Q & A
What is the main objective of the video?
-The main objective of the video is to build and showcase various hidden bases in Minecraft, ranging from simple to complex, and to have the creator's friend Caleb find and rate them.
How many different hidden bases were built in total?
-The exact number of hidden bases built is not specified in the transcript, but it mentions a 100x100 block area filled with over 20 different hidden bases.
What is the incentive for Caleb to find the hidden bases?
-Caleb is paid for each hidden base he finds, with varying amounts for different levels of difficulty: $1 for easy, $3 for medium, $5 for hard, and $20 for insane bases.
What is the grand prize for Caleb if he finds all the hidden bases?
-If Caleb finds all the hidden bases, he will be rewarded with a PS5, which the creator promises to ship to him.
What is the purpose of the birch tree base mentioned in the video?
-The birch tree base is one of the hidden bases built using powdered snow and buckets to disguise the entrance, making it look like a normal tree until crouched into.
How does the bed-based hidden base work?
-The bed-based hidden base utilizes the game mechanic where sleeping and waking up in a bed allows you to spawn on certain blocks. By placing blocks on top of the bed, the creator controls the spawn point, which can be inside a wall or another hidden area.
What is the lava pool hidden base and how is it accessed?
-The lava pool hidden base is accessed by jumping into a designated area of a lava pool. It is built using signs placed in water to create a safe area to stand in the lava.
What is the concept behind the high chest-based hidden base?
-The high chest-based hidden base is built very high up in the sky using only chests. Chests are entity blocks that disappear when viewed from a distance, making the base invisible from the ground.
What is the unique feature of the painting hidden base designed by Green?
-The painting hidden base designed by Green uses a mechanism where an iron door is placed behind a painting. A furnace and comparator are used to create an access code, and the door can only be opened by placing a stack of items into the furnace.
What is the purpose of the decoy base in the video?
-The decoy base serves as a cover for the more complex hidden bases. It is a simple, regular-looking base that the creator adds various hidden entrances to, making it blend in with the surroundings.
What is the final hidden base built in the video?
-The final hidden base built is a walking house. It is not hidden in the traditional sense but has the ability to move away, making it difficult to find if someone stumbles upon it.
Outlines
🏰 Building Hidden Bases in Minecraft
The script starts with an introduction to a project of building various hidden bases in Minecraft. The creator plans to construct a range of bases from simple to complex and invite a friend, Caleb, to find them. The goal is to determine which base is the most hidden and which is the best overall. The project begins with creating a 100x100 block border to contain all the bases and proceeds with building easy hidden bases like a village world secret base, a hidden tree base, and a natural waterfall base. The creator also experiments with unique ideas like using powdered snow and buckets to hide an entrance under a birch tree.
🛠️ Crafting More Hidden Bases and Testing Them
The video script continues with the creator building more hidden bases, including a bed-based base that allows for spawning inside walls, a secret room behind a door, and a trapdoor under a bed accessible via a minecart. The creator also builds a lava pool base with signs and water to create a hidden entrance, a pathway block trick under a tree with a lever and Redstone door, and a base activated by shooting a block with a pressure plate on it. The script details the construction process and the mechanics behind each hidden base, highlighting the creativity and ingenuity involved in their design.
🔧 Building Medium-Level Hidden Bases
The script moves on to constructing medium-level hidden bases, which are more complex and better concealed. The creator builds a base high in the sky using chest blocks that disappear when viewed from a distance, a boat-based base inside a natural hole, and a composter hidden base designed by Gan. The creator also adds a painting hidden base with a more complex Redstone mechanism, a trash can base, and a shulker box-based base that opens when a shulker box is opened above a player's head. The script describes the steps taken to build these bases and the clever Redstone contraptions used to hide them.
🔩 Advanced Redstone Mechanisms for Hidden Bases
The creator delves into more advanced Redstone mechanisms for hidden bases, including a pathway Redstone door by Mumbo Jumbo, a Redstone door that opens when eating food by Shulkercraft, and a water bucket door. The script outlines the intricate Redstone setups required for these bases, emphasizing the technical skill needed to create such hidden entrances. The creator also adds hints and tools for Caleb to find and open these bases, making the challenge more engaging.
🤯 Introducing Hard and Insane Hidden Bases
The script introduces harder and insane categories of hidden bases, which are even more elaborate and secretive. The creator describes building a base that opens after standing on a pressure plate for over 30 seconds, a Strider-based door that reacts to the creature eating cactus fruit, and a void base that is difficult and dangerous to build. The insane category includes a fake cactus base made with item frame pixel art maps, a hidden elevator base activated by a stone button, and a walking house base that moves to avoid discovery. The creator discusses the extensive time and resources needed to build these bases, showcasing the extreme dedication to creating the most hidden bases possible.
💸 Caleb's Challenge to Find Hidden Bases
The creator brings Caleb over to challenge him to find all the hidden bases built within the 100x100 area. Caleb is incentivized with a reward system based on the difficulty of the base found, with simple bases earning $1, medium $3, hard $5, and insane $20. The creator also promises a PS5 if Caleb finds all the bases. Caleb begins his search, finding several bases quickly but struggling with others that require solving Redstone puzzles or understanding the unique mechanics behind each hidden entrance. The script captures the excitement and frustration of the search, as well as Caleb's determination to find each base.
🎮 Caleb's Final Attempt and Conclusion
In the final part of the script, Caleb makes a last attempt to find the remaining hidden bases. He discovers several more, including a complex Redstone-based base that reacts to different food items eaten by the player. Caleb also finds a hidden base in the sky, which he initially overlooks due to its height. The creator tallies Caleb's earnings, amounting to $16, and Caleb humorously orders an excessive number of MCChickens as a reward. The script concludes with Caleb's reflection on the challenge and the creator's personal favorite hidden base being the one under the tree for its simplicity and cleanliness.

Transcripts
what is the most hidden base you can
build in Minecraft well I I want to find
out and today I'm going to build
literally every single hi and base
entrance I can find on the internet
ranging from the simplest to weird
weirdest to the craziest to answer that
question Cu uh somebody has to do it so
let's grab some blocks and build a 100x
100 block border where they all will be
built inside cuz at the end I'm actually
going to be inviting my friend Caleb to
see which ones can easily be found and
most importantly which one is the best
all right and after some research I put
together this list of hidden bases this
is every single one I found after a
couple hours and let's get right into it
and build the first one which is the
classic Village World secret base which
I'm going to be honest he's probably
going to find this one second is a
hidden tree base where you build it
inside of a tree but the problem with
this one is uh if you just have high
quality settings on uh you can you can
see through it but don't worry because
right now I'm just quickly building all
this simple easy hidden BAS first I'm
working my way up to the harder ones
next up on the list a natural waterfall
base where you just build it in this
little hole yep inside of here which is
pretty clean but is also pretty obvious
but this next one is pretty genius all
you need is powdered snow and buckets go
to a birch tree build a little base
under it however you like break the rest
of the logs except the ones connected to
the leaves and replace them with your
powdered snow bro what the what the heck
is this maybe trees will help it look
better nope not at all it still looks
trash take a hole a scaffolding and this
will be the entrance to the base there
we go ins hiide this base so no one can
see some people might know this trick
but you can just cover it up with snow
and make sure you're in a snow biome so
it's not obvious people will just walk
over it without them knowing and to get
into your base all you got to do is
Crouch
what okay we got it okay and Bam you're
in your base also I just realized I
built it outside of the border so I
moved it over here so don't worry the
next hidden base is a bed well using a
bed you see when you sleep in a bed and
wake up you can spawn on these five
blocks by placing blocks on top of them
you can control where you spawn actually
uh you can spawn here as well um you can
control where you spawn what the heck
you can control where you spawn okay you
can also spawn on these blocks as well
but you you get the point by using this
method you can make yourself TP through
walls as you can see I am now in this
random cave and my bed is on this side
of the wall so you can just build a
little secret base in here and I guess
on the way out you can use the same
method yeah K is definitely finding this
one like bro there's just a random bed
here all right I just made a little
decoy base inside of a mountain for the
next hidden base which is actually very
very simple bam how this hidden base
works is when people go into your base
they will leave without even knowing
there's a secret room and all you have
to do to get inside of it is close a
door yep that is basically it we'll have
to see if Caleb finds this one and see
if he closes the door there will be
another hidden BAS Bas in here as well
which is a classic trapo under the bed
to get inside you just got to open the
trap door HPP her in the mine cart and
Bam and when you're finished you can
just sleep in the bed and get out which
is pretty pretty cool and I like this
one a lot the next hidden base is in
this lava pool don't believe me watch a
pig is going to go in
it oh okay it doesn't work for animals
but if I jump in this
area
yo got your hiden base in a lava pool
this was kind of a pain to build but
you're just need to place signs in water
and to get out
um you're just going to go like that bro
watch kale jump in here and die to the
lava it's not my fault when you Farmland
grass it'll be smaller than the other
blocks and you can break the block
behind it and by using this trick you
can place down a mine cart on the other
side and by using the tiny little hole
you can enter your base to get out of
here you can just use the same mine cart
trick I guess yeah this is not
suspicious at all next I'm going to
create a little pathway through this
Forest because pathway blocks do the
same thing as Farmland look at this
they're the same height so I'm going to
do the same trick but under a tree which
is way less suspicious let's place down
a lever right here connect it up to a
secret Redstone door to get into your
base you just got to flick this lever
which opens this hole bam I actually
like this one a lot and for the last
simple hidden base we're going to build
uses a bow and pressure
plate yep because many people don't know
this but for for some reason when you
shoot a block with a pressure plate on
it it somehow Powers it and don't ask me
why this works I literally have no idea
how ask Minecraft and by using this
mechanic we can build a really good
hidden base and all I have to do is
shoot my bow at this block and it opens
my base yeah Minecraft actually thank
you thank you for adding this mechanic
this is actually super and the arrow
also keeps the door open and when you
want to close it you can just pick it up
and Bam you just got to make sure you
don't use a bow with affinity or else
you can't pick it back up and your B is
unhidden and there we go all the easy
simple hidden bases we can build are
done I'm expecting Caleb to find at
least most of these cuz come on they're
they're kind of kind of bad but we are
just getting started and let's move on
to the medium level ones which are
actually going to be more hidden cuz
that's the point first up is actually a
really really good one that is building
it really really high and building it
just with chest yep just the entire
thing being chest I'll show you why not
only because nobody will look this high
up in the sky but because chests are
entity blocks and when you go further
away from them they will actually
disappear and when you're chilling on
the ground they're nowhere to be seen
but little will they know they're just
literally right here but you just got to
make sure when you're up there no one is
around you because uh it look like
you're just floating in the sky and they
will see you and also you got a
beautiful view this next one is from
Green and all you got to do is place
down a boat up inside of it go straight
into this natural looking hole and when
you're taking damage just hop
out oh it didn't work oh oh all right I
fixed the problem I just got to go
inside and once I'm fully inside I just
got to hop
out bam you got your Secret Base and to
get out you just got to do the same
exact thing hop into this boat and bang
but the boat on the outside kind of just
stays there which is a little bit
obvious but luckily green thought that
too and added on this Redstone machine
that will fix it all right um I didn't
build my Redstone as good as greens but
it still works similar and now when you
go into your base with your boat just
like this with these two levers you can
destroy the boat using lava that's a
boat based thingy okay I am starving and
I ran out of food I need to go to my
vending machine and for the next few
things on the list we're going to need
to build a decoy base to hide them it
all right there we go pretty simple just
a regular base and we're going to add a
lot of hidden bases onto here first one
we're going to add is another one
designed by Gan which is a composter
hidden base on the outside of the house
and to get inside you go into the
composter and press this button pretty
pretty pretty simple and to make this
less obvious I'll place down a bunch
more posters and buttons everywhere and
I'll add Farm stuff to make it look like
a a garden area second I'll add the
classic painting oh that is way too big
painting hidden base which is definitely
going to be found but that's fine
because oh but that's fine because I'm
going to add another hidden painting
wall but a little bit more complicated
all right for this hidden painting base
instead of just having a painting that
people can just go through cuz everyone
knows that trick to get into this this
base all you got to do is throw a block
right there and Bam you're in your
hidden base okay there's no way out so
you're going to have to deal with that
and this head and base is designed by
Green again and how this door works is
by using honey blocks and Hoppers cuz
for some reason you can throw blocks
through honey blocks and these Hoppers
detect when an item goes through them
which Powers this Redstone and opens the
door but there's another hidden painting
base better than greens that I found and
is actually one of my favorite hidden
bases all you got to do is place down
iron door where the painting will be and
a furnace anywhere next to it which is
going to be the access code to get into
the base place a comparator connected to
it and just simple Redstone Dust
connecting it to the door and that is
basically it let's just place the
painting back down and now because the
iron door is shut you can't get inside
and to open it all you got to do is put
a stack of items into the
furnace and just like that nobody will
find your Secret Base unless they they
smelt
something uh I didn't think about that
next let's add a simple trash can to
this base which isn't anything special
just a place to throw away your stuff
and that's pretty much
it yeah but if you jump into it there's
a hidden base which is kind of cool the
only way to get up is through the same
way I need fire and I just got the idea
of building one that's not actually a
trash can just in case Caleb jumps in
the wrong one hopefully he doesn't die I
hope you guys remember me and Kel are in
a hardcore server so if he dies it's my
fault and I have no the last thing to
this basee of course is going to be the
shulker opening hidden base which we all
know when you open a shulker with a
block over your head you'll face through
it and go into the ground which is your
hidden base and I hide this better I'll
add like realistic shelves so it doesn't
look so sus but there you go another
hidden base and this base has five
hidden bases in it it's pretty good now
quickly build the rest of the medium
hidden bases which is a pathway Redstone
door by mumbo jumbo which is very hidden
all you got to do is pathway this block
and a door open and to get out of here
you just press this button and there you
go and the Redstone also makes a pathway
block go back to normal which is very
very good to hide your base next is a
redstone door by shulkercraft that opens
when you eat
food yep I'm not even kidding it only
opens when you
eat which is so sick and I know you're
probably wondering nope it doesn't open
the door with any other types of sounds
only when you eat
which is crazy and for some reason it
doesn't work with golden carrots and
only apples it took me a very very long
time to figure that out what the
heck oh oh bro chill out I'm just
looking at your
flower and the last medium hidden base
is another Redstone door but this one is
my favorite cuz to open the door right
here all you need is a water bucket and
to pour it in this specific block right
here there you go
bam and to BU build it is actually very
very simple as you can tell this is not
complicated at all and to close the door
you just need to take the water out and
Bam which is so cool I'm not going to
lie and you could have a system below to
take the water out to close the door but
I didn't add one for these hidden door
entrances there's no way Kayo will be
able to find them so just for making
this you know a little bit less
challenging I outline the areas and
added the tools he needs to open the
doors see if he can figure it out
himself just to give him a chance and
there there we go the medium hidden
bases are all complete the square is
filling up pretty nicely if I save
myself and this is where the video gets
spicy and finally moving on building the
actual super unique hidden bases I found
while researching the hard and insane
category hidden bases these are going to
be a lot more hidden I'll just say that
and to start with the hard hidden bases
first there's one designed by redraft
himself redraft had the brilliant idea
of having a secret base open from the
pressure plates of your house but not
just when you walk into them a secret
base opens but to open your Secret Base
you have to stand on one of these
pressure plates for a while like over 30
seconds or something for the hidden base
to finally open which is actually genius
so let's grab all the Redstone materials
we're going to need and build the
Redstone for it well let's hope I
actually can I don't know how I'm going
to do this yet all right I think I
somehow got it to work to get into your
hidden base all you got to do is stand
on this pressure plate and wait here for
like a minute yep that long oh it opened
okay you heard the is open and you just
got to stand on it a little bit longer
to buy yourself time and now when you
walk out this should be open yeah and it
closes a piston makes a sound right when
you stand on the pressure plate so Kaleb
might hear that but there's no way he
has the patience to stand on this for
like a minute straight next thing on the
hardless is another wool hidden door
entrance but unlike the other three we
built where you have to do an action to
get inside for this one you got a
remote wait for it perfect look at this
let me open it again to get out really
quick there we go how this works is
literally by using a a Strider cuz for
some reason Striders can see you holding
this even through blocks and when he
sees you holding one he will want to eat
it and walk into the trip ryer hooks
triggering the Redstone and opening the
door it's the same thing to get out you
just got to hold it right here and Bam
you're out and I shut the door you just
got to stop holding it bam this one is
actually sick I'm not going to lie the
next base is actually very simple all
you need is Coors fruit and that's it
I'm not kidding you just got to build
your hidden base under the ground cover
it up with blocks and to get inside you
just got to eat your Co fruit okay you
might have to eat it a couple
times bro why is it not
working oh my gosh finally you're in
your base this is stupid as and to get
out you just do the same thing
okay what bro why is it not working okay
there you go bam the third hard base
completed I'll leave this Co fruit in
this chest let's see if Caleb will
understand what to do oh holy crap that
took so many tries but I guess that's a
good thing and last hard hidden base
before we move on to the insane ones is
one we all know and love the void base
which is pretty difficult to uh build
and a little bit dangerous I can just
easily fall off and and die I got a
chest and a furnace so I'm fine bro I
kind of just want to fly in the void but
bam there we go the hard defenses I
don't know how I'm going to do
this and finally with the hard Bas is
finished it's time for the insane
category this is where it becomes a
