50 ways Minecraft is different to real life 

“Skeletons don’t exist” this confirms Mumbo is boneless

I'd like to imagine that Mumbo tried all these things to make sure they didn't work in real life.

Can’t believe Mumbo managed to find something to top “rocks don’t float” and “if you die you probably won’t respawn” for number 50 but wow he sure did

I’m glad he made this video. I haven’t been outside in three weeks and I needed a refresher as to what real life is.

I love how Mumbo made an entire video just to get off a mustache joke.

As a person who said ‘this is a stupid video’ before Mumbo Jumbo, I can confirm it was a life-changing experience.

We need a sequel where it shows how Minecraft actually IS similar to real life :D Like the bucket fishing thing, or maybe Mycelium or grass spreading?

“Skeletons don’t exist.” -Mumbo Jumbo, 2022

"Imprisoning the people of your village and forcing them to work is generally frowned upon." is quite possibly the funniest thing I've ever heard Mumbo say

This man went on a buddhist experience to touch real grass for a while, returns, and starts posting videos about how the real world is different from the game he makes content about. Incredible. Truly an inspiration to us all!

I love how Mumbo never fully confirms that the most obvious differences between Minecraft and real life are true. So *maybe* throwing a block of stone onto a cactus will make the stone disappear without a trace.

Mumbo mentioning installing a kitchen with a furnace that cannot be moved now has me thinking about Thor running a kitchen-appliances service where he will move your furnace 🤦🏻‍♂

Actually, the size of minecraft's mountains makes a lot of sense if the gravity is really strong because the higher the gravity of the planet, the shorter mountains can be, and if the atmosphere is thin it would make sense for the mountains to be snow capped even if they're short. So in a way it's actually pretty realistic for a planet with really high gravity like minecraft to be the way minecraft is!

Mumbo: If one of these surprised you, I'm concerned for you. Also Mumbo: Skeletons don't exist in real life

“Imprisoning the people of your village and forcing them to work for you is generally frowned upon” - Mumbo Me: Wait I’m NOT supposed to do that?!

6:27 Another interesting tidbit about TNT: if 1 block of TNT is 1.6 tonnes, then an entire double chest filled with 54 shulker boxes each filled with 27 stacks of TNT blocks would have a yield of 152,372.2 tonnes. For comparison, the bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima was 13,607 tonnes.

This is so much more entertaining if you imagine that these are all things Mumbo discovered during his bike trip. I strongly believe now that Mumbo had been making a list during his time playing Minecraft, and then finally one day just told Vicky that they were going to start crossing things off.

You can feel Mumbo’s energy back in the videos, and it feels great, so glad he’s rested

Id like to note that silverfish are another hostile mob that exists in real life, they’re just smaller and much more docile

8:57 “Oooo self burn! Those are rare!”

It's always a joy to see the reactions of people who have only seen Mumbo's Minecraft content when they learn that he, in fact, does not have a moustache in real life.

that was a solid video for what was essentially a build up to the killer joke of "i can't actually grow a moustache"

Kind of surprised you completely overlooked the fact that a bucket essentially has an infinite amount of water/lava if you use it from a high place.

@8:40 This is however disgustingly close to the way chickens are farmed on an industrial scale.

The final line hit me HARD. This is unironically a cinematic masterpiece.

I would LOVE to watch Mumbo talk about 50 oddly accurate things about Minecraft.

Let's not forget the fact that if one minecraft block is one meter, one minecraft world has more surface area than Neptune. The planet.

7:29 I would’ve started dying if he said “wow that cow is a true gem” afterwards

Bonus fact for the lava bucket thing. Mostly for when you were sitting in it afterwards. Lava is very dense. Molten rock is less dense than it's solid counterpart, but rock is rock, and you would sit, burning, on the surface of the lava, perhaps molding a dent into the top at best.

This is classic Mumbo Jumbo

this video made me smile. i took a break from playing minecraft around when you started your break, and ive just started up again and saw you returned as well. feels a little serendipitous to me

this is such a perfectly organized video it’s so satisfying. like the basic premise of the game is impossible and yet he managed to find 50 distinct and interesting differences to point out

I'm glad Mumbo is working on random stuff he's inspired to do rather than feeling forced to make Hermitcraft.

As someone who ran a 38 minute 10k once, I appreciate being referred to as an "elite runner"

So happy to see you back at it and making videos you enjoy rather than videos that pay the bills. I promise these videos will do just as well so keep being happy. ❤

Would love a sequel to this about 50 things which are similar

4:38 Interesting fact, there actually were spider-like creatures around this size which existed millions of years ago: eurypterids, an extinct group of aquatic arthropods. Megarachne, a member of this group which resembles spiders pretty closely, could grow to half a meter. Jaekelopterus was one of the largest at 3 meters, but it looked more like an aquatic scorpion on crack. That said, we also have things like spider crabs which exist today at the bottom of the ocean; including their legs, they can span 4 meters across.

Also note: Since players fit in a 1x2x1 block area, they are less than 2 cubic meters total, and the head MUST be less than 1x1x1 meter in size, most likely around .8 cubic meters. Another fine side note: 1 block of gold (1 cubic meter) would be 19,282 Kilos of gold. Since Steve (and mumbo) seem able to move these around with ease, obviously those 40 inch+ biceps get put to good use.

mormons won't like the "you probably won't respawn when you die" part

the most mumbo thing ever is doing an entire video of buildup to just crack a mustache joke and end the vid as soon as physically possible afterwards. 10/10, loved it

So glad Mumbo is able to do these fun blip videos again. He genuinely sounds like he's having fun again!

The funny part about fall damage and water in Minecraft is that water actually acts in a opposite manner in real life depending on how high you've jumped from, from the top of a house into a meter of water (all full blocks are 1m cubed) is probably safe even though you will feel it but hitting it at higher speeds is more akin to slamming head first into concrete and will more likely than not kill you.

I was not ready for that ending. It was intense and brutal. The truth and power in that statement shook me to my core!

Having to make counter weights for pistons would be interesting, Having to put density mechanics in the game would make it a bit easier than a 12 blocks behind to push 12 blocks forward mechanic.

'imprisoning the people of your village and forcing them to work for you is generally frowned upon' favourite mumbo quote ever

The writing! This was such a well executed narration. References to past seasons, funny bits,a thieving cow, actual research… I enjoyed this immensely!

You had me in stitches this whole video. Well done!!

I'd argue that this is actually not a stupid video, but a rather good one considering it kept my attention for the whole time! (this is an impressive feat) I've only recently found your content and its very much enjoyable!

Glad to see you getting back into Minecraft. Even more glad that you’ve taken time for yourself. Thanks for being awesome! :D

The relevation of real life Mumbo not being able to grow a mustache was SHOCKING. Where are all the news reporters bringing this LIVE on TV?!

This literally lightened my day - thank you :D

6:28 I live about 30 minutes away from split rock, and you can go there today. There is actually a large bit of the building left, and its very cool looking.

I love how strange minecraft really is, you would never even notice these things if you were just playing normally

I actually view minecraft items as more like teleportation tokens, which would make a few of these make a bit of sense (since all items act the same, they probably are the same)

This was creative, and thoughtful, and funny. please keep making more and be sure to remember that you are appreciated. you are a wonderful creator, and your community cares about you a great deal. Be save and be well

Wouldn’t it be so cool if Mumbo just came back to the server to discover everyone is gone and he became the hero that reopened the rift/found a way for hermits to be able to return to Hermitcraft? Also would be so funny to get montages of him just being lonely on the server

This is great. I’ve often thought how a visitor to the Minecraft universe would describe it to Earthlings. The thing I get hung up on is water. A single one-meter block will flow infinitely. Two blocks can form two more blocks. Water can be consumed infinitely without depleting the source. Etc.

Mumbo’s incredible style and skill beyond is beyond human comprehension and ascends me to another plane of existence.

8:28 i actually saw an old video where a bunch of workers were hammering sticks of dynamine into crack of big wood pieces, and blowing them up in order to split the wood apart into smaller pieces. tho it probably isnt very useful today where every logger probably owns a chainsaw lol

Munbo: I can grow a stash in real life Mumbo's wife: I beg to differ

4:22 But Mumbo, skeletons do exist. One of them is closer to you than you would think...

This is great. It’s kinda visible how the whole video spawned from the last fact which in itself probably came into mind after competing in that November beard growing challenge. I love it

"If you die it is unlikely that you will respawn" Mumbo really needed to address the single exception.

You could do a Redstone video with Supplementaries (Mod) ! Love Your Videos ! :D

“Shoving a bunch of cows into a 1 meter by 1 meter hole is probably illegal in real life.” Factory farming: *I’m about to end this man’s whole career*

I can't believe Mumbo retconned the existence of skeletons from real life

it would be fun if someone made a mod out of some of these suggestions. not those typical "realistic Minecraft" with like real looking textures and no cubes, but like a mod that e.g. makes villagers behave more like normal humans, making trees bigger, maybe more realistic resources, etc etc. would be fun to play i can imagine

another funny difference i dont even think the devs intended this but mobs such as cows, sheep, pigs, etc. can climb ladders for some reason

7:41 Actually, this is not confirmed, people have tried making a portal but they couldn’t find a flint and steel.

Who else is very happy that mumbo had a needed break?

The thing with the golden apple was that it was made with 8 gold blocks, so not only would the apple itself be horrendously expensive, but so would the visit to the dentist

You forgot about mining in general. You can mine infinity without having to stop and place supports like you need to in real life. Then instead of however long you want the tunnel you need to stop when your supports can’t hold the earth back very well. That of course flows into cave ins. Even with support they happen yet in Minecraft you can predict and see when and where a “cave in” will happen !

Minecraft being imperfect is one of the best things about it, you barely even notice it when playing but when you realise the little things its amazing! P.s - I would just like to thank Grians chat for telling me about this video xD

Literally will want that part two where you just point to the whole creative chart, stating “doesn’t exist.” Your random prattles happen to be where I find my comfort.

Idk why but Mumbo saying peace love and plants just made me so happy.

I absolutely adore your sense of humor

4:27 I love how so many people overlook the silverfish as a real thing.

4:39 as an australian i can say, spiders can grow way bigger than that. for reference the funnleweb on the ride at janbaroo action park is actually the size of a real spider.

How is it that Mumbo can make a video, of him essentially rambling on about how Minecraft is not reality (which I mean is obvious... it's a video game). Yet it still be entertaining and enjoyable, and the mustache joke was a perfect way to end.

1:00 unless it's a: Feather Any Meat Dirt Sand Gravel Wool stuff Redstone component (The open wires would not be happy) Paper Leather (depends on strength) Door, pressure plate, etc. (Would break in half because too thin) Dust (redstone, glowstone, sugar, gunpowder) Cookie Cake Rotten flesh And many more.

5:45 13 cubic metres of dirt have a mass of approximately 19.5 tonnes. The fact that pistons can push 12 cubic metres of any block (including gold) is already insane

100% honesty: I was subscribed to Mumbo for idek how many years but I never watched his videos (other than for redstone tutorials and possibly Hermitcraft). But ever since his video about him taking a break and doing better for himself, I find myself watching every video. I'm happy for you, bud, you deserve this.

Mumbo: 1 meter spiders don't exist Welcome to the land down under

Someone needs to tell Mumbo about the hard stuff inside of the body.

It's really crazy when you compare the two. I never noticed how many fantasy elements real life has that aren't actually in Minecraft.

Mumbo calling the enslavement of villagers in real life "Generally frowned upon" made my day

7:38 I own some pieces of obsidian (I collect rocks) and they get damaged quite easily actually. But me and my friend who also collects rocks will evaluate if you can make a portal with 10 pieces

"The nether isn't real" Clearly mumbo never experienced a Greek summer

8:02 I guarantee that someone is going to take this out of context

I love how after all these years of playing Minecraft Mumbo still doesn't know how to breed cows

0:00 the person who said this video is stupid before mambo recorded it: I’m 4 parallel universes ahead of you

I was going with the opening statement until we got to the closing statement. That admission alone saved the video. Well played Mumbo, well played. 👍

I love the fact that a lot of these were perfectly clippable.

This legitimately makes me rethink reality when I'm playing Minecraft; like, I feel completely captivated from the outside world, but maybe that's just me very very poorly multitasking.

This is a perfect example of the mumbo we know and love

4:37 "I certainly hope it doesn't exist in real life" Australia: are you challenging me?

My wife and I are so overjoyed to watch your videos again. I really hope you read all of the comments because I want to share our journey with you. Your redstone videos are what got me hooked and then your season 7 base caught my wife's eye while I had you on one day. Very shortly after, season 8 started, and we were hooked. Your fun with Grian led us to third life which is where we became curious about Scar. Proceeding to binge both Grian and Scar's third life series we had to check out their season 8. Long story short, we now watch every new video from a majority of the Hermitcraft crew, both Hermitcraft and others as well. We are constantly meeting more creators through everyone's videos... But we have you, Mumbo Jumbo, to thank for our nightly entertainment and escape from the world around us. Thank you for your quick cuts that very much are engaging with our ADHD. Thank you for being you, we love when your personality shines and that you took the time to take care of yourself and have what I'm sure was a great adventure. We have missed you so unbelievably much. We also struggle with anxiety, perfectionism, and the worst task paralysis, and like all the executive dysfunction. So we both really appreciate the example you're setting of taking care of yourself. We love you so much and want the best for you whether it's on RU-vid or not. We definitely wanted to give you the bragging rights of being THE reason why we are now addicted to Minecraft videos. THANK YOU MUMBO JUMBO!!! We are so happy to see you again ❤️❤️❤️

"i hope these spiders don't exist in real life" *Australia has entered the chat*

i like to think that mumbo came up with the "cant grow a mustache" joke first and then made the video just to build up to it

Mumbo: these spiders are too big Me: ever heard of Australia?
