🌳 Tree Planting Initiative and Minecraft Lore

The script begins with the host reflecting on his influence on viewers to punch trees in Minecraft, but shifts focus to a tree planting initiative inspired by YouTuber Mr. Beast and engineer Mark Rober. Their goal is to raise $20 million to plant 20 million trees by 2020 in partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation. The host encourages viewers to donate, emphasizing that every dollar will result in a tree planted. The segment transitions into a discussion about Minecraft's 'lost lore,' specifically the origins and behaviors of zombie pigmen, which are suggested to be connected to the game's villagers and creepers due to early design choices and coding errors. The host sets out to explore how these creatures fit into Minecraft's broader narrative.

🔍 Unraveling the Zombie Pigmen Mystery

In this paragraph, the host delves deeper into the lore of Minecraft, focusing on the zombie pigmen's behavior and their connection to the nether and overworld. The script discusses how zombie pigmen spawn from pigs struck by lightning, suggesting a link to normal pigs, and their psychic-like connection when attacked. The host uses new information from Mojang's 'Minecon' livestream about the upcoming 'nether update,' which introduces the piglin—a new civilization in the nether—and the piglin's hostility towards wither skeletons, hinting at a historical conflict. The host weaves these clues into a theory about the pigmen's origins and their transformation into the creatures they are today.

🍄 The Impact of Nether Wart on Pigmen Evolution

The host explores the hypothesis that the pigmen's diet of nether wart in the nether has led to their unique characteristics, such as their psychic link and fire resistance. Drawing parallels to real-world fungal networks, the host suggests that the pigmen's diet has transformed them into a networked species with enhanced immune systems. The theory also posits that the nether wart's magical properties could explain the pigmen's longevity and their zombified state, as well as their use of golden swords found in the nether fortresses, which were left behind by the ancient builders. The host presents a comprehensive theory that ties together the pigmen's history, their hostility, and their physical attributes.

so plus minecraft theory had me doing a

lot of tree punching and have no doubt

that me teaching you how to punch down a

tree like you do in Minecraft inspired

tens of thousands of you loyal theorists

out there to try it for yourself

mowing down saplings faster than an

overeager lumberjack why today I want to

start the episode by make some men's

theorists it's time to stop the punching

and start the planting my friend Jimmy

yep may have heard of him he runs a

channel called mr. beast is a youtuber

that's looking to make a difference yes

they know that mr. beast alongside

another friend of mine the incredibly

smart mark Rober are currently working

to raise twenty million dollars in order

to plant 20 million trees by 2020 it's a

very numerically sound thing anyway it's

in honor of Jimmy hitting 20 million

subscribers which you know good for him

not jealous of that or anything but

anyway I'll let Jimmy and Mark explain

for themselves we went through a bunch

of different options on how to pull this

off and eventually settled with working

with the Arbor Day Foundation they're

the largest most well-respected

nonprofit for planting trees and we got

them to agree that for every $1 we raise

they would plant one tree that literally

means if someone donates $3 three more

trees will exist in the world than if

they didn't it's pretty incredible right

so if you would like to be a part of

this massive movement to make the world

just a little bit greener a donation

link to the fund is in the top line of

the description a hundred percent of

your donation goes directly to the Arbor

Day fund and every dollar is one more

tree in the ground if everyone who

watches this video gives a dollar well I

don't know how many people will watch

this video but you know it's not a hard

math problem to solve it is literally

multiplying by one so I trust you to be

able to do the math in your head anyway

with that being said and us making a man

for all the trees that we punch down

it's time to talk

zombie pigs

hello Internet welcome to game theory

we're gotta be honest I'm still icing my

knuckles after last week today we're

continuing our deep dive exploration

into the lost lore of Minecraft by

looking at what is in my opinion the

strangest part of the universe the

zombie pigmen and for me to call him out

as the strangest is saying a lot

considering this is also a world full of

living snowmen and laser shooting

pufferfish maybe it wouldn't be so

strange if this was a mob that was only

a bipedal Pig creature that lived in a

double toothpicks but no it has to be a

zombified bipedal Pig living in a double

toothpicks that also carries around a

butter sword for reasons and also also

has no non zombified versions of itself

left anywhere on the planet now that is

a weird collection of attributes and if

we're being 100% honest it's probably

because their origins are pretty bizarre

tall human-like pigs have been kicking

around as an unused idea in Minecraft

since the very beginning a Minecraft

user first came up with the idea for

Pigman way back in 2010 and the game's

creator notch almost used them as the

game's villagers a year later it didn't

happen and in 2012 not revealed in the

documentary minecraft the story of

mojang that the games signature creature

the creeper was also born out of

awkwardly tall pig monsters well I mean

the creepers were a mistake I don't have

any modeling programs to do the models

and I accidentally made an toll instead

of log so it was like a total thing with

four little feet and that's became the

creeper what's supposed to be a pig so

if I were to guess the zombie pigmen

exists and are connected to creepers

villagers and normal pigs purely because

of a sequence of happy accidents coding

errors and scrapped ideas that got

eventually made into cannon but that's

the real story for why zombie pigman are

probably in this game what we are

interested in is the fictional story

how can these creatures possibly fit

into the shockingly deep and

surprisingly cohesive lore of Minecraft

that we've been building over the last

couple of episodes how do you fit undead

pigs from eg double hockey sticks into a

tale about an ancient civilization of

long-lost builders gotta be honest this

one started as a I have no idea how

we're gonna explain this but by the end

of my research

pretty solid case here friends to start

piecing together the lore of the zombie

pigmen we first have to look at their

in-game behavior for clues now obviously

these creatures are most commonly

associated with nether but they can on

very rare occasions appear in the

overworld when lightning strikes within

four blocks of a pig a zombie pigman

will suddenly spawn that immediately

tells us that these two creatures are in

some way connected that the Pigman at

least at one point in their history were

related to normal everyday pigs we also

know that the Pigman share some form of

psychic link no that might seem absurd

to say but their hostile behavior

patterns confirm it attack one zombie

pigman and somehow all the others within

a massive radius will become aggressive

and converge on Steve and it's not

because they're hearing their attacks

friend since the sounds they make are

relatively quiet and everyone is still

aggressive even if that attack happens

in a completely sealed off closed box

that should deaden the sound to any

outside listeners the immediacy and

aggression of their attack can only mean

that they're linked in some way and

lastly it's also important to note that

they don't begin as hostile they only

turn hostile when they've been attacked

so under normal circumstances they

technically have nothing against Steve

it's only one Steve becomes aggressive

that they suddenly have a reason to

defend themselves this admittedly gives

us a lot to work with but it's still

just a bunch of loose threads without

something to tie it all together any

theory that I would craft to try and

explain it all would be missing that

linchpin of evidence that anchors the

narrative but then came this year's mine

come the Mojang team's annual

interactive livestream all about the

Minecraft franchise complete with

discussions about upcoming features big

world premiere announcements and lots of

other stuff this is gonna look weird but

you can't hit hello gotta juice that

sweet sweet watch time and this year

between gooey hands and whatever this

was

we received a ton of new information

about what changes are rolling out into

the Minecraft world over the next couple

of months these honey blocks target

blocks but of all the new content it was

the changes coming in minecraft one

point

the nether update that really caught my

attention specifically the new pig Lin

civilization zombie pigman are no more

pig Lin's

and zombie pig Lin's are here to stay

pig Lin is actually what we called the

pig man now the pig Ling is almost like

a new civilization you know that we add

to the nether but there was one detail

about this mob in particular that caught

my attention they are actually hostile

towards the player they also don't like

wither skeletons they don't like wither

skeletons from writing all of these

episodes I gotta say that so much of

piecing together this game's story

relies on picking apart spawn conditions

and hostile behavioral patterns like in

any good story those sorts of details

are telling you the relationships

between our main characters as it were

and so hearing Jeb call out the

hostility towards one particular mob

really stood out to me especially since

as we established during our episode on

the wither the wither skeletons are most

likely the remains of the ancient

builder there are plenty of reasons as

to why but I'm not gonna rehash them

here you've just watched that video if

you're interested but for the pig Lin's

to act violently towards wither

skeletons aka the ancient builders that

was the last detail that I needed

there's hostility between these two

groups something happened long ago

between these two civilizations and it

hasn't been forgotten even long after

our old civilizations have largely died

off so let's start putting all these

pieces together shall we we know that

the ancient builders started in the

overworld and at some point they created

a nether portal and started to explore

down there we know this based on the

chests and the fortresses that exist

down in the nether that could really

have only been built by them now here is

where the piglet is coming at some point

the builders brought their pigs with

them into this hostile environment again

we know this based on that lightning

strike evidence pigs and zombie pig

lines are connected and yet there are no

pigs in the nether meaning that they

must get

started in the overworld now there's two

possible reasons for the builders to do

this the first one is simple food the

nether up until the announcement of the

new piglet beasts mob also coming with

update 1.6 has it had a reliable source

for food but it's also the food sourcing

that are actually so when you get your

food you can't just have like it pretty

the farm instead you need to find this

scary aggressive pickling beast and get

the food from there as such any

explorers looking to make a long journey

to explore and forage in the area would

need to bring a dedicated food source

like say their stable of pigs bring them

down to the nether leave them there and

boom you suddenly have pig like

creatures in a place where they have no

business being option two for why the

pigs would be down there is honestly a

bit darker it could very well explain

the hostility that exists between these

two groups consider for a second if you

had opened a portal to somewhere some

other dimension you don't really know

are you just gonna hop through of course

you're not you're gonna test it most

likely you're gonna test it on some sort

of animal and believe it or not but pigs

are often the ones being used as human

standings for large-scale scientific

experiments because of their similar

organ size and decay rates so to see

whether things on the other side of that

portal or safe maybe the ancient

builders dropped their pigs on through

sacrificing a few of them in the name of

science either way pigs are brought to

the nether and I don't know about you

but that would definitely give me a

reason to hold a grudge against the

people who brought me there be they

human or their undead wither skeleton

forms

it also helps explain the wishy-washy

aggressive feelings they have toward

Steve zombie pigmen aren't aggressive

towards Steve because he's not the one

who brought them there on the other hand

pig Lin's are now aggressive towards

Steve because hey he's a descendant of

that ancient race of builders so that

explains how a pig like species would

get into this hostile supernatural

environment and why they might be mad at

the wither skeletons but obviously it's

skimming over a few teeny tiny details

that might also need to be explained

like how they became locking sword

wielding psychic warrior zombies that's

a pretty big logical leap to make their

rights

yeah but believe it or not it's one that

can be completely explained via

netherwart remember what I said about

the nether not having much food well

that's gonna be true for the animals

down here too I mean really what would a

pig eat down there crops require water

it's simply not possible to place water

down in the nether as such the only

thing that they're gonna be able to eat

down there is nether wart but if that

were truly what the builders were

feeding their primary food source you

would expect them to harvest it right

swell would you know it but if you look

at the essential elements of another

fortress those places that were

constructed by the ancient builders as

their home away from home as they

explore the hostile underworld

you see bridges a lava well room and

surprisingly nether wart Gardens Gardens

placed there to harvest the only crop

that could be grown in such a hostile

landscape so we know that the builders

were indeed harvesting the stuff but

then why is nether warts so important

here well we also know that the

Minecraft universe is one where you

quite literally are what you eat in our

Enderman video I linked the ancient

builders being forced to eat the ends

native crop of Korus fruit with them

slowly obtaining the plants

teleportation abilities and well yes

that was admittedly just speculation we

don't even have to go into the realm of

Furies to prove this one ladies and

gentlemen I present to you the mushroom

a cow mushroom hybrid that only spawns

in mushroom field biomes aka

places where cows are consuming a diet

primarily filled with mushrooms their

milk is mushroom stew their bodies are

covered with the stuff but we know at

their core they began as regular cows

since when you shear them clean it drops

its mushrooms and transforms back into a

normal bovine again so if pigs in the

nether were indeed subsisting off a diet

entirely made of nether wart there's a

likelihood we could see some of that

plants traits carry over into this

animal now here's the thing about nether

wart even though I just called it a

plant it looks and acts very much like a

fungus nether

work grows through four stages with the

middle two stages looking nearly

identical it's a process that very

closely resembles the life cycle of a

typical mushroom netherwart

is known as nether stalk in the code

just like many fungi are composed of the

fruit body on top and the stalk

underneath it doesn't need sunlight to

grow and instead thrives in the warm

dark environment of the nether just like

a real-world fungus in fact many of the

Minecraft wiki's equate nether wart to

the real-world puffball fungus which

although different in color does indeed

match in terms of design and

reproductive behavior and all of this

matters because a diet of nether wart

would explain how the zombie pigmen all

share a psychic connection you see when

we think of a fungus we immediately

think of the mushroom that's on top but

in reality most of a fungus body is made

up of super thin threads known as

mycelium and the crazy thing is that

these threads can go for dozens upon

dozens of feet connecting up with a

bunch of other plants and fungi so much

so that researchers are now calling this

an underground Internet of sorts a

literal fungal Network that sharing

information across plants root to root

extending for miles a wood wide web if

you will fungus expert hall statements

calls it Earth's natural Internet in a

2008 TED talk and that fungal connection

could very easily carry over into our

pigs just like we see with mushrooms

eating that nether wart fungus could

slowly transform our overworld pigs into

an interconnected network of big fungus

hybrids and that's not all

fungal networks also boost their host

plants immune systems simply plugging

into the mycelial Network makes plants

more resistant to diseases now look at

the nether wart it's the essential

ingredient for awkward potions the base

for over 90% of the game's magical

abilities you know what else is a key

ingredient in potions glowstone dust

which is also found down in the nether

potions mind you that bestow the drinker

all sorts of magical properties from

greater defenses to create our swiftness

to most importantly fire resistance fire

resistance just like we see with the

zombi piglets were immune to fire and

lava damage in fact this theory may even

explain why we only see zombified

versions of the Pigman and not normal

style Pigman the new Pigman race

excluded obviously the ancient race of

builders came to the nether a long time

ago and when their society collapsed so

did the coming and going from the

overworld as such no new pigs were being

brought into the nether meaning that

everyone we see down here has been down

there for centuries at least that my

friends is some old rancid pork so how

could a pig survive for that long again

the nether warts magical properties one

of its key uses is making potions of

healing it could be that the Pigman

literally cannot die from natural causes

or just like the wither skeletons won't

walk back to life with the strange soul

saving properties that exist in the

nether heck this theory may even explain

why they only carry gold swords look at

the types of loot that spawn inside the

nether fortress chests the ones

containing supplies brought into the

nether by the ancient builders the only

weapons that we ever see spawn in those

chests are golden swords that's it

that's what they brought in and stored

in those chests and since these are pigs

at heart with no crafting ability all

the items that you find in there like

iron ingots and diamonds are completely

useless to them the only thing that they

can use to defend themselves is just

what they found laying around in their

natural environment left behind by their

former masters the ancient abandoned

golden swords so just look at all the

questions this theory answers it

explains how pigs got into the nether

why they'd be hostile to wither

skeletons and have complicated feelings

towards us

as a descendant of the builders it

explains why we see nether wart

purposely grown in the nether fortresses

and how a diet of nether wart could

produce a psychic link of sorts between

all the pigment in the region that

nether wart combined with the local

glowstone because let's face it pigs

elite or at least try anything could

also explain their fire resistance

there's zombification and we even have

ourselves an answer as to why they would

all have golden butter swords and only

golden

swords honestly the only question I can

answer about this mob is why they stand

on two legs not a hundred percent sure

could be evolution Higgs learning to

walk upright to use their hands to

defend themselves in the violent nether

while also wanting fewer body parts

touching the hot netherrack possible but

I do think that we're onto something

with this theory something that I

suspect Mojang might just want to be

cluing us in on because if we go back to

more of that mind confluence as they

reveal the new biomes for the nether one

they spend a good amount of time on is

the nether wart the forest and what do

they explicitly show us wandering around

and they're the only mob mind you that

they show us in this preview a zombie

pigmen wandering through the woods and

home amongst the food and landscape that

helped to make him what he is he's a pig

ripped from his comfortable life in the

overworld and brought down into the

depths of hack to be used for the

slaughter of the ancient people but

through random chance and a whole lot of

fungus becoming the start to a rival

civilization bound for greatness and

then turning into zombies but hey that's

just a theory Oh

game theory thanks for watching just a

reminder to wave your diamond pickaxe

over that subscribe button we got more

minecraft theories on the way next time

hopefully about the villagers and illah

Jers though underwater fortresses are

really interesting to me right now I'll

see you all for something different next

week
