for those of you that are familiar with the inner workings of that dank and
deadly place known only is the SCP foundation you'll know that pretty much
anything and everything that involves the titular scp-096 is also known as a
very very bad thing well the shyguy has managed too much
that are pretty hefty following thanks to his horrifying shenanigans an entire
series of containment sites they've passed him from pillar to post shipping
him more regularly than Malfoy and Harry hoping never to accidentally catch his
eye before dropping him on the next unassuming foundation researcher as
there unsolvable problem to solve but in this hypothetical scenario it's happened
again SCP oh nine six has escaped and this
time it's worse than ever hello Internet what's going on and once
again welcome back to the most inquisitive channel on YouTube life's
biggest questions as per usual I'll be your disembodied floating voice
Jack Finch as today we curiously ask the question what if scp-096 escaped Robert
to the curious amongst you that clip was from the awesome 2011 Australian found
footage horror the tunnel and it's probably the closest visual depiction of
how quickly and unequivocally unstoppable scp-096 truly is plus also
for those of you familiar with just exactly how scp-096 hunts down its prey
then you'll realize the dangers of any photo recent depiction of this
particular anomalous entity I was trying to keep you safe guys trying being the
definitive word for those of you that don't know anything about scp-096 or
even the wider SCP foundation for that matter now would be high time to head
over to our playlist and check out our feature video on the shy guy himself but
for those of you that haven't let's give you guys a quick rundown on the inner
mechanics and one of the most terrifying entities under the Foundation's
containment now also it's important to note that inserting canons scp-096 was
actually killed under orders of the o-5 council but for the sake of this
hypothetical video obviously we have to disregard certain parameters in that
case don't worry guys he's still alive and kicking oh no as the record stays
scp-096 is a euclid class humanoid entity that measures approximately two
point three eight meters in height which exhibits very little muscle mass with
preliminary analysis of its physical formation suggesting marred malnutrition
its arms are grossly out of proportion with the rest of its body with an
approximate length of 1.5 meters each on top of that it's skin is mostly devoid
of any kind of pigmentation and after all that it's pretty safe to say that
scp-096 isn't exactly easy on the eyes but eyes are a stark reality for this
anomalous entity because it has one particular function that quickly puts an
end to any and every visual critic that SCP oh nine six has ever had the real
kicker is whenever someone views scp-096 is face be it directly via video
recording or even a photograph then it will enter a stage of considerable
emotional distress scp-096 will then cover its face with its hands begins
screaming crying and babbling incoherently after a few short minutes
the person that has inadvertently viewed the entity will then be designated
scp-096 1 and the creature will rapidly commence movement towards their location
at this point scp-096 becomes unstoppable and I'm me
now in the truest sense of the word so much so that its victims have even been
reached whilst travelling in a commercial airliner 30,000 feet above
the ground or at the bottom of the ocean in fact no no material or method could
impede the progress of scp-096 and because of that it has a 100% kill rate
with every and all of its victims being efficiently and completely consumed by
the creature now it's safe to say that the shyguy has been a metaphorical thorn
in the Foundation's side and historically they've been at a complete
dead end in terms of solving this horrifying creatures design under a
containment breach the Foundation's only hope has been to quickly deploy
personnel to what they believe to be the targets location where they would then
round up any and all nearby civilians wrap them in a blindfold and hope for
the best they then wait for another capable
mobile task force to deploy on the scene where they hope that scp-096 is
distracted enough to slip a bag over its head
it's safe to say that this method of negation hasn't exactly had a very high
success rate but what do we do because right now under this hypothetical
situation you your best friend your Aunt Sally the guy lives at the end of the
street whoever it does not matter they've been looking through old
photographs of their trip to the Swiss Alps when in the corner of a certain
breathtaking Vista they noticed a few out of place pixels that sort of look
like some strange skinny creature well unfortunately for them the clock's
ticking because without realizing they've just seen scp-096 and their day
is about to get considerably shorter now let's say that the foundation aren't
expecting a breach of this magnitude and before we know it the core goes over the
radio and a code lemur is declared that's bad by the way geography is
incredibly important in this hypothetical situation so let's say for
maximum calamity scp-096 is target is located on a separate continent let's
say that the creature breaches containment in the United States and our
unassuming victim is in Germany with no idea about what chain of events that
they've just kicked off as the record states oh nine six is speed of movement
has varied from 35 kilometers per hour to 900 kilometers per hour but in
experiment oh nine six one the creature traveled off the coast of Western
Australia to the Tonga train in a little over an hour that's a speed
of roughly 3,000 kilometers per hour it's safe to assume at that speed oh
nine six would ravage their way across the United States hell-bent for the
Atlantic Ocean and that that unholy trajectory hopefully it would diminish
any kind of visual exposure hopefully once the creature hits the ocean though
that's a bit of breathing room for the foundation to deploy some kind of
preventative method as oh nine six will be traveling through the ocean for a
little over two hours thankfully the shy guy is strapped with a geolocation
collar at all times and the foundation could track the creatures target
destination via satellite moving the nearest foundation personnel in place
but how does the foundation ever hope to completely evacuate the best part of
Western Europe before scp-106 gets there now in all likelihood the creature would
only have to travel through France before it makes its way into Germany but
both countries take up the largest landmass in the whole of Europe with
some of the most densely populated civilian sectors in the world visual
exposure of the creature would be absolutely devastating unless of course
the foundation deployed the one tactic that they've always managed to avoid
picture this you're going about your day you're on your way to work or you're out
shopping with a friend when suddenly every screen in your surrounding
vicinity starts playing the same tone an emergency broadcast your phone starts
vibrating with an emergency response now a public service announcement it says to
ensure your own survival reach a safe location close your eyes keep them sure
do not open them until further instruction what would you do would you
keep them shut would you think it was some bizarre out of place April Fool's
joke from the government I was you heed their warning stop what you're doing and
close your eyes the fact of the matter is this is exactly why scp-096 is so
damn dangerous it's almost the most uncontainable entity in the foundations
containment and the reason why they fear an XK class extinction event involving o
9 6 so much it's because once it's out its out kicking off a chain reaction
that could potentially spell the deaths of thousands upon thousands of innocent
bystanders vision is its weapon and unfortunately for us we live in the most
visually accessible a ever known so if the call came over to
close your eyes in an effort to ensure your own survival would you would you
risk taking a peek well there we have it a start warning sign for what to do if
scp-096 ever escaped what do you guys think will
you keep your eyes closed let us know your thoughts down in the conversation
below before we depart from today's video though if you're on a particularly
anomalous SCP binge make sure to check out our recent SCP bass playlist where
you can dive down the rabbit hole of all our hypothetical shenanigans on that
note though Cheers we'll stick around all the way until the end if you were a
fan of this video or just life's biggest questions in general then please be a
dear and hit that thumbs up button as well as I subscribed out and I'll be
seeing you in the next one as per usual I've been noticing body flowing voice
Jack Vince you've been watching life's biggest questions and until next time
