  • Hey guys this is Mumbo, and welcome to ten ways to make traps by MagmaMusen.

  • Now before we start I just want to mention that we are doing a little video collaboration type thing, where I create 10 traps and Magma creates 10 traps as well.

  • That means if you watch both videos you will have 20 traps in total which I would say is pretty bonkers

  • But anyway I'm gonna hand it over to Magma now, I hope you enjoy!

  • 10 Ways to Make Traps

  • The First trap can be set up almost anywhere on an existing railway!

  • The only visible difference is a detector rail used as a trigger.

  • To make it even less visible, position the detector right after a turn. :]

  • It's this simple.

  • Now make a hole and fill it with whatever evil you feel like! :]

  • Cover up the inner workings of the trap with something that doesn't look too out of place.

  • Let's test it!

  • Works like a charm!

  • Lava at the bottom, a classic!

  • This one is really simple and hard to mess up! :]

  • You can place any type of block that is affected by gravity on top of the TNT.

  • Oh, $#%@..

  • [REBUILDING HALF OF MY ISLAND PLEASE STAND BY]

  • Let's just make one for now.

  • Try camouflaging it as much as you possibly can.

  • I guess I have to test it..

  • This is one that works best underground!

  • As with most of these, there's a trigger and some serious consequences. :]

  • I'll try staying away from TNT, since I don't want to blow up my little island..

  • Instead, I'm once again sending a signal to a bunch of pistons that will pull away the floor.

  • I'll skip ahead, I'm simply connecting the redstone you'll see in a bit.

  • Connect the redstone to a torch, that is placed on some diamond ore! (...or something else you would want to mine away at!)

  • The repeaters are optional, but my trap bugged out without them.

  • Cover it up and the trap is ready!

  • The trapping part is completely invisible, let's see if it works..

  • (I'm getting a bit of graphical glitches, it should be opening instantly!)

  • Again, add something underneath!

  • If you have the time, lure some creepers down into the hole and name them! Muaha!

  • Another railway trap!

  • It's effective and it's even simpler than the previous!

  • You can put every kind of punishment here you can think of.. Make it bad!

  • Add a sign. For personal entertainment!

  • You know what happens, but let's see it anyways..

  • This one is a classic!

  • This is also one of the simplest traps to make!

  • I'M AN IDIOT PLEASE STAND BY

  • Make sure you place the doors facing in the right direction.

  • Make the hole as deep as you want.

  • Make sure all the other signs are connected to the first sign!

  • You can of course add whatever you want to the hole, making it deadlier.

  • Let's take a look at a perfectly realistic scenario!

  • Phew, it's getting really hot out here..

  • Better stay hydrated!

  • Must be time for another sip!

  • So I guess this how I die..

  • This trap uses the trapped chest as a trigger for its one true purpose!

  • Since the trapped chest sends out a very weak signal, a redstone torch must be placed nearby.

  • You can use the signal to trap your victim in many ways, but I decided to get a bit creative with carpets.

  • A bit of lava should do the trick.. As long as the victim hasn't got too quick of a reaction.

  • You can place the dispensers where you think they'll be most effective!

  • ..And if 2 aren't enough, just add more!

  • This one is so simple I kind of feel bad for showing it to you..

  • Yet, it's one of the most scary ones to fall into.

  • Darn, forgot ladders..

  • There's no more to it!

  • I've made another one over here, which I'll get back to! That one's straight up evil..

  • If you want to increase your chances, make the petrfying pit less visible.

  • Adding a sign at the bottom is good manners

  • This one right over here is aggravating on a new level.

  • If you fall into it without a sword or shears, you'll have to wait for a while..

  • With this one, you have the time to tell a whole story..

  • This trap is nothing but stupid.. Maybe with a hint of annoying.

  • It can be used to trap mobs and idiots like me only.
