Exploding Snowballs

Version: 1.15

Snowballs are pretty easy to get in Minecraft when snow is around, but when thrown they don't really do anything. I mean sure, you can push some mobs around but you can't deal any damage. But wouldn't it be cool if you could make explosive snowballs in Minecraft that would explode on impact? Well, in this video I show you how you can do just that, with only 1 command in Minecraft!

Command
