This is the story and theory of why Ghasts are sad in Minecraft. Do Minecraft ghasts have depression or something, a descendant of squids? The reason is not what you might expect. This theory was insane!

Detailed explanation of why Ghasts are sad: They are robots as shown in the Minecraft Mobestiary. They were probably created alongside the ghasts due to their similarities (both fly, shoot fireballs, and are robots). The ghast's design might have been inspired by squids. Souls might have been put in the ghast and blaze. The blaze was created using evil angry souls that were trapped in blazes too. The ghasts were the souls of ancient builders that did well unfortunately got trapped in Minecraft ghasts.
Ancient builders' souls are stuck in ghast. A ghast tear is their soul and since they were good they heal the souls of the living. If ghasts die, the soul is just trapped in another ghast.
To free the souls, you must bring them to the Overworld and then kill them, then they're finally free! The tragic tale & theory of Minecraft ghasts...

I never thought of that
I never realized Ghasts looked sad, I was always too busy being scared to death and running away.
Oh... i knew they weree sad but same but i knew their sadd but idk why LOL
I was too busy yelling “son of a biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttttcchhh!” because they blew up my nether floor again so i have to fill up the holes while hitting fireballs back at the ghast and shooting them with arrows.

i think dragonic's "Player's soul trapped in a ghast" is right, because at 7:17, you may notice that the ghast tear is nearly shaped like a player's body that was shapeshifted and shrunk as a tear, so the soul of the player could be trapped in tears that ghasts drop.
wow i like this one
Your right!
Oml that's true
It also looks like a mob egg
true
This is my theory on why Ghasts can fly: Ghasts could either be extremely light or hollow inside. This might explain the low HP. With this hollow/light body, Ghasts inhale hot Nether air, and make it even hotter using it’s fiery breath. Since Hot air rises, the air inside Ghasts lifts them up. They can then fly down by exhaling that hot air. They can do this in in other dimensions, too. It just requires more effort to make the air hot.

Almost like Hot air balloons.. Interesting
so to make them come down into the portal to the over world using that logic you could cool them down to make them go down and be freed
Ghast tear: you save me, plesae free me! The player: Brew potion out of it
ghast tear: NO NO! the player: drinks

By the way the reason why "Johnny" and the wither don't attack ghasts is definitely so that they don't drift into a very inconvenient place going after a ghast or end up killing themselves trying. It's probably just a game mechanic feature that doesn't have to do with lore, but this is a very interesting interpretation if it was for lore purposes
But don’t zoglins attack ghasts?
@@sboy2044 no idea i didn't mention it in my comment but if they don't it's the same idea. UPDATE: zoglins don't attack ghasts. they attack everything except creepers (so the creeper doesn't blow them up), ghasts (theory applies), and other zoglins
What about blazes then? They fly too
@@Fence_Pilgrammed this is a decent argument, but blazes specifically don't really work because of the way blazes move and attack. they don't even move backwards when you charger at them, and they don't really fly super high or far away, and actually regularly come down. ghasts move far away and are hard to chase down already, and on top of that they fly really high. another possible argument is phantoms but phantoms do swoop down often, it's just that zombie hoglins would have to attack them first. maybe, idk
In creative mode I once spawned a ghast in a bunch of webs, and summoned a wither. The wither shot the ghast with a wither skull, then the ghast got angry. The ghast got so angry that it killed the wither! The wither was at full health before it attacked the ghast!
This is my theories when you activate a beacon, its automaticily give regen, beacon need nether star, ghast tear tear like you said are souls, we can imagine that human soul conpressed into a ghast than a tear give regen because i think that its like water, you need to purify it to drink, maybe human soul give regen to other humans, compressed into a soul than into a probably quartz tear than mixed with blaze powder power can "purify" it to give health to another player. Thats it, thanks for reading my theory !
I have a theory to add to your theory, as you said, ghasts are programmed or controlled to kill players without hesitation. And the souls trapped inside them can’t do anything about it.. notice how ghasts are the only mob that can destroy your way out of the nether? (Talking about how if a ghasts shoots at you and hits the nether portal then you would have to relight it) This means they are programmed to have fireballs strong enough to destroy your way out, and yes, without the souls will, this means it will be harder for them to get their way out, and, more harder for the souls, practically giving them no hope.. that’s the only thing I can add
i love your theory
Who programmed them and why was it important to trap humans in the nether if they're gonna end up in it either way
i agree with the souls being trapped but maybe instead of robots it’s the ancient builders who trapped criminal’s souls in ghosts using spells and the reason they attack players is because they think they are the ancient builders that trapped them for eternity

The wither is made from souls, and the wither drops the nether star, and a END CRSTAL heals the ender dragon, soooooo yeah! Pls like so dragonic will see :)
Thats what I was thinking
It can also be respawned with crystals, which may suggest the Dragon is not natural. In retrogaming's video on endermen, he suggested that the endermen built the obsidion towers all around with crystals on top of them (resembling an end portal) in attempt to reach a new dimension. They then spawned the enderdragon by accident. This does align with that. I personally don't think the enderdragon is natural because it requires complex items like crystals to survive, also notice how they were made to be easily breakable, probably as a failsafe (and obsidion needs lava to spawn naturally, which doesn't fit in the cold and desolate end dimension.) After the wither, they saw the nether star, souls combined together (origin of the Vex?) And knew the power they had made, so they tried more souls together, created another mob in the nether, mass killed it (The fossils in the nether come from this unknown mob.) And probably harvested something powerful that could be added in a future update. Then they moved onto the next mob: the warden. They made them to guard the strongholds, but probably killed some too. This is where they got the materials for the end portal (The designs look similar) and they went in, colonised the place, made the enderdragon, and got stuck there. The enderdragon was finally too much for them to handle. Proof is that this was probably the first time ghast years were used instead of soul sand or nether stars. The crystals, these souls were in a block, not a mob, and retained it's natural soul energy because it didn't need to power anything because it was in a block. This have it more energy to invested *souly* into the Dragon. (see what I did there?) The Dragon wiped them all out. If I could see some images of the Dragon in that mob book it would help, but I don't have one. I hope you found this tolerable, feel free to expand on or disprove this, and don't forget to subscribe!
My side of the theory: If they are truly robotic why don’t they make mechanical sounds and if they are robots they need to rust at some point so how old is the nether exactly?
WAIT I FOUND SOMETHING THAT PIECES UP THIS THEORY EVEN MORE.. The ancient Builders made thee ghast, they made hundreds. They were robot machines, they designed them in a peculiar way where no clanking sounds. When the Ancient Builderswere once in a Ghast machine, an apocalypse hit the nether. It was once a beautiful land where everything was friendly, When the apocalypse hit all of the builders either hid in their machines or ran for their lives. The workers in the ghast robots, got smashed to bits leaving only a soul. The sould learned t controll the ghast, but the controls were all broken off the blast. So they could control them, but not fully. Causing a BUNCH of sadness, social problems, etc.
@@edwardfan1238 oh god….
Fun Fact : The Ghast was originally spawn in the overworld but that would be annoying, so they decided to live in the Nether instead. So meaning maybe they actually live in the overworld which is their REAL HOME.

William afton be like: i should have done that,

plot twist: ghast were actually souls that always wanted to be free, but they are not meant to be free from the nether. They scream for help and they always cry, they shoot fireballs because it was thousands of souls that are trapped. When you kill them, u set them free along.
“White smelly marshmallows “ That part actually made them cry
In addition, most mobs that go after "every type of mob except for the type that they are part of" exclude ghasts. Withers attack any mob except the undead...or ghasts
Oh, that's creepy, but it also makes sense.
The wither attacks zombified Piglins who don’t get healed by regeneration potions,so the wither does attack the undead

Theory: The light from the beacon is the release of a thousand souls
Yeah
@Aristides Cobo no the effects is what happens when one person has the power of thousands souls
@Aristides Cobo yes seen it in someone’s vid before
A few souls from the soul sand of the wither merged into on ingredient.
Really
My theory of why the wither and the ghast tear is related: One thing i know is that the wither grabs as many souls as it can to power them, when the wither is killed, it drops the wither's heart, full of souls, like the soul theory for ghast tears.
this is such a good theory. i had a similar idea once when i was trying to get the uneasy alliance advancement and looked more closely at the description, but i just wasn't able to put it together. again, this is a great theory and you earned yourself one more subscriber
"This is why Ghasts are sad. Imagine, you just died-"
Well ghasts are happy if you die
Wow
Imagine u die to a creeper with full diamond armor
@@knox9739 id kms irl
A theory I heard once is that when a human player kills a ghast it frees its soul and it leaves a single tear as a thank you for ending their suffering
So sad but so true 0n0
or maybe when you brew with a ghast tear it dissolves and releases the soul, and it gives regeneration as thanks
Another piece of evidence for this theory is that in Minecraft Dungeons, there is an item called the soul healer, which does exactly what it says. This is further proof that souls have regenerative powers, and that things like the ghast tear and beacon are composed of/contain souls
I think the nether star is an opened version of the Ghast tear, since it is the same color and about the same shape in the pointy sides.
I never ever thought about this But now we will have the answer anyway Thank you draconic!
Iconic
Idea. What's the notch apple. It's a mystery cuz they give you regeneration fire protection and extra hearts. They olso can't be find on the nether so they don't have soul power.
All supernatural food
Imagine it's an Adam's apple from heaven.
they actually can be found in the nether, in ruined portal chests! that actually explains that they went through the portal and buried it somewhere in the overworld, so i think they have soul power or something similar
I cant believe a theory about a game can make me cry! Awesome, ridicilously awesome!

I love how there's cats in the Ghast's head. 😄 and you also forgot about Gilded Blackstone as an ore.

Edit: Gilded Blackstone isn't an ore.

I'm pretty sure Johnnys don't attack ghasts as a reference to the shining, Jack (or Johnny) was killing to impress the ghosts of the overlook. The ghasts are a collection of spirits, so Johnny doesn't want to kill the ghosts he's trying to impress.

me: shoots a ghast with a bow ghast: drops ghast tear ghast tear: *falls in lava*

Actually it’s confirmed in the mobiestary that they aren’t actually sad, it’s a trick for you to get closer so they can shoot you with a fireball Edit: also, ghast are definitely NOT robots. They look nothing like the guardian, which is quite obviously a robot, and they ghast has no redstone, that’s just body part and the thing that look lik mechanical things is just the fireball making process the ghast uses.
I like the tear theory, but honestly, I feel like it is just a solid tear, they have adapted a single way to cry, which is a very depressing thought.
you: The ghast has a sound that sounds like its yelling help. C418's cat: bruh can you stop disturbing me I'm trying to sleep
I actually have a theory that cats and ghasts are actually connected, I haven't completely ironed out the holes in the theory but it kind of goes as follows: Ghasts are connected to cats. I say this because they are connected in multiple ways. Cats are usually said to have 9 lives which is coincidently how many legs/tentacles ghasts have. They also make a cat like noise when idle, this has been proved even by C418 saying he took his cat's angry noise as the sound file for ghasts. There is also a song that only plays in the nether called Ballad of cats, which also may confirm that ghasts are actually cats after they die. Even there names are similar, ghast just sounds like a combination of ghost cat. Also the fact that ghasts drop gunpowder might also be a nod to creepers being scared of cats. Again I don't quite know if its a solid theory but there are definitely a lot of similarities between the 2. I might make a video about sometime but idk (Edit) The fact that there is also an achievement called AN UNEASY ALLIANCE when you bring a ghast out of the nether and kill it which definitely seems like it might be hinting that ghasts were once an overworld creature but I'm really only scratching the surface here.
I also agree that blazes could be skeletons because the bars circling around them could be bones.
I also think that the Guardian is mechanical as well. Notice: it’s side texture is the exact same as prismarine bricks, and it drops prismarine. This show it’s probably mechanical as well because it is in a structure and protects the gold in the center as people probably wanted to stop people from stealing their gold.
The achievement says "RESCUE the ghast from the nether and bring it SAFELY BACK HOME to the overworld." More proof on that theory.
After watching the video, the story behind the Ghast is really sad if you think of it Almost feel sorry for all the Ghasts I’ve shot after it when it shoots me with a fireball
This makes so much sense everything lines up
Dude i love ur theory im gonna sub

@@stevenorrington473 may be all were ancient mumbo jumbos & one of them still survived & has a yt channnel
Theory: Glow squids are just a normal squids, but there is this unknown person (might be the evil ancient builder?) That try to do some experiment with glowstone dust and squids, so they try to do some experiment and try to combined those together, the person actually made it, They actually not rlly "glow" because, the person failed to make it glow, but its kinda glow, but don't produce light, so the unknown person don't know what to do with it so they just put it in the ocean and let it "glow"
Very AMAZING Theory. Best Of LUCK w/ Other Theories, Too. Mr. Dragonic
The sound a ghast makes when it dies (sounds like a last breath or wheeze) could be the soul escaping

Look at Ghast and after look at strider ,hmmm ,see the similarity?
I have a theory on why wither skeletons exist. It's based off this theory. If the soul got pushed into the ghast, what happened to their body? What i think is, when they died, their body got burned up by the intense heat of the nether. The bodies were picked up and brought back to life. But without a soul, they couldn't feel anything. They were told to protect the nether fortresses while they were gone. They did as they were told and they protect them. Their creators never came back and they've been guarding them ever since.
My theory: 1.Ghast have fireball in the stomach, so it cried cuz its hurt? And it shoots fireball to player cuz it want the fireball in its stomach to gone? 2. When we go ahead and look in Uneasy Alliance achievement we’ll see it says “Rescue a ghast from the nether, bring it safely *home* to the overworld.. and then kill it” Is ghast belongs to the over world? Was it the human soul? (Sorry if some of the thing i type is wrong, im new to minecraft btw)
New theory: Gasts are the souls of the monsters that were the nether fosils.
Sensible
Makes more sense
U should do a video asking why piglins ask for gold! I would love to know
you finally reached 100k nice!
The Ghast is so depressed looking because: No one wants to 'hang' with a fire-breathing ghost. It's never once managed to eat an ice cream without melting it before it even got close to its mouth. It can't get over the fact that Peter Capaldi is really leaving Doctor Who (searched this bad boi up)
I like the theory. One point where I have to object is the "Johnny" argument. The fact that a Johnny Vindicator doesn't attack Ghasts seems more like a Gameplay decision because it would be very hard to implement.
A moment of silent for kids who tried to die on soul sand/soil and expect to be trapped ;)

@@thisnormalgamer8376 nah dont do that apreciate the vid. Dont make people upset
My theory is similar but has a different ending so my ending is the souls are later transferred to villagers but since they were stuck in the nether for years they forgot how to build.craft and talk so this is how the villagers were made
the ghast tear is the same one as the supercharger (soulsphere) of the Doom universe supercharger is a marine soul, condensed and preserved, when the Doom guy grabs it, he "regenerate" 100 points of health if the tears are the same as those, then yeah... ghast tears are souls of some sort, used to create potions of regeneration
Lol I always thought for a long time that the tears in the ghast’s eyes were it’s actual eyes and it looked like it was saying “bruh” to you (look at this picture for reference: 6:49)
i have an idea for a new video: why do creepers not explode when glass are in front of them
Because it can damage the block without any player intervention
Because you're not in range of him. Creeper's maximum attack distance is by directly behind/front of you. technically you're 1 block away when you're behind a glass wall.
This is so good but I feel so bad for the ghast now that I just here’d the story of a ghast
The tears could just be the happiest of the soul leaving :(

My theory on striders:they are axalotls pushed in from the over world
My theory of ghast tears is that yes a nether star is also a trapped soul but why a nether star drops from a wither and a ghast tear from a ghast so maybe a nether star is a fused version of a ghast tear and when you turn them into a potion the soul is inside the potion but when you drink the pocion the soul gets away and stays with you for a couple seconds to regenerate you

woooooooow soooooo fuuuuuuunny
2:52 I think a strider came from a pig. Here are some reasons why. First, they look partly like a pig, except with only two legs because the top of them have little scrapes of the exact overworld pig color. Second, they can run fast on lava, saying that it was evolved from an animal that can run fast, but a pig could evolve to run fast on lava and a horse could to but that's it. Last, due to the tough conditions in the Nether, this horse-pig creature probably had to evolve to run on lava to survive.
Ik it’s fun to add story’s to games but ya’ll put a lot of thought into this game lol
First
I’m starting to feel real bad for throwing ghast tears in lava or just on the ground after watching this
3:37 actually if you see at the feet of striders they actually have netherite, that's why they float on lava. And for their origins ghast is barnacles, striders could be frogs and blazes are the most forgotten mob of Minecraft history, 'Tommo'
I think the reason Johnny Vindicators don't attack Ghasts is because maybe while the evil Evokers were trying to create a Totem of Undying using the soul energy that is in the soul sand of the nether, that contains the souls of the ancient builders, they discovered the quartz machines that the Ancient Builders had created. They then thought that the souls in the soul sand belonged to the Villagers that had wronged them. So they made it so that the souls are getting trapped inside the Ghasts and that it attacks anything human on sight. The Vindicators don't attack it because they want the souls to suffer. It's also possible that the reason the advancement "Uneasy Alliance" is to bring a Ghast to the overworld is that the Evokers and Vindicators wanted to use the Ghasts as weapons to destroy the Villagers. But then they decided against it when they discovered the Ravager. I will admit there are some holes in this theory, and that the evidence I presented was about as strong as a wooden hoe against a netherite block, but still, it's a possible theory.
after watching this video I now made an oath to free every ghast to the overworld
this actually made me cry😭
U might be right about the tears being human souls cuz it even has an outline of a human suspicious if u ask me
A lot of lore about Minecraft makes me happy:)
This is a great theory I love it =)
Maybe the ancient builders made ghasts to give other ancient builders a longer life since souls go inside ghasts. And Maybe something went wrong so that is why they are forced to kill the player.
every story and theories you post makes me sad
"White smelly Marshmallow" Gosh makes ghast sounds a lot smelly and cute at da same time
