Wifies year rewind coming to you mid-march Don't expect such a good upload schedule lol I only uploaded this one quick because I didn't think it was up to par for a stand alone video New videos "on the horizon" :p

knowing the phantom secret is def giving me nightmares 😨

9:11 That sound confused the heck out of me On the topic of igloos, though, the reason that raids can be triggered at an igloo is not because the structure itself is coded as such, but rather solely because it contains a villager and a bed, the only two things needed to be counted as a village

The hoglin avoiding portals and respawn anchors is probably for new players who might enter the nether for the first time and would have had to fight a hoglin with basic tools

Another tip for bastions. Take off yourarmor, and drink an invis potion. You can safely open all chests without piglins caring at all.

I love how Wifies actually tells us stuff that we actually didn't know instead of stuff we've heard hundreds of times.

When I saw the thumbnail and title I expected hyper-fast editing, schlock jokes and mostly common knowledge... But this is really well done, easy to follow, and I didn't know the majority of these. Major props for a quality video!!

I knew about 33-35 of these. This is one of the best Minecraft trivia and facts video I’ve seen before! I don’t normally learn this much about the game in one video; I may need to rewatch it!

For the flame tnt looting one, looting must be in the main hand and the bow in the offhand. Otherwise looting will not trigger.

26:35 End ships weren't made to give the player a beacon. The beacon was a placeholder before the elytra got added. In a chest, you could find a written book saying that something else would be there soon.

14:00 XYZZY could be considered the "first" cheat code. It was a magic spell in Collosal Cave Adventure, which was the first adventure game, releasing in 1976. The magic spell allowed you to skip the beginning sections of the game once unlocked. The reason this cheat was implemented was that testers of the game found it boring to have to keep trucking through the beginning sections over and over again. Additionally, the word was meant to be easy to pronounce yet also strange and mystical. It also had to fit under the five letter limit of the game. Because of the 5 letter limit you could often just type the first five letters of a longer word and get the same results, such as inventory. Additionally, words such as northeast would only register as north since east would've been cut off by the letter limit.

Re the parrot thing: The problem with that is that they also remember sounds they learned in the past, so there's also gonna be a bunch of false alarms. (Besides, I'm playing with mob griefing off anyway.) Also, the mob head thing is something I keep forgetting. Do you know if it stacks with the sneak range reduction you mentioned before? Also, important side note about the fossil thing: I know enough about Minecraft's inner workings to know that literally anything that affects worldgen, also changes the coord mapping completely. This includes both worldgen changes between versions, and worldgen-modifying mods (except those for the End or with new dimensions only because it's Overworld and Nether changes that matter here). The axolotl stuff, I remember Reddit discussing that. Everyone's been overconspiring on that, when I'm pretty sure all it means is that axolotls are much more powerful than they look. The villagers panicking is actually not just an animation, it also has a chance to spawn an extra golem. The intro sound name is a reference to a video where a dude says something like "I can't believe it, it's a barnananar!" (This is the best I was able to transliterate the pronounciation.) Would've linked it if I was able to find it. I was always a fan of igloos because it's a really neat way to teach players the villager curing mechanic, but all of these extra details are downright genius. I also just realized the trapdoor over the basement entrance also doubles as teaching players from older versions (relative to when they were added) that trapdoors now link into ladders. The TNT + Looting trick also works with reversed hands, as most tools have no right-click functionality (and the one of those that do is quite situational), so you can use an offhand bow with them just fine. It also makes a design limitation in one of my datapacks (Soul tools that make mobs drop their spawn eggs when killed using them - I couldn't detect the actual killing weapon, so I had to have the loot tables react to the Soul tool being held in the main hand) particularly OP. While I didn't know that item tags can be used in the Creative menu search, what I do know is that they can also be used in custom recipes and loot tables (and probably predicates). Pretty sure most people who know about them at all know them as datapack tools (apart from the few that are actually used in the code). If I were to guess, a hoglin's fear of portals is based on the "Overworld smell" from the other side (as they zombify in the Overworld), and a charged Respawn Anchor has a portal-like texture on top which might be actually related to a portal lore-wise. I actually saw an explanation for the honey and water bottle fill levels as recently as yesterday. Never noticed it before that though. The explanation was wrong BTW - it stated that honey blocks are 1 pixel taller than water blocks, with each bottle containing a quarter of the respective block, but water bottles actually contain a third of a water block. And a third multiplied by 15/16 is actually more than a quarter. But maybe they were planning to have cauldrons give 4 bottles when adding this texture, making it a reference to a feature that ultimately never was? Jack-o-Lanterns apparently retain their enchantibility from Carved Pumpkins which can be worn (and are an infamous Curse of Binding item on SMPs and similar).

*_That "secret" sound at _**_9:10_**_ really caught me off guard..._*

18:10 I think they're programmed to be scared of Nether Portals and Respawn anchors for a good reason, Nether portals probably to prevent them from accidentally walking into it or attacking you as soon as you spawn in, and Respawn Anchors to prevent them from potentially spawn killing you. Piglins also have this same behavior. 25:18 This is likely due to the fact that you can wear carved pumpkins on your head and I could guess that Jack-o-lanterns probably share some of the same code.

2:13 can be combined with sneaking for more stealth? Also I knew maybe like 70-80% of them, and one I thought was funny was the beds and iron bars speeding up curing because I knew about the iron bars, but not the beds lol.

17:12 a similar and easier way to do this is to use view bobbing. In a strip mine if you turn view bobbing on, have a high fov, and walk in f5 you can see through the walls every time the camera bobs through the wall. Depending on the position you can see up left or right and it also works in older versions and is handy for games like uhc in 1.8

Wow many of these I actually didn't know, shows how deep this game's mechanics are Also nice notification sound at 9:10

5:14 "Axolotls are not what they seem" is a pretty straightforward Gravity Falls reference. The axolotl is the entity Bill called on in his time of need, and "Not what they seem" is a phrase from Journal 3, I think.

25:20 it’s because you can put pumpkins on your head, and it’s likely that Jack o lanterns have similar source code to pumpkins and so the algorithm that dictates whether or not an item can have the curses identified the Jack o lantern as a pumpkin

I knew 26 of these, but still some of the best and most obscure minecraft facts I've ever heard were in this video. Good job as always

Let’s take a moment to respect Wifies for never making his thumbnails clickbait

18:14 I think its because if hoglins get through they turn into zombified hoglins and its also to giv players a chance to go into the nether or respawn before getting one-shot, but there’s probably more lore connections there as well

I got back in MC after a long long time, not sure if it was one of your videos or not but if you put a haystack/ haybail underneath a fire it actually makes it higher. I found this super helpful when doing fireplaces when you want to see the smoke from outside.

Ones I already knew: 1, 3, 5, 11, 23, 24, 30, 36, 45, 49, 50, 54, 63, 65, 72, and 74. Pleasantly surprised, there were so many I didn’t know. Genuinely learned some cool tidbits, thanks!

9:16 WINDOWS NOISE

21:54 On Linux you can do the same thing by shortly pressing Ctrl+Shift+U, on some distros an underlined u will appear and on others seemingly nothing will happen. Then proceed to type the character code (with the normal number keys and the a to f letter keys) and confirm with either arrow, tab, space or enter key.Escape will cancel the process.

I don't know for sure, but I think the reason hoglins are afraid of the portals and respawn anchors is because Mojang didn't want players to be farmed/ spawn killed when loading in.

The number overflows, not the code. Minecraft uses a 32-bit signed integer to track the player's score. This means that the value can store up to 31 bits of value (2147483647) and a sign (positive or negative). When the unsigned part fills with all zeroes, adding to it will cause the 32nd bit to flip, which either makes the number negative from positive or vice versa, and because there are only 32 bits, any bits that hypothetically would've been carried over (as they would in mathematics) get discarded instead.

I first found your channel around 3 years ago, and I could not be happier to see you finally getting more recognition :D keep it up my g, great content as always

I love how the phantom noises were from the dev’s son, like instead of comforting him he just recorded it

Congrats. You managed to find at least 10 things I didn't know about minecraft. Considering I've been playing since the beta and watch way to many KZfaqrs who feal with these kind of things thats damn impressive

In #39, another detail about water cauldrons are that they don't prevent fall damage, and neither do powder snow cauldrons.

13:02 I think it's because Zombies don't tend to spawn in groups. Whenever you encounter them, they're usually alone, or already in a group.

3:37 as a speedrunner, hearing a youtuber talking about Divine Travel is insane to me for some reason. That is what finding the stronghold using the bone fossil structures is called in the community. Alternatively, they are called "boner strats"

Only knew 11 of these. Great video!

1:22 i remember when parrots were first added to pe, I made a world and spawned excessive amounts of them, so that a hoard of parrots would be following around one unfortunate sheep, copying it's baas. Definitely still funny to think about, even if it's also somewhat terrifying lmao

Similar to the lightning rod, the end rod positions itself like a unicorn horn when placed on your head with commands.

I got 60 out of 81! I think I did pretty well, and I learned a lot of new stuff too! thanks for this video Wifies! 😊

I knew about 33 of these features/bugs/easter eggs! Great Video btw ❤

Wifies I love your videos. However, this video is so cool, it stands out from all of your other videos.😊

20:20 I think the honey bottle is a little more full because honey is thicker than water.

The 8:09 MOJANG sound is also an easter egg to the old SEGA intro sound from the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive consoles (also from the game Sonic the Hedgehog)

I actually decided to keep track this time and I knew 51 of them this time! Still an amazing video and I enjoyed watching!

5:40 For those who don't know! This text is a reference to Gravity Falls, which is known for it's encripted messages. More specifically "Stan is not what he seems" and the fact that there is an entity known as the axolotl in the lore.

Wifies' videos are always worth await.

Thank you Etho, for teaching me most of these facts and Wifies for the rest

fun fact about the giant: it makes the player hurt sound because when the giant was introduced, all enemy mobs made the player hurt sound also a correction: rubies were not replaced by emeralds, they were replaced by diamonds

27:22 can we talk about how that cow just phased through the fence?

This man makes such great content!

30:12 BRUHH homie was *red-green* colourblind and their solution was changing it from RED TO GREEN???? Nawwww they did him *dirty*

I wouldn’t call the old fish texture “long forgotten”, but I do wish we had it back.

I knew a lot of them tbh, but it was one of the few videos where I still could learn a bunch of new facts (didn't count, but my educated guess would be arond 20). Thank you :)

25:01 You can do the same thing for a carved pumpkin. This is to make players have the pumpkin get stuck on their head until they die with Curse of Binding, which is a classic troll. It's even worse in hardcore mode.

#7 is a pathfinding bug. i saw a bee to the same thing with a oak log of a tree and even a fence post

Hey Wifies you know the feature where beacons go through bedrock there is also a another reason that being so the magenta beam of the end gateway can go through bedrock

25:15 the reason iirc for the Jack-o-lanterns being able to be cursed is bc you can wear the carved pumpkin as a helmet. It’s likely that when you add a torch to it, the traits of the carved pumpkin are still carried over. That’s my best guess anyway

I like that the fossil is shown at 3:41 looks like the faze logo

3:09 it's because the largest number stored in an "int" data type is 2^31 - 1, so if you add one to that it loops around to -2^31

I love how the intro sound is just like the SEGA intro in the sonic games. The nostalgia 🥲

"The axolotls are not what they seem" is a reference to the show Twin Peaks. The awesome banananana.ogg sound is the original Sega start-up sound!

25:31 Probably just a funny joke. You know? Jack-o'-lanterns? Halloween? Curses?

for the #12 you can shoot through 5 villagers and still pick up the arrow. 4 isn't the limit.

I didn’t count how much I knew, but I think we all are agree that Wifies made a great job!

10:39 The official definition of moans is that it's "a long, low sound made by a person expressing physical or mental suffering or sexual pleasure." So, it can be either sad or weird depending on which is used.

19:41 or spam F3 + a

8:03 love it!like SEGA

I didnt now 19 of these, but still a very interesting video, keep it up!

I knew probably 2 or 3! Thank you for teaching me all of that

The Day the Earth Stood Still? .... Don't you mean Army of Darkness, those 3 words are what he needed to say to retrieve the Necronomicon. Klatu was the name of the alien ambassador in the Day the Earth stood still.

16:10 wow 10 seconds so long omg

2:00 Charged creepers can actually only drop one head at a time

Thank you for the invis item frame command!

That random windows sound at around 9:10 though 😂

Bro this is hard I only got 66

#10 helped me so much as a ps4 player with horrible lag, through cake is hard to get your hands on and it’s a placable items to eat. I would rather food like steak but if it doesn’t work cake is the way to go. Thanks for the idea Wifies!

3:38 This was used in the first ever speedrun world record that was under 10 minutes. It's crazy how this works.

The thing with the Axolotls is that they are related to the warden and the warden colors inverted are the colors of the axolotls. The warden also doesn’t attack the axolotls

🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣 14:34

can you combine the methods of closeup sneaking to get within a REALLY short distance? or does that not work

I got all but 15, and I think being a speedrunner helped me know a lot of these things before, as some are used for strats. Of course some other things are just from reading patch notes and watching youtube videos

0:49 Did that pig just... teleport???

Here before the « First » comments spam

9:10 How did that go unnoticed? XD Great Video none the less.

4:37 The turtles' status actually is set to "IsPregnant". Thanks Phoenix SC :)

I wish you would upload more often, I really love your videos

9:11 loving the sound design!

Cool new informations, thx I knew around 32, all other was new for me

I knew 72/81 of these :P Also in the end screen you made the text appear just too early for the card lol

#43: Can also be done with pistons and slime blocks in a certain way. Also, in super old versions, using a specific cacti setup can duplicate the drops of a boat, up to four times.

8:27 would this work with allays and foxes too? (Because they can both pick stuff up)

1:30 that with the parrots following mobs ik, becaus i was trying to tame a parrot but he did follow an ozelott an started flying high up and i couldnt reach that biach T°T gave up on that. it didnt even cared about the seeds in my hand

I love how in the vid's pic he shows us something weird. But here he shows us things much weirder than those😂😂😂 We love you, wifies

Wow. I only knew 2/81. The first one and the 77th one. That's really cool!

wifies you are so cool, these videos are amazing ❤ i knew 26 which surprised me a lot lol

genuinely thanks ma man, I didn't know a LOT of these.

Wifies is one of the few minecraft youtubers that i have stuck with growing up

Nice video, I knew 48 of them which is a win in my book!

Hoglins are scared of portals because they can't survive in the Overworld; they zombify there. In that aspect, they seem to have better instincts than Piglins. The fact they're scared of respawn anchors too is probably because they have a similar appearance.

8:08 I believe that sound is supposed to be a reference to old Sega games

1. There is a resource pack on vanilatweaks where it will translate the enchantment language. 2. I have a theory that hoglins when approaching a nether portal they get scared of being turned into zombified hoglins (if it gets struck by lightning) (yes it's an actual mob in-game)
