report has existed for almost eight years now with numerous duplications of it mojang have had more than enough time

To look into it be sure to contact me on discord or at me on twitter if you learn anything new about this bug and i may make a follow-up video in the future make sure to subscribe and help me get to 400k thank you all so much for watching
