[@jsproductions8569]

For the barrel glitch in bedrock, if you are waiting in a nether portal in survival as the swirls begin, if you open a barrel then it will never close until you open it again. The reason for this is that you can't open your inventory during the waiting phase of going through the portal in bedrock. Not sure about java though. Haven't tried it yet

[@FBI-003]

In the logic, I think it even works with chests Edit: you can do this with barrels just by clicking on it when you move your camera away from the block.
