Episode three has escaped containment! Batten down the hatches and get your daily
dose of amnestics ready, because these skips don’t give a good gosh darn if you want
them to stay put. Hello horror heads, and welcome back to the
scariest channel on YouTube: Top 5 Scary Videos. I’m your horror host, Keegan Hughes, and
today we’re coming back with a brand new episode of the Top 5 Scariest SCP Creatures
that Managed to Escape - PART 3. Yeah, it happens more often than we’d like,
but hey! That’s all part of the anomalous entity gig!
Speaking of things we’d rather not let escape, let’s talk e-security!

NUMBER FIVE: SCP-4233 The brother of another SCP that managed to
escape, this fella tends to trudge around in an old-school diving suit.
You know the one, like from the Spongebob Movie, or akin to a Big Daddy from Bioshock.
Rigid, round metal helmet, weighted boots, glass window on the front.
Yeah, that kind. So this big, burly lad walks around with a
large, stockless anchor. This anchor is estimated to be over 500 kilograms,
and is covered in at least 75 years worth of algae, barnacles, etc.
His suit is opaque to all forms of imaging, and super impervious to damage.
Like, you could fire anti-tank missiles at it and it wouldn’t budge.
Hell, surface-to-surface missiles didn’t do a thing.
Any and all attempts to contain 4233 have resulted in failure, as he tends to just ignore
them. Put a barricade in front of him? He’ll walk
right through it. Sent a task force to slow him down? It’s
like they’re not even there. Oh, and when I say he walks through stuff,
I don’t mean like a ghost. I mean like a wrecking ball. 4233 will walk
straight through a wall, leaving it to crumble behind him.
Appearances are erratic, but its behaviour is predictable.
It will just show up on a beach on any given occasion, and walk straight out of the water.
Then this lumbering lad will walk at a gradual pace in a straight line, only altering trajectory
to avoid injuring civilians, animals, and large plants.
If you are a log, an unattended vehicle, or an abandoned building, sorry, you’re out
of luck. This ancient mariner will plow right through
you. He’ll remain on this path until making it
to the ocean once more, sometimes walking across entire continents over a period of
months. Once back in the ocean, it will set down the
anchor, clap its hands once, pick the anchor back up, and walk back into the sea.
Somehow, it has never walked into any major population centers.
It's likely this was a conscious choice. In a quick radio-based conversation with the
sea-faring suit-wearer, it was revealed that he is related! To! MOON CHAMPION! CHAMPION
OF THE MOON! Now we need a team-up tale where they get
together and fight sea-baddies and space-baddies together. And solve crimes. And there’s
a talking animal sidekick. Make it happen, SCP writers!
NUMBER FOUR: SCP-303 Ah yes, the door… thing…
Love me a nude, secless, emaciated humanoid with a giant mouth full of giant teeth and
no other discernible facial features. My favourite!
This wheezing, wah-inducing person-shaped entity loves to materialize just outside of
any closed door. Why? Who knows.
Anyone who has encountered 303 can describe it in full, even if they didn’t actually
see it. This is odd, especially considering the fact
that it doesn’t let anyone see more than 10% of it at a time.
In fact, if someone views it directly, it will straight up disappear.
And if it’s waiting outside of a clear door, like say a sliding glass entrance, it will
fog up the material as to not be seen. Resourceful.
One it materializes behind the entryway barrier of choice, it will remain there for an indeterminate
amount of time. Sometimes it's a few hours, sometimes it's
weeks! Doorman roulette! Anyone on the other side of the hatch will
then be paralyzed by a crippling fear until it dematerializes.
The source of the fear is unclear, but has been determined to be similar to arachnophobia,
on a sort of preconscious, genetic level. At one point, it waited outside a set of doors
long enough so that the man on the other side died of dehydration.
Whether it meant to kill the man is up for debate.
Lastly, 303 loves to snag all sorts of items, and bring them to its hiding place, although
the purpose of this behaviour has yet to be figured out.
So in the meantime, let’s keep hoping it won’t materialize in the outside world!
I like my freedom of movement! NUMBER THREE: SCP-076
Classic Abel! We’re all at least somewhat familiar with
this OG SCP, correct? You know, he hangs out in his big stone cube,
goes on a killing spree from time to time, will only stop if someone kills him, superhuman
abilities, hates Cain, you know! With his insane strength, speed, and tenacity,
it’s no wonder Abel has escaped containment a few times.
He’s able to ignore pain and shock, and press through debilitating wounds in order
to stay on the warpath. We’ve seen him rip through reinforced doors
barehanded, cover 64 meters in 3 seconds, eat 50 cal rounds to the head, swat handgun
rounds out of the air, survive for an hour without oxygen, and even materialize bladed
weapons out of nowhere. The man goes full terminator-mode. Sarah Connor
doesn’t stand a chance. If you kill Abel, he’ll turn to dust and
return to the cube, and eventually start all over again.
At one point, the Foundation attempted to use him as an asset.
This led to a pretty famous instance of him escaping.
They would send him on missions as the perfect killing machine, but often found it difficult
to keep him engaged, and not fighting his own teammates.
Of course, he eventually went rogue, and had to be put down.
Wanna know how they did it? Because it sure wasn’t the detonator collar around his neck.
Nope! They had to set off the on-site nuclear warheads.
COME ON ABEL! THOSE AREN’T CHEAP! NUMBER TWO: SCP-4975
Nursery rhymes are universally creepy, right? Like as a kid, you don’t think much of them,
because they’re really all you know. But as you get a little older, you take a
closer look and think.. Holy crap why are we singing about the bubonic plague?
Well, 4975 is the subject of many German folk tales and nursery rhymes.
Yup! Dating all the way back to 1538. Some serious history in this one.
And like most good nursery rhymes, it’s all real, baby.
4975 is a big, tall, skinny bird man with a large beak.
The cervical vertebrae in its spine are not interconnected, and actually move independent
of one another. It constantly rotates them, one vertebra at
a time, causing a rhythmic clicking sound each time.
This only stops when it’s preparing to attack. The bird will stalk victims for months at
a time, before killing them by bludgeoning and tearing their flesh.
Then, it will eat the cadaver, which often lasts up to 3 months.
I wish my food would last that long… Right now, the classification is up in the
air. Keter-pending, and I’ll explain why in a moment.
It’s hard to say whether this counts as an escape or not, but it appears that the
killings have continued even after containing 4975.
The Foundation was investigating the reports of a German man who complained about hearing
constant rhythmic clicking for months. This seemed odd, as the creature was in containment.
Foundation agents were following the man around when the clicking stopped, causing him to
panic. He pointed frantically at something, but the
agents couldn’t see whatever it was. The man then began exhibiting many wounds
consistent with those from 4975 attacks, all the while 4975 remained still in the chamber.
Strips of flesh were pulled from the man’s body in Germany, and then vanished.
4975 was seen eating after this, despite not being fed.
So somehow, this big, belligerent bird can impose its presence on people even when it’s
not physically there. Again, does that count as escape?
NUMBER ONE: SCP-5999 This is part of the brand new mystery category
for series six. Like BRAND NEW.
Like, people are still in the discussion, right now, trying to piece together clues.
Go check it out! It has yet to be fully solved, and I do not
claim to fully understand it. BUT!
I do claim to have accidentally released it by reading the entry all the way to the end.
Terminal view. Headphones on. Sorry guys, I biffed it.
There are seven main parts to this entry, each a sort of scary story in its own right.
Each time you make it through a part of the entry, a candle is extinguished.
It sort of works the same way that The Game of 100 Ghost Stories works.
In this old parlor game, 100 candles would be lit in a dark room.
Participants would tell a ghost story, then extinguish a candle.
You were supposed to do this until 100 tales were told, and 100 candles were out.
Most of the time people chicken out, leaving at least one candle burning.
If all the candles go out, it is a perfect place for the evocation of spirits.
So in this entry, we start with 7 candles, one for each part, a story being told in each.
Its expected that the reader will stop at some point.
They’re warned many times not to read on, under threat of chains slackening, spirits
being released, death, etc. There are even scary noises and glitches that
persist to help the reader make the correct decision: to leave.
However, being a dumbass and all, I read all the way to the end, extinguishing all of the
candles. Which, of course, released the spirit.
I should be dead by all accounts. But hey! Go give it a try yourself, see what
happens! Still, there are lots of unanswered questions.
What happened to the bodies mentioned in the story? How does this connect to SCP 5000?
What’s up with the video game? Who are the Prodigy, Priest, and King?
I’d keep an eye on this one and see how the theories develop, it’s mighty wicked.
However, witnesses did indeed release something from Foundation custody.
Whatever it is, it escaped. OUTRO
Well, I sure don’t feel any safer after running down those entries.
What do you think? Excited for the new series 6 entries?
Any theories about 5000 or 5999 you wanna share?
Any SCP escapees you think should have made the list?
Make sure you let me know down in the comments! Speaking of comments, let’s take a look
at some of your more ambiguous ones from the TOP 5 SCP MONSTERS THAT CAN NEVER ESCAPE - PART
10: Toco Cat says “I’m not gonna lie I do
want to pet the giant snake just once” One is never enough! You’ll give it like
5 pats and then succumb to necrosis! Maxsim Baker says “Imagine all these SCPs
escaping and fighting eachother” We could finally get a follow up to The Ultimate
Showdown of Ultimate Destiny! Good guys, bad guys and explosions, as far as the eyes can
see” William Jacobs says “Keegan. Sup fam?”
I’m just out here filming videos, waiting for my pizza to show up, you know the deal.
What’s up with you? ALL SORTS OF FOLKS: “772 or 722”
722. Great work team. Slatt Mafia asks “What is SCP?”
Super Crich Pids with nothing but loose ends. Super Crich Pids with nothing but fake friends.”
