	While fences appear to be a single block tall and have a hitbox height of one block, their collision box (for entities) is 1.5 ~~[[Minecraft:~~blocks tall]], meaning most mobs cannot jump over them without the ~~[[Minecraft:~~Jump Boost]] status effect. They are transparent to light and have visual gaps in the model. ~~[[Minecraft:Spider]]s~~ can climb over a fence, just like any other vertical object. ~~[[Minecraft:Camel]]s~~ can walk over fences.

They are transparent to light and have visual gaps in the model. Spiders can climb over a fence, just like any other vertical object. Camels can walk over fences.

	A fence occupies the center space of blocks and automatically connects to any [[Minecraft:solid block]] that is placed next to it. Wooden fences connect to other wooden fences, but do not connect to Nether brick fences.

	Additionally, if a [[Minecraft:carpet]], [[Minecraft:trapdoor]], ~~[[Minecraft:~~moss carpet]] or ~~[[Minecraft:~~pale moss carpet]] is placed above a fence, players are able to jump over the fence while other mobs are unable to, including mobs like zombies with similar attributes to players.

A '''fence''' is a barrier block that cannot normally be jumped over, similar to a [[Minecraft:wall]]. Unlike a wall, a player (but not [[Minecraft:mobs]]) can see through the openings in a fence.

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
*If a [[Minecraft:carpet]] is placed on top of a fence, a player can jump onto the carpet, while mobs cannot (except [[Minecraft:rabbit]]s).
**Placing a carpet on top of a fence does not reduce the fence or wall collision box down to one block, it just provides a platform one block high around the fence/wall to make it easier for climbing on the top of the fence.
*Getting hit by someone else (or shooting themselves with a Punch enchanted bow while sprinting forward) while in midair can cause the knockback to propel the player over a fence they would not be able to jump over normally.
*Projectiles get stuck in the collision box of the fence and remain there if shot from above.
