creeper give gunpowder
The creeper has a storage of gunpowder inside of its body. So, the association of sight of you, by how close you are, when a Creeper feels threatened, it ignites the gunpowder, causing the hissing noise. After that, often times you won't die depending on what length of blocks you were away from it, but you get a single pile of gunpowder so why not jump for joy? The Creeper is dead! ^,^
(Note: Sulphur was the old name for gunpowder. They have the same properties) In Minecraft, Gunpowder can be obtained by killing creepers and killing ghasts. Some uses for gunpowder in Minecraft is to make TNT, firework stars and fireworks.
It was trying to kill you and keeping it's gunpowder away from you.
To kill a creeper, get close to it, hit it with your sword and back up. Repeat this method until the creeper dies. You will get gunpowder from the creeper. If you have a stone or iron sword they take 4 hits. With an enchanted iron sword or normal diamond sword its 3.
I do believe there is only one kind of Creeper. Just Stab it with a sword then jump back in case it explodes. then repeat. Until its dead. If it doesn't drop gunpowder try another creeper. Just like Pigs and cows ect. It won't always drop something Hope this helped

Creepers explode because they are made out of tnt and when you agrivate them, the cause the tnt to "ignite". When the creeper gets agrivated they then explode and resultly kill them selves from the explosion. The damage creepers do are usually depending on the distance you are from the creeper. I hope i helped! :D
Craft one gunpowder with as many dyes as you like to make a star. The amount of dyes and in what order you place them on the crafting table determine the colors of the firework. You can also use a creeper head in the star to make the firework explosion in the shape of a creeper. After you create the star, you can make the firework like so: Empty Gunpowder Empty Empty Paper Empty Gunpowder Star Gunpowder This configuration will launch the firework the highest. If you want to use two gunpowder instead and have the rocket not launch as high, you can also use: Empty Empty Empty Empty Paper Empty Gunpowder Star Gunpowder Or, you can even use just one gunpowder, which would look like: Empty Gunpowder Empty Empty Paper Empty Empty Star Empty Hope this helps you!
It is called TNT not dynamite. All you need is 4 sand and 5 gunpowder. Check out the link under "Sources and related links" below this answer for more information. *^* ^*^ *^* ^ = sand * = gunpowder You find sand in deserts and in beaches. You find creepers spawning at night they explode when they get near you. You have to kill them to obtain the gunpowder.
you need a bow and arrow and shoot it from a distance. keep doing that and you'll kill a the creeper without it blowing up :)
It is a creeper.
