I Made an Escape Room for my Friends in Minecraft...

My three takeaways from this video:
- Impulse is the only one who takes it seriously and actually knows what to do
- Joel has a very warped sense of humour
- Grian just misses Mumbo

12:10 I absolutely love the idea of Jigsaw getting fed up with someone he's captured failing at the easy part and just smashing into the room to show _how_ easy it is before swooping back out.

I absolutely enjoyed Joels escape room. The voice is just icing on the cake. Made me crack up every room :)

I’d love to see this concept extend for a few more episodes! Personally, I’d enjoy seeing Etho or BDubs!

The axe thing was so obvious that the tension I felt from seeing the bit start to end was worth it.

Joel angrily breaking through the ceiling to light the candle for you absolutely cracked me up lol. This is such a cool collab!

Grian constantly missing Mumbo is the most wholesome thing evah

14:41 when Grian just goes *”IMPATIENTSV”* is golden
Then 16:02 when they both scream *”WAIT YOU HAVE ONE TOO?!”* just shows how _cruel_ Joel is
Edit: I watched all 3 episodes of this in one day 2 months ago and questioning my sanity. As Dan Reynolds once said: “they’re just a figment of imagination” because I have schizophrenia but live for Scarian and ID

Grian: Grumbot just can't let go of Mumbo
Also Grian: If Impulse wants to relax he can chill in this nice peaceful room full of Mumbo heads.
I begin to suspect that Grumbot's obsession with Mumbo might have been inherited and not a bug in the system.
Edit: 4:30 please never let grian figure out how to turn that into a skin, my heart can't take it and neither can Scar's.

I love that Joel put a button that specifically kills Grain because he knew Grian wouldn't be able to resist.
I'm pretty sure I could understand Joel but I appreciate the subtitles.

I wanted to leave a comment about the CAPTIONING HERE!!! THIS IS SOME OF THE BEST CAPTIONING I HAVE EVER SEEN ON KZclip!!
you do not understand how insanely happy this makes me. as someone who requires captions (i have sensory processing issues) it is so incredible for me to see such well-done captions; the different colours for different speakers, capitalised names - everything is done in a perfect standard format to maximise accessibility. but my favourite bit of all HAS to be when Joel speaks with the voice changer and the captions switch from open to closed captions. Usually, the closed captions will continue in captioning, making it difficult to read the text. BUT THE CLOSED CAPTIONING STOPS!!! this means I can still actually read the screen and it doesnt inhibit my understanding at all!! whoever did these captions, i APPLAUD you, and grian too - thank you SO MUCH for this. genuinely incredible.

Honestly I haven't watched the other videos yet but I can't imagine an escape room more entertaining than Joel's.

Joel bursting out of the ceiling due to being frustrated at them being incapable of doing the puzzle so he can do it himself is way funnier then it has the right to be

Feels like a classic Grian build battle. I miss those videos a lot, you should do more like this!

Grian echoes the sentiment of the entire Hermitcraft audience. We miss Mumbo.

Really cool, I like that you guys are doing some fun stuff other than just the normal collabs from Empires and Hermitcraft. I don't know how long it took to create these videos, however the idea seems pretty popular, probably worth doing more. Nearly 500k for each of your videos in the first two days. I'd be down to watch more creative content like this. I watch all of you guy's videos regardless anyway. I can't wait for the next season of Last Life. Aloha, happy holidays boys🤙

After watching all three videos, it is apparent that these match your personalities. Impulse’s logic and kindness, Grian’s chaos, and Joel’s Drama

Joel did pretty well. It could basically be a minecraft personality test. You would rather kill turtles than think of how to use the tools you have (a hoe), you need to think outside the box to light the candles (and pay attention to the information your "captor" "accidentally" gives you), be observant or curious enough to check walls (trapdoors) (in this case, it was just Grian flipping a trapdoor. It's just like levers, really), and finally, would you kill your friend to save a beloved pet, or kill a beloved pet to save a friend.
Ultimately, it seem like a test that would reward you for thinking outside the box and also for not being violent.
10/10 Joel did good work

12:09 I lost it when Joel started yelling "I tested it! Look! It's easy!" and came down himself to show how it's done

Jimmy sure gets a lot of compliments in these escape rooms.

Okay, we are 16 seconds in and I already find this video extremely funny. Grian and Joel's respective 'G' and 'J' are capitalized for their names, yet Impulse's signature 'i' is still lowercase! Gosh I love these three!!!

Props for always making projects that promote fun interactivity from viewers :)
Nice job, ideas and execution, the three videos were very enjoyable!

Absolutely loved watching all 3 videos. 😄 They were all amazing and hilarious to watch.
Particularly Joel's 'I tested it. It's easy.' Moment which was hilarious. 😂😄

As someone who works at an escape room, I can confirm that we make our contestants kill turtles in order for them to proceed.

I needed this. Feels like a throwback to grian's old videos with colabs. If theres somehow a slim chance grian sees this, I think i speak for everyone that we miss this

Joel, Grian, and Impulse in a situation of struggling to light a candle seems awfully familiar… just needs a murderous ghost and a certain toy.

This collab has been so fun! I'm glad to see more one-off collabs, and I'd love to see more

I'm so glad to see the build battles coming back! Can't wait for more!

Mad points to Joel though, hitting that candle shot first try like a boss lol.

I loved it! Always great to see different content from you, we're with you no matter what videos you want to make.

As a map maker who's made escape rooms before; watching your friends struggle to see puzzle clues that you literally point out to them is pretty funny.

being able to do that part of parkour just explains how much of a G.O.A.T Grian is.

Joel is a genius he's underappreciated by far
That's a shame that you haven't showed us what was in Impulses book when he killed you cause it was so iconic and funny

i love how they both immediately accepted killing each other to avoid hurting the mumbo jumbo pandas

I can’t be the only one who screamed at Grian and Impulse for several minutes for not realizing that they both had that goal.

They were all fantastic escape rooms and videos but I have to say this video was the best because Joel is just blimming hilarity personified.
Also, it was super easy to understand him lol. He sounds like Zedeath and I have watched Zed’s Halloween special episode from season 6 (ep 13) a million times so I’m fluent by now lol

‘He’s smart, and he’s small’
What a way to describe your friends

Hermitcraft is really fun to watch, but I love seeing your group antics on creative worlds with just a few friends as well!

Absolutely love this building challenge. I'd love to see more

This made me so nostalgic for the old Grian build battle videos!

It's funny that Grian accuses Joel of not knowing what an escape room is when Grian didn't make an escape room either.

Joel’s panicked movements whenever he gets caught peeking are golden :’D Also him talking about turtles in that voice is too good! He sounds so evil yet so pure at the same time! Would love a full length demonic voice nature documentary hahaa

Its nice to see Grian make new content like this. keep it up Grain!

Love how half of Grian's course is just Mumbo brain rot.

“He’s smart, He’s small.”
Grain, 2022

I was kinda expecting Grian to ask Imulse "So... you got that axe too, aren't you" before entering the Mumbo Pandas room. Joel did the most expectable thing in the world and they fell for it

12:12 OK now I really want to see a Saw parody where the guy who set it up just keeps getting annoyed the people can't solve it, so he does it himself

I like this type of content and it’s good to see something non-hermitcraft once in a while, and this video was really cool!

Honestly I would love to see more collabs from Grian to mumbo. they're such good friends

its been a while since I've seen this type of collaboration between grain and friends, and it is still epic!

Grian's first room sounds like the story of the turtle and the bunny. The bunny goes and relaxes and does other things while the turtle just slowly wins the race

Grian’s cries for help (wanting Mumbo back) genuinely bring a tear to my eye.

Joels escape room is actually super fun and creative, even if it does revolve around the brutal slaughter of innocent animals.

I love how much Grian comments about Mumbo - they're the most iconic duo really it's adorable :)

The immersive portals mod would have been perfect for the most mind bending escape room ever.
They should also add immersive portals to bedrock edition.

4:51 “It’s not a secret, it’s just me diarrhoea Mumbo Shrine” Now you can’t unhear that.

Joel's escape room reminds me a lot of the classic Escapecraft adventure map.

I love the last challenge Joel made. It's just the Prisoner's Paradox "Which I Love". I'd bet he would have rewarded them if they just killed the pandas.

Alternative title: Joel and Grian annoying each other the whole time whilst Impulse is the peace maker

This was a fun collab! You sure love your infinity rooms! This one is my favorite! I miss Mumbo too. I loved watching all the videos.

This was amazing. Especially the end.
I hope there's a second Crack at these.

I love when you do these kinds of videos Grian! you should do more like these! (Maybe bring back build swaps? :>)

The winner was us! Infinite shenanigans for everyone! This one brings back the build swap joy with a dark twist. Lovin it!

“These are my friends, Joel and Impulse. He’s smart(Impulse) and he’s small(Joel).” What a way to start the video.

I appreciate the subtitles a lot. Thank you Grian.

Great video idea! Making people go watch the 2 other videos as well … brilliant! Keep the content coming!

I am excited to just see Grains reaction to whenever Mumbai comes back in Hermitcraft

I feel like this is like a summoning for Mumbo to come back officially.

I think I have NEVER laughed out loud more from an MC vid... I'll definitely gonna start watching Joel now. When Grian pressed the random button that kills him .. and he laughs.. comes back, then the little Joel evil laugh after is soooo freakin funny!!!

God I love the use of the prisoner’s dilemma. Very clever on Joel’s part.

This was incredibly wholesome... Mumbo really is Grian's best friend.

This definitely gives off old school build swap vibes, amazing video

I love the whole “I miss jumbo” vibe this gives off, and to be honest, *i agree.*

Snot, drool and tears dripping from my face from laughing so hard -- this may have been the funniest bit of content since the NewsRadio when AndyDick gets tripped up by the cable and pulled against the door to Andy's office and he doesn't know what's happening to himself

As soon as he said "'The inner machinations of my mind are an enigma'.", I liked the video immediately.

"The nicest fella a Grian could ever know"
Sounds like the best compliment a man can get

What a nostalgic video! Feels like watching classic Grian again

These are my favourite people together and I'm always so happy to see them hangout together

that was cool and fun. Just a slight downside was how much Joel was telling you. I feel a more subtle approach would have been more interesting (with bigger hints if you really struggle). Also the 2 axes in the end were quite obvious NGL...

I'm so shocked that Grian didn't spot a prisoners' dilemma when offered the axe.

Now this is some classic Grian content

I miss Mumbo.

Very nice escape rooms, guys! Grians would be so hard to get out of though. :/

im glad to see this type of content from Grian again!

I saw what Joel did at the and there, and I love it! And Impulse masking it and telling Grian to go first made it so much better!

Thank you for the subtitles: the voice changer made everything Joel said 10x funnier

The fact that like almost every episode he says he misses mumbo is sad and wholesome at the same time.we miss mumbo to though.

Man, it’s really been a while since Grian uploaded a video like this. I really enjoyed it!

What bothers me about Grian’s situation is that Grian misses Mumbo so much and thinks Mumbo’s still out biking while Mumbo has been back for months and has not told Grian yet

The more Grian mentions how much he misses Mumbo, the sadder I get.

I remember, making my sister an escape room, it's a massive one and after that she told me she enjoyed it. Took me months to finish, sadly I accidentally deleted the world

Grian’s experience in creative shines! So fun!

I kinda wanna use the Portal texture for some of my build. I feel like theres some really cool stuff to be done.

I'm really expecting Mumbo to just....appear on the server like nothing happened and with no warning. Cant wait for it!

I'm so grateful for the life series for introducing me to Joel

I absolutely love how this video has turned out, but it does give me one question... does this variety content mean potential build swap in the future?

Actually, it would be very interesting to see how the escape room built by Mumbo would look like.
So I joined Grian's "obsession"

I would die for a whole series of Demon!Joel leading people through 'escape rooms'!

i miss these build battles, and stuff the OG stuff, still love the hermitcraft vids tho. thanks for the entertainment. good to see these videos every once and a while.

It’s so fun to see you making videos about something other than Hermitcraft!
