Have you seen YouTube videos where Minecrafters shrink to the size of an ant? It happens. Some YouTubers use mods, but there are other ways to do it as well. Look no further if you want an easy way to get smaller without cluttering your device with mods and add-ons.
Steps

Part 1 of 2:
Before Shrinking
-
1Mark off a straight horseshoe shape with any wood planks. Don't make it too small. A four by five is a great size choice.
-
2Fill in the top with slabs. There should be space under the slabs. You can make a design if you want, but keep it wooden.Advertisement
-
3Place a boat under the slab roof. If a minecart fits on your version then use a minecart instead of a boat.[1]

Part 2 of 2:
Shrinking
-
1Hop in the boat. If you do this on creative you won't die of suffocation.[2]
- Know that you can only get in the boat if you are next to it, not on the slabs.
-
2Move away from the edge you got in from. This will be slower than moving on water.
-
3Hide your graphical user interface (GUI). This hides the boat controls so that the viewer doesn't know you are in a boat.[3]

QuestionWhy does it have to be wood? I tried it with quartz and stone and it worked just fine.Community AnswerIt doesn't have to be wood. Most people have wooden slabs more readily available to them than quartz or stone slabs, so the article was most likely intended to make things easier.
