So, the other day I made a video trying to find out what 2 million
would look like in Minecraft, to celebrate me hitting 2 million
subscribers on YouTube and the answer is, it looks pretty crazy.
I tried out a whole bunch of different methods; all of them looking very impressive.
But it also got me asking the question - I wonder how many total items I could fit inside a Minecraft chest.
You see, I really enjoy storage in Minecraft
I build a lot of storage systems because I like to store large quantities of items
I often have very high speed automatic farms running
and you need to make sure that you have plenty of space
for all of the stuff that is going to be flowing into them. But what if I had just one
single double chest.
Just one.
How many items could I fit inside? Just as a quick disclaimer before we begin
this is for survival minecraft only, otherwise I could fill a chest with items and then put those inside chests
Which go inside chests, which got inside chests and so on and so forth it would get completely ridiculous and exponential.
We're not going to be doing that today anyway. Now that we've got that all the way, non stackable items is
54.16 stackable items such as ender pearls and things like that
864 and for all the regular items such as diamonds, dirt, stone everything like that you can fit
3456 items inside a double chest so there we go.
I hope you enjoyed this video, and I'll catch you in the next one. No of course
I'm joking. We can go much, much, deeper than that, and that's mainly thanks to these guys, the shulker boxes
Thanks to shulker boxes
We can now store items inside shulker boxe and then store those shulker boxes inside chests, meaning that we have a lot more storage space
So let's do the math on this one inside a shulker box you can fit up to
1728 items and inside a regular double chest you can fit 54 different shulker boxes
Which means they in total you can get 93,312 items
inside a single double chest
Ninety three thousand!
Almost 100 thousand items
are currently sitting inside this 2x1 area
I mean, that's completely bonkers!
But we can take it one step further than that by converting all of our diamonds into diamond blocks
That way each one of these stacks represents
576 diamonds which means that inside the shulker box we've got 15,552 diamonds
And thats a, thats a lot of mining sessions, I mean that would be you would have to be an incredibly dedicated
Minecrafter to have this quantity of diamond blocks
But you'd have to be an even more dedicated
Minecrafter to fill up this double chest because in total we have got eight hundred and thirty-nine thousand,
eight hundred and eight diamonds
Inside here. All of them stored within their diamond blocks which are being stored within shulker boxes
Which are then being stored within this double chest. Eight hundred and thirty nine thousand items!
That's just crazy, but and you probably should have expected this we can take this one step further and that's all thanks to
the golden nugget. You see golden nuggets and iron nuggets are interesting because they have a
two-level crafting system. If we just place all of these inside the crafting bench you can see we can make one stack of golden ingots
and then we can use those golden ingots to create seven gold blocks.
But then if we want to get our gold bars back
then we just chuck the golden blocks back into the crafting grid and there we go. We're back at sixty-four
gold ingots, and then we can place these inside again, and there we go we have nine stacks of gold nuggets back.
Which means that all of those gold nuggets are being stored inside seven blocks of gold.
So, using that logic
Inside each stack of these golden blocks we have got 5,184 golden nuggets.
Which already is quite an impressive number
But that means inside the shulker box we have got 139,968 golden nuggets
Now that is incredibly impressive. I'm already impressed by this, but obviously if we transfer that over to the double chest
We've got 54 different shulker boxes inside here all of them containing those 139,968
golden nuggets that means in total we have got 7,558,272
golden nuggets right there, we're looking at them right now
Just over seven and a half million items,
right here.
Inside that double chest.
So there is your answer. That is the most number of items that you can fit inside a double chest in survival Minecraft.
Now we had a little bit gold left over from that previous experiment
so I thought I'd glam myself up a little bit and
stand upon my golden throne for this final part of the video
Which is just a little bit of trivia about how much gold is actually inside that double chest. You see we currently have ninety-three thousand
three hundred twelve meters cubed stored inside that double chest which does beggar the question how on earth does it all fit? There must be
Some crazy tardis technology going on inside this thing, but also
how is it not falling through the floor? You see that would weigh an awful
lot, I mean 1 meter cubed of gold weighs 19 thousand 282 kilos.
Which means that inside that double chest we have 1 billion
799 million 241 thousand 984 kilos of gold.
That's a.. that's an awful lot. That thing weighs a lot it must be exerting a lot of pressure on the floor in fact it
Is it's exerting just under 9 billion Pascal's, so you would not want that thing landing on your foot.
But also, I mean, we have to ask it . Gold is worth quite a lot of money. In fact
It's 42 thousand 458 dollars per kilo at this point in time
those are the current gold prices, which means that inside this double chest
We're currently storing..
7.64 times ten to the thirteen dollars also known as seventy six trillion dollars.
Now if that's the case, I think I
think I'm going to be giving up YouTube for the time being I'm going to get myself a fleet of
private jets and we're never gonna touch down. We're just going to fuel them with money
I'm just going to throw money through into the engines and on that note it's time to end.
