Hey there guys! Jake here with an article about "How big are Minecraft Blocks in Real Life?" This idea came to me just as I was thinking when almost going to sleep as all my ideas come from.
Intro
One night when going to sleep, I thought up an idea of how big are minecraft blocks in real life, so here I am with this blog. I have searched around the internet on this question and have found by Minepedia (Page can be found here) that a Minecraft block is 0.001 kilometers which is 1 meter which that is 3 feet cubed. With that in mind, a Minecraft block doesn't seem that big as it can be compared to a 40 inch tv and a bus wheel. But if we look at it like within the actual texture pack itself you can find a different aspect... During this, I will be talking about the brick block and texturepack since that is the easiest one to measure in terms of finding something that we can measure in real life. This is going to be compared to bricks obviously.
Bricks
We all know what bricks are? They're the the blocks in Minecraft that are more relatively used for building a house or school kind of building. We really don't use this block but use it's counterpart the brick and the cement within the block. Although brick sizes are differentiated upon which country you live in, we're going to go with the Swedish one just because Minecraft was made in Sweden so it should based on that. This information comes from Wikipedia which the page can be found here. Bricks in the imperial system is 10 × 4¾ × 2½ inches or otherwise in the metric system, 250 × 120 × 62 mm. That would mean that a Swedish brick could probably be the size of this bottle? I looked online for stuff. xD The page can be found here.
Anyways, that means that in inches form that would be
Conclusion
To conclude all this, I would have to say that the measurement for one brick block in Minecraft would be around 300 x 160 x 65 inches so that is quite a huge block. I know that I could've gotten this completely wrong but this is the outcome of my measurements which I might have done wrong as well. Hope you enjoyed this as well!
That is the outcome so I hope you enjoyed the theory! Leave constructive criticism if you would like! Thanks! - Jake

That would mean that a Swedish brick could probably be the size of this bottle? I looked online for stuff. xD The page can be found here.
Anyways, that means that in inches form that would be
9.84 x 4.72 x
2.44 inches. I used a millimeter converter website which can be found here,
Millimeters to Inches Conversion. Now if we put plaster which I'm thinking, because I cannot find it online, would be at least 1 inch thick of plaster on top of it that would be already near 11 inches tall, almost 6 inches wide, and almost 3 and 1/2 length. By going by the default texture pack there are 7 bricks on a side and because it is like that on 4 sides, which we will be counting in this blog, that would make it 21 bricks, which makes it 4 layers thick, and then I would have to guesstimate the same for there are blocks within it, so I say at least 28 bricks in all. So then it would be, going by the brick and texture pack, I would say around 300 x 160 x 85 inches all estimated values. I really cannot find what this block will be the size of but I already know that this block is preeeetty big. So anyways, that's the measurements for the brick. Also, we times by 28 because the estimated brick was 11 x 6 x 3 and 1/2 inches so timesing it by 28 would be because of how many bricks there are plus the plaster on it. I might have gotten this wrong but I don't know.Conclusion

Step 1: Work out how wide the block is.
Step 2: Work out the depth.
Step 3: Work out the height.
Step 4: You already have your dimensions.
P.S. This method is entirely based on assuming that the block is not square and you are working it out according to the brick size in the texturepack/resourcepack.
