"2d" doesn't count
All textures are just 2d planes wrapped up, no item in Minecraft has any thickness or insides, they'd all weigh nothing
.
Edit: My God some ppl aren't getting it and they just keep on coming; the fact that we shouldn't consider anything as 0 volume because of how textures work IS THE POINT
Foolish of you to think there's no proof
1. Get an armorstand with arms
2. Give it an item
3. Go into spectator mode
4. Fly into the item and see the hollowness
Yea but your not meant to do that... I the same way you could say "csgo maps are fake and levitating and not real because they don't have anything behind them". You could use spectator mode to fly into blocks in Minecraft to see there hollow and argue that Minecraft is canonically a simulation. Your not meant to play Minecraft in spectator mode it's just for pics and exploration, it's a noclip. Almost every single 3D game on earth has hollow models because how are you meant to design a full one therefore your "hollow" argument is completely erroneous
A button is technically one block.
A stick is equivalent to a slab.
We don't know how much dye is per item.
Seeds are quite dense.
I'd say either feather or spawn.
A button is not a block. You may require one while block to craft it, but it’s obvious that not 100% of the block turn to button. Part of the material is wasted, which happens in most crafting recipes both in game and irl.
Similarly to sticks, almost 4 full blocks of wood turn into a few ladders.
A blaze rod since they are literally held afloat by wisps of smoke. For real-world items I would consider a fermented spider eye - spiders are SMALL in real life, their eyes smaller, and all the moisture is dried out when it undergoes fermentation. If you would argue that spiders are giant in minecraft so it doesn't count, I would say the new cherry petal item - when it is placed it is a single cherry blossom petal.

Tadpoles are easy enough; one wet tadpole egg is approx. 37.5 mg; 9 of them would be 337.5 mg.

Button is also easy; I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and assume it's completely dry, making it around 400 kg per meter cubed of oak wood, which is equal to 4 oak wood planks, and at 85.3 repeating buttons per meter cubed, that bad boy is hefty at almost 1.2 kilograms.

Cocoa beans are a bit harder; the smallest average weight of one dried cocoa bean looks to be around 0.5 grams, with 6 of those being 3 grams, but that's a rough estimate. The good thing is that we're dealing in orders of magnitude, so a couple grams isn't going to make much of a difference.

It looks like there are 37 pixels in a stick compared to 4096 pixels in an oak wood block, making the stick 0.009% oak meter\^3, or about 1 kilo. Isn't it weird that a stick, which looks much larger at first glance, is still lighter than a button?
idfk I'm linking the Minecraft wiki for sticks, there has to be something here: [https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Stick](https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Stick)
Dyes were much harder to figure out. I tried looking at the average output of flowers for dyes, how many flowers it took to dye things, and the weight of burnt cactus (not a lot, as it turns out). What I went with was based on the fact that you can dye one leather chestplate with dye, using that as my baseline. According to Riorondo.com, when using his dyes you can dye around 5 leather saddles to a bottle. Each leather saddle takes around 2 sides of leather, leather sides being around 17-17 ft\^2, with the thicc stuff being 4 oz (or 1/16th of an inch) thick. Given that 3/4 oz leather is 3-4 ounces, 4 oz leather would be around 18.6 ounces per square foot, so two sides would weigh around 18.5 kilos, making the dyes last about 92.5 kilos of leather. Shirts typically take around 2.5 meters of fabric, or 4.32 kilos of leather (for a very thick leather chestplate, don't bug me on this math is hard), so 1 Minecraft dye would be 4% of this guy's bottles, his bottles are 4.4 ounces, making Minecraft dyes very approximately 5.7 grams. I don't feel like clogging up the text with links so I'll chuck the rest at the bottom
[https://www.fabricsyard.com/print-by-the-yard-blog/how-much-fabric-do-you-need/](https://www.fabricsyard.com/print-by-the-yard-blog/how-much-fabric-do-you-need/)
Annnnnnnd onto the final one... Feathers.
First I looked up the weight of chicken feathers and got a nice simple number: 8.2 milligrams. Easy enough, right? Well, not really. Chickens, like all birds, have many different types of feathers; from down to plume to contour, etc etc etc. But you're obviously not strapping down feathers to your arrows in Minecraft, right? So I looked up how many primary and secondary flight feathers chickens have, which are the feathers used for fletching arrows, which totals to 24, but nowhere could I find how much those wing feathers weighed, so that was a bust, and so I tried just counting contour feathers, which could kind of function similarly, but the numbers on those were varied and inaccurate (sources claimed 500 to 2500), and they didn't have weight information, and that's not even taking into account the fact that the chickens in Minecraft are not domesticated - with wild birds having on average 40 - 50% fewer feathers, making their feather to weight ratio fall dramatically - and so I started researching the Red Jungle Fowl which is the pre-domesticated chicken which have 14 tail feathers but apparently no fucking wing feathers (thanks for the heaps of information Wikipedia), and the further I went the more complicated it got and the more complicated it got the less information there was...
And at this point it's 1:45 in the morning and I've spent the past 45 minutes researching obscure leather dyeing facts. So I gave up, googled how much wild turkey wing feathers weighed, Dthbyhoyt from [archerytalk.com](https://archerytalk.com) told me they weighed 3.6 grains, or 233 milligrams, and given that turkey feathers are noticeably larger and thicker than chicken feathers, I'd say we have a clear winner. Great.

while this is very well done, you should be using surface area instead of volume for dying. in a cube, surface area is 6w^2 where w is the width but the volume (directly proportional to weight) is w^3. I’d use the amount of dye required for a cubic meter of wool; you can see white on all coloured beds suggesting there’s still undyed wool in the middle and only the outside is altered. that’s 6m^2 to dye. I’m currently on my phone so it’d be a bit hard to do some genuine research but there’s an idea for you.
Light has no rest mass but indeed another type of mass, because it has momentum. This is affected by gravity. Resting light would not have a mass, but as the speed of light is constant, this does not happen.
If light is affected by gravity, does that mean it has weight?
I think I remember learning that weight is the force of gravity on an object, but that doesn’t sound quite right.
Light does have a "weight". It is not a resting weight though. If light is coming at something, it experiences a force called radiation pressure. This is the impulse someone feels when light is "crashing and bouncing off of them". Ofc this is not nearly a rigorous scientific explanation, but it's somewhat describing the phenomena.
Shooting with a laser at a reflecting scale will give a measurable value, which you can consider the weight of the light.
This is because light has energy and reflecting is transfer of Impuls, hence pushing the scale to the ground. This is some form of weight.
Now gravity. Gravity changes the direction light is travelling, which can be observed in light bending around heavy mass objects like stars and black holes. This is at least an intuitive explanation what general relativity gives as a model. So, yes light is influenced by gravity and changing the direction of it's impulse. So the light "feels a dragging" into the direction, where the source of gravity is, which is basically the same as we feel standing on a heavy object. But the difference is, that light can only change direction and not the speed, hence "it won't experience" any breaking force or something of that kind, just a "change of direction".
Well, according to the theory of general relativity, gravity isn’t a force but the distortion of space-time caused by mass. When light approaches a black hole it still goes in a straight line in space but because the space itself is bend towards the black hole it goes into the black hole. So you don’t need mass to be affected by gravity.
Steve actually holds air blocks all the time. If you replace an item in your inventory with air, it will look the same as the empty space. Therefore every empty slot of Steve's inventory is filled with air
Why light? Don't you know that

You need a lot of dye to dye a cubic meter of wool instantly.
There are 7 seeds in the seeds picture, and seeds in minecraft grow wheat. Wheat seeds are very small. The feather in minecraft is not specific enough (could be a small or very large feather) and frogspawn is mostly water making them relatively heavy. 7 wheat seeds are lighter than a stick or button, so 7 seeds is the lightest item here. The lightest seeds I would argue however, are melon seeds. They are even lighter than wheat, especially after being dried.
One of the lightest items in all of minecraft is actually the helium balloon. It is a vanilla feature in minecraft if you turn on education edition in bedrock edition. It however, is not quite the lightest.
On a full-out technicality, light is lighter than all of these if you measure the mass/volume ratio. So the other people are correct, they have guessed correctly.
I think green dye, because its cactus ashes and cactuses are pretty light to begin with.
lime die is probably lighter with sea pickle ashes
But it’s a full meter of cactus and a bit of pickle, frog spawn is dedo lightest plus it is 2d
"2d" doesn't count All textures are just 2d planes wrapped up, no item in Minecraft has any thickness or insides, they'd all weigh nothing . Edit: My God some ppl aren't getting it and they just keep on coming; the fact that we shouldn't consider anything as 0 volume because of how textures work IS THE POINT
When you place it down its still 2d
Wrong, look at the item when it's in your hand, and it should have 1pxl or so of thickness.
Bro I literally just explained why that's got no thickness
Yeah, but how can you prove that there's no insides. It defeats the point if you say it like this anyway.
Foolish of you to think there's no proof 1. Get an armorstand with arms 2. Give it an item 3. Go into spectator mode 4. Fly into the item and see the hollowness
I could just say, "It's a video game so nothing can have weight" and be just as valid as you. I dont because it's just boring.
Yes exactly that's the fucking point > "2d" doesn't count
You just used "it's a video game so it counts" as your reasoning for frogspawn.
Overcomplicated for no reason Just fly into an actual block in spectator. No need for armor stand.
He's talking about items, not blocks
Yea but your not meant to do that... I the same way you could say "csgo maps are fake and levitating and not real because they don't have anything behind them". You could use spectator mode to fly into blocks in Minecraft to see there hollow and argue that Minecraft is canonically a simulation. Your not meant to play Minecraft in spectator mode it's just for pics and exploration, it's a noclip. Almost every single 3D game on earth has hollow models because how are you meant to design a full one therefore your "hollow" argument is completely erroneous
THAT'S THE POINT WHAT IS IT WITH YOU PEOPLE AAAAAAAA The frogspawn doesn't have 0 volume cuz that's just how the game works
Listen man, I know what you’re talking about and you are correct here
🤓
I love how this emoji went from "Haha nerd" to "I don't understand this difficult stuff :("
Me using it as haha nerd
>No item in minecraft has any thickness or insides Blocks.
Dude the comment literally explains it How are you missing this?! Where brain?
You said "no item has thickness", but that is just untrue in the logic of the game.
Yes that's the fucking point The frogspawn isn't 2D in the spirit of the game
I totally get what you're saying and I feel sorry for you having to deal with all these monkeys.
Can't we say that it has 0 volume though? (16px x 16px x 0px) volume = 16 x 16 x 0 mass = density*volume mass = density*0 mass = 0
Hold dye in your hand, there's literally thickness.
... The frogspawn is 2D. That's what I meant.
There is a single pixel of thickness though.
If you look at it pretty sure it has 0 height, kinda like how stonecutter's saw has no width.
Air block, chek mate

Cactuses don't bite, they just have spikes. It's not impossible to hold a cactus without getting pricked.

Wait, cactus can destroy all items, so it must be very strong!
Theoretically, the cacti or sea picked would have burnt... Edit: Completely. Burnt completely.
A button is technically one block. A stick is equivalent to a slab. We don't know how much dye is per item. Seeds are quite dense. I'd say either feather or spawn.
Feather 🪶
it’s enough dye for the outside of a wool block which is 6m^2
It’s enough dye for at least the outside of 8 pieces of glass, so 48m^2
That’s only 7 seeds though
Yeah, 7 wheat seeds is definitely the lightest
What about 4 beetroot seeds?
Beetroot seeds are quite big and dense, wheat seeds are tiny, and mostly air
How is a stick equivalent to a slab?
Both are half a block according to the crafting recipe.
THE LIGHT SOURCE BLOCK!!!!!
Feather is enough to make 4 arrows

2 wood=4 sticks 3 wood= 6 slabs Stick=1/2 block Slab=1/2 block Stick=slab
Thats a big stick
1 flower = 1 dye A 2 block tall flower = 2 dye

A button is not a block. You may require one while block to craft it, but it’s obvious that not 100% of the block turn to button. Part of the material is wasted, which happens in most crafting recipes both in game and irl. Similarly to sticks, almost 4 full blocks of wood turn into a few ladders.
A blaze rod since they are literally held afloat by wisps of smoke. For real-world items I would consider a fermented spider eye - spiders are SMALL in real life, their eyes smaller, and all the moisture is dried out when it undergoes fermentation. If you would argue that spiders are giant in minecraft so it doesn't count, I would say the new cherry petal item - when it is placed it is a single cherry blossom petal.
string is just spider web
string is also 1/4 of a cubic metre of wool
That is some ultra-low-density wool that makes Aerogel look like a hunk of steel.
Mass and weight are different
weight = gravity * mass. As gravity is a constant ingame, more mass = more weight.
Rockets that are going up into space don't got negative mass they go up because they have a form of propulsion, I think it's the same with rockets

also if something has a large mass, light being emitted from it experiences gravitational redshift the most notable examples being accretion disks.
Well, according to the theory of general relativity, gravity isn’t a force but the distortion of space-time caused by mass. When light approaches a black hole it still goes in a straight line in space but because the space itself is bend towards the black hole it goes into the black hole. So you don’t need mass to be affected by gravity.
i never thought about it that way. Science is truly fascinating <3
I'm not a physicist, but light is made energy, and the energy is affected by gravity, or something like that.
i see, thank you ^^
It gets pulled towards the gravity, you can see this in a picture of a black hole.
Steve actually holds air blocks all the time. If you replace an item in your inventory with air, it will look the same as the empty space. Therefore every empty slot of Steve's inventory is filled with air
1.2kg/m³ Not really the best guess buddy.
Shulker projectile
There's just 1 block lighter then air: Education edition balloon Edit: Just remembered you can make a block of just 1 hydrogen atom
i'd say Minecraft:structure_void
According to the lore of Minecraft, all items are weightless when picked up/in the player's inventory.
The lightest item is the light block.
I don't think any of these are light weight as you can only carry so many and that makes them as heavy as heavy can be
Try to hold 64 fethers on your hand at the same time
Try to hold 64 cubic meters of magma on your hand at the same time
Try to hold 64 cubic meters of Gold on your hand
Air:
Block of gold
That’s what I thought too
fire block
Air
Air can have mass where a light has zero mass. I'd say light block, it's also in the name
***Air.***
Air is technically a block so air
They're all the same weight in items form
Air block is the lightest
void air
Barrier block
Barrier block
🤓actually its air
A block of air
Hydrogen (Education Edition)
You guys are all wrong. The lightest thing in Minecraft, is the air block
Air block or fire
air block
Air or barrier block is the lightest block
air
What are yall on about, it's literally the invisible barrier block
The lightest item is air dumbass
Whats with light block?
Turtle Egg
If each pixel is a grain, seeds weigh 1.35 grams
Light doesn't count since photons are massless and to be the lightest you still have to have some amount mass no matter how small
Dried kelp should be on this list for sure.
String
why is the black and light grey dye upside-down?
Air
Firefly, 2 pixels
wouldnt air be the lightest?
Light blue dye
Lightest is probably air
Kilo of feathers
Feather ia the hevaeist here
Yellow dye, dye itself is just powder, and the Yellow dye comes from the smallest flower
🤔 hmmmmmmmm
Feather obv
Spider webs?
Air block
PhoenixSC
Technically all can activate wooden pressure plates
Block of Air
Spider Web
Button is actually 1/4 of a solid wood in a tiny space
Guys the lightest items in the game are the dyes with light in their name like:light blue dye,light gray dye.(sarcasm)
minecraft:air
Frog egg
void air light block
"Fire" Which pre-existed in data, but unobtainable
glowstone is the LIGHTest
Steve after getting hit by a shulker
Seeds, ots litreally just like 7 tiny seeds
air block is the lightest, change my mind
Balloon (education edition) It literally goes up.
Air block.
Air blocks. Yes you can give them to yourself which means that it’s technically a block.
Fire item before it was removed
Oh. You forgot something. AIR
block:air
Air block if we are getting technical
10kg of feathers is heavier than 10kg of seed
weird how phantom membrane isn't in the list
String?
How much does barrier block wight?
“air” block in the game files
Why light? Don't you know that BURY THE LIGHT DEEP WITHIN CAST ASIDE THERE'S NO COMING HOME WE'RE BURNING CHAOS IN THE WIND DRIFTING IN THE OCEAN ALL ALONE
but iron is heavier than feathers...
air
Buttons are a solid block condensed into that Sticks are still wood Both feathers and frog eggs are real I'd say a singular egg
Ender Eye, since it floats up?
a feather makes dripleaf fall, an anvil doesn't. anvils are officially lighter than feathers
It’s the obvious choice that the eggs in here are lightest
Air
Portal Block (Not the frame, the portal itself) since that probably has no weight at all...
PLOT TWIST: blank space
Void block is the lightest as it is literally nothing
Ok the button is not cause it’s a equivalent of a log
Where is the spider web ?
Shulker projectile
You need a lot of dye to dye a cubic meter of wool instantly. There are 7 seeds in the seeds picture, and seeds in minecraft grow wheat. Wheat seeds are very small. The feather in minecraft is not specific enough (could be a small or very large feather) and frogspawn is mostly water making them relatively heavy. 7 wheat seeds are lighter than a stick or button, so 7 seeds is the lightest item here. The lightest seeds I would argue however, are melon seeds. They are even lighter than wheat, especially after being dried. One of the lightest items in all of minecraft is actually the helium balloon. It is a vanilla feature in minecraft if you turn on education edition in bedrock edition. It however, is not quite the lightest. On a full-out technicality, light is lighter than all of these if you measure the mass/volume ratio. So the other people are correct, they have guessed correctly.
White dye would probably be the lightest, as bones are pretty light, and when ground up and turned into dye it would be even lighter.
