Let's forget the fact that Steve's body should be accustomed to the gravity of minecraft, making him a lot more sturdier than a regular human, so it is not fair to calculate Steve's density and/or the capacity of his bones' breaking points at the same level
Yeah. If his the acceleration towards minecraft earth is 32m/s² (im too lazy to go back I think that was the a) and the stopping acceleration is 38m/s² that's just a tad higher than the earth acceleration. So he's only experiencing 1 dot something gs of force or not?
Hello Tom. It's me. Your only viewer. Over the years i created the illusion that you have many subscribers, but it was me. Now i will write you from my alt accounts.
Did Tom and Santi play Minecraft together and then Santi stole Tom’s diamonds? Which is why Tom has been shading Santi the entire episode? That’s absolutely hilarious 😭
A couple things wrong in this video. First, when you calculate the mass using density and volume, you get 329.8 kg which is mass, but then you equate it to 727 lbs which is a weight, not a mass. The correct equivalence would be 22.5 Slug which is the imperial mass unit, which when multiplied by Minecraft gravity in imperial units (104.9 ft/s^2) you get over 2300 lbs of weight, so I’m not sure where the 727 lbs is coming from. Secondly, the F=ma calculate that you perform to find the impact force is actually just a weight calculation. 10,553.6 N is equal to 2,372 lbs, which is the weight I showed earlier. Weight vs impact force is very different. Having a 10 lb dumbbell rest on your chest is very different than having one thrown at you. You need to use the work-energy principle to find the impact force, not F=ma. The work-energy principle states that the change in kinetic energy is equal to the work done during impact. So you can say: Force x distance traveled = change in KE. The change in KE is just the Potential Energy, and the distance is the theoretical amount of distance Steve would travel after the fall (e.g. if he creates a crater in the ground it would be a block or two). The more distance Steve travels after the impact, the less impact force there is (same principle with cars and crumple zones to increase travel distance in a crash). So the final equation to find the impact force would be F = mgh/d where m is the mass of Steve, g is the acceleration due to gravity, h is the height he fell from, and d is the distance he travels (vertically) after impact. The final answer should be much higher than what was calculated.
That’s a thought I had watching the video. He said “steve would be falling with a force of 4000 N, which would crush a skull” and I though “well it depends how long the fall is, a fall of 10cm isn’t going to crush a skull, but 100m would”. This is also why the imperial system is rubbish. What even is a slug dude?
@Crimzzon_Ghost more like them both would be the college teachers cause after watching the video, I was confused on the math part on Steve's fall impact.
Before diving in, here's my idea. We know you gotta hit BEFORE touching down. Maybe it converts all kinetic energy into its burst, sending it from you to the target. This is a fantasy setting after all. Also I like to imagine the head spins as you fall.
It’s the breeze rod used to make it. Breeze charges cancel fall damage caused by their extra height. That’s the logic behind it. That’s all. That’s the only logic Mojang put into it
I know little about modern Minecraft and after knowing the Breeze from a previous theory video and him saying part way through about it being made from a breeze rod I immediately understood that's how you take no fall damage. I didn't even know about breeze charges existing or whatever but theory gotta "theory"
Although possible i think the reason is because all those added kinetic energy is actualled poured into the damage but that will not still be able to help you if you fall from somehere very high the breeze rod helps him fall slowly than normal so he dosent die and take fall damage this is my reason
15:22 getting rid of the height limit makes sense because you can still travel thousands of blocks into the sky past the height limit. This is most commonly done with an elytra. The height limit is a build height limit after all. I would be interest to see how with an elytra, the science of the mace could be even more devastating since you fall faster with an elytra. We could even look at Hermitcraft and test what’s the fastest way to fall in Minecraft to see if the mace could be even more deadly.
@@nemasisdemarini8339 no it doesn't, you can even use the elytra to fall from super high then right as you hit, you swoop back up, just to live incase you miss
I have a theory that the breeze rod in the mace is what removes your fall damage. The breeze rod summons wind that pushes against you for a slower stop. Like an emergency brake. Though, for this to be realistic, Steve would be gusted back up in the air for a few blocks and slowly go down for like 3 blocks.
10:00 it gets even worse when you factor in wind burst, which INSTANTLY reverses Steve into the air, that abrupt reversal of velocity would definitly be fatal
the mace uses breeze rods which comes from a mob that manipulates air, the breeze rods might grant steve feather falling(havent watched full vid yet so u couldve came to this conclusion.) edit OMG i got so many likes i loki feel like a celeberty thank yall so much
You can't say that Steve's bones would shatter at 4700N. Since he is in different gravity, and has a much much larger mass, his bones will be much much much much stronger.
Exactly! The average human dies at falls of around 15 meters while Steve dies at 23 meters in 2.9x the gravity of earth! He’s completely built different
11:42 really bothered me because this guy is 700 lbs and is under WAY more gravity and you're going to claim his bones are at the same fragility level? To survive literally existing they'd have to be WAY more resilient than anyone on this planet's bones.
Yeah and plus Minecraft Earth is so much larger than ours its around the size of Neptune (it fits 27 earths inside) so it makes sense that he would have more mass and weigh, he probably adapted for survival
@@SerbianCountryball211 yeah, but if it was flat like actual minecraft, it would be ~6.3 trillion light years across, reaching other solar systems if an edge/corner was where our solar system is
Not to mention that the dude can literally punch a tree down with his bare hands... and how much gold Steve can lift again, it's been a while since I've seen that episode of "Science of..." So... he, is, DENSE! Them bones gotta have some CRAZY resistance to that kind of weight management, just to exist as well.
A couple of things you missed that might warrant a follow-up episode: 1. You only calculated the mass of Steve when figuring out how fast/hard he'd fall, but the mace itself is made of a component literally called a "heavy core", and its damage-increasing enchantment is called "Density". Clearly, the mass of the mace is significant and should have been included in all those calculations. 2. The data determining the fatality of various falls is based on human anatomy, but humans evolved to deal with a gravity of 9.8m/s². If Steve evolved on a world with 32m/s² gravity, he'd surely be more resilliant: stronger bones, more robust organs, etc. Otherwise, just jumping down a tiny ledge would be highly detrimental to his evolution. So I think there's some proportionality calculations that need to be included to determine what's actually lethal for Steve vs a regular human.
Did you notice that when he calculated Steve's mass, he transformed from g to kg instantly? How do i say it? Isn't Steve's mass 0.3kg instead of 300something kg??? Just me?
That "heavy core" component is probably the key to surviving the fall damage. It probably magically defers the newtons that your body would take to your victim instead.
Not only that but having a different acceleration of gravity is what affects the weight of an object. A human would weigh differently on different planets as a result.
@@maxmikester8185 Sure, but that's irrelevant. When he's calculating force, it takes gravitational acceleration into account already; the mass would not change with gravity.
@@VolcanoPenguin Maybe. I like the explanation that it's the breeze rod component that negates fall damage, by magically absorbing your speed with an air cushion when you hit something.
That title of the episode: "And then I saw that Mace; Now I am a believer". Whoever are making these puns deserve a raise !!! Also, the Santi-Tom rivalry is hilarious. I guess it is a forever gag. LOL !!!
I think one detail to note is that Steve weights 300+ KG! If his mass is that much, it wouldn’t be a stretch to assume that his bones and body are a LOT tougher and would be able to withstand more force without injuries :D
I was gonna say, the player’s femur, assuming the skeleton is functionally the same as the player’s, is more than 6 times the thickness, and a whopping 36 times the cross-sectional area. This would give it a shatter point of about 150’000 newtons of force. A far cry from the 4KN a human’s can handle
Haven’t finished watching the video, but I’m gonna call it that the maze disperses all the kinetic energy through whatever it hits which is why it releases that massive amount of energy if you hit something but you just end up succumb to fall damage if you miss because the energy goes through you and not the mace
the fact steve is so heavy, may also be due to the higher force of gravity on his world, he might weigh about 250 on earth, but in the over world it may be higher, in the end, and in the nether, I would expect him to be lighter, and heavier respectively..
Very smart notice! I hope Tom sees this. I feel like there has to be a more accurate way to meausure Steve's mass; he is 2m tall (2 blocks), not 1.875 to my best observations
@@CGammer101 Steve is just under 2 meters, not exactly 2 meters, and this is true in-game as well, you can stand up just fine with a trapdoor above your head, and even with the trapdoor above your head taking up 1/8'th of a block, you can still jump, it's a very small jump, but that means there's still space, so if anything that's even less than 1.875
We calculated mass not weight in the video. His weight would change based on gravity in various locations but his mass would be constant. Mass doesn't change based on gravity, weight does.
Mass is not weight. You don't even need to know that either, you just need to ask why would the force of gravity affect Tom's calculation of Steve's mass, when its not in the formula?
Since it's a fantasy world and Steve is clearly not human (looking at his enourmous strength, regeneration and resistance), his density could have been calculated differently (e.g. using his acceleration in water assuming same water density as in our universe). Considering his mass, his terminal velocity would also be different then that of a standard human being so gaining speed after falling from heights similar to pointed out at the end of the video (assuming consistent gravitational field in Minecraft world) isn't such a far-fetched idea.
I think there's a problem witht the math, specificly about steve's density. A human in water float but steve drown, so steve's density can't be the same as a human et can't be lower than 1 so steve's mass is even higher than we think
He's also not even human, since he lives in the minecraft world with a MUCH higher gravity, and he can carry thousands of tones of materials in his pocket. This whole video's math is flawed
@@ephraimboateng5239 in minecraft dropped/lootable items have buoyancy, so they are super low dencity, so basically they don't weight about anything and that way steve can store as much as he can fit in it's pockets and they don't add mass to the steve, maybe even his pocket is an another little dimension. but I woluld say that the item he is holding in his hand will add mass, atleast tools, but not example gold block stack, but that is my theory
My theory is that minecraft sea water doesn't have salt in it to make steve float and what makes more sense is that salt doesn't even exist in minecraft.
@@alexandrearmandine8845Objection, salt does exist in minecraft, specifically in education and bedrock edition. So maybe java oceans and bedrock oceans are different?
@@alexandrearmandine8845 but still, salt or not, humans float in water, like if you go swim in a lake, will you just sink or do you bop at the surface?
7:05 "That equates to each pixel having a volume of 201.23 cm^3. [...] how many of these pixel-cubes steve is made out of to get his total volume" Voxels: "Am I a joke to you?"
I feel like its worth mentioning that a mace is still useful (in irl terms) without the flying slam - its concussion/impact based damage style penetrates armor where swords may struggle But then againts IRL
What about if steve transfer ALL of his knetic energy to the mace at the point of impact as a "magic" effect maybe gain from the materials that it is made? The effect IS something that is activated by a action not a passive
11:56 he can hold blue ice(19.3 tonnes, round to19) a stack is 1216, a full sulked is 32832, imagine a shulker full inventory actually a full inventory is 37 so 1214784 tonnes, 1339070 American tons, and its way off even if the math is correct because i rounded
In creative you can copy chests with blocks in in them. You can do that 128 times and then the data becomes to much. And you can have an inventory of shulkers with stacks of the chests. This number is so big that there isn't any calculator that can calculate it. It's the mass of multiple universes(Steve build different)
Since Minecraft is a world with magic, what if the heavy core’s magical ability is converting all the kinetic energy of the user and transferring it into the enemy, including the internal organs. So even the organs stop moving and don’t try to keep going. Plus you didn’t have to put into consideration how high a human could survive a fall because we already know Steve can already survive a fall of just under 24 blocks.
During the video I kind of just randomly realize that the Minecraft mace is probably the epitome of human slander. The heavy core is most likely an incredibly advanced piece of machinery to power something the size of a mountain. And yet hear we the player are, we attach it to a stick and hit stuff with it... Humans really are something... Also like somebody else said the breeze rods in the handle are probably why you survive.
My headcannon is that since Steve can carry shulkerboxes filled with diamond blocks, his arms can absorb all the impact returning from the mace. You need to take into account that the point of contact with the target and thus the burst returning from the mace is Steve's hands, such a force is strong enough to negate the velocity he gathered up until then and land softly. If anything the power of powdered snow with a carpet above it or a water block is an even more interesting case...
12:26 accurate, my mom read a news story about a woman who fell 40 feet off a cliff and survived with minimal damage. This made her pretty mad since she had fallen three feet into the neighbor's lawn, broken four ribs and bruised a lung.
7:50 well that would make sense as the gravity on the minecraft earth is much stronger and considering that steve is taller than the average hight its safe to assume he'd be way heavier (mainly due to gravity pulling him down multiplying his mass) Same would happen to other planets This is why when whales beach they often die fast as no living creature can get to that size unless its in a lower gravity area like space,other planets and technically water (i say water as when you swim in it it feels like you have no weight and are like in zero G, that is if you know how to swim) From this we also could probably figure out the density of the air as we can see how fast the blocks fall
Hmm, I think it stands to reason that if Steve is so much denser than any human being, his bones are muscles are much stronger and thus the damage is tolerable. And if I'm not mistaken, the 7 blocks fall is enough that you take fall damage. Non lethal, but damage nonetheless. Then we bring up the fact the mace is made with drops from a creature that manipulates air. Perhaps the mace comes with a built-in spell that gives you feather falling effect, *if you hit it right,* that is.
The breeze rods could slow down the fall. Since wind charges are made from breeze rods, and wind charges give a big air burst once it hits a block or entity. The breeze rods could be the condensed less powerful version that allows a small burst, but enough to save your fall damage, but only when you hit someone, like the wind charge.
"...163 times the length of the observable universe..." Would be really embarassing to mess up the timing on the mace strike at that point, wouldn't it?
9:48 this statement isn’t actually more accurate. In a physics sense deceleration doesn’t exist, only acceleration in the opposite direction (often denoted as negative acceleration)🤓🤓🤓
although it’s important to note that negative acceleration does not necessarily equal “slowing down” since it can also mean acceleration in a certain direction. Gravity is often said to be -9.8 m/s^2 because down is considered to be the negative direction
I really want to call you a nerd but this info is actually cool... This is conflicting to a degree that has never been reached before... Anyways, cool story bro!
I realized something; wouldn't it change when Steve falls? I mean, Tom only calculated Steve's velocity, and didn't do any mathematics on the Mace itself. I mean, isn't the Mace the thing that deals all that damage, not Steve himself? It's just what I think though, but think about it; Steve falls at 10,553.6 N, buts that's only Steve, not the Mace.
15:25 I love the idea of someone climbing two thirds of the way up Mount Everest and then jumping off and slamming the ground with the force of a nuclear bomb.
I have a theory for a MORTY episode: It's about a mobile game called zombie catchers, where you catche zombies and squeeze them into drinks to sell to your costumers. In the game you are an alien (in earth) working for a union of zombie catchers ( who are also all aliens). My point is that this is a game about comperate greed plantetary take over and deadly expiriments on the human race only to gain, power and money. Throut the game and it's levels there are clues adout that previous theory, aliens turn humans into zombies (probably in storage tanks) but on escaped and caused a zombie pandemic on earth ( as tolded by zombie boss dialog). You can check the game yourselfs or playthrous of it, if want, I think it is an intersting theory. ( but I don't know if it is a hypothesis)
3:10 The thing is not everything can be potential. For example, if you are holding the ball the energy is kinetic since no human can stay perfectly still without practice. That's is one of Newton’s laws an object in motion stays in motion until an external force stops it. That being said if we are talking about it with the gravity and motion itself this is exact. Wow im a nerd
newton's law is not the best reasoning for why a stationary object (assuming a frame of reference where it can be considered stationary) has kinetic energy. a better, more generalized reason is the fact that the atoms that make up the ball/humans/anything have inherent kinetic energy. the amount of kinetic energy objects have due to interactions of atomic particles on this magnitude has no significant bearing on their physical behavior on the scale of meters likewise and as a side note, we hold the assumption that the projectile (mace + player) is released from rest, and even slight differences in the release velocity (say it were released 0.001m/s instead of at 0m/s) have a slight but insignificant bearing on the resultant calculations of force being made in the video
@Iemontine. I feel that is just going a little technical but that is true. By the way just want to clarify this is not in the game. Just saying it not assuming you meant that.
bro is literally the definition of "explain your answer". bro. my brain hurts after this. I understood most of this but the fact of deceleration and finding the force of the stop made me think twice. This is also educational so it is a good video to watch to in school and get away with.
Let's forget the fact that Steve's body should be accustomed to the gravity of minecraft, making him a lot more sturdier than a regular human, so it is not fair to calculate Steve's density and/or the capacity of his bones' breaking points at the same level
Plus he is capable of hauling hundreds of Tons with ease inventory barely even used
yea without feather falling he dies at around 23 block so 12 meters about right for the "50/50" thing because he is kinda half dead😆
Yeah. If his the acceleration towards minecraft earth is 32m/s² (im too lazy to go back I think that was the a) and the stopping acceleration is 38m/s² that's just a tad higher than the earth acceleration. So he's only experiencing 1 dot something gs of force or not?

I was gonna say, the player’s femur, assuming the skeleton is functionally the same as the player’s, is more than 6 times the thickness, and a whopping 36 times the cross-sectional area. This would give it a shatter point of about 150’000 newtons of force. A far cry from the 4KN a human’s can handle
He is probably around 4-5X tougher than a normal human

@@gabriellaburke6915the bot copied look at the pfp
Santi taking strays yet again 😂
Haven’t finished watching the video, but I’m gonna call it that the maze disperses all the kinetic energy through whatever it hits which is why it releases that massive amount of energy if you hit something but you just end up succumb to fall damage if you miss because the energy goes through you and not the mace
@thisisayoutubechannelisntt-m3rOk fatherless bot
I this is what I’m thinking but the mace uses the breeze rod to lessen your fall and take the energetic from you to the mobs
17:07 funny mouth clip
the fact steve is so heavy, may also be due to the higher force of gravity on his world, he might weigh about 250 on earth, but in the over world it may be higher, in the end, and in the nether, I would expect him to be lighter, and heavier respectively..
Very smart notice! I hope Tom sees this. I feel like there has to be a more accurate way to meausure Steve's mass; he is 2m tall (2 blocks), not 1.875 to my best observations
@@CGammer101 Steve is just under 2 meters, not exactly 2 meters, and this is true in-game as well, you can stand up just fine with a trapdoor above your head, and even with the trapdoor above your head taking up 1/8'th of a block, you can still jump, it's a very small jump, but that means there's still space, so if anything that's even less than 1.875
We calculated mass not weight in the video. His weight would change based on gravity in various locations but his mass would be constant. Mass doesn't change based on gravity, weight does.
Mass is not weight. You don't even need to know that either, you just need to ask why would the force of gravity affect Tom's calculation of Steve's mass, when its not in the formula?
ok thank you all! I didnt realize lol
Since it's a fantasy world and Steve is clearly not human (looking at his enourmous strength, regeneration and resistance), his density could have been calculated differently (e.g. using his acceleration in water assuming same water density as in our universe).
Considering his mass, his terminal velocity would also be different then that of a standard human being so gaining speed after falling from heights similar to pointed out at the end of the video (assuming consistent gravitational field in Minecraft world) isn't such a far-fetched idea.
I think there's a problem witht the math, specificly about steve's density. A human in water float but steve drown, so steve's density can't be the same as a human et can't be lower than 1 so steve's mass is even higher than we think
He's also not even human, since he lives in the minecraft world with a MUCH higher gravity, and he can carry thousands of tones of materials in his pocket. This whole video's math is flawed
@@ephraimboateng5239 it ain't a game theory vid without off math or trying to apply our world's physics to begin with
@@ephraimboateng5239 in minecraft dropped/lootable items have buoyancy, so they are super low dencity, so basically they don't weight about anything and that way steve can store as much as he can fit in it's pockets and they don't add mass to the steve, maybe even his pocket is an another little dimension.
but I woluld say that the item he is holding in his hand will add mass, atleast tools, but not example gold block stack, but that is my theory
8:00 this is exactly why they chose jack black
Can you really equate Steve to human density? I mean a human body floats on water, Steve sinks.
My theory is that minecraft sea water doesn't have salt in it to make steve float and what makes more sense is that salt doesn't even exist in minecraft.
@@alexandrearmandine8845Objection, salt does exist in minecraft, specifically in education and bedrock edition. So maybe java oceans and bedrock oceans are different?
@@alexandrearmandine8845 but still, salt or not, humans float in water, like if you go swim in a lake, will you just sink or do you bop at the surface?
Ummm he is nearly 740 pounds. Bro is not floating.

I just love the sibling like rivalry that Tom and Santi share.

"That equates to each pixel having a volume of 201.23 cm^3. [...] how many of these pixel-cubes steve is made out of to get his total volume"

15:55 bro really having a revenge ark right now 💀😅
8:40, dont ask how they found that out... 💀
Also I just happened to know that
I feel like its worth mentioning that a mace is still useful (in irl terms) without the flying slam - its concussion/impact based damage style penetrates armor where swords may struggle
But then againts IRL
8:05 i never seen that coming
AYOOOOOOO
9:15 This is just disrespectful.
ahaha
Steve got Yamchaed! Quick, someone get him a senzu!
What about if steve transfer ALL of his knetic energy to the mace at the point of impact as a "magic" effect maybe gain from the materials that it is made? The effect IS something that is activated by a action not a passive
return to game theory roots, do a video (or short) on how light villager is in smash to be carried by 2 balloons!
11:56 he can hold blue ice(19.3 tonnes, round to19) a stack is 1216, a full sulked is 32832, imagine a shulker full inventory actually a full inventory is 37 so 1214784 tonnes, 1339070 American tons, and its way off even if the math is correct because i rounded
In creative you can copy chests with blocks in in them. You can do that 128 times and then the data becomes to much. And you can have an inventory of shulkers with stacks of the chests. This number is so big that there isn't any calculator that can calculate it. It's the mass of multiple universes(Steve build different)
@@ПресиянПърванов there's no calculator, but I'm sure someone with enough patience doing veeeerrrry long form multiplication could do it!
15:31 out of context this is a WILD statement 😭😭💀
Since Minecraft is a world with magic, what if the heavy core’s magical ability is converting all the kinetic energy of the user and transferring it into the enemy, including the internal organs. So even the organs stop moving and don’t try to keep going. Plus you didn’t have to put into consideration how high a human could survive a fall because we already know Steve can already survive a fall of just under 24 blocks.
So, to summarize, Santi stole Tom's diamonds on the server
During the video I kind of just randomly realize that the Minecraft mace is probably the epitome of human slander. The heavy core is most likely an incredibly advanced piece of machinery to power something the size of a mountain. And yet hear we the player are, we attach it to a stick and hit stuff with it...
Humans really are something...
Also like somebody else said the breeze rods in the handle are probably why you survive.
the best thing to come from mats retirement has been the eternal beef between tom and santi
16:52 nice evil laugh tom
Imagine doing all that climbing and prep to go crashing down into the enemy to destroy him and the planet...only to miss and die
@@tkn2863 lol
14:46
...Tom, Is this a villian arc?
i miss when i thought having a diamond axe was more op then the diamond sword, making it the most broken weapon in minecraft
17:00 is bro good
Nah Tom's even more unhinged than Mat
@@Cøppersstuff_YT yeah, he's like cackling 😭
The fact that Tom said that the mace is the most broken weapon just as my phone fell on the floor and cracked, really _cracked_ me up
I wonder how much force the wind burst enchantment would need to have to propel Steve BACK upward several meters at that velocity.
My headcannon is that since Steve can carry shulkerboxes filled with diamond blocks, his arms can absorb all the impact returning from the mace. You need to take into account that the point of contact with the target and thus the burst returning from the mace is Steve's hands, such a force is strong enough to negate the velocity he gathered up until then and land softly.
If anything the power of powdered snow with a carpet above it or a water block is an even more interesting case...
Absolutely living for the Tom and Santi rivalry 😂
Steve: "Now I am become death, destroyer of wardens"
12:26 accurate, my mom read a news story about a woman who fell 40 feet off a cliff and survived with minimal damage.
This made her pretty mad since she had fallen three feet into the neighbor's lawn, broken four ribs and bruised a lung.
from 14:38 to 17:04, I am going to guess this is Tom's revenge for Santi calling him a "foreign body".
Also, a Minecraft world is much larger than the Earth, meaning it would probably take an even greater distance than that to destroy it.
15:40 yes the mace can create an atomic bomb
7:50 well that would make sense as the gravity on the minecraft earth is much stronger and considering that steve is taller than the average hight its safe to assume he'd be way heavier (mainly due to gravity pulling him down multiplying his mass)
Same would happen to other planets
This is why when whales beach they often die fast as no living creature can get to that size unless its in a lower gravity area like space,other planets and technically water (i say water as when you swim in it it feels like you have no weight and are like in zero G, that is if you know how to swim)
From this we also could probably figure out the density of the air as we can see how fast the blocks fall
15:45 isn't that the castle Pearl and Grian built a few years back?
No not quite. Also I thought that was just grian...
15:40 THAT'S NOT A MACE THAT'S A NUKE
Do do do, do do do 14:21 dodo do, do do do
???
Nice theory
I love the Minecraft theory’s ngl. They seem so accurate
2:14 WE FINALLY GOT TO SEE THE BACK OF THE LOGO
Hmm, I think it stands to reason that if Steve is so much denser than any human being, his bones are muscles are much stronger and thus the damage is tolerable. And if I'm not mistaken, the 7 blocks fall is enough that you take fall damage. Non lethal, but damage nonetheless. Then we bring up the fact the mace is made with drops from a creature that manipulates air. Perhaps the mace comes with a built-in spell that gives you feather falling effect, *if you hit it right,* that is.
The breeze rods could slow down the fall. Since wind charges are made from breeze rods, and wind charges give a big air burst once it hits a block or entity. The breeze rods could be the condensed less powerful version that allows a small burst, but enough to save your fall damage, but only when you hit someone, like the wind charge.
Me: wonder what happened to game theory I use to watch
Me watching: …………
7:48
Makes sense since steve can down a whole chicken
Bro did Santi dirty every chance he got, someone ought to count the times Santi died in this vid.
No joke if this came out 2 days earlier I would have gotten a 100% on my science quiz
"...163 times the length of the observable universe..."
Would be really embarassing to mess up the timing on the mace strike at that point, wouldn't it?
7:56 for Steve's mass just use Jack Black's 😂
Underrated comment 💀
Anyone notice he killed santi in the mace demonstration in 3:37?
9:48 this statement isn’t actually more accurate. In a physics sense deceleration doesn’t exist, only acceleration in the opposite direction (often denoted as negative acceleration)🤓🤓🤓
although it’s important to note that negative acceleration does not necessarily equal “slowing down” since it can also mean acceleration in a certain direction. Gravity is often said to be -9.8 m/s^2 because down is considered to be the negative direction
I really want to call you a nerd but this info is actually cool...
This is conflicting to a degree that has never been reached before... Anyways, cool story bro!
I love these science based theories! They’re the reason I first subscribed, so it’s great to see Tom has kept making them
so we ARENT going to talk about the minecraft movie trailer, theorists?
we don't talk about that trailer
The trailer that shall not be named
We can't let them ruin one of the best games ever like this
That's for Lee to cover on Film Theory, if he wants to

5:37 very demure very mindful
5:37 very demure very mindful
16:13 Nooooooo i love math
I realized something; wouldn't it change when Steve falls? I mean, Tom only calculated Steve's velocity, and didn't do any mathematics on the Mace itself. I mean, isn't the Mace the thing that deals all that damage, not Steve himself? It's just what I think though, but think about it; Steve falls at 10,553.6 N, buts that's only Steve, not the Mace.
8:35 If you are wondering how they figured that one out, if the discovery was made pre 1945, it was really messy and gory
5:24 shameless plug but idc lorefi is cool
Don’t forget
How heavy is the heavy core
How heavy is a breeze rod
Make another theory with wind burst
wind burst is just magic
15:25 I love the idea of someone climbing two thirds of the way up Mount Everest and then jumping off and slamming the ground with the force of a nuclear bomb.
I have a theory for a MORTY episode: It's about a mobile game called zombie catchers, where you catche zombies and squeeze them into drinks to sell to your costumers. In the game you are an alien (in earth) working for a union of zombie catchers ( who are also all aliens). My point is that this is a game about comperate greed plantetary take over and deadly expiriments on the human race only to gain, power and money. Throut the game and it's levels there are clues adout that previous theory, aliens turn humans into zombies (probably in storage tanks) but on escaped and caused a zombie pandemic on earth ( as tolded by zombie boss dialog). You can check the game yourselfs or playthrous of it, if want, I think it is an intersting theory. ( but I don't know if it is a hypothesis)
Dang, i played that game and all i know Is "GRIND UP THE MONEY, WE NEED MORE MONEY FOR LEVEL 15"
3:10 The thing is not everything can be potential. For example, if you are holding the ball the energy is kinetic since no human can stay perfectly still without practice. That's is one of Newton’s laws an object in motion stays in motion until an external force stops it. That being said if we are talking about it with the gravity and motion itself this is exact. Wow im a nerd
Not a nerd just well educated👏🏾
newton's law is not the best reasoning for why a stationary object (assuming a frame of reference where it can be considered stationary) has kinetic energy. a better, more generalized reason is the fact that the atoms that make up the ball/humans/anything have inherent kinetic energy. the amount of kinetic energy objects have due to interactions of atomic particles on this magnitude has no significant bearing on their physical behavior on the scale of meters
likewise and as a side note, we hold the assumption that the projectile (mace + player) is released from rest, and even slight differences in the release velocity (say it were released 0.001m/s instead of at 0m/s) have a slight but insignificant bearing on the resultant calculations of force being made in the video
@Iemontine. I feel that is just going a little technical but that is true. By the way just want to clarify this is not in the game. Just saying it not assuming you meant that.
@@king_T0ny atoms are not in minecraft. neither are real physics. of course i was talking about reality
7:38 Steve doesn't have the same density as a regular human
lol i love how much the intro feels like a minecraft version of mythbusters XD
bro is literally the definition of "explain your answer".
bro. my brain hurts after this. I understood most of this but the fact of deceleration and finding the force of the stop made me think twice. This is also educational so it is a good video to watch to in school and get away with.
Welcome to Game Theory
So wait, if steve's height is 32 pixels tall and 1.875 meters. Then how does a 16 pixel tall block be 1 meter?
pixels in minecraft arent always uniform, especially for mobs.
For example the withers heads have smaller pixels then the rest of its body
