@@nom6758 Hmph, how about 0-Nouu 🥺 Like oh no... 🤣
@@ilewtf2234 oh thanks for explaining that
SCP writers come up with such raw lines, forcing the hand of god sounds so badass.
I wouldn't say they came up with it as there's a very popular book by the same name and "forcing God's hand" is a semi common term in some religious circles. Still badass though!
no seriously. this thing a quiet madness made is my favorite scp and the name is just as good as the actual entry
@@sieveign Bruh, or The Star, The Hateful? So badass
@@thatsscarybruh when day breaks is pretty dope too
I genuinely think they write stories just to put something behind the titles. Honestly it's good motivation. Also scp 5935 "blood and the breaking of my heart" is another good one with a great title.
It’s a cycle of SCP-2000 and SCP-3069 activating and reactivating over and over. They are rediscovered every cycle and by way of ancient agreements, let it happen over and over.
Duck Season! Rabbit Season! Duck Seson! Rabbit Season! And so on and on.
@@Awesomotron2k FIRE!
I bet it was created by a previous version of the Foundation for an extinct form of Normalcy from before a reality restructuring event changed life on Earth to be carbon based, and it's now attempting to restore that previous iteration of Normalcy.
yes until one brave intelligent soul straps a nuke to one of the underwater drones and blows the shit out of the inside of the structure
@@Awesomotron2k lmao, brilliant my guy
Considering their reaction to it there is absolutely no fathomable way that whatever life forms are running that facility have not already made contact with either the overseer or the 05 council. One of those "accept the new normal" kind of thing.
That's a chilling prospect to think of in the face of our current "new normal"....
@@EnvisionerWill My guess is that the device likely emits a form of suppression field that merely obscure any thoughts about hostile actions towards it. It is simple, it is efficient and it is less likely to cause inherent resistance to form.
I mean, the O5s *have,* on at least two timelines, used anomalous means to achieve immortality. I wouldn't put it past them to suck up to alien invaders if it saved their skins.
@@thebighurt2495 It saves Humanity's skins too, as they said they will activate SCP-2000 once this is all over.
My personal theory with this one is that the O5 council struck some sort of deal with these entities. The expunged part on the part that’s already high level clearance may have been when the entities used the D class to communicate and make the deal.
Interesting theory
The fact that the D-Class interaction was expunged when everything else was able to be seen except for *three specific 05s?* Yeah, it sounds like they communicated via this person to those members of the council.
I feel like the whole structure is some kind of SCP 2000 for some aquatic sapient life
They made a deal with death sometimes, so I 100% see this happening I actually would even to say O5-1 is one of those who are involved in this deal
Dang I'm relistening to this 4 weeks after the original air date and this sounds the most plausible. Especially since they are just kind of, "Oh well..." about it at the end of the entry.
"The pipes snapped under her weight" "Why didn't she just... swim? You're underwater." "I don't know, but I can still hear her." "No you can't." "We're communicating via radio, so-" "Nope" "Oh"
I am pretty sure they were referring to The weight of her being pulled by the current
@@busterc1760 So she was holding the pipes to fight the current and trying to drag herself through it? That makes sense, I guess, it just still feels phrased oddly.
@@versebuchanan512 it definitely could have been worded better
I was not prepared for him to run out of absolutely fire intros, but I accept your meta, if not somewhat immersion breaking, intro. You’re a legend for having done so many episodes, and I’m surprised it took you this long to run out of intros for a specific setting.
Not to mention he more than makes up for it with the outro
@@jordanpaldino All hail our Sulfur overlords!
Ditto. Damn well know i couldn't keep up constant quality like this
What ?
If you’re gonna break immersion, might as well do it when you’re the least immersed.
What I most appreciate about your scp videos is that you don't just do a narration of the article word for word, don't get me wrong that kind of content is still awesome to see, but you provide your own take on it, explaining what actually happens in the story of the article and what you think it all means, it's definitely unique and absolutely sparks the imagination further into discussion of the article itself in a new way than simply reading it Your content is really appreciated, love your stuff mate, keep it up 🤘
He mostly just does that for stories or articles that have journal entries, like the House of the Worm SCP.
Yes. And he's entirely serious about everything.
Yes! Absolutely LOVE these videos!! ~ and this narrator is totally 💯 perfect! I do love his seriousness, really sets off his greatly detailed descriptions of everything. These SCP videos are some of the best finds I’ve had the pleasure of in a VERY long time now. So professionally and interestingly worded , well-put cases and information. Just really loving all of these stories!! Thank you ever so much for all of your efforts. They are much appreciated! 😊
He is SCP explained but good
Anyone else remember his original intros he always did where he'd say three adjectives or traits of the subject of the video? Like for example: The Crawling Chaos, The Faceless God, Messenger of the Elder God's- Nyarlathotep. He did that for every video for the first year or two.
Hello mr narrator. I just want to say you’re one of my favorite KZheadrs over all. You’re amazing and I hope you have great success
Agreed
@@ryadh456 So say we all.
You can call him "Mang".
@@EspeonMistress00 where does this name come from
@@gage2040 It comes from his 2nd channel "ManggsLps".
I love the line "if you're feeling uncomfortable we can always send in some d class" like I love how blunt and cruel that line is
A completely original yet classic cosmic horror. Well done once again with the masterful narration. Don't sweat the intro, you owe us nothing.
As middling as this SCP is in my opinion, the name is too awesome. _To Force the Hand of God._ Fucking shivers.
It really doesn't mesh with the article itself
I don’t know if you’re aware of this, but your story readings have helped a lot of people decompress during the last hard couple of years.
Just got in my bed after a car accident today. Wanted to listen to something to finally fall asleep and you post, thank you for the time and effort you put into every video
Also trying to listen to this to help fall asleep, however I think it might be having the opposite effect.
Saw this comment and felt the absolute need to say I hope you are okay and all goes well with your situation G.
Hey get well soon. Hope that you're doing okay
Thoughts and prayers my lil bro died in a car accident last week
Glad you're still here. Hope anybody else involved is okay.
You are one of maybe six channels that I genuinely eagerly wait for uploads from. Everything you do is fire, thank you for always producing such quality content. See you next week, man
What are the other 5?
@H-BOMB same
@@Steyr32 me too
I'm pretty sure rebreathers work by removing exhaled carbon dioxide from the air inside them, and recirculate said air in a closed system. They don't intake or filter anything from the outside environment.
The damage Spy Kids has done will never be undone.
@@xXthevenomousXx I guess you could say Spy Kids took a piss on people's understanding of Rebreathers?
@@xXthevenomousXx please share with us your portfolio of popular entertainment
@@INFILTR8US I dunno what you're asking.
That intro.....I just love this guy. I love when we get little glimpses of his personality in the writing
just listened to scp 4431and now this. these transforming the earth into an alien planet for creatures who lost their homes scp’s are terrifying man
We’re just happy your posting quality content! We like your intros we think they’re really catchy. It’s kinda like your own version of “in a world where _”
Love that kind of setting, that expand upon primary biological concepts and explore theme of extraterrestrial contacts from another angle. Funny seeing such concepts as terraforming being inverted, because we only know what is inhabitable by our own standards x)
Great observation!
It’s 3:05 am here. I’m already playing dying light 2 so my dreams are gonna be wild when I get to sleep.
Perfect for my horrendous sleep schedule
Just got home after bringing my daughter to the kindergarten. Lovely listen while cleaning. Thanks exploring series ❤️
Flubbed the takeoff, nailed the landing.
Great video. Loving the aquatic SCPs lately. Something about the ones under the sea make them feel more real/eerie.
A neo-cambrian explosion. Fascinating
Imagine the incorporeal thing in the beginning saying to itself “UNACCEPTABLE. UNACCEPTABLE. ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE”
My boy went so long for so many years and just now ran out for aquatic scps, we still are all thankful for these audiobooks to listen to at like 2:40 in the morning
He still hasn't covered the Endless Fish
….this is a very extreme subnautica mod.
Sounds like it might be an alternate SCP foundation's version of the 2000 Yellowstone facility given that the animals produced and released are mundane albeit alien.
But SCP-2000 dosent terraform the environement does it? Thought it just creates new human bodies
@@Jackdman25 I don't think 3069 directly terraforms though, it's just that the life it creates is incompatible with us. The green lights are destructive to our organics, but nothing else.
@@Jackdman25cant it set time backwards?
What a great way to spend Valentine's day.
I blame these amazing videos for my bad sleep schedule. They are posted at 3:00am local time on a school night for me.
I have to take a few months break from your materials so I don't run out. When I do I always go back to the ones that really make me feel like if we lived in the scp universe we'd have such a grand time. I also enjoy the ones that are surprisingly sad for the scp universe.
oceans are weird. love your videos dude. i love your professionalism so when you break character it cracks me like the "most of us call these days, saturday" line from the church of the second hytoth video, or the Drax joke from the hereafter video.
Another absolute banger. You've never missed and continue to be my favorite SCP KZheadr
I don’t work mondays so I love staying up and waiting for new Scp content. Keep it up man.
Nice to see this finally covered. This has been one I've been hoping you would tackle for a while. For some reason I really like this one.
First off, my favorite fiction channel. Fantastic as always. Second, I love the old school Simpsons’ reference as the last line! That was from season 5, I believe? Kent Brockman (news anchor) welcomes “our new *insect* overlords.” Even over 20 years later that line makes me laugh. The whole setup to the joke is priceless. Simpsons in their prime.
"Now we turn to our expert." [Kent turns to the expert whose name I forget] "Would you say it's time for our viewers to break open the heads of their neighbors like ripe melons?" "Yes, I would, Kent." "Well, there you have it, folks."
Thank you so much for posting!! Now I got something that will get me through doing household chores! Thanks for your hardwork and have a good day/night
With as many good intros as you’ve had, I’m really not surprised that at some point you might run short especially when focusing on a more specific subject, tbf it’s not like it diminishes the quality of the rest of the video in any way
I love these aquatic structure SCPs. Something about the unknown depths just gets my mind wondering. Same with space SCPs.
Hell yes! Ty for the amazing content, it keeps me going during the weeks!
I wonder if there are any valentine related scp’s, would be interesting to see them if there are any
Well there actually is a SCP that’s a love matchmaker machine that prints out a card with info on a person that is 100% positive to be your soulmate.
@@undeadprinceofchaos3731 a good scp? nice
@@disconnected7737 Well not all SCPs are killer monsters and objects that threaten human life. Some are actually pretty beneficial or even friendly.
I think he allredy metion SCP 2203 (the matchmaker) in one of his beneficial SCP videos
@@undeadprinceofchaos3731 I know, I just never heard of that one before
Always looking forward to the next video, checking your channel is the first thing I do on youtube. Keep up the fantastic work
Ok so, with the temporal anomaly twist and the presented symbols, I have a pretty interesting theory for this. The symbols on the first sign, Protect, Location, Danger and Stream. It's pretty much the same meaning as Secure Protect Contain, with contain being symbolised as "danger" and a force stopping it, a river or stream. Then the second sign basicaly says "Transport Produce Area Again - Build Earth Life". So, with that, plus the O5 council not seeming to care after communicating with the SCP through the jellyfish D-Class, I'm pretty sure this is some version of the foundation, maybe from the future, maybe one that existed in the past. In any case, they are trying to help speed up earth's evolution, possibly to prepare it for something that's approaching. So yea, that's my theory there.
If they are from the future, then why were these words written in Egyptian and Ki'makq?
@@jakespacepiratee3740 Huh, didn't consider that. They say the language only resembles those languages, so they could just be using a similar writing system. Then again it may be a weird mix of future and past. Like, ancient precursor to the foundation that achieved time travel and are trying to prevent some future disaster by any means nessesary.
@@manosmag3998 My problem is that how could the creatures inside this machine even know these languages when they dont even seem to be Humanoid, as when they possess Human bodies, they become severely damaged and all torn up. And I dont think the languages being here can be written off as "they taught it to us Centuries ago" if thats true, then why do they need to terraform Earth to live here, and possess Human bodies? This is what has stumped me the most about this SCP.
Very happy to see another video from you! Can't get enough!
Happy Valentine's Day to my favourite SCP channel
When insomnia strikes, but there's a new exploring series vid.
At least I'm not the only one
This was a well written piece. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you for all the work that you do. Have a great day.
This was a great end to a pretty awful day. Thanks for the amazing quality, your videos are always great!
Your videos are great for a spooky lunchtime. Thx for the entertainment !
Foundation: There's nothing we can do but wait until we can activate SCP-2000. GOC: Have y'all even considered the "high explosive" option?
How tf is your comment here 2 days before the video comes out? Teach me your magic ways

Thank you for consistently bringing quality breakdowns of all the wonderful SCPs out in the universe!
I was absolutely not prepared for that intro, either way i love what you do, keep it up
Thank you for making such good content
Happy Valentine's day 💜💙
Oh my, this is so well narrated!! good video bro!
This is one of my all time favorites. I listen to it often.So glad to see this definitive version.
Thank you so much for covering this SCP. The only other video made on it that I watched was so low quality it made it hard to follow. Keep up the great work man!
Eastside's reading?
I wasn't going to mention the youtuber by name, but it is pretty obvious >.
@@Deathpikachu Fair enough. While I personally disagree, though, I respect your opinion.
@@Lunar994 his audio is garbanzo on any device that can stream above 144p normally. Even yeti mics can get better sound. His production value is low and it shows, its not an offensive statement to make because its just straight facts. Its about taking that fact and improving his videos from that critisism that makes a content creator go from Niche to iconic. Think the difference between exploring series and them and you could find a few examples of improvements they could make.
@@nom6758 I never said I was offended
Good sir, your voice brings me much comfort and I have no idea why. Overall pleasant and relaxing
I love this SCP! I’m so glad you’re doing this one. ❤️
SCP-5000
I misheard Lockwood as Blackwood and got excited for a minute lmao
Straight to it!!! Love it!!! This stuff keeps my brain on its edge, have loved your content and will forever and ever
This is exactly what i needed for some good sleep tonight
Genuine question, but where do you find the awesome artwork for your videos? I wouldn’t even know how to begin to search for some of these underwater-flavored images. Bravo 👏
I really like your videos bro Keep up the good work!
I've LOVED this scp and I couldn't wait for it to be covered on this channel! LETS GOOOO!!!!
Outstanding video as always, thank you
I love this underwater series, please do moreee!
Bravo. Amazing as always
Love what you do man great job 🤙
Can't wait to listen to this after school in 12 hours. I should probably get some sleep.
This might be my new favorite scp log from you.
YES YES YES GOD I WAS WAITING SO LONG FOR YOU TO COVER THIS ONE
Brilliant this video made my tuesday! Thanks.
The prologue just made that last line even funnier. Well played, sir.
TY AGAIN FOR ANOTHER AMAZING BED TIME STORY
One of my personal favs.
The intro gave me a giggle. Thanks man
Was mid passing out when you uploaded, so now I have some flavor for my dreams
Perfect timing to get me to sleep!
Aliens: we have spent millions of years on our plain to terraform our new home world! Foundation: * laughs in SCP-2000*
favorite outro in the series so far.
Thank you for doing these. I don't have time* to sit and read or browse anything on any forum or platform. I have to watc cut scenes of video games..no time to play
I liked that honest intro, was better than anything you could have forced
Love these aquatic SCPs
This seems to be an active threshold of the universe hole punch type wherein the facility sits both inside and outside of our universe. This would explain the issue of what seems to be an ocean where the earths crust should be. Possible fixes: Inverted scranton reality anchors that create low hum feild which in turn causes the facility and whatever it releases to degrade immensely before it enters the earths waters. Forced closure of the rift: I dont know where the rift is but it seems to exist in the area where the earths crust should be. Attempting to bomb the building area: this involves sending a nuke past the grating and into that stream the nova team member disappeared into.
Road to ONE MILLION!!! LET'S GO!!!
I haven't heard the whole thing yet but god damn that title is metal
I love the intro!
I love these thank you
Nice little reference at the end there, nice touch 😁
Loved the video, you should also do a video(s) on the backrooms, their wiki is extensive and there's a lot of intricacies as well
I've just recently found your channel. I'm hooked.
Love the Mr. Northwest reference at the end. Lol
A fine job, researcher.
On that aquatic train chief, it's awesome but I like the alternate universe/reality ones personally
I legit stay up til about 2:00am or so every Sunday night just so I can fall asleep to your newest videos and then actually listen and pay attention to them throughout the rest of the week.
I don't know much about SCUBA, but you'd think a body with as much resources as the foundation could make tanks with 60 minutes of air and enough buffer to surface. Maybe they are like that and the return trip just takes 20 minutes, I don't know.
If it is indeed temporal, it is likely from the future, maybe a threat deems it be viable and necessary for earth life to evolve, but it was to late in the future to initiate this, so it was sent to 2020, intentionally meant for 1940s, meaning they, these sulfur humanoids, have seen this time line as still viable if they accelerate the aqua-terraformation event a bit more and a bit faster, they can still reach the required goal. Why they look similar to missing personnel is likely due to the the temporal effect of their presumably dead future bodies reanimating in the future and coming back via SCP-3069. This is as scary as that BASS STRAIT SCP. Love it 👌.
