    don't forget the other oldest trap in the book: Press Alt + F4 for free diamonds
  • @alexniklaus6216
    i will forever remember the idiot trap as the one that Jerma thought was going to spin.
  • @PonyCraft
    >"When players discovered Iron Doors" Man that takes me back, when things were added and not everything was announced. Such a magical time for Minecraft.
  • @koshkamatew
    The traps of our childhoods, when we used to trap our friends using these in pocket edition, console editions and early java. Those were the days
  • I love how aggressive he is towards players who fell for the iron door trap
  • Ah yes the good ol times where a chest opening can lead to falling in lava
  • @dracula8791
    Very interesting traps, but man do I wish those trapped chests looked normal... such a shame
  • @a_angry_bunny
    The "idiot trap" really was an og trap that I use to see all the time but now haven't seen in almost a decade. I used to get PTSD whenever I saw a iron door because people got very creative in disguising this trap. You would think this trap would be pretty easy to spot, and most were, but some creative people were really dedicated to using this trap or at least something very similar to it.
  • @andrasstaub5286
    2:30 Torches still have this "feature" you just have to place sand on top of a torch, not putting a torch underneath falling sand, this mechanic didn't change a bit. It works the same now as it did back then.
  • @nettr_t.m.k.g.
    I love that Mojang did add a trap block in the past update: the Powdered Snow. It shows that Mojang is still thinking of those people out there who enjoy setting up traps and figuring out new traps that they can add to Minecraft. Edit: Yeah, there are actually a lot of new traps coming out so Mojang really hasn't forgotten about how the community love making traps. Edit #2: Okay, there is a lot more Minecraft traps that I didn't think off the top of my head.
  • @WVER-gc2fs
    I feel the deep dark-related blocks are going to lead to a rise in new traps once it's out
  • One of my favorite traps was used in a final fight during a german event called Varo. McExpert used stacked tnt carts hidden underneath the battleground that were remotely triggered by updating a dirt block with a hoe. It was designed to launch his enemies far enough into the air to kill them with fall damage.

    8:37 I knew Etho invented the sand signs trap, but I didn't know that Grian invented the tnt version, kinda apt now that they're both playing on Third Life
  • @stfuyfc69420
    I remember when pocket edition didn't have redstone and players would make crazy huge adventure and puzzle maps that ran off of signs and torches to activate certain things
  • @peaksuperset454
    7:41 I like how TheMisterEpic just yeets himself into the void and regrets it one second later
  • @ganii1804
    thank you for including jerma's clip on the idiot trap. truly a reminder on how it still remains effective
  • @jasonso2056
    Traps have really come a long way. We've gone from placing pressure plates leading to TNT on the drop in a path to things like observer traps with TNT minecarts that are usually an instakill, traps that utilize game mechanics such as bed wake-up positions, and more.
  • The portal and bed trap is the scariest one, you wouldn't really know it's there and you would be able to escape it, anarchy server really build different
  • @Vortexiiixii
    Back then in MC: Pocket Edition, there's no redstone, so we have to improvise by using sand, cactus and torch. That was an old style of using redstone. I discover it when I download some maps for MCPE and find how did they do the sand trick door.
