MrBeast Gaming’s 1 Minute vs 10 Year Minecraft Build Showdown","## The Challenge: From 60 Seconds to a Decade of Building\n\nOn his MrBeast Gaming channel, Jimmy Donaldson sets up a sweeping Minecraft experiment: compare builds made in as little as one minute to projects spanning up to ten years.\n\nAcross the video, Jimmy and his friends tour:\n\n- A 1‑minute build\n- A 1‑hour samurai house\n- A 1‑day fantasy kingdom\n- A 1‑week Roman–Greek city\n- A 1‑month underwater metropolis\n- A 1‑year desert megacity\n- A 10‑year realistic modern city\n\nEach creator gets to showcase not just scale, but creativity, storytelling, and technical detail. At the end, Jimmy and three others each award $10,000 to their favorite build, keeping the incentives consistent with MrBeast’s hallmark challenge-and-reward format.\n\n---\n\n## The Shortest Builds: 1 Minute and 1 Hour\n\n### Cheetah’s 1‑Minute Sprint\n\nThe video opens with a timer and pure speed. Builder Cheetah has just 60 seconds, and Jimmy repeatedly notes how fast and precise he is:\n\n- Cheetah switches rapidly between different wood types\n- Frames and decorates a bed in seconds\n- Even manages to cook potatoes and offer them to the hosts before time runs out\n\nThe resulting build is small but polished for the time constraint. The potato detail sticks with Jimmy so much that, by the end of the video, he calls it a “$10,000 potato” and selects Cheetah as his personal winner.\n\n### Qu1nten’s 1‑Hour Samurai House\n\nThe 1‑hour builder, Qu1nten, can’t be present because he’s taking an architecture exam in real life. He leaves a recorded message explaining his build:\n\n- It’s the home of a powerful samurai\n- The house includes layered architecture and custom samurai swords\n- Pandas enjoy the garden area outside\n- A secret room hides “the heaviest object in the universe”\n\nThe crew searches for the hidden room and eventually finds an emerald block labeled as a joke about Nolan’s mom. Jimmy emphasizes that, given the one-hour limit, the level of structure and detail is impressive.\n\n---\n\n## Expanding Worlds: 1 Day and 1 Week\n\n### IcyBuilds’ 1‑Day Fantasy Kingdom\n\nBuilder IcyBuilds has 24 hours and uses them to create a full fantasy island kingdom split into four distinct biomes:\n\n- Desert\n- Forest\n- Wetland plateau\n- Volcanic craters\n\nKey elements include:\n\n- Giant glowing crystal structures serving as the kingdom’s energy source\n- A central main build anchoring the city\n- Fully furnished interiors throughout, including a bedroom specifically labeled as Jimmy’s room\n- A massive butterfly pollinating fields of flowers\n- Fantasy-style mountains with unusual “vacuum” structures integrated into their sides\n\nJimmy describes the one-day build as “magical” and says Icy’s work exceeds his expectations. Later, BTMC selects Icy as his $10,000 pick.\n\n### ThaMango’s 1‑Week Roman–Greek Civilization\n\nIn a week, ThaMango creates something closer to a full civilization than a city, drawing on Roman and Greek influences:\n\n- Large classical statues (one notably muscular figure gets reactions from the group)\n- A Colosseum where Jimmy and Caylus joke-fight with swords while Jimmy’s fiancée Thea watches\n- A dock area with multiple ships, each exporting different resources such as honey, ores, diamonds, and emeralds\n\nHowever, when Jimmy inspects random buildings, he finds they’re mostly empty inside. He contrasts this with his preference for “quality over quantity,” both in building and in the upload frequency of the channel. The missing interiors reduce his enthusiasm for this build compared with others.\n\n---\n\n## Deep Detail: 1 Month and 1 Year\n\n### Shovel’s 1‑Month Underwater Metropolis\n\nThe one‑month build, by Shovel (shovel241), drops the group into a high-tech underwater city. According to Shovel, he poured about 500+ hours into it, with additional help from friends.\n\nNotable design choices include:\n\n- An entire city enclosed underwater with a visible monorail system\n- Streets and layouts designed to feel immersive “anywhere you go”\n- A floating bus and detailed storefronts, including a ramen shop with fully built interior\n- A city narrative based on a book Shovel wrote in college\n- A research-focused society funding itself by running a highly detailed casino, complete with:\n  - Gaming floors\n  - A high-roller room with a custom chandelier\n- A multi-story library reminiscent of major real-world libraries, packed with shelves across multiple levels\n\nWhen Jimmy asks why they should pick him, Shovel emphasizes the personal significance of the project and its high level of detail. Thea, herself an author, is especially drawn to the fact that the city is based on Shovel’s own novel. At the end, she chooses Shovel as her $10,000 winner, specifically mentioning that connection author-to-author.\n\n### Timtenth’s 1‑Year Desert Megacity\n\nTimtenth’s build is a sprawling desert city called the Kingdom Osirion, inspired by Egyptian and Babylonian architecture and culture. He says he built everything himself over the course of a year.\n\nKey features:\n\n- The city covers roughly 200 million blocks, according to Tim\n- Two rings of walls encircle the settlement\n- A main gate leads into a wealthy desert metropolis with extensive water features\n- A central pyramid-temple dedicated to Anubis, which Tim describes as the first and largest structure he built\n- Rich interior spaces:\n  - Treasure rooms full of gold and valuables\n  - A central Anubis statue\n  - Multiple additional temples with their own interiors\n- The Hanging Gardens of Babylon recreated in Minecraft, stacked with greenery and vertical gardens\n\nJimmy and the others are struck by the sheer size and density of detail. Tim explains that after finishing his bachelor’s degree in architecture, he focused full time on the project and dreams of doing Minecraft building as a full-time career.\n\nHe admits the project wasn’t financially “worth it” in conventional terms but says he’s proud of the result. Jimmy asks whether $10,000 would help, to which Tim answers that it would, and later Jimmy selects Tim as his own $10,000 winner.\n\n---\n\n## A Decade of Work: Greenfield, the 10‑Year City\n\nThe final build is a collaborative project called Greenfield, introduced by Wiseguy. Unlike the solo or small-team builds earlier, this one has been in development for about ten years with a large group of contributors.\n\nWiseguy describes it as one of the largest and most realistic Minecraft cities, and the video highlights several aspects:\n\n- Over 10,000 buildings across the city\n- Unique interior design for each building, not just façades\n- High realism in urban planning and building layout\n- Detailed public infrastructure, including:\n  - Skyscrapers with escalators, lobbies, signage, elevators, and bathrooms\n  - A burning building scene complete with fire trucks and active fire, which Caylus comically gets himself trapped in\n  - A vast airport with visible terminals and parked planes\n\nWiseguy estimates the project has collectively absorbed more than 100,000 hours of work. The building they tour in detail took him personally more than a year to complete.\n\nHe also notes that he started Greenfield back in middle school and is still building now, even with a full-time job, girlfriend, and apartment. His long-term vision is to keep expanding the city for decades, potentially involving future generations of players and even his own kids.\n\n---\n\n## The $10,000 Picks and Final Takeaways\n\nAt the end of the video, Jimmy and three others each pick a different winner to receive $10,000:\n\n- **Jimmy** chooses **Cheetah (1‑minute build)**, citing the unforgettable potato and the impressive speed and precision.\n- **Thea** chooses **Shovel (1‑month underwater city)**, appreciating the depth and the fact it’s based on Shovel’s own college novel.\n- **BTMC** chooses **IcyBuilds (1‑day fantasy kingdom)**, impressed by its creativity, distinct biomes, and fully furnished interiors.\n- **Jimmy (for his own final pick)** ultimately awards **Timtenth (1‑year desert city)** $10,000, acknowledging the enormous scale, architectural depth, and personal sacrifice involved.\n\nEven though Greenfield’s 10‑year city is arguably the largest and most realistic build, the prize decisions reflect a mix of personal connection, creative storytelling, and the visible intensity of effort from each creator.\n\n---\n\n## Summary\n\nIn this MrBeast Gaming video, Jimmy Donaldson uses Minecraft to showcase how time transforms creativity—from a one-minute bed build with cooked potatoes to a ten-year city with 10,000 fully furnished structures.\n\nThe featured builds highlight:\n\n- Raw execution under extreme time pressure (Cheetah’s 1‑minute build)\n- Professional-level architectural planning (the 1‑hour and 1‑year projects by real architects)\n- Story-driven worldbuilding (Shovel’s underwater city based on his own novel)\n- Large-scale fantasy and historical inspiration (IcyBuilds’ kingdom and ThaMango’s Roman–Greek civilization)\n- Long-term collaborative ambition (Greenfield’s 10‑year modern city)\n\nBy closing with multiple $10,000 awards, Jimmy reinforces a core element of his broader YouTube identity: pairing high-concept challenges with tangible rewards for the people who pour time, skill, and passion into their work.","\u003Ch2>The Challenge: From 60 Seconds to a Decade of Building\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003Cp>On his MrBeast Gaming channel, Jimmy Donaldson sets up a sweeping Minecraft experiment: compare builds made in as little as one minute to projects spanning up to ten years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across the video, Jimmy and his friends tour:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>A 1‑minute build\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>A 1‑hour samurai house\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>A 1‑day fantasy kingdom\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>A 1‑week Roman–Greek city\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>A 1‑month underwater metropolis\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>A 1‑year desert megacity\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>A 10‑year realistic modern city\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\n\u003Cp>Each creator gets to showcase not just scale, but creativity, storytelling, and technical detail.

In their official video **\"How To Make Pasta Al Dente\"**, they turn a how‑to guide into a full song, mixing serious cooking advice with playful warnings about what *not* to do.\n\nThe lyrics walk through the steps of cooking pasta al dente while poking fun at common mistakes, especially those made outside Italy. Beneath the comedy, though, they give a straightforward, practical method you can actually follow.\n\n---\n\n## Choosing and Adding the Pasta\n\nLionfield start with the basics: getting the pasta into a properly boiling pot.\n\nKey ideas from the song:\n\n- **Shape doesn’t matter for doneness**  \n  > \"It doesn't matter which shape you got \u002F Long or short, I really don't care\"\n  \n  Any dry pasta shape can be cooked al dente as long as you watch the time and texture.\n\n- **But don’t break spaghetti**  \n  > \"But if you pick spaghetti, don't you dare to break them in \u002F We will call the police soon.\"\n\n  This is a classic Italian pet peeve: breaking long pasta like spaghetti before cooking. Lionfield exaggerate with the \"police\" joke, but it underlines an authentic cultural preference—keep long pasta long.\n\n- **Use a boiling pot of water**  \n  > \"Take your pasta and put it in a boiling pot\"\n\n  The water should already be at a full boil before you add the pasta, so it starts cooking evenly and doesn’t turn gummy.\n\n---\n\n## What *Not* to Do: Olive Oil and Wall Tests\n\nThe video calls out two common myths in a pretty direct way.\n\n- **Don’t add olive oil to the water**  \n  > \"Don't pour the olive oil in the water because it's a scam.\"\n\n  The idea that oil in the water keeps pasta from sticking is widely repeated but misleading. Lionfield label it a \"scam\" in the lyrics. The actual sticking problem is better handled by:\n  - using enough water\n  - keeping the water at a strong boil\n  - stirring the pasta in the first minutes\n\n- **Don’t throw pasta at the wall**  \n  > \"Once I heard that some people from all over the world throw their spet on the wall and if they stick they think it's ready. God forgives them but I don't.\"\n\n  The \"throwing spaghetti at the wall\" test is another myth. In the song, they treat it almost like a culinary sin. Sticking to a wall doesn’t reliably indicate al dente; it mostly means the surface is starchy.\n\nTheir alternative: read the box, then rely on tasting, not tricks.\n\n---\n\n## Timing, Tasting, and the Box Instructions\n\nA big focus of the song is that al dente is about **timing and tasting**.\n\n- **Check the clock, but don’t worship it**  \n  > \"Check your clock and ste every now and then\"  \n  > \"If you check the box you find the cooking time while it's soft and wrong.\"\n\n  The package gives an approximate cooking time. Lionfield point out it’ll get *soft* if you follow it blindly. Their message: use it as a guideline, not a guarantee.\n\n- **Taste as you go**  \n  > \"And when it's almost ready, take your food a spoon \u002F Taste a piece or two \u002F Please don't let it overcook.\"  \n  > \"The secret is to taste it over and over until it's almost ready.\"\n\n  Their main rule: keep tasting.
