Dear the Minecraft Flexers,
I crunched the numbers, and in order to make a 1.18 world-height netherite beacon, the absolute ULTIMATE Minecraft flex, you would have to place down 21,979,799 netherite blocks (404^3÷3-1). To craft that many netherite blocks, you need to mine 791,272,764 ancient debris, a cube of ancient debris almost a kilometer tall. For the Americans, it’s a cube about 10 lady liberties stacked atop one another.
Since the average ancient debris per chunk in the nether is ~1.65, you need to completely excavate 479,559,273 chunks, or a 350 by 350 kilometer area of the nether. For a quick size comparison for you to understand just how absolutely huge that is, this is how a square that size would look on the Moon. Every pixel represents 1 kilometer. That excavation hole would be visible on the moon, from earth, with the unaided eye. You would have to excavate all of Ireland, and north Ireland, and a bit more, just for the one netherite beacon.
Assuming every bed in the nether always breaks a perfect sphere 7 blocks wide, a volume of 179 blocks, you would need the completely LUDICROUS 82,302,016,014 (82.3 Billion) beds to do the job. Over ten beds for every human alive right now. All of those beds can make a square that is wider than the entire earth just for breaking all of that nether.
Ancient debris is blastproof, so you’re gonna have to mine it all by hand. On average, a netherite pickaxe with unbreaking 3 can break 8,128 blocks before breaking without mending. Just to mine the netherite for the beacon, you need to go through 97,351 and a half unbreaking 3 netherite pickaxes, costing you yet another 389,404 ancient debris, about 40.5 million more beds, and another 7.772 km square from the nether.
Not even mentioning the 48 years and 10 months you would have to spend on mining alone, with efficiency 5 and haste 2 beacons. It is a completely, and utterly impossible feat. Unless you have 1,000 people mining ancient debris, it would only take just over 2 and a half weeks of pure mining. Realistically, with the time to get all the chests, shulker boxes, EXP farms for the mending netherite picks, setting up the haste 2 beacons, eating (in-game), blocking up lava, getting netherite for said picks, fighting nether mobs, getting the wool and wood for the beds, the travelling, actually making the hole to put the netherite pyramid in, people having breaks for sleep, school, work, and using the bathroom, it would take at least a year to complete if 1,000 players were trying their hardest to make the ultimate beacon flex.
It would be the project to end all projects to make a large server for that one purpose. Would probably be a huge thing for the Minecraft community. 1,000 players out to get a 1.18 world height pure netherite beacon. Minecraft’s biggest project. If hundreds of people watched a brit as he drained a Minecraft ocean over streams for weeks, imagine how many people would watch 1,000 people work together for Minecraft’s biggest flex ever. That would actually be a really cool idea.

This would actually be amazing, I want this to happen. /srs

Here's one of my Minecraft hot takes
Netherite upgrade templates are not as bad as people claim and I'm tired and annoyed at people who complain about it, the hardest part is getting enough diamonds to duplicate them and that's been made almost trivial with how easy it is to get diamonds by finding a decent cave and using fortune and some night vision. If you think that the upgrade template is bad then you need to git gud
(by the way I suck at Minecraft and even I can do it with relative simplicity so if you really struggle that much then I have every right to say that it's just a skill issue on your part)

Doodle - Netherite Bucket
The irony lies in the fact that even though an iron bucket would burn when thrown into lava, it can still scoop up the lava.
However, doesn't it seem like the recently introduced Netherite would be more fitting for such a task?

Shut up. We've gotten pretty damn close to the real thing.

finally at full netherite!!
He built the ocean monument guardian farm and we get CRAZY XP now and we had to go to the nether to get some netherite upgrade templates from a bastion. We found 2 upgrades and we had a ton of diamonds to duplicate them so we got full netherite!!
Next on the list: Building an item sorter because we get an INSANE amount of prismarine shards and crystals and fish from the guardian farm.
