Let's Make a Rocket Factory! - Hermitcraft 10

[@Articuris]

To add onto the bunker idea: they could not only have a view over the volcano, but source power or heat from it! It would help explain how they can keep going while being cut off from "civilisation" and the power grid

[@tracemolzon4525]

What gave it away for me was that you were alone. That much TNT would’ve brought spectators

[@emmyj22]

That was the tell for me too!

[@lyvaellaevans]

It is possible, had it been true, for Impy to wait and do it when he had the server to himself to intentionally avoid lagging out anyone else who might be on trying to record, etc.

[@DaeBenesse]

Me too!

[@kaleighcolford1979]

The thing that made me question was the lack of other hermits. An explosion that big figured someone would be spectating that.

[@lyvaellaevans]

Impulse: "I'm such a bad actor." *laughs* Pearl: "We just know you too well." Exactly! It isn't that you're a bad actor, Impulse. It is that some of us have watched enough of your Among Us and years of Minecraft content. None of us know you as well as Skizz, obviously, but we know you a bit. :) Love your face. :)

[@Im_Ebs]

Impulse thankyou for talking about your mental health. Been dealing with mine for 3.5 years with anxiety and hearing this helps. More of this please I'm sure many others appreciate it

[@nwouda3]

Thanks Impulse for just being you. Love your streams and your KZbin videos. You have such a positive impact on your community and I hope you know just how much better you have made this world by just being you!

[@tomc4132]

I’m of similar age to you impy and it seems like my body just can’t process junk food like it used too. I can’t really drink pop anymore and going thru the process of quitting it made me realize how much what I put in my body is affecting me. So I love when you drop little wisdom nuggets about health and your journey as we get older.

[@Fenalize]

I would LOVE GIGGS merch!!!GIGS Phasmo-themed merch!!!! Yes pleeeassse. Have a little ghost with the GIGGS crew on the shirt in one of those Goosebumps book cover styles. Omg I want it, I need it. I've never bought merch before but I would buy seven of those

[@Ponylove4650]

I watch and pause these videos throughout the day (rather than finishing it all in one sitting), and I came back and continued off at 2:32:25. Right before watching it, I was stressing about the new semester starting and I'm taking up a new course that's already got me pretty overwhelmed, so literally the first words I heard when I come back to this video are the ones I needed to hear right now. Thank you Impulse!

[@automaticdata]

I find it funny that Impulse thinks his actual reaction would be to roll back the server because him *not* immediately going "ooookay we need to roll this back" was the first give away for me.

[@ryguywest]

Yeah, lol bad acting I mainly didn't fall for it because If it was real your reaction would have been way different. First speechlessness, then denial, then realization, then a lot of cursing and a whole lot of apologies and anxiety.

[@elliehuebner9475]

I think what first tipped me off was the placement of the TNT. I said to my husband, "well that's not how impulse would normally do that....he's much more calculated than that." And to echo what the commenter said, I knew you would be devastated if one TNT got somewhere it shouldn't. You're very conscientious 😊😅 so as the evidence grew and grew I got less nervous and just waited for the shoe to drop 😊 so I think your balance was perfect. It was just ridiculous enough 😊

[@Matt43]

That gunpowder farm needs a shulker loader to increase the storage capacity

[@viktorjohansson4067]

I was fooled, screamed to the kids " QUICK, watch Impulses episode!!" until your reaction gave it away! 😂 was awesome! Thank you!

[@melissabyleveld355]

Same, I was sitting there watching like :o, but the voice did not match the destruction haha!

[@catrionaabram1788]

Love this peak behind the curtain of how you managed this ! Great episode loved the Troll ! 😂🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@patallinson7419]

I live on the mainland of BC and this is one of the most beautiful provinces in the country. I am glad you got to see such a great historic area. Love the trio of you, Skizz and Tango. The three hermusketeers. love you all

[@mandsbucci]

You guys should create a Hermitcraft store. That is always active. And whatever merch that sells, goes to that hermit. But keeping something there all the time and having specials could help everyone too

[@bearpawdgamr2785]

The bait and switch with the prank seriously got me, mainly because I completely forgot about mission possible for a half second! "good thing we didn't panic" button was not strong enough to stop my gut from clenching as you panned over the wreckage. Your bad acting still did the trick!

[@amandanye4087]

Thank you for a glimpse behind the curtain, I thought the prank was pretty good

[@Matt43]

Loving your content and the chapter mark to skip the intro when watching VODs and can't live chat

[@onlyhope021]

What gave it away to me is just a few moments before I watched his video I watched the vods and he did the song work work work all day which reminded me that Grian did 1 the exact same prank for hermit challenges so if he hadn't played that I may have gotten into it more and thought it was not a prank but it kind of gave it away to me😂

[@ryangentry2003]

It was really the sense of "Showing off the damage" that gave it away to me.

[@StarNanny]

My initial reaction was, “That’s a lot….”. Then, “…weird layout…wait🤔” 😂 Got me at first, true. 👍

[@Gingermycat]

I first thought you did it and kept thinking you did but also questioned it. Then when you said it was a prank I was like wow I'm slow 😂

[@mattlewandowski73]

As I watched, and you started showing the blast damage my first thought was well if this is not a backup test world, someone is going to be calling tango and saying "I need you to do an admin roll back (if imp does not already have admin privileges) you did not have any of the mountain crew present or any other visitors... I could not see you doing that big of a blast without some spectators. As you started revealing the carnage, it looked more and more staged as the blast extended in directions that did not make sense with the initial excavation plans. I stand by my original comment that there was either going to be a roll back or you where using a backup world. I will however admit I was not expecting the trolling to be because of one of the hermit challenges... I was expecting it to end with something to the effect of "Just kidding, we got together and dug over the last couple days and now we have a big hole. Soon we will start the top secret build project and it will be amazing, so stay tuned" as you do like to hype up upcoming projects.

[@AoALifelesss]

I like how every time I look over at the video all I see is Impulse staring directly into my eyes, it's terrifyingly funny. Love your vids and vods man hope things are smooth sailing!

[@hammerslap5639]

what told me it was fake was, why would you dig out the whole mountain, and then individually place enough tnt to completely fill it up

[@mattlewandowski73]

Might I suggest a sail awning over the pool to improve the water temps a bit. They are easy to DIY, but are not that expensive to have installed either depending on the area of coverage needed

[@lyvaellaevans]

I fell for it completely for the first few minutes. However, when the massive damage continued to be revealed, I knew it was too much to be real. Impy making a mistake is human, realistic for anyone. A mistake on that level, no way. Impy has too much experience in Minecraft, with redstone, with TnT. Is it possible he could underestimate the affected area and level of damage? Absolutely. To the degree that was shown in the video? No way. The other thing that brought in my skeptism after the first couple of minutes was Xisuma. He has pulled a couple pranks through the years where he has used a backup then eventually revealed. That being said, Impulse, you did a fantastic job, truly. The first few minutes, I literally sat here with my mouth hanging open and my brain screaming, "OMG Noooooo!" Regardless of how realistic it was or was not, it was fun. lol I absolutely loved the video. :) Fantastic job as always. Love your face. :)

[@ethandoingstuff1433]

I didn’t even consider that it was a prank until you kind of under-reacted to destroying everything. but even then, I was fooled until you were basically giving it away. It was great!

[@epikmb24]

I was reading comments while watching the video, which were clearly spoiling the fact that it's a prank, but I'm so dense that you still managed to trick me 😂

[@stuartbrennan5952]

It was the amount of tnt

[@lilmstreblegaming3687]

There’s no way he could have farmed that much. It was everywhere! Makes sense he says he replaced every stone ore with tnt.

[@galaxygamer3322]

what I do wwith the guest podcasts, is wait until part 2 is out, then watch both of them one after the other :)

[@Cozy.snowflakes]

I was wondering how long it took to blow up with fps. I could tell you were acting from watching you play among us & blood on the clock tower, from last season. I loved the prank! Such a good laugh from your video.

[@nicholashalom1632]

Blow up Magic Mountain? My man, the way you showed us in that video was NUKING the mountain.

[@Adriannakas]

You got me in the first half of the TNT mania, then you took a while to fix it… that’s what got me

[@moondustlisa]

I too can so relate on the introvert/anxiety, Impulse! I think it stems from being a little too sensitive, picking up on people's energy, which can and does effect us massively..... But put us in a room with good vibes people and you'll see a totally different person 🤷 go figure lol

[@Gingermycat]

Struggling to go to the gym is hard. It's more of a mind thing than a fitness thing. Just keep going even when you want to stay home! Keep going you got this!

[@wyw876]

The thing that tipped me off was the complete lack of dropped items from broken chests. Sure other explosions could've erased a lot of dropped items, but not all of them.

[@DarkRubicant]

Impulse I swear Mcdonalds has something addicting in their food too, I haven't had it in months but one bite and I'll be wanting it for weeks.

[@justcallmeness]

Haha i wasn't fooled at all...from the TNT placement and amount, to...well, you can't lie haha. Still fun.

[@ninjasuperman9538]

An alternate Incredibles type entrance into the bunker would be awesome. Have a lava curtain open up into the center

[@AnyKeyLady]

I was playing along as i have seen Grian and Doc did something similar. Our child cottoned on when last episode they were mentioning that you still had diamond gear and in this clip, they said how did he get netherite stuff in this episode if they were making tnt?

[@2501Aemeath]

Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving earlier because our latitude is further north, pushing harvest dates further back. :)

[@A-AronB]

Big Bada Boom. That is all.

[@LunealSky]

Honestly the biggest tell for me was the amount of damage dealt with the amount of tnt showed on camera

[@Paravetje]

Writing this as he's playing wordle, promise, haven't seen it yet. For guess 2 my guess is SIGHT. After what he guessed I would have went for OUGHT for guess 3. After his third guess my word OUGHT would still be possible, so I would still go for that for guess 4. YES! I got it! I got a woo!

[@yellibell6325]

I was definitely stressed out saying “please say this is really a test in a back up world!” I will say I was puzzled why you weren’t in total panic!

[@Monarchsfan02]

Talking about my homestate. I listened after

[@Matt43]

From Wikipedia: Washington Irving described "dough-nuts", in his 1809 History of New York, as "balls of sweetened dough, fried in hog's fat, and called dough-nuts, or olykoeks." These "nuts" of fried dough might now be called doughnut holes.

[@cindyandrew4382]

I kept wondering what happened to Skizz's portal! and 90% certain it was a prank cause it was SOOOO big!

[@sanablue]

I would absolutely love some Boomers Merch! I missed it the first time because I'm always way behind with watching the videos since I watch every Hermit and don't want to miss anything. Which works fine, but it means I often miss those limited time things :') So I would very much appreciate if those merch editions came back!! Plus, I earn more money now than i did back then, so I could actually buy more than one thing.

[@mrmadmanmark222]

No wonder I could never find 'Nen Bomb'.... Cuz he's a Dev now! lol

[@shuckLedurkins]

What gave it away was he didn’t ask permission to do it from anyone lmao

[@chew_1993]

Using uncontrolled tnt inside a ring of hours and hours of your friends’ hard work just didn’t strike me as a very “impulse” move.

[@benjaminnapper1317]

Had I not of just recently watched ethos let's play where he acted like he blew up his base, then I may have fell for it lol

[@timexgirl]

I really wanted just one hermit to panic and check the server.

[@RAMRAM7k]

it's the explosion impact on your door

[@jdbagley3]

could hear the smile in your voice so my wife and I knew it wasn't real. You're just too smiley. :)

[@Gingermycat]

Struggling to go to the gym is hard. It's more of a mind thing than a fitness thing. Just keep going even when you want to stay home!

[@MrTaskmaster1]

The thing that made me think it was fact was when you opened the ender chest and it was full of junk and not your normal setup. The stuff in the ender chest should have been safe.

[@user-xm1od9nb1m]

I was mostly listening to the video but I think it was good bc I actually belived you destroyed someones (or was it your own base first) base first but then slowly realized it was a prank before you said it was, seems like it was your intention 😅

[@RacoonProds]

We are literally born in discomfort, it's unavoidable.

[@Kaichannel612]

Sorry impy but your voice always gives you away. lol! You had me for a split second when I saw how big the explosion was. But when you were going around looking at all the damage, I could tell you weren’t genuinely sh*tting your pants haha. Which I know you would’ve if it was real!

[@relic.system]

I would have leaned into the prank as hard as possible, given you expose its a prank at the end of the video.

[@amyvanhaastert-hp7bt]

Anyone no any good redstone beginners for sugar cane farms for bedrock?

[@disturbed_puppy]

You and Skizz definitely give me high functioning ADHD vibes after listening to your podcasts. Skizz especially. Could be why you two liked drumming so much. Rudiments give you something to do with your hands.

[@emiliaolfelt6370]

I hope RedLegion is doing alright

[@TodDetre]

Please don't go to biggot chicken. (chick fil a)

[@TheColorCraftMC]

Impulse ought to have gotten that much earlier. (Ha typed this before Impulse made the same joke when he realized it).

[@dynamite420j]

Do the Tech Stream! Please!?

[@MuljoStpho]

I'm almost kinda surprised to hear that creators can still see dislikes behind the scenes. For the viewers the dislike button stopped displaying a number a few years ago because KZbin didn't want to admit how disliked certain political/news channels and opinions are, because KZbin has their bias and wants to protect one side. So KZbin as a whole, for political and non-political content alike, just does not let us see how many dislikes anything has gotten. We only see the likes. You can get a browser add-on that restores dislike numbers, but they don't truly have access to KZbin's back end with that and they're just making a guesstimate based on known historical trends from before KZbin removed it and also based on the trends of the users of the add-on. So who really knows how accurate the add-on is.

[@HauntingPeace]

I watch this for entertainment, I totally believed you, and would not be put out if it was true. It would be weird for someone to be made upset by this.

[@Jojo.F87]

I think anyone genuinely bothered by the stunt is probably just a younger viewer who may not exactly pick up on things like this. I wouldn't put too much stress on it, because it's so obviously a joke lol nobody on Hermitcraft is going to actually cause that much damage and it make it to a video. By the time you adjust to cater to the younger audience they'll have matured enough to understand stuff like that anyways. Just stay your usual silly self! If people are getting so invested in HC that they start hyperventilating over the videos you post, that's really more of a them-issue than something worth wasting time on. I highly doubt anyone's that attached to block games haha!

[@markcasby8694]

Anyone wanna sell their Youtooz???

[@lightkevlar]

Oh i laughed the whole time. But i also know the blowing a hill like that is very very amateur, and that you are very careful around builds.
