Livin like Minecraft
Iron is from the surface the dource came from iron bacteria (orange mud slime like) for surface…. is u mine them at underground its considered metal cuz its better iro n
and they said Minecraft wouldn’t help
Imagine turning a rock from the sky into the strongest tool that ever existed, while all of your friends are still using rocks and soft metals.
That sounds like the most ultimate flex.
Ironic.
you didnt dig your own mine…
hold up if you wanted to start in the metal age you should have started with copper!
I have been there for a field trip
so this series is basically a real life Minecraft tutorial
Where’s episode 5?
This is a very big and confusing TOOLCEPTION
Dude skipped the bronze age =p
I’m surprised that they gave you a yellow hat instead of white or grey
I’ve been to that mine!! So cool!
How to get iron:
1. Punch a tree
2. Make a pick axe
3. Mine some stone
4. Make a stronger pickaxe
5. Find coal and mine it
6. Find iron ore and mine it
7. Craft a furnace and smelt the iron.
I love this dude’s stuff. This is my second binge on his content..But I’ll never get over that accent. "Dounchaknoow"
he didn’t make his own helmet 🙁
Now can we mine some diamonds 😉

Minecraft
IN REAL LIFE! 😂
Are there other sizes of soda available in this state, or only Mini?
should have started off with an easier metal to smelt
You skipped copper and bronze age
Give him a break, guys. So what he didn’t dig his own mine. It would take him years to do that by himself
Do you have any people in Philippines 🇵🇭 who may engage in iron mining? Bcuz we have area in our palace which have iron deposits accordingly, it can last for even 30-50years of mining deposit of iron will not diminished. Or should mining company we could discuss with for the possible partnership. Hoping for a kind and positive response.
Thank you!.
Bro i love how he has like no accent EXCEPT for when he says minnesota😂😂
Hey I’ve been to the Soudan mine!
How to get iron: go down a pre-dug mine and get handed a chunk of iron ore. How did you go from knapping stone tools to extracting iron?
If your making cookies from scratch you can get flour from someone you don’t have to make it yourself, so stop complaining he didn’t mine his own stuff, that would have taken years also
To this day the freighters ply the great lakes carrying this ore from MN to the Ford Rouge foundry to manufacture automobile, et. al.
Stacy plays was in that mine
I went there in irl but I went to the labtory
I find this quite scary going real deep into the earth, this for me takes a lot of courage. :/
How do they even find iron? I mean it’s half a mile under the surface
What city in Minnesota? I’m in Rochester myself
Miner looks like Steve Jobs
Minecraft in real life.
I wouldn’t call meteorites pure iron. Elementary iron; yes. Pure? More often than not, no, it has a lot of contaminants.
That’s great and all if you want to start a corporation that mass produces iron, but how do you mine iron if you don’t have access to any metal. I want to know how you go from sticks and stones to metal!!! Do you chisel and smelt with wood, clay, and stone? How is it done? If all metal on Earth was re-deposited back into the ground or if you weren’t even on Earth hypothetically speaking, how would you start over? That’s what I want to know. Not these fancy metal machines helping you get more metal. I want zero metal to get metal. How do you do that??? Do you Bust out brittle ores with a wooden sledge? Do you steal salts from a volcano and blow up a vein? How do you get from step 1 of having no metal to step 2 of having metal??
I love Iron
Hope you get more views/subs! These videos are very inspiring!
The only way to make iron without access to a mine or bogs is to go to a river in an iron rich area, and pan out all the dirt until you have black sand. You melt that down with a bit of coal coke and limestone flux to make raw iron. You then carbodize it by slicing the iron thinly and burning it with graphite (or coal coke) and baking soda (or some other usable salt) in a semi-anaerobic environment, and hammer the carbodized iron back. together into a single billet to make steel.
All I can think about is minecraft.I also subbed!
You skipped the Bronze Age dummie
Nailed it!
Geddit? nail is made by iron
I keep imagining how terrifying it’d be to be trapped in a mine.
