About
3 Netherite Ingots refers to a viral video and TikTok trend in which people share videos of misspoken or blundered words that sound like the N-word. The trend is inspired by a video of a child playing Minecraft and stuttering a word ("netherite") that sounded like the N-word. In late 2024, various TikTokers shared videos in line with this theme, showing white people stumbling over their words and making sounds that sound like racial epithets, oftentimes with the line "3 netherite ingots ahh scenario" added to the video, as well as referencing the "Netherite Ingot Incident."
