In a recent Hermitcraft stream, players GoodTimesWithScar and EthosLab demonstrated just how chaotic space travel can be — inside the blocky world of Minecraft.

“The reality of going to space,” one player jokes as the build explodes.
The video, originally part of a charity event recap stream, highlights the creative (and often disastrous) engineering that makes Minecraft so entertaining. Viewers are treated to an in-game physics lesson where rockets and TNT don't always behave as planned.
