Remember that castle you made in Minecraft that you thought was amazing?

I just… I don’t have words for this.  The FIRST time I watched this video I just stared at my monitor wide eyed for one minute and forty three seconds.  I didn’t move, I didn’t make a sound.  I’ll admit, I’ve been out of the Minecraft scene for some time now, but is this a thing now?  Is animated Minecraft art a thing? YouTube user HATSUNEMIKUch has done a 'little' something.

100% of me wants to believe this wasn’t made the way I think it was.  I don’t want to think someone took THAT make time to make this video.  I don’t want to believe that much free time exists.  I will only be satisfied if someone told me that there is some sort of mod that magically captures things you build and then you can wire-frame animate them.  I just…

Don’t’ get me wrong, this is absolutely amazing; beyond humanly possible even.  However it was made, it’s mind blowing.  I’m going to continue to believe that this was made in a program though.  I’m basing my disbelief on the fact that her hair clips through her leg at points which leads me to belive it wasn't hand placed and to continue my faith in humanity.

The free time though, the free time…
