This is a possibly pointless detail, but when you look from the enderman's eyes in spectator mode, the colors are reversed. So end stone looks like cobblestone.

*theory*: In regards to the ender mites, they might’ve been a catalyst for how the endermen ended up how they did. Some mites are known to infest foods, what if the ender mites infest the chorus fruit the ancient builders ate when they arrived to the end, mites are also known to give deseases to those infected, the ender mites could’ve passed on a desease that turned the ancient builders into ender men, could be a reason why they hate them so much

[@gabrielohrt1289]

I have something to say to you. I have seen Endermen activate Sculk Shriekers. Now if you watch Wifes theory on the Warden, he said that Sculk Shriekers were player activated, or person activated. So for Endermen Activating Shriekers might just prove your theory correct.

Came back after todays theory about the nether being frozen, the fact that the endermen only move soil and flowers (with no Steve intervention to give tnt) shows that these ancient builders that became twisted after ruining two dimensions have learned their lesson. While they cannot fix what they had broken, they can continue to move and make beautiful our overworld, planting flowers after teleporting hundreds of meters away.

[@dafilmqueen556]

That is such a wholesome idea 😍. Well, about as wholesome as it gets considering who we're talking about. Our poor tall dark and handsome creatures..(just love that joke from MatPat, that's how I'm gonna nickname the Endermen from now on)😂

[@Behemoth_00]

I have noticed something in game, I don't know if it was meant to be that way but I think it's something worth discussing about it: if you look at enderman through glass block, glass pane, iron bars, fences, doors and trapdoors, they won't attack you despite the fact that you see their faces. My theory here is that the enderman will only be triggered by you staring at them if your sigh isn't refracted or stopped by something, example: if you look at a window you see your reflexion a bit, which means your sight is reflected a bit by the window, meaning you don't FULLY see what's on other side of the window. So that means if your sight isn't fully focused on the enderman, they won't be triggered. Here's another detail that I can give to prove this: when an enderman are in front of you in your peripheral vision, (you don't see things distinctly in your peripheral vision, but you see them enough to know those things are here) they won't attack you unless you really stare at them, so enderman will only attack if your vision is fully focused on them, when you directly look at them with no obstacles between you and the enderman. But of course that's just a theory *A g a m e t h e o r y !*

[@joshuashaw2923]

Theory: Enders pearls are teleportation “glands” of storage (similar to the gallbladder) than endermen evolved to have in order to control the fruit’s property. They still eat the chorus fruit, but instead of immediately teleporting it stores the energy so they can use it themselves. The reason that some drop it while others don’t is because you, they player, might’ve damaged it while you were hitting them, and without Looting 3, there is NO way you’re going to be able to successfully not hit all 4 glands

[@M3SSRB]

Theory:chorus flowers weren't always in the end, after the builders entered the end and started to run out of food, they tried planting seeds, but instead of growing into a normal crop, it switched to chorus flower.

[@sfirro]

THE WITHER!! When you defeat the Wither, you get the achievement called "the beginning". The thing that was killing the people in the overworld was the wither! It is the beginning of the end. The beginning of people going into the end, being trapped there, turning into endermen and the beginning of the lore of minecraft. When they went inside the strongholds, while the Wither was kept outside, people still had the "sickness" (the wither effect), so they went into the End seeking something that could stop their sickness, and while they succeeded, they transformed into the endermen that we know today. The most skilled teleporters eventually managed to teleport to other dimensions, the overworld and the nether.

[@matematulji]

It makes sence, but there is one problem. If all the survivors ran to the End when the Wither was alive, then no-one could have killed it, so it should still be alive when we join the world, but it isn't

[@sfirro]

@@matematulji I think that over many years, the wither went back to the nether and turned the skeletons there to wither skeletons, exhausting its power and dissapearing. You can get the skulls (its "power") from the skeletons and summon it again.

[@matematulji]

@@sfirro i know about the skulls. That is very much possible

[@lilyescandon434]

What if Minecraft storymode was actually the past of Minecraft, back when there was civilizations. It goes along with your theory

[@bruhsauce644]

I think the wither returned to the nether and fell victim to it’s own power, it withered away and all of it’s remains are left inside of wither skeletons and such beings

[@michaeijcaboose2037]

Theory: The endermen are picky about the blocks they interact with because *those blocks* are the ingredients necessary to craft enderpearls. The player, obviously, doesn't have the capacity to follow such instructions (similar to end portals and enchanted apples), but the Ancient Civilization must've been so set on using this recipe that they still have the instinct to do it - saying things like "look for the eye" (Also see: Headcrabbed HL2 Combine Soldiers repeating lines and callouts that they often said) - and potentially picking up those blocks either out of a fruitless instinct or a deliberate effort to continue successfully making enderpearls. The end portals are partially filled because these endermen managed to put together a few eyes - which can also explain why only some are in active possession of pearls - but almost never completely fill it because it takes thousands of years for them to do so.

[@lelandharris9639]

Its cool to think that the Enderman pick up blocks that remind them of the overworld. Kinda adds a humanity side to them.

[@alanalirkani]

So I'm rewatching this series and just had a thought. MatPat makes a theory later about there once having been lots of ender dragons and the reason this last one was protected the way it was when our character arrives was to try to keep it alive so that it wouldn't be completely extinct. So what if the ancient builders that went to the End to escape what they were running from knew how to get out but didn't because they didn't want to kill off the last Ender Dragon?

One thing to note is that the endermen do get aggressive with the enderdragon if they’re attacked by it. Whether that’s because they’re not fully human anymore, or they know it’s not an ally, remains a mystery. Some detail worth noting I feel.

1.They have never gone to sleep after going to the end as well since you can't place beds in the end and beds are the only way to sleep in the game 2.They attack you when you look at them probably because they don't want you to see what they have turned into 3.The reason why they say look for the eye is probably because they want to be freed from the end

[@thomasriddle1952]

how exactly do you define "teleportation distance"

[@zyn_]

I'd guess its how far something can teleport

[@breadedbutterman5328]

This would explain the more friendly behavior from enderman... You know, if they wanted us to get the to the End using the ender pearls, they could easily give them to us. At least they have the decency to say "hello" to me and ask how I'm doing. Feels a lot worse knowing these guys were once an advanced civilization who we know murder for sweet, teleporty pearls!

[@GbemiAgboola-zi8uj]

my friend and i came up with a theory that both endermen and iron golems are ancient builders: Both are tall, both only attack when provoked and both can pick up poppies. We believe that iron golems are ancient builders that were captured by pillagers to make a killing machine, this is backed up by matpats theory that evokers attempted to create life. This backfired in the end and the iron golems went to the villagers. Iron golems attack endermen because they dont realise that those are there bretheren. Both endermen and iron golems are found in the same place in the dungeons dlc. What do you think of our theory?

[@dafilmqueen556]

It's a great one, and incredibly tragic too. I can't imagine how much pain that would be bearable when being shoved into an iron machine by crazed eyebrow shaved cultists..

Theory: they used human eyes for the portal. Since endermen ARE more or less humans according to this theory, their eyes will still be useful for the process. Where did they get the human eyes? I think that one’s pretty obvious…

1 question, how were the ancient builders able to build the end portal, if they needed eyes of ender which came from enderman. Since none of them have been to the end, there would be no way possible to craft them. Thanks for the video, I could tell you put a lot of effort and thinking into this :)

[@breadedbutterman5328]

MatPat had stated in this video that the Ancient Builders were an "advanced civilization," clearly having higher knowledge in the mining, crafting, and building of the Minecraft world. So, therefore, they probably discovered a way to construct an End portal, and the eyes of ender... somehow! I hope I've provided you with useful information, and at least cleared up some part of your question to make you think that me am smart.

[@fanaticplayz09]

@@breadedbutterman5328 i understand, so that means there are multiple ways to craft eyes of ender.

[@garinlieblich9059]

Another piece of evidence that points to this theory is the name of the chorus fruit in "pirate speak", which is a language option in base Minecraft (basically speaking pirate). Interestingly, chorus fruit is named "Tall ones' fruit".
