The most baffling thing to me is when it's smelted, Cuz either it was shaped then smelted but that also leaves more materials to be shaped and smelted turning into Nether bricks which should yield more after smelting.
Or when it's being smelted in the furnace, the entire block gets heated and starts compressing itself/drying and shrinking to the point that it turns into something similar to a bricks which explains why the entire block is used to make one brick.
And what's even more baffling is that when smelting, any fuel can be used to turn Netherrack into Nether bricks and I mean any, cuz the fire in the furnace is fueled by like wood, coal, and other flammable items, yet a piece of unknown substance from the Minecraft version of HELL which I imagine is gonna be extremely hot place with all the fire and sees of lava, can be cooked into bricks from the heat of what you would use to cook your steaks.
Fact: it could be blood since it isn't directly mentioned but in minecraft story mode most people are terrified of the nether. Or atleast when they lost their minecart
In education edition analyzing netherrack in a material reducer reveals it to be a volcanic silicate rock rich in mercury, with a mystery element that doesn't have a (discovered) equivalent in real life. Specifically it has: Silicon x64
Oxygen x18
Mercury x15
(Unknown element) x3
The unknown element is likely why it can burn 'forever' because most things that have that 'element' are somewhat paranormal or strange, like redstone (which is mostly uranium, Carbon x31 Uranium x31 (Unknown Element) x38), and soul sand (which is mostly silicon behind the mystery element, Silicon x37, Oxygen x3, (Unknown Element) x60) and endstone (again mostly silicon, Silicon x59, Carbon x13, (Unknown Element) x28)
Blood can clot so video game fuckery wouldn’t make flesh bricks unrealistic necessarily, and we sorta already have a precedent for this with soul sand being a bunch of souls
Better idea: fungus-infested rock. Same color as crimson, and it almost sounds like the logs if I remember correctly. Or just weak mantle rock line the other person said

It's probably Red clay here in india we make bricks from it by smelting it
Its beans. beans
I thought it was fatty flesh since fat burns so yeah
My friend, flesh does burn, pretty well infact, fat stores or lard burns very nice.
Look up somthing called red scoria
It could be flesh because giant bone structures grow from the ground
In some shaders texture pack it considered a human intestines part of block
netherrack is netherrack 👍👍👍👍
dried magma block ??

Chunks of red phosphorus?
Its the mantle of the earth
ive always thought of it as flesh just for fun. i like it. surely nether brick is just burnt flesh repurposed into building material XD

Its just a made up material like endstone and netherite
I think it's magma but without the lava inside it. Basically like its dried magma.

It is flesh from hell, that is why it burns.
Special flesh that hardens with concentraced heat, Very suited for combat.
i just think it looks like intestines
I think it's a stone containing oils.
I always thought it was a soft volcanic rock. Which is why it broke so easily.
I thought of it being a rough porous rock like a pumice stone
I think it’s a flammable clay like material

It's beans
But realistically I think it's some sort of charred stone, due to the heat of the nether it's become brittle
