I recently made a post where I figured out how much water is really contained in a water source block, and therefore, how strong steve really is in Minecraft if he fills his inventory with blue ice in shulker boxes. I then realized, Steve can also hold animals (including Donkeys) on a lead.

This post will be using the same numbers from my last post where possible—check my page or r/camman18 to find my original, titled, “Steve Is Stronger Than Previously Thought…”

A lead’s reach relative to the player is 12 blocks. There are 7153 blocks within this radius of steve; not including his own two blocks, that’s 7151 blocks. 24 entities can fit on a single block before they begin to die. 24 x 7151 = 171,624 Donkeys. So, Steve could theoretically hold up to 171,624 donkeys on leads.

2 leads are made with 1 slime ball (with the “slime” having a density reasonably comprable to water—1000kg per meter cubed) and 4 string; 1 slime ball is 1/9 a slime block, so it’s weight is about 111.11kg (1000/9 kg). String was 250kg per string, so 1000kg (a block of wool) for 4 string. One lead in minecraft weighs (1000 + 1000/9)/2 = ~555.556kg

A saddle is crafted with 3 leather (crafted with 4 rabbit hides each; .14(4) = 0.56 kg per leather) and 1 iron ingot (1 block of iron is 7874kg; 7874/9 = 874.889 kg per ingot). .56(3) + 874.889 = 876.569. A saddle in Minecraft weighs about 876.569 kg.

Each donkey can hold a chest (crafted with 8 wood planks), which each weighs 1480kg.

A donkey itself weighs about 300kg on average (from google).

Each donkey’s chest can hold up to 15 items—fill each donkey’s chest with 15 shulker boxes, like described in the post.

There are 171,624 donkeys, each with it’s own weight, and 1 lead, 1 saddle, 1 chest, and 15 of the shulker boxes.

The added weight of all the donkeys is:

171624 x (555.556 + 876.569 + 1480 + 300 + (15 x (27 x 64 x 1000 x 81(2,193,557,065,844) + 27(1113.34) + 2292.5)))

= 7.904×10²⁶

= 790,400,075,345,485,624,323,843,025.8 kg

which is about 1,742,533,886,417,634,459,600,462,472.06
or 1.7 octillion pounds.

Together, with the last equation, the total weight Steve can hold in Minecraft is:

171624 x (555.556 + 876.569 + 1480 + 300 + (15 x (27 x 64 x 1000 x 81(2,193,557,065,844) + 27(1113.34) + 2292.5))) + (36 x 27 x 64 x 1000(81(2,193,557,065,844))) + (36 x 27(1113.34)) + 36(2292.5)

= 7.904×10²⁶

= 790,411,128,346,119,738,232,719,722.28 or almost 800 Septillion kg
= 1,742,558,254,112,871,735,987,798,300.66 or about 1.7 octillion pounds.

So, Steve from Minecraft is strong enough to hold 1,742,558,254,112,871,735,987,798,300.66 (1.7 Octillion) Pounds.
