Sorry, this was made a very long time ago, and I never had time for pictures. You can just search Herabrine to find some though!

I have a theory, or even the truth of Herobrine. Settle down kiddies, I'll tell you a story.

Back in the early stages of classic, you could spawn the human mob by pressing G. This was an utterly boring and useless feature, so Notch removed it (He was the head and only developer at the time). So life went on into alpha. Now Notch has admitted that he isn't the best at coding, Herobrine is proof of this. What happened was when the human mob was removed, Notch left some shreds of it in the code by accident. He didn't notice his mistake and continued developing. So when alpha rolled around, something happened. The human mob's coding was scattered, and a secret project that Notch was working on was activated by accident. The random skin generator. The human mob's skin was randomized and screwed up by it, thus making those creepy eyes. This also explains a load of minecraft creepypastas based on other mysterious mobs. So, as the updates kept coming, Herobrine's coding kept getting scattered around, so Notch or any other mojangster couldn't stumble upon it. Eventually someone ran into Herobrine and all the meme and creepypasta bullshit started. By beta 1.5 Notch and Mojang were obviously horribly irritated by this so they skimmed the code to look for bugs. Just before 1.6 they found a parchment of Herobrine's code. So they removed it. As a half joke they put "removed Herobrine" on the changelog. Obviously the Herobrine encounters kept happening. So they kept going over the code and removing whatever they could, in every update they could. Then finally in 1.2.3/1.2.4 they spent an entire day pulverising every bit of Herobrine's code they could. My guess is that Herobrine may have been finally removed that day, but every once in a while someone sees a person with glowing eyes and the default skin in singleplayer...

Now, onto my opinion of all this. I don't believe that Herobrine is a supernatural being, nor do I believe he is fake. The above paragraph clearly shows you what I believe. Is it the truth? Only one person knows: Notch.

[KROME_Rainbow]

I'm fairly sure that there's no chance for code to be scrambled like that.

Responses like this make me lose faith in humanity.

Normally I would shrug this off and say "troll", but your thread is actually in depth. While I do not find Herobrine to be real (more an elaborate hoax, if you will), you do provide what seems to be useful information concerning Herobrine. But with the part about "not just being constrained to the game", you make him sound like Slenderman (aka. he's everywhere).

But again, great thread. I found it all very interesting.

@Anoonimouse: I feel the same. While I don't believe it, I do believe/like researching other supernatural things, so this subject is naturally very interesting to me.

Sounds like me xD

im scared to click on this...

It honestly isn't bad. It's a short story and a picture. The picture is him (in first person) staring into a small render fog and "Steve" with a green shirt staring back and blank eyes. So...

[KROME_Rainbow]

@MasterMack: I felt the same, haha.

@DrumMaster4: Thanks for the comments. Yeah, I'm sick of the " OMG i saw herobrine guys see this picture?! whatn that??????"

[Creeper22p]

I think he is in the jar. If you serch herobrine it will found this text files:  he ro br in e (herobrine) in all versions but 1.3.2. Is this it?

[Espaculer]

Herobrine isn't real

Did you actually read KROME's information? While I personally think this is all elaborate coding in the game as a sort of "scare" idea, the facts/text presented in the original post gives Herobrine life and meaning and explanation (not that that matters to you, it seems). But this wasn't a "Herobrine - real, fake, etc?" thread. This was a legitimate thread.

EDIT: Read my post from September 22 right above and I explain more...

[SuperFire131]

I am a very unspiritual person, I cannot believe in something if there isn't a proof or at least a theoretical possibility for it to exist, and Herobrine falls in neither of these categories.
Actual feedback on the text: It is a very interesting text, you are definitely good at writing factural texts, I wouldn't mind seeing some more from you.

[Blocksandblocks]

I have seen Herobrine in single player in the good ol' Alpha days. I saw him in fog just standing there. I didn't stare at him for long because I was terrified I just ran into my house and logged off. Never saw him since....is that a prank?

[sc1020]

Yep. Herobrine is fake. I'm glad somebody can prove it. You, sir, have truly looked up every single detail about herobrine.

[MightyPork]

To believe in ghosts is funny, but there is no definite proof for their nonexistence.
Believing in Herobrine is pure stupidity, as there is one.

How can anyone even admit the existence of Herobrine, if there is absolutely nothing proving his existence in the Minecraft source code? As an entity, and a quite complex one, it can't be just hidden somewhere in the hard-to-understand parts of the code.

ur so right.

[pickard101]

hello ive got a little name i call herobrine when i saw him i called him 'the lost entity'

[iSmile]

I think he's fake. There's no coding for him in the game files.

Unless Mojang sneaked all the coding into a hidden class file along with all the textures and such. Or maybe the file takes the Human texture and can manipulate and remove the pupils from there.

Either way, he definitely isn't in the PC version. However, I do believe he's in the Xbox version (Or was.)

If you look up the video "Strange Sounds in Minecraft Xbox" you can hear the player keeps hearing doors opening and closing. Then he looks in a window, and Herobrine can be seen behind the text on the screen. He wasn't noticed by the user, and when the user went behind the house to where Herobrine was spotted, he isn't there. I think that's real because his white eyes can clearly be seen, and that was before the Skin Packs came out. Also, he checked the player list moments before looking in the window, and it showed only he was on the server. Plus, Herobrine had no nameplate.

Real? Or just amazing editing?

[FireBrands57]

First I would like to say that like you Krome I am very interested in supernatural subjects and I believe in them to and now I would like to write about the time I THINK I  almost encountered Herobrine:      


I was playing on SMP and I was building a base for my faction so I went outside to get some wood when I saw it, a hole in the ground and light was coming from it so I told the rest of the faction to come And go in it with me ( I thought that an enemy faction was camping inside it ) so we jumped in and there was a few torches and a crafting table In it and a cave was connected to it so we went in the cave and eventually we got to a dead end and once we got there we decided that who ever was living in it had logged off so we all went back to the base but 1 of us stayed ( it was not me ) so after about 5 seconds the one who stayed yelled out in the chat A NAME TAG SOMEONE IS DOWN THERE so I told him to accept my teleport request but he had already returned to the base so I told him to show me where he saw the name tag and he showed me so he went back to the base and I was mining down because that's where he saw the tag but I found nothing and the next day our base was gone and so was the hole so I'm not sure if this was Herobrine or some troll but I really wish I could find out..........

[MadScientist]

KROME I agree with you on the subject that if Herobrine was real there would be no proof proving it, just because he scares people to remove the proofs. There is no way to find out if Herobrine is real, but it would explain the lag if he was real. (IF he would exist, he'd be like the most complex entity ever or something like that)
The only thing that we players can do is decide through logical and objectively if there would be a possibility.


You did done that good.

(Heheeee)
