I've watched so many live sessions I officially consider myself a fan

The moment I saw the white-ish background and ridiculous Jenga stack, I thought “it’s fucking kelvin214 isn’t it”. Seems like you’ve made yourself quite a name.

Jenga blocks are made with Alder wood, they have a crushing strength of 40.1 MPa.

Each block has a side area of 3.75 cm2 and weight of 10.6875 g.

If we want to match the pressure of the crushing strength using their weight and the acceleration of Earth's gravity,

40,100,00 kg/(m*s2) = (x kg)(1/10.6875 piece/g)(9.807 m/s2)(1/3.75 1/cm2)

143,470 = number of jenga blocks needed to crush the bottom one.
