What is the Safest Base Possible in Minecraft?

A Minecraft base that is IMPOSSIBLE to enter. With so many videos about "the safest house" and "the most secure base" you would think people would have eventually found a base that you can't just bridge over. But no. So today we are going to conclude the decade long mystery once and for all, and answer the question, What is the Safest Base in Minecraft? A base that you can't raid, the safest house ever.

This is a series called Minecraft VVSauce where I explore random features of Minecraft. Not Minecraft, but the water rises or Minecraft Manhunt but a more research based series dedicated to over-answering questions you never asked.

Hi!
As you may/may not know, the legendary Ivory (featured in this video as mythrodak) came out as trans a few months ago and is addressed in this video differently than how she would prefer. So if you go check her channel out (which you absolutely should) it would be great if you could address her as Ivory (she/her) and not mythrodak (he/him).

Thank you for understanding and I hope you enjoyed the video

The safest house is a house in single player. No one to steal your items

I feel very safe in my 3x3 dirt house tbh

When you said "It's just a regular house" and I saw a chicken walking towards the safest house, I was expecting the chicken to be obliterated from the universe instantly.

An enderchest full of shulkers gives you 702 slots to store items in (not including the 27 in the enderchest taken up by shulkers).
Truly, the most secure base is no base at all.

Finally, someone who acknowledges that "well-defended" bases can just be mined into or under.

Thanks for the shout outs Wifies! I love these deep dive into these topics, well done!
You might have not known but I also was the creator of the indestructible ender crystal method for survival and it has other cool properties like reflecting arrows.

I was once on a server with a land-claiming mod which prevented placement or mining if you weren't the owner of the region. Someone had built a fort within an area they owned, but in their hubris they made it out of wood. I grew a few trees nearby, and set them on fire. This was back before fire spread was limited.

My immediate reaction was "why not just a hidden base well away from spawn that no one will find?" Glad the classic technique is still in play

Multiplayer: Valts, Bases which are secure as hell
Singleplayer: I'm just gonna throw my treasures in a 3x3 dirt hut.

Btw the thick bedrock box that goes to build limit can still be broken into even with chunkbans around it. You can enderpearl cannon yourself in the void to land below the house using tnt minecarts, and then you can just enderpearl up until you are inside :)

But then I had a very good idea, I used F5.
See using F5 gives me a whole new perspective and I was able to see ender crystal usages for creating the safest base.

The issue with security through obscurity is that the instant the obscurity is lost, and you have no security, your base is literally less defensible than anything else out there.

i've heard of good crossovers but this takes the spot as the best crossover - wifies and mythrodak

[yokailoi]

If you want safer, hide in plain sight. Use a natural witch hut to hide the items in the area and then build the decoy base.

[ElaineStarfall]

It would have been hilarious if at the end of the video, while wifies was talking about the real base, ivory was in the background breaking in.
