I gotta start doing this
We've got a cognitohazard at the end there
The protect in SCP’s motto more so is protecting the SCP’s or rather goes both ways, to my knowledge, lives lost be it scp or human is just...”meh, on to the next test” for them
my dumbass thought MTF on tier 2 meant male-to-female
You look like tomatoanus
Maybe 001 is the friends we make along the way

@Carl Buccarey you've started a new memetic agen- Maybe 001 is really the friends we lost along the way-
Maybe 001 is th- did you know that world renowned author Stephen King was once hit by a car? Just something to consider.
One of my favorite SCPs is a traveling moth salesman that tries to fast talk his way into selling you a helmet that lets you communicate with moths
Personally I’d totally buy a helmet that lets me talk to moths
Which one is this
lamplamplamplamplamplamplamplamp Lamp
I’m buying no questions asked
doesn't sound too evil. hope it isn't
Imagine humanity goes extinct one day and a new civilization way far out discovers all the SCP lore
The densest history books to study by future highschool students
They will be traumatized by all the godlike beings and wonder how in the heck we know all of this stuff.
They'll wonder how we survived as long as we did lol
@@Bobobo-bo-bo-bobobo they'll just laugh at us
Hhaaha oh shit they would go absolute ape mode
One of My favorites is a grey tabby cat with no bottom half. Not amputated or deformed, just doesn’t exist. She *suspends* .She still walks and acts like a normal cat, and she’s allowed free reign of the halls on her level.
529!! i love josie :)
c h e e s e
My favourite is the additional note that under no circumstances should you feed her cheese… because she’ll get upset if you can’t feed her enough cheese. Got to love Josie
Josie is literally the best scp no contest
Sounds like a Cheshire Cat rip-off.
Just remember Tupac’s Ghost is a SCP that helps the foundation by solving mysteries through his raps. He’s also beefing with the scarlet king.
Is the Scarlet King Biggie?
@@sweetneko1257 yes
The Scarlet King is Tupac's killer
Remember "He ain't so big, and your not so small!"
Did the foundation wiki stop vetting submissions?
I love how things in these stories go from “haha gamer weed,” to “old world god”
UltraWeed++
Yo timed comments i literally read "old world god" the exact same time he said it
Lol 666th like
Or a teality warping emtity that reshapes the entire universe just to torture one guy for millions of years to a piece of metal that makes you misspell a single word when writing about it
Like just more weed
"How can a specific doctor die in one entry and be alive in another?" I always liked the 'The names are actually job titles.' explanation there.
maybe different timelines too
Of course, Dr. Bright gets an exception.
I love this! interesting way to approach to the situation
I quite like that as a concept.
just like the fan theories about James Bond / 007
My personal favorite interpretation of 05-13 is the idea that they're a person they picked up off the street. That the 05 council gets desensitized to things over years of anomalies and forget what is and isnt normal. So they get a random person off the street to determine if something is actually normal or not.
I can just imagine the 05 popping up in a white van, yanking a random joe off the streets and asking them if an origami crane that can speak fluent greek and believes it is a planet is weird.
That’s funny af
They, of course, have to wipe their memories once they're through with them.
Suspicious street Interviewer: If you found out that pain was caused by a parasite that cranked the pain on full blast once you died (you can still feel it, obviously), would you end humanity to try to kill it? Person: Uhhh not unless there's no other way to kill it Suspicious street Interviewer to other suspicious street interviewers: He said no, but that's still 12-1! Suspicious street interviewer 2: Hell yeah!
@@AkoTE. 05 council: asks that question. Random person: Uh... yes? ...wait. IS THAT SERIOUSLY THE ENTIRE REASON YOU KIDNAPPED ME?!? IT WAS JUST TO ASK THAT ONE STUPID QUESTION?
I love the way SCP stories go from horror to stupid. Like, one of my favourite SCPs is a crew of coconut crabs who act like pirates, with their leader being a large crab who speaks like a Pirate.
My favourite SCP is me, a toaster!
THE PLATE THAT SCREAMS
@@requiem-girl Damn I was going to mention myself, too. I will say, though, that my second favorite SCP might be 2730. It is Gilbert Gottfried, except it's really a duck wearing Gilbert Gottfried's face.
Mine is the tentacle who wants to be seen as scary, but only get used for traumatic reasons
My fave is ‘soggy doggy’ where it is a dog that when it gets wet it shakes its fur constantly and when submerged it can boil water. scp-4062
One of my favorite SCP stories is the one about a humanoid Cthulhu who just wants to relax and play video games, but unintentionally causes cults to spring up and worship him just by existing. He hates this, but can’t stop it from happening. So he turns himself in to the foundation for protection, resulting in cultists occasionally attacking the facility under the assumption he’s been imprisoned.
And then one of the cults breaks into his containment chamber and has a blood orgy.
I love the bit where the cult infiltrates his cell and do a bunch of rituals to try to “free” him but he just sits there in his gaming chair like “come on guys, that’s a new carpet can you just go?”
No way really? This is cap right?
@@JayPlusForerunner look up scp 2662 it’s very entertaining
Sounds like life of Brian. But instead of being mistaken for Jesus he's just some Octopus guy.
My favorite SCP is 962, aka “The Tower of Babble”. It’s a 281-meter-tall tower of steel and wood, that turns animals into crude facsimiles of humans for its work force, and occasionally sends out balloons with papers containing essays about how the tower admires humans.
I just read the article for this SCP and omg. 😂 It’s amazing. Just the idea of a BUILDING that is sentient and deforms animals to look like humans is amazing. It looks like….this building has a crush on humans. I wonder if it’s really that friendly. I would like to read about humans interacting with the building to see what happens. The building can write, so there is a chance of communication.
so a yap domain but with essays
My favorite SCP is SCP-2521 (or SCP- OO I OOOOO I OO I O) The idea behind it when I looked on the wiki for the first time is genius. An SCP that can only be described through symbols and pictures cuz every verbal description or any writings about it causes it to appear and take the info (or the author) with it. By far my most favorite concept. It really caught my intere-
This reminds me of those perfectly cut screams. WOOO-
Oh no he got em
This is my top 3 favourite scp, besides that it got a dope design, I love it's ability, it's simple and creative which is rare to see in SCP nowadays especially in infohazard ones, they are well written of course but I don't want to just understanding the basics of it's power by reading a full book of someone's politic manifesto, it's to a point of just seeing a random page of SCP that requires me to scroll over 5 time just to reach to the bottom of it's document makes me not even wanting to read it
big brain comment lol well done
😨 👺🫱🧍🏻?
When you decide to read the SCP stories, you need to keep in mind two statements: 1. There is no canon 2. Everything is canon Both of them are equally right.
It'd be more accurate to say "there are many canons". Newcomers get confused by "there is no canon" and think that there's no continuity at all between pages
Its like a modern mythology, its all linked together but theres about a billion versions of everything that are all equally valid, its up to the individual to do enough research and thinking to build their own canon and what it means to them
It's genius, cause creators have full creativity writing stories
Yesn't
Canon is whatever you believe to be true, at least in the SCP universe.
the craziest scp I've seen is scp-2137, which is tupac's ghost attempting to help the SCP foundation defeat the scarlet king through giving information in music tracks
The more I read into this one, the funnier it gets
holy shit i thought this was a joke🤣 thank you for that info, that is gold😂
Bruhhhh lmaoo
Shame SCP-2137 isnt a ghost of john paul the second haunting small children and putting them into wardrobes
Always found that 2137 was really stupid, even before the allegations against the author, Max Landis.
I like the orb monster that is fully intent on scaring humans, so they show it 50s monster movies and have all its handlers pretend to get scared when it appears as the Wolfman, Frankenstein, etc.
Anyone know what number this is?
Found it, my bad. It's 2006. I kept getting 6174.
It is kind of scary though, cause if it wants to scare people, imagine it learned true horror like the apocalypse or other scps…
@@arcanefunds2645 That's exactly why they have it in containment and feed it old 50's monster movies for info on what humans find scary in the first place. AND all the researchers who interact with the SCP have to take acting classes or otherwise be good actors so they can give convincing reactions of fear when they interact with the SCP. Otherwise, it might start experimenting and exploring different ideas for what's "scary".
It's not to be taken lightly. Imagine if it found out what really scares people, like war, or the apocalypse.
I love that SCPs can range from things completely natural to earth but extremely dangerous, to cosmic horrors that are completely harmless.
to tomatoes flying at your face whenever you make a horrible joke. (SCP-504)
To scps that are litterally just normal ass dudes (6451)
Take the SCP that is a horrifying monster you must not look at, that also enjoys cooking and playing music and is overall peaceful and an absolute delight to be around.
@@babymetalenjoyerto also fuckin Tupac? 😭 I never heard of that one until reading the comments today
@@cypher1160 which SCP number is that? Oh yea and Trump is an SCP too (SCP-5004-B)

How has my life came to me reading this?
Wendi seems like the type of guy to make a series akin to the Conspiracy iceberg where he just goes through all ~7500 articles and analyzes every one of them
We can but hope..
I think he did that. It's like 9 hours long
@Riana Anaïs Nah they're talking about an SCP one similar to the conspiracy iceberg where he goes through EVERY article
Let's hope bc he sais that he wanted to talk more about it and I only found one other video of it (about 001) and I would love to watch an ridiculously long video about it!!
My favorite scp is a coffee machine that can give you a cup of any liquid you type into it. There are a few exceptions but notably, what you type into it should be *very* specific. An agent named Joseph simply asked for a cup of joe, and ended up passing out due to a sudden loss of blood, tissue, and fluids. You’ll never guess what was in the fucking cup
I wanted to forget about this SCP because of a comic I saw. Won’t go into detail, all I have to say is *JACK BRIGHT CUM*
Hilariously (horrifyingly?) Joseph wasn't actually the one who asked, another agent asked while Joseph was just there in the break room, but he just got smited by the machine anyway
For anyone interested, the SCP in question here is 294
That one’s an OG. One of the first I heard about years ago. Really helped set the stage for the more toned down “fantastic yet mundane” side of the setting.
Lmao I wonder what will happen if someone typed "a cup of Java" on it
I can't believe the SCP Iceberg is less scary than the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Iceberg.

@@devlinmcguire7543 ok
there’s so much variety in the SCP universe and that’s what i love about it. we have the “you do not recognize the bodies in the water” to a dog that can boil water by shaking its fur so hard.
the whole "Class of '76" stories / lore thing is absolutely fantastic, and just links to so many things, it's great
My favorites run the spectrum in tone from 'To the Cleverest', a sentient monkey-clapping-cymbals statue that chooses whoever can pull the most impressive prank as its owner (which set off a prank war in one of the sites as all the researchers tried to outdo each other), to 'When Day Breaks', an apollyon-class event where sunlight (and moonlight) fucking melts people into goo abominations on contact, which only live to convert others into more abominations by force or deception. There's SCP's that are genuinely light-hearted and funny, and others that will make you sleep with the lights on for weeks, and horror for every taste. You like body horror? We got you covered. Cosmic horror? Gather round and take your pick. I've actually had an SCP I've been writing and planning to submit to the official community forums to see whether or not it's liked enough to be accepted into canon, but it's been on the backburner for a good while now while I focus on other projects.
@@lzrshark617 Moonlight isn’t a thing. Yes, I just did that.
When I saw the cognito-hazard warning I thought that Wendigoon was going to talk about that SCP. It was one of first ones that really freaked me out and fascinated me at the same time.
Oh I didn’t know the bodies in the water thing were an SCP that’s pretty cool
I think my favorite SCP is 5031, he’s just a sweet guy who just wants to cook and play piano and the story of the researchers actually caring about him and teaching him warmed my heart
i just looked this one up and it is really good (unfortunately it is now infected with a cognitohazard)
He's not a guy. It's specifically stated to have a sharp tail, elbows that diverge into multiple arms, and it even levitates.
@@ImperialVersian guy personally wise, as in “little guy.” He’s a visual monster, but just a sweet little guy
Horrifying to look at, and will turn invisible/disappear if you actually do look at it, but is an absolute delight to be around. That is definitely one of the best SCPs!
the SCP foundation being a bit of an internet secret is honestly great. Really ties into the entire theme of the foundation.
Not a secret you bum
Add to that the fact that it gets associated with completely unrelated videos and so on, and gets mentioned in the real world, but never really manages to make its way into broad global recognition outside of the internet, and it turns into something that could be an SCP itself. Keter Class, but harmless.
There’s nothing more deflating than already knowing everything in Tier 1 comfortably, and instantly having no clue what the things in Tier 2 are.

Props for adding the warning. I know some people with schizophrenia and other mental illnesses who get messed up just hearing about this stuff.
Or people who’re tripping.
What is anyone with schizophrenia doing clicking on any video ever that says SCP
@@chase338 curiosity?
it’s kinda sad to see ppl you care about having episodes and you don’t know what to do to help them, my schizophrenic friend gets them regularly and it hurts my heart every time bc he just panics a lot and can’t calm down
@@chase338 I don’t have schizophrenia but I do tend to get super paranoid easily, I still watch these videos because I enjoy them. Every now and then I get too paranoid and have to call a friend to convince myself that I’m safe but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying this content. Disclaimers help me with my paranoia a lot, just rewinding back to it and very now and then throughout the video let’s me be able to watch it in one go without freaking out too much. Just because it get spooked easy doesn’t mean I shouldn’t allow myself to watch content I enjoy. The idea that people who have difficulty with certain content shouldn’t watch it is a very ableist mindset, I know you didn’t mean it in such a way but it’s been used against those with mental health issues and disabilities so often that you should be aware that it’s a harmful mindset.
Quick note. Depending on reader interpretation in the story of scp-5000 the scp foundation doesn’t necessarily become evil and kill everyone. It’s pretty heavily implied that there was some form of scp that either took over the foundation or there was an scp that had infected the mind of everyone and the foundation had to kill everyone to keep the scp from progressing. It’s up to reader interpretation but I thought I’d point that out as I really like that story.
I don’t recall exactly but I think there was an explanation for why they started killing everyone. It wasn’t that they were taken over, they uncovered something so horrific that the only way to save humanity is to wipe it out. Something to do with the fact that there is not afterlife but neither is death a void. I don’t quite remember but it was bad enough that it made them seem like the good guys again.
It's complicated, the idea is effectively that a cognitohazard of incredible power got spread through the foundation that convinced them that anybody alive who wasn't affected by it was better off dead. But the implication is that the foundation is convinced that they've actually just been inoculated against a larger cognitohazard that already affected all of humanity, so they think everyone else is the one affected. The clever part is that functionally speaking, if everyone on Earth was affected by a cognitohazard, a defense against that would work the same way as a normal cognitohazard, because baseline human thought has been so thoroughly contorted by the broader cognitohazard that there's no difference between a defense from the broader one and a normal cognitohazard. So you can take it as the foundation going crazy or as them being the only ones who know better, because those explanations would both cause the same response. With that said, I'm pretty sure the article implies that the foundation is actually under a cognitohazard and that the idea that the whole rest of the world was is wrong, because individuals like Dr. Bright who can't be affected by cognitohazards weren't changed by the message that the foundation sent out that contained the supposed inoculation, which should have worked if it wasn't anomalous. But that's just my take.
@@jordanfry5138 yeah that’s why I said it’s up to the interpretation of the reader. It’s so vague, and that’s why I love that story. It really keeps you guessing and thinking about it long after you’re done reading it which is the sign of a great scp story.
Used to read SCPs when I worked night shifts some years back, they were (and still are) so captivating and downright eerie in places. Some people are too talented for their own good. I'm just glad they're using their powers to write fiction.
I agree, some like the house of the worm are so well done. I would love for some like minded people to come together and make these into well done short films.
@@Wendigoon it's starting to pick up pace the movie/animation adaptation scene of SCP, I just hope that in my life time I get to see a big budget / mainstream production of something scp related
It's fiction as far as you know
@@Wendigoon House of the Worm is a fucking banger.
@@zypalitra8080 Now I gotta read that one...
I was young when the SCP came out, it was so detailed I thought it was 100% real.
Same lol
Me too😭
SAME LMAO XDD
I was a caveman so I never knew it was a big internet thing until ion know, but I always liked the Plague doctor even as a caveman
I was 15 when i first heard about SCPs and I actually thought they were real lmfao
My favorite SCP is 049, but I also have a fondness for sympathetic/sad/wholesome ones. Like the Bear With a Heart of Patchwork (SCP 2295), Here Were Dragons (SCP 1762), A Gift From Dad (SCP 348), things like that. There’s something so strangely comforting about reading bittersweet stories like those.
💪😁 a most polite dude that tirelessly conducts his research for the greater good and fights the pestilence in strange ways ! 🤔🤣🤣
I've read almost all 7000 SCP entries that currently exist and out of all of them my favorite one is SCP-184. Basically it's an object that when placed inside a room starts expanding it (but sort of keeping the original templste) up to a point of reality starting to break down the further it stretches (think of walls made out of hamster food, floor made out of vanilla ice cream, etc.). Now the funny bit is that the foundation placed it in a public park disguised as a piece of art thinking "Oh yeah, of it's outside it can't exert its effects right?". Boy were they wrong! Apparently that object is the reason the universe is expanding and they've sent manned expeditions to the outer reaches of the universe where they found Earths where, for an example, Africa was made completely out of chocolate or some crazy shit like that. They believe it to be the source of everything anomalous due to its "reality warping" effects. The last sentence stated something along the lines of "How do you best hide SCP-001? You don't classify it as 001". Keep in mind I'm going off of memory here and I've read the entry ages ago, it could've been edited, rewritten, removed, etc. until now so take this all with a grain of salt.
That is actually so cool and creative
What your lest favorite
Clever
@@Emil_LLscpfan Hmmm hard to tell, there used to be many poorly written ones that got removed to free up entries for better ones or ones that no longer fit the overall style of the wiki so they got marked as EX (explained) and I used to really dislike those but now I don't think I necessarily hate any of the entries. I do think some could have been utilized or written much better. I usually get bored when reading SCPs related to the Scarlet King and/or Sarkicism as it all just sounds so similar and cliché but the one I think is my least favorite one is probably one of the SCP-001 proposals, The Factory. I don't know why but I never liked that proposal. In comparison to all the other ones that are either extremely well written and/or have very cool concepts behind them, or they are very elegant or logical, The Factory just seems so brutish and way too simple to be the actual 001. I also don't care much for 096, 682 and 173 since they've seeped too deep into the mainstream and are being milked into oblivion by everyone. They are the classics and I acknowledge how impactful they were on the development of the SCP universe but I'm just sick of them being shoved into canon stories and other similar content just because they are popular. If you want some recommendations for some less known but really cool SCPs you can always ask :)
@@petar20 ok👍
"The SCP foundation is one of the internet's best kept secrets." Yeah, until everyone thought Sirenhead was an SCP for some reason.
I love Trevor Henderson and his monsters, siren head was cool.... until the idiots and children got to it. Why do so many newer creepypasta fans think its a creepypasta too, why.
@@unholynoise3087 At this point I believe that the creepypasta wiki is just the scp wiki without moderation or actual adults. Sirenhead wasnt allowed by the staff to become an scp so it became a creepypasta for the children.
@@applesource8261 i dont even know how it became a creepypasta, it has lore, but not a whole ass official story about it. Someone made a cool game, then it blew up. I got pissed when people mixed marble hornets and creepy pasta but I understood that several creepypastas and the series itself was developed from a competition, basically havingthe same origin. But siren head came from an artist that to my knowledge has never made a creepypasta. Sometimes children just ruin things
@@unholynoise3087 idk how you define creepypasta but there definitely needs to be a definitive like written out story as the source material, siren head doesn’t have that
@@Deepseadread6 creepypastas are set stories usually about a monster/killer. They range from terrible to decent. Most follow this, but it has become a lot wider of a umbrella with other story types being added, like just normal scary stories. It's why creeypaste/horror narrators usually specify if its from a creepypasta forum, r/nosleep, or r/short stories. The marble hornets series was a arg based off a photoshop competition from about 11 years ago Siren head is a cool project monster with some minor lore without a specific plot to it. So yeah, if it was to be made into a official creepypasta Trevor Henderson would need to write a whole ass proper story, instead of just some facts about it. There are so many differences and I enjoy the enthusiasm but sirenhead would just be added to the trash fire of bad creepypasta characters, because I don't think its the type of beast that could make a memorable and proper story, no matter how shit some of the most "classic" of pastas are
My favorite SCP is the I Can't Believe It's Not Butter! that you literally cannot believe it's not butter.
Wait now that I think of it, if I had to guess what this SCP was about it would be that the I can't believe it's not butter products trick people into thinking they are butter when they are not. Like, I personally cannot believe it's not butter. I had that in I think middle school and it was basically butter, but it's always possible that stuff like that isn't what we think it is and no one can prove it. Extremely unlikely but possivle which is fun to think about
Well considering that ICBINB is already literally margarine, the title was already accurate lol
I think this one is real because there is no way I can't believe it's not butter isn't actually just butter. despite the name I always took for granted that it was butter, and no one can tell me otherwise
What is its code?
Lmao i love these stupid SCPs
as someone who's wanted to be an scp fan for years but is way too intimidated by just how much there would be to go through to understand things, I'm very grateful for this video
i just started reading them in order back when i discovered it (though series 3 was the last one back then).
it's also worth noting that the entire SCP universe started on 4chan, so it could also be a reference to 4chan leaking the existence of the SCP Foundation to the rest of the world. some guy made a post labelled SCP-173, then wrote the entire entry for 173 in the body of said post (that's why it's marked as "The Original" on the website).

I like the time loop family, scary but cool :)
I love the concept of SCPs. The idea of a community containing strange objects, creatures and phenomena is so fascinating yet strangely believable. It’s just like an elaborate conspiracy theory. It reminds me of a book I read where extremely advanced technology was hidden underground because they were worried people won’t be ready, and the characters have to contain it
The best thing to happen to the SCP storytelling was in 2016-2020 (i forgot exactly when) that the SCP forum mods made a sitewide post saying pretty much "Hey guys....we apprecitate the stories and SCPs you all are making, but stop killing D-Class willy nilly. The Foundation is supposed to be for knowlegdge and preventitive peace, not wide-spree murder". And man stories since then have gotten so good. Genuinly when writers were just "kill d-class, d-class was terminated for not following procedure" it was so damn boring
Curiously, the hyper-adorable SCP-999 in some canons is the seventh child of the Scarlet King, who was born in secret. He has already defeated SCP-682, who's the Fourth child, and it has been predicted that his powers will grow over time and eventually he will overthrow the Scarlet King with the power of love (I'm not kidding).
thats one of my headcanons
new headcanon
They grew up nice because of all those bedtime stories probably.
wow, just wow, the little adorable orange blob is the answer to the scarlet king, just wow. now that I think about it, what would happen if 999 affected other SCP's, would shy guy stop crying if he interacted with it?
:0 that’s a really good idea actually
055 has been one of if not my favorite scps ever, it's just so good and it could only work in the scp universe, the fact that they know NOTHING about it, other than it's not a sphere, and it's worth containing. (Actually it might not even be worth containing, the database itself says they speculate it could be there to spy on or interfere with the foundation, honestly it's so good it could be an 001 proposal)
since when has there been an SCP-055?
SCP-055? Never heard of it.

Very late, but my personal favorite SCP is the SCP-001 Proposal, the "Gate Guardian". I absolutely love the idea and how it explains and shows that it could very well be the very first ever SCP just saying "Prepare" and being able to effortlessly block any and all attempts of anything harming it or the gate, as well as SCP-076-2 and SCP-073 having different and unique/unexpected reactions when approaching the Gate Guardian. Super interesting overall.
Since we're all sharing, the one scp that stuck with me through all this time is the one who comes to people before just they die to comfort them and talk to them if they don't have anyone else in the room with them as they go.
Nobody dies alone
scp-4999 someone to watch over us
Yeah he's a badass. Deserves all the praise.
That psychopomp deserves a raise
Isn’t there a similar one who takes on the life of people who died in it‘s vicinity to fix up their life or sth?
People in 2000 years be like: Hey, we can make religion out of this!
Bill Wurtz: no don't
No dont

SCP-3001 is one of my absolute favorites. Its whole story and the devolution of its main character into utter insanity is very interesting.
As far as the multiple universes thing goes, I remember reading that they sent SCP-682 (a nearly unkillable dragon-like creature) to another dimension. It was "returned" with a note saying something to the effect of: "He's your problem, not ours."
I thought what happened was they sent him through but the other dimension also sent theirs with a note saying "It's your problem now, suckers" meaning they both just swapped 682s.
Let's remember that 682 got dropped into a literal patch of nothingness in russia, where everything that entered it ceased to exist, and he came back just fine.
@@timez957 Jesus, i forgot about that one. Is that the one where it looks like a normal patch of forest but is actually nothing? Related to pattern screamers if i remember correctly?... I haven't read SCP in a while lol. I don't know why that one is particularly frightening to me. So scary to think i could just be walking through a forest and suddenly not exist anymore, much more scary than being chased by even the most horrific Lovecraftian monster
@@voxlknight2155 "So scary to think i could just be walking through a forest and suddenly not exist anymore" to be fair, that forest IS in Russia, so anyone walking into it is already in nothingess
My favorite article on O5-13 is that O5-13 is the only normal, non-anomalous person in the O5 council and they keep them around to have a baseline.
Hell yeah, it's also one of my favorites too. While the rest of the 05 is scrambling to figure out what 05-13 is, the fact that he's just an ordinary guy really breaks the continuous anomalous property of the story. It's quite refreshing every once in a while.
I like it too
It always made me think O5-13 is actually not normal. But one of those annomoly neutralizing reality anchors.
@@ethribin4188 nah. I'm normal as anyone can get. ;)
@@OverseerXIII get back in the cage 013
I am so happy you talked about the Ethics Committee, it's one of my favorite pieces of disinfo storytelling. This useless committee that's the butt of every internal joke, like a bad branch in HR at an Amazon warehouse, but realistically they're the actual shotcallers, disguised as disgruntled and depressed office workers that are powerless to do their duty.
the whole project of scp is like if a bunch of writers independently decided to come together to write a comic series with even less regard for continuity than normal and without doing retcons ever
The reason Dr clef isn't affected by 166 is because he isn't affected by any scps. I like the canon in which he's a powerful reality Bender Who was super traumatized by another reality Bender and as a result his subconscious rejects the idea of the anomalous which leads him to essentially Bend reality back to normal completely subconsciously.
like straightening out a bent wire lol
@@firebloodearthborn8633 good analogy
He's actually a Reality Anchor, a being that reverts reality back to normalcy, which opposes Reality *Benders* that can *bend* reality itself on a whim, and it's Clef that can "unbend reality". Although Clef being a Reality Bender that doesn't believe in the anomalous is funny
Honestly I’m a fan of both theories fused together. He’s an scp who subconsciously rejects the anomalous and acts as the neutralising agent to the acidity of the SCPs, but he also once felt for an SCP (possibly bc she might also have known a trauma unique to anomalous creatures and their interactions with other anomalies) and they fell for each other in a love that ultimately could never be thanks to the world they lived in and the paths both had already been walking. One that both crossed paths before going separate ways once more until fate in its cruelty brought them together again in the only way it could have inevitably ended (especially because of how he will always act as an antithesis to the anomalous and to change such a key component of himself that he isn’t even aware of to its true extent, potentially, would mean smashing the glass window that is Dr. Clef, SCP Researcher/former MTF member.)
There's a new version of 166 up on the wiki which has a completely different effect, and is a clear reference to the goat-daughter theory
I remember hearing about an SCP that was just a video of like a childs basketball game or something, but every time it's replayed, the people in the video become more and more self aware that they are in a video and it gets real real dark real fast.
I think I know exactly which one you're talking about! I don't remember the number but the SCP is a VHS tape of a basketball game. When inserted and played, it starts off normally but once the tape finishes and then restarts, the people in the video start acting differently and getting a sense of deja vu. This continues on to them realizing that they cannot escape, leading to a lot of gruesome stuff. However, once the tape is taken out, they forget everything again and it starts all over

scp is unique because it somehow manages to be entertaining, absolutely amazing, and cringe and bad at the same time

The SCP universe is good as in well constructed, good as in I like it, bad as in poorly constructed, and bad as in I hate it all at once

I think my all-time favorite is SCP-093, because it starts as just a weird object, but a whole story unfolds behind it. You don't even get the complete story unless you read all the supplementary material. It's delicious and genuinely disturbing.
My favorite SCP-001 proposal is that it's actually SCP-184, so simple yet so terrifying
What if King Solomon is the head of the council? He could have been given immortality by the Gate Guardian as a reward for his dedication to protect humanity through founding the foundation.
I now support this
@@Wendigoon me too
Dude.
I'll do you one better, each member of the 05 council is related to a different origin of the SCP foundation and somehow came together as a collective. They may not be the same person but they are similar in that they each made this their mission and due to dimensional or time fuckery from any number of SCPs they came together and decided it best to work together to try and prevent such things.
I prefer the version of 05-01 depicted in "The Factory" proposal
I love the realistic inconsistencies of these creatures. One moment, you'd be dealing with an old god that has existed before the first humans then there's just a sentient tomato who can run more than 100mph.
that's the jist of it lol
That tomato could probably kill the god
@@Boilio2 *definitely
At the end of tier one, he mentioned the "immortal" Cain and Abel. Isn't the most famous thing about Abel that he was murdered?
@@Viking_Luchador biblically, yes. In SCP canon, something happened and for some reason, Abel was resurrected as a fierce and merciless warrior that slaughtered everything in his way. He had a box that whenever he died, he'd turn to ashes and would reform in it. This could take anywhere from a few hours to a few decades, but he would always come back. So yes, he was immortal.
please make more scp content i loved this! i also really like the more self contained or silly curious weird scps so id love to hear you talk about some of that
Came back to this after a while, I really appreciate how easily you explained topics without making them seem too uninteresting. The SCP lore is a whole entire different thing and I’d love to see you dive deeper into the doctors lore, and how they connect with the anomalies. I’ve been in the community for about four years at this point, and I’m still learning new theories and propositions that these talented authors write. Anyways I hope you make another one of these soon because the way you explained it was very enjoyable!
I like to think SCP-001 is simply the awareness of being a writing project. The reason it's so hidden? For the benefit of you, the reader; it represents your suspension of disbelief. If you think about it too much, it would ruin your experience with SCP, because you'd constantly be laughing at how unrealistic everything is. In-canon, it works the same; reading it would simply mean you've realised that you are little more than the words and thoughts of a group of people on the internet.
Good point!
Not sure if you'll read this but there are a few that tackle the concept, one of which being SCP 5999
So sheeth of papers?
The SCP website is itself already an SCP lol
there is a 001 proposal that's just that, and also, pataphysics!

@@LittleMushroomGuy it is an extra dimensional being who is beyond our comprehension. A God, for lack of a better term. It is everything, yet nothing. It's neither malevolent nor benevolent, though tries to do good. Whether or not we can perceive anything it can do is "good" is up for debate.

@@Goatisme thank you for the explanation of something I could never appreciate the beauty of until now. I truly love the SCP foundation work, especially the work from the more talented authors who write more long-form stories and take time to develop usable characters.
SCP-7004 is absolutely wild! The end was so unexpected, the origin of all those other people, it was very unexpected. Hell of a story
Writing this at 14:48. A channel called “SCP explained stories & animations” covers the scarlet king a lot if people are curious, they said that the seventh bride was allowed to give birth and instead of another demonic child, SCP-999 was birthed, and the bride got to live.
This explains the memes! Thank you for your comment.
31:50 i love how the only rule able to overcome the supernatural scp is that ''incest is gross'', thats like going to the skarlet king and being like, ''murder bad nu huh''
That and Clef is a reality anchor but I didn’t want to get into all that
'pain is bad' scarlet king : *dies*
So....The SCP foundation is a Thaumial
@@Wendigoon an that makes much more sense lol i didnt know that
@Wendigoon I was wondering why you didn't mention anything about Clef being a reality anchor, lmao.
Okay, 000 and Pattern Screamers is honestly heartbreaking. They're whatever life was before that is so desperate for a real interaction with another meaningful soul, they are willing to just scream forever and ever into the ether. And all it is to us now is "error."
The sad thing is that what the screaming looks like to them is wrinkles and shadows. Aside from that there is nothing but white empty space.
I love your videos so much, it was so cool to come back to this and see you explain SCP stuff. The background music was slightly distracting (could be just me) but you did so well describing the entire foundation in my opinion!
Mind you, the SCP document for Clef's daughter was changed some time back because of the ick factor of a minor having those sorts of effects. Her effects were changed so that artificial things near her will change back to their natural state. She also has a sensitivity to artificial materials in food, her clothes, and the air, so polyester clothes, smoke in the air, and the like. She also has a few reindeer features like antlers and a tail. Imo much more fitting for the daughter of a nature goddess.
My favorite SCP is SCP-5031, its a genuinely a sweet story where you think "oh its just another murder monster nothing special" but they learn and connect with people and like to cook. I love this guy so much
What a sweet sir!!
I think that it was a response to the amount of "oh yeah it's just a soulless monster that hates people" scp's out there
That's one of my favorites. I'm eternally made at whoever was in charge before who basically threw an immortal toddler into a box and left them
My favorite is probably 5558. It’s about an 18 year old who goes by Princess and can’t respond to anything else. It has an anomalous head deformity that turns their head into a huge ball of flesh with 50-100 facial features (eyes, noses, ears…). Objects such as sex toys, porn magazines, and soda teleport near it. It’s super damn weird but I love it.
Finally another 5031 enjoyer
My absolute favorite is no one dies alone. Scp 4999 appears to individuals that are alone at their death from one way or another. Before they die he gives them a chance to get comforted.
Was there a story about him coming to a dude in a car wreck and gives him a cigarette and phone call?
@@kirkbarnett1231 yeah I saw that a few weeks ago. It's neat they gave made a video on that story.
Reminds me of Third Man Syndrome. An unseen presence reported by mountain climbers and explorers during traumatic survival situations that talks to the victim, gives practical advise and encouragement. Basically a real life version of 4999, just _before_ you die. It's one of my favorite pieces of fact
Kinda reminds me of Scythe Faradays ending from the Toll
I liked world war Zs 3rd man experience story about the sole survivor of a plane bailout over lousiana.
I've been marathoning your videos happily, and was so happy to hear you're into SCP too! Gate Guardian is my favorite 001 possibility too.
I love listening to you man, sometimes when I'm not feeling like myself or I'm feeling depressed or straight out confused, I sometimes come to your channel, and you calm me down while keeping me entertained, and I also learn stuff Thanks, man.
Ngl, as horrifying as the "pattern screamer" scenario would be to experience, the concept is extremely fascinating.
Yeah it’s kind of next level disturbing
Its basically not existing but...worse
@@see4881 it's like existing, but not in a way you're used to so nothing makes sense, and nothing exists around you, but you're fully aware of your surroundings (or lack thereof) and are also aware of the fact that there are things that exist, somewhere, but for some reason you can't find or access them, and it's forever and you're not allowed to die.
My favorite O-5 XIII story is that all other O-5 council members are anomalous, but he is not, and they are trying to figure out in what way he is anomalous. But the reason he is a normal human to keep a human perspective on the council.
Ahh the Pedestrian.
Allah akbar
I heard a cool paradox about that, one of the laws of the universe or whatever is that all the O5s have to be anomalous, but 05-13 isn't, that means they break the known laws of the universe, which makes him anomalous, which means that they're now following the laws of the universe, which means they're anomalous...
@@itzzausty basically O5-13 is either anomalous as in to break the O5 rules, or he is a living paradox which is also anomalous
I've never heard of SCP before. These are so cool! I can imagine this as a really great anthology television series.
Wow thankyou for this video! The SCP foundation is definitely my new obsession. I would love to see more video’s where you talk about specific storylines more extensively, kinda like you did with the conspiracy theory iceberg. I would definitely watch! Just putting that out there🫣❤️
I like the idea that 231 is just a short little bedtime story and they give her a kiss on the head and turn on her nightlight and leave :)
Another proposal for 231 was the last lady gave birth to SCP 999, the Tickle Monster
It’s more wholesome that way
Especially since on the article itself the redaction of the girl’a age is only one square meaning she was at most 9 years old when she was rescued. Even if Montauk is a bedtime story, the idea of a perpetually pregnant primary school girl is still terrifying
@@emilybarclay8831 i mean if thinking that the girl is being tortured is enough, wld it not also make sense that all the babies have been born but they lie? maybe even going as far as to use amnesiacs on themselves? so mayb she’s okay sbakdbskjd
@@sleepyqueer there is a theory that the last girl gave birth to 999 and that he’s in his infancy and that he’ll one day defeat his father with love. Usually 682 is said to be it’s brother which is why they got along the one time they met
Idk why, but Cognitohazardous SCPs were always my favourite. *You do not recognize the bodies in the water.*
ngl i still don't get that one. there's something about high school band and a lake, but that's it
@@rainbowdash9388 If I remember correctly how it works is that the lake causes you to see the bodies of loved ones floating in it, and you have to repeatedly say "I do not recognize the bodies in the water" otherwise you'll be compelled to go in the water to save them and die/disappear in the process.

D-Classes are kinda interesting to me, because they're treatment is actually somewhat complex. The worst, most violent criminals are usually (from what I remember) given the most torturous or dangerous tasks, but there's also D-Class that were never criminals and they usually get fairly decent (relatively speaking) treatment. Sometimes this means pleasant tests with SCPs that are in not dangerous but still need testing. Also, there are stories of D-Class being released when SCPs exonerate them.
May I recommend SCP-3000 and the theory that the foundation uses memetics to mind wipe people's minds and make them believe that they themselves are criminals """"deserving"""" of this?
I think one of my favourite examples of how to describe the 3 basic object classes is this one: A button that if pressed, destroys earth.

A cat that randomly switches locations with another cat is a Keter because it's nearly impossible to keep in that room.

Thaumiel: The parrot will actually prevent other parrots from doing anything Apollyon: The parrot is an ethereal entity, and there either is no known cage that can contain them, or putting them in a cage just causes bird poop to materialize on every surface in the neighborhood. Either way, the parrot wins in the end and there is no way to escape it. Neutralized: Parrot cannot poop no more Explained: It was just a normal parrot all along.. Who knew? Maskur: Some assembly of parrot required. Hiemal: The parrot keeps pooping on everyone's cars but it's the only thing preventing a flock of inter-dimensional demon parrots from entering our world and pooping on everything in existence, and if we put the first parrot in the cage, then the demon parrots will be free to come into our reality.

While watching this, at different times, I felt like entries you mentioned connected in some way to existing SCP-media, possibly making that media SCP-canon. for anyone interested, it was: the Umbrella Academy, which I think draws a lot from the overall vibe of SCP with parts of its third season, especially the hotel. specifically though, elements of the scarlet king and the seven children just sounded very familiar. the white queen is almost a one for one replica of jobu from everything everywhere all at once, including her motivation, origin story and once again, the overall vibe of the movie is very much in the same vein as a lot of SCP content. finally, bits of the sword and spear bits, with all the christian lore surrounding it reminded me of neon genesis evangelion, once again, the entire canon universe of EVA carries a similar energy to SCP and the way the spear of longinus is described in the rebuild movies mirrored bits of the SCP lore. other elements of EVA could also comfortable fit into SCP, more or less always balancing perfectly on the edge between something being completely horrific as a concept and being hilariously stupid. That is all just the intro to my real discovery though, based on googling "scp evangelion" and finding SCP entry 6224, which is a phenomenon wherein a certain facility would be infested in a way, after any person entered it, that had consumed media at all related to evangelion. upon them entering, items in the facility would start randomly becoming EVA-branded versions of themselves. most hilariously, the facility directors car (a porsche cayenna) gaining a large decal of a lewd/suggestive image of misato katsuragi (incident A129). I genuinely can't believe somebody came up with that, rather than anything serious but at the end of the day this is what I love about SCP.
