Update: I did reproduce this issue in both versions (1.21.44 & 1.21.60.21), Because of perfect timing and explosion range needs to get unblown chest, So i Adjusted the setup from old World file.

When moving an chest into 5 blocks explosion range can blocks blowing the chest and if a smaller offset of Ignited TNT can cause disappear the chest without dropping tile, The 2nd and 3rd delay of redstone repeater can be use to adjust the timing needs to be accurate and perfect timing between moving chest and TNT Explosion.

This is not a bug, it is actually meant to work this way.

1.16.221.
Timings have to be exact for it to be reproduced ๐Ÿ‘ (see newest uploaded video on this ticket)

Comment by [MCQA] v-magwar (Inactive) [ 24/May/21 ]

Weird, I cannot reproduce the issue, neither on retail nor on beta.ย 
If you can reproduce, could you upload a video from the newest retail version, or beta, showing the behavior at your end? Possibly the world as well?
Can you also mention what device were you using to reproduce and what OS version?

Comment by elizabeth pohl [ 21/May/21 ]

closer tntย  that kind of thing?

Affects 1.16.200.55 Beta

Comment by Chase Ryan Attebury [ 01/Sep/20 ]

I don't understand why this doesn't work.

Comment by silentwisperer [ 27/Aug/20 ]

This issue still affects 1.16.20

This is a parity issue as well. On java edition block 36 (a moving block) will have no blast resistance, and will be dropped by explosions. Moving blocks on bedrock are the opposite, they cannot be destroyed by explosions at all.

How to reproduce:
1. Create a system like the image above.
2. Activate a TNT, then 41 ticks later (using 11 repeaters) active a piston pushing a block.
3. The TNT explosion will not destroy the moving block. If even the moving block is something with very low blast resistance usually, like a slime block or netherrack.

Expected result:
The moving block should be exploded/destroyed by the TNT, or other explosion.

Confirmed on Windows 10 1.2.10.2. Test world attached: MCPE-16227.mcworld.

Comment by MaladjustedPlatypus [ 23/Feb/18 ]

This is still occurring as of 1.2.10

Comment by MaladjustedPlatypus [ 30/May/17 ]

Affects version 1.0.9.
To Ryan, the fact that an item becomes an entity during the transition has nothing to do with it as tnt should also destroy any entities in the blast radius. Java Minecraft behavior results in moving items being destroyed.

Affects current version 0.16.2

This is a bulk resolve of issues that haven't been updated to 0.16.0+ yet. Please comment below (To open the ticket) and update your affected versions. If you cannot reproduce the bug, please write in the comments so we can resolve it as "Cannot Reproduce". Thank You!

This works as intended. When a block is being pushed by a piston, it turns into an entity, rather than a block, so that it can be animated. So while the piston is in between states of extended and retracted, it turns into an entity and some physics do not apply.
