“cave noises happen in real life” if youve ever been around caves youd understand. they occasionally make creepy rumbling sounds if you stand outside by the opening. i used to cave all the time as a kid so its not new to me. basically the cave acts as a tube to focus and amplify the vibrations from the rocks and stuff moving in the earths crust which makes weird sounds from the caves.

"I hardly believe steve will be in smash"

the evoker sound "Wololoo!" is a direct reference to the game Age of Empires, where monks converting enemy troops play the exact same sound, "Wololoo!". when enemy troops are converted, they switch over to the monks side, and the color of their clothing changes. this is again referenced in Minecraft, because if you put an evoker near a dyed sheep (either blue or red), the evoker can switch the sheep's wool color from blue to red, and vice versa.

As much of a meme as herobrine is, I always thought the “removed herobrine” note was interesting as it implies that mojang keeps trying to get him out of the game, but he won’t leave, which is an interesting lore tidbit.

Fun fact : The person who made The Aether mod (Brandon Pearce) is actually working for Minecraft right now.

"There are no secret commands I could find."

Fun fact: The red dragon actually exists on minecraft, You just have to punch the ender dragon.

Fun fact: The sphere image in the Depths level of the iceberg was made by a Spanish Minecraft youtuber called KillerCreeper55. He made it using command blocks to spawn a ton of minecarts with a terracotta block inside that had its height value changed to spawn way above the minecarts. The minecarts themselves can be spawned in any rotation, and that's how he could make a sphere.

nuke: not that scary

29:38 is a sped-up voice line of a mage from Age of Empires. The spell can change enemy units to be on your team. In Minecraft, these illagers can change red sheep into blue sheep and vise versa - a reference to Age of Empires

Minecon 2008 is a easter egg hidden in the title screen. The yellow text next to minecraft sometimes says “No one knows where minecon 2008 was held”

"The bible predicted minecraft"

“Omg, the evoker sound is from a cult recording!”

"Dedotated Wam" i feel bad for the kid, he was so scared of the camera

regarding "steve spawn egg"

I'm actually kind of disappointed that most of the things in the lower levels are just made up or stupid memes.

Jeb has stated that the wither is actually inspired by the game terraria and its summonable boss mechanic. Both of the games seem to be quite friendly with each other, with both having splash texts saying "also try [other game]", and terraria has a vanity creeper costume you can obtain during the halloween season.
