I do not know why this video is funny, but it definitely invokes laughter the first time you see it. In order for it to make sense, you have to understand a little about the game Minecraft. If you are devoid of Minecraft knowledge you should look here first.
So now that you understand Minecraft, prepare to be stunned. This video does contain a single instance of profanity, so if profanity bothers you please do not play the video:
Did he build this whole monstrosity by hand? Thankfully, no. The description for the video puts it this way:
The Minecraft world uses 1m^3 blocks, and so, I simply converted my already scaled plans into a format that minecraft could take and imported each deck in batch, leaving 4 spaces in between for walls
The original Enterprise is 642.5 Meters x 467.0 Meters x 137.5 Meters. This is about 3m per deck. Sadly, with the 1m deck you have to walk on, that only leaves 2m left over for hallway space. As your character is only 1.7m tall, you will be bumping your head around a lot. I decided to make the ship 22% bigger, so I could have 4 m per deck. That puts the final size @ 785m x 570m x 168m. I made my “pit” 800x600x180 to fit all 42 decks and almost made a critical error. Even though there are 42 decks on the enterprise, the 2nd deck is split into two half-decks, making actually 43. I made the pit bigger than she ship so I could have a little wiggle room and just missed making it too shallow.
