Side note: during editing I remembered I heard “faeries” mentioned somewhere and realized they are the creatures from SCP-4000 aka “Taboo”. Just a link I didn’t remember until now. Also ty all you’re the best lol
"The prototype" is "the prototype" because it's a prototype document. It's using whats implied to be an older format of SCP document. Also, why do you refer to things that are just aspects to the story as theories? Like Dr. Keter = Keter classification, or the proposals in general? Also, as someone else said. Ethical felines refers to the ethics committee. Its really easy to figure if you do one of two things. 1. remember it's a good boy, aka a dog. and dogs hate cats, and the good boy hates the ethics committee. 2. replace feline with another word that relates with cats, is something you might call a cowered, and begins with a P. As for the Black Moon, there's just a lot of Arc Words across the SCP wikidot like "We die in the dark so you can live in the light." and "Can't fit round pegs in square holes."
It talks about in 4000 that the creatures fought with humans against the factory. Also The World's Gone Beautiful is probably related in some way to The Day All Flowers Bloomed from 1000
scp 002 was one the first scps the foundation contained.back then they used sd to transport it and local villagers as test subjects.its was found somewhere in northern portugal i think
This one is my favorite for exaclty that reason, it's super mundane and kinda silly. I didn't care about the rest of the bit about whatever you write becomes true, I just liked the "it's 001 because it's #1 on literally any list"
I wanted to comment this exact thing. They ruined it with the whole "Everything becomes true if you write it" nonsense. Having it be 001 just because its nature is to be #1 in every list would have been really funny, and if you imagine it just kind of existing on top of the already existing first thing, it doesnt even detract from a more serious 001 proposal. @@IgnisRex64
Hearing Wendigoon saying he’s blown away by having 7k subscribers really puts into perspective how fast he grew. You deserve all your success man, thank you for all your work
8:00 Wendigoon glossed over one of the coolest part about The Factory Proposal. It was not only the supposed origins of the foundation. It was also the supposed origins of EVERY other GOI in the canon. From Marshall, Carter, & Dark to The Church of The Broken God. They were all once part of the group who initially infiltrated the factory, that separated into different groups with different ideologies.
Imagine if it's because each group infiltrated from different locations and saw different things. GOI saw horrors beyond comprehension tearing people appart, hence their kill on site policy. The Church of the Broken God saw a mind altering machine which spoke to them of the broken God and it's power, hence their religious zelotism. I have no idea what MC&D does though. The Administrator may have seen multiple SCP's, most benign, some trying to help and others killing all those around them, hence the 'Secure, Contain and Protect' policy.
@@cookiecraze1310 they didn't see different things, no. They interpreted the things they saw differently is what happened. The founders of GOC thought the anomalous was so dangerous that they have to kill every last one, the founders of CoTBG thought the factory was part of their god, Marshall and Carter saw profit in these anomalous objects, etc
I can’t get over how much I love Gate Guardian as an SCP, just a fucking massive guardian and the only containment procedures are “stay away and idk pray i guess?” It can somewhat defy your free will by imprinting thoughts in you to leave but even if you come close enough it annihilates you at the atomic level with a sword measured in kilometers long.
It's sadly destroyed by its surrounding narrative ab the foundation being waaay too old and the fact that it's fucking massive and there is 0 chance no one would've found it other than the foundation prior to the foundation/solomon discovering it
@@Jiub_SNNo it doesn’t the foundation just could have been protecting it ever since Solomon discovered it and the gate guardian can erase peoples memories so maybe the gate guardian wanted Solomon to find him and start the foundation while he erased other peoples memories of it because it wasn’t them to discover it’s existence and start the foundation.
well there was a sticky note next to it that said "If you push this button, you'll destroy everything." and it was the physical origin of the SCP foundation with the specific goal of "preventing SCP-001-J from being pressed, either by careless accident or by deliberate malice, and also with the goal of 'protecting humanity from monsters and stuff.'"
@@VladimirChibuckovthere is a critical problem with SCP-001 "The lock". It can be opened by being smacked with another SCP-001 "The lock". SCP foundation: where did you get another lock??
Here's a few neat facts for you about some of these that people tend to forget: 1. "The Prototype" is called that because the article itself is a prototype, written during the Foundation's earliest days. It doesn't use the normal format of "how to contain it is more important than what it actually is, and therefore must come first". It instead gives a designation number, a warning of aggressive behavior, a description, and THEN details of its containment, before finishing with a report of its capture and an addendum which mentions the possible need for censorship in further articles. 2. "The Spiral Path" implies that the Administrator used it to discover how anomalies work, and therefore implies that Foundation does not DISCOVER anomalies, it CREATES them. Or rather, it did, until they started appearing on their own. 3. "God's Blind Spot" is important not just because people there cannot die, but because supposedly God literally cannot see into it, and therefore any sins committed while on its premises can never be judged. Perfect for a group of people who commit horrible atrocities on a daily basis. 4. The computer in "A Good Boy" was given the designator "Type AK9 Computational Engine". In other words, it thinks it's a dog. This is why it's obsessed with the idea of "good boys". And also why it hates cats. 5. In "The Sky Above the Port", the shadow represents the audience, and therefore you, the viewer. Without new stories, the Foundation's world would cease to exist. Because of course it would, it's a writing project.
My idea for SCP-001 is something that would be seen as an anomaly a few centuries ago but can be explained now like a one way mirror. It would give the foundation hope that we could fine the answers to other SCPs in the future.
Something like this already happened, with uranium. I mean there were these weird glowing rocks that burned you with fire you can’t see, dosent that sound like an SCP?
That idea already exists! it's called "SCP-001-EX-J" and it's about a prehistoric version of the foundation describing how they discovered fire and learnt how to use it.
Hi there! I just wanted to say that I am the person who created the artwork used for The Prototype! Absolutely crazy, I made that yeeeears ago on a deviantArt I'd long forgotten about. I'm actually working on some new pieces now and had this playing in the background. My apologies if you had asked about it a long time ago and I'd just forgotten about that interaction. Anyway, it was very surreal, but cool, to look up from what I'm working on to see that blast from the past! Keep up the good work.
This is the Lock Picking Lawyer, and today what I have here is a lock that was given to me that is supposedly called SCP-001. Just by looking at this lock I can already tell that there are some very inexcusable flaws in it's design. I will try to open it as fast as I can with a simple raking technique.
36:06 I appreciate Wendigoon casually displaying a Memetic Kill Hazard on screen during one of his proposal readings. He wasn't kidding how watching his videos takes away one year of your life at a time. In fact, watching it has a chance to take away your WHOLE life in the blink of an eye!
@@mammoneymelon a memetic hazard is a piece of information which, by virtue of knowing it, can harm you. This could be a sentence, an image, a sound bite, whatever, so long as it's information that causes mental harm
The Interesting thing about the gate guardian, is that they tried to use it to kill SCP-682, and after the guardian failed to kill him, 682 claimed the guardian was a fake, and that the garden he guarded was also fake, he claimed the real garden was west. How true this is, is unknown.
"The World's Gone Beautiful" is the most melancholic idea I've ever witnessed in my life. Everybody just stops and reminisces of the good things they've had for 24 hours with abundance of of beautiful scenery around them before they're inevitably wiped out by some lovecraftian abomination. It sounds like it could be a movie.
If you've ever seen "Love, Death & Robots," in Season 1 Episode 7, titled "Beyond The Aquila Rift," the short story shares many similarities to the concept of "The World's Gone Beautiful." I would strongly recommend watching it, as it makes you think about the concept long after the episode is over.
8:33 You kinda left out the most important aspect of the Spiral Path: The SCP Foundation doesn't "discover" SCPs, it makes them. They studied the Spiral Path and figured out how it's anomalous properties worked, and from that started making new anomalous objects, creatures and phenomena. Unfortunately, things spiraled (pun intended) out of control.
I believe the true reason for the multiple proposals is because the enormous importance of the 001 slot, they didn't want to give it to any one person and instead made it a gallery of top works.
The real reason was because back in the early days of the wiki when Admin was still around, some idiot wrote an entry for 001 that was so bad it supposedly made Admin delete it and restrict the 001 entry saying it was to be kept empty until a worthy entry could be found. And then Admin left and no one else could undo the restrictions on the 001 spot so everyone just made 001 Proposals to substitute. Until they moved to the current wikidot website and the current admins decided to keep 001 unofficial for traditions sake
After reading the story it sounded a lot more like the A.I. replaced the 05s or somehow deleted them. It ended with the Good Boy basically eradicating the entire foundation and all anomalies from existence. Idk where he got the "its sitting in a room saying kill kill kill over and over" thing from. It was told to neutralize, so it did. No more anomalies, no more foundation. It shut itself off in the end I think
You missed the best part about the "a good boy" proposal-- it's not SCP 001 because it's the worst, or best, or most dangerous, or first SCP. It's SCP 001 specifically because it's the _last_ SCP, having destroyed the previous SCP-001. It eliminated every other SCP, renumbering them all as it did so, to removed any gaps in the numbers. It whittled them down one by one, renumbered them and itself each time and so when it was the only SCP left, it had to renumber itself to 001. It also means there was previously a different 001, which it then later eliminated, leading to the possibility of other and perhaps even all of the orher proposals being true, as well as providing a direct reason for there being multiple-because people are weird and computers don't deal well with that weirdness and try to order it and organize it, and in this case the organizing ended up causing the designation SCP-001 to be reassigned.b
New O5 Member: "What's that?" Other O5 Member: "That's the computer that prints bad advice." Computer: "Sticking your hand in SCP-682's mouth, will effectively neutralize it." New O5: "So why do you keep it?" Other O5: "Well we think the stuff it says is hilarious." Computer: "KILL THE MOON KILL THE MOON KILL THE MOON KILL THE MOON."
There is actually an SCP like this hilariously, a program that takes a problem and writes up a ridiculous solution to it, and then notes how this theoretical solution is carried out and inevitably results in things going wrong, ranging from the solution just not working to the annihilation of the earth. It is then noted after a moral of the story which can just a funny observation, a joke or an insult.
Personally, I think the prototype is my favorite 001, and is the most realistic. I mean, the whole idea of SCP 001 is that it’s the first scp that’s been captured. And I doubt the foundation could obtain a god like entity first.
I feel like the number the scps get is the order of when they were discovered, so maybe they discovered 001 first but they got more experience in catching hundreds of other scps before capturing one of the godlike 001s
It's not about obtaining. It's about documenting. If it were about the former, obtaining a god wouldn't make sense, you are correct. But they're *documenting* the anomalies. It's why esoteric classes like Apollyon exist.
Awwhh. I really liked The Record when its gimmick was just automagially going to the top of any list it's added to. I thought that simple mechanic was a perfectly fun explanation for why it'd be SCP-001.
I like to think that the SCP 001 entry got confused with what she meant by "reality", and made her the god of reality TV. Having to watch all those shitty people with shitty acting for the rest of time.
@@kolgax2064 Isn't there already a 001 proposal that makes the scp universe not reality too? That would actually connect 2 different proposals and point to the fact that all the proposals are true BECAUSE it's not reality.
SCP 184- the Architect is what I truly believe the real 001 is. They just stuck it in an inconspicuous file for safekeeping and the other scp 001s are just decoys
@@Emil_LLscpfan look scp the truth, essentially scp 184 is constantly expanding our known universe with slight imperfections with every new addition, creating new anomalies as the universe becomes larger. It's my personal favorite explanation, especially since it isn't actually listed on scp 001 proposals
@@Emil_LLscpfan It's both 184 and 001, 184 is the original object that creates infinite rooms and 001 is the consequences of leaving it out in the open
You missed a bit in They Sky Above the Port. The static entity is a child dreaming. The universe is the child's dream. The other entity is his mom trying to wake him up. If he wakes up, the universe (dream) ends. So we have to give him stories (dreams) to keep him asleep or the world ends when he wakes up.
No, they don't, "The world's gone beautiful only works for an end of world scenario that promises a quick and painless death which When day breaks is the very opposite.
@@mmmrrreeeooowwwthecat8183 I mean, depending on how you view it, "The World's Gone Beautiful" can just mark an end of the world event that will end in everyone dying, which "When Day Breaks" would be classified as. So having that period of peace leading into an apocalypse where the literal sun is your worst enemy sounds like quite a cinematic end. As SCP goes, there is no one canon
Oh God, I love the UIU's proposal. I can only imagine: SCP Foundation: SCP 001, must be the inconceivable and impossible entity that exist beyond our understanding... UIU: YOU'RE the SCP 001! SCP Foundation: ...what?
When Day Breaks messed me up for a while after reading it. Just the idea that the sun becoming the most dangerous SCP ever known (thus dislodging the real SCP-001 from its spot, as it's the only SCP that matters now) is scary enough, but the way it "kills" you is far worse. Since sunlight and moonlight destroy you, anyone that wasn't in a room with no windows is immediately turned into one of those homunculus blob things. Even if you kill yourself, they can still absorb you like with the D-Class. They can even "talk" to you and try to convince you it's not as bad as it seems to try and lure you out willingly. It's basically a world without peaceful death, since the only way you can ever hope to die for good is to kill yourself in a room without sunlight with no way for them to enter, and hope they can't get in until your body decomposes completely, and even then it's not certain.
The damn When Day Breaks emergency broadcast videos are actual nightmare fuel. You're sitting around with your friends and family, then the show you're watching abruptly cuts off, and the foundation logo appears to warn you that you're most likely going to die while hearing it.
I'm really horrified of WDB. I know 3 people and one yorkie that I don't wanna see turned into evil molten flesh freaks. And I don't wanna be one either.
I made the mistake to watch that cursed Emergency Brodcast at night. Didn't go to bed that night because I knew I would have a nightmare. I think I was looking at the sun for about a week and a tiny adrenaline rush when outside in day.
The thing about "A good boy" is that whatever request given, no matter how ridiculous if done it actually somehow neutralized/countered the effect of an SCP
the thing is. that scp actually would require collaboration between writer of 3 different scp. and according to the proposal the AI become SCp 048 and anything designated as 048 get neutralised or somehow lost
@@bryanchandler3486 You can get a good idea from the tale "Ethics Committee Orientation", but briefly put they're a secret power in the Foundation. In order to judge what is "ethical" they need to know every piece of information that's encountered. They've read/seen everything that's been redacted, expunged, or otherwise closed off to the rest of the Foundation. They make judgements on things even before the O-5s do, and also advise them into decisions based on those judgements. They widely monitor all experiments, sites, and personnel and can (and have) amnesticize, imprison, or outright kill anyone they deem to be in violation of the ethics codes, regardless of their rank or standing. They're widely considered a joke and they want to keep it that way, because it distracts from how much influence and power they actually have.
I have a personal theory that the world we the writers/readers live in is a result of Good Boy successfully neutralizing every single anomaly, thus making the need for secrecy pointless. And then we have the wiki
You forgot SCP 001 "The Truth" It involves the SCP that expands space inside a room. It says that the universe itself is a room and that there are countless other milky ways, the further out you go, the worse they are, and that the SCP universe and all of the anomalies are due to this inperfection, and that the Earth that we are in (the IRL Earth) is the original
Thing is that "the truth" is not listed as SCP 001, which imo is the smartest thing they could have done. I actually stumbled randomly on it and it was actually amazing imo.
Hello, insider knowledge here from SCP guy and friend/podcast co-host of Tanhony (guy who wrote Black Moon and Dead Men). The Black Moon howls is just sort of a vague phrase that's been used in SCP for a while to allude at something bigger, and Tan writing the Black Moon 001 was sort of his take on what it actually could be. There's no actual set canon to what it technically is, just like there isn't a specific overarching canon to all of SCP
If you’re still researching on “Does the black moon howl?”, it’s a phrase that has been used in many articles over the years with different interpretations but usually functioning as a memetic trigger or password of sorts. Notably appears in SCP-256, 1739, 3031 and 4002
Also another thing to note is that there are multiple scps that make the black moon seem like more of a bad thing then a good thing, best case scenario it's just a phrase to recognize agents, 2 worst case scenarios that I could think of was scp 4002 where you have an old god that so happens to be the black moon that wants to turn every human anomalous again when it howls, hints the "Do you hear the Black Moon Howling" or scp 5008 where it is a phrase but it basically puts you under the mindset of a dead cult that basically forces you to want contain anomalies and erases anything notable of what you were.
i’ve always thought that there are multiple answers to “Does the black moon howl?” that trigger different things, like “Only when the foundations crumble” triggers the protocol for a lifted veil scenario
In Tahonys Proposal Does the Black Moon Howl, its a anomalous entity that has power beyond our understanding that wants to kill something or someone I forgot because its been so long
It’s always heartwarming to watch one of the earlier Wendigoon videos after a while and see his progress while he’s thanking everyone for 7k subs. Way to go dude, you deserve every single one of them
I like to imagine that in universe SCP 001 is something constantly argued about in universe by the staff. Because everyone wants to make it something really important but no one can agree what should get the number. However I also think it’s hilarious that it could also be an anomaly which one of its properties is to always be put on top of any list it’s on
I personally love Lily's proposal "The world's gone beautiful" It just seems so unrealistic and weird, but imagining that last moment of peace before everyone dies is something that makes me feel something that doesn't exist. Knowing there's nothing you can do about it. Thinking what you will do, what you will think, who you would talk to, what will you be your last words, it's something I love. I don't know lol
It’s kind of a microcosm of nihilism. The idea that nothing really matters has two interpretations - one of fear and sadness, and another of peace and freedom. On the one hand it is an incredibly lonely feeling, but on the other it rids you if all your burdens and worries
Well there is a real inexplicable phenomeon where a person with dementia gains complete lucidity before they die, it could be whatever force causes that also will cause the worlds gone beautiful

I don't believe that the Fish Hook is supposed to be a simulation, reality, or "lesson". It's entirely a meta piece that's written from the perspective of someone dying to a memetic kill agent when searching into 001. The proposal is less about 001 itself and more about the mystery behind. In fact I think there's only one ending within Fish Hook where you actually survive. Great video nonetheless.
That's true, in the discussion on the Proposal, the writer did say that it is the experience of seeing the Berryman langford memetic kill agent. And it is just the person who viewed it seeing their life die in slow motion
Or!! The World’s Gone Beautiful is a warning FOR When Day Breaks- and it would make sense because everyone would be oUTSIDE Y’KNOW ENJOYING THE BEAUTY AND PEACE OF THE WORLD SO LIKE EVERYONE WOULD BE DEAD
Theory of Scp Creation Process 1) a writer in our world creates a new database entry 2) the sheaf of papers copies out that entry 3) The factory Creates the SCP according to the sheaf of papers entry, utilizing life energy from the D-Class Personnel terminated at the end of the previous month.
0:48 its always so heartwarming seeing creators say things like this and then looking at their current sub count and just being amazed at how far theyve gone. great job wendigoon, your amazing
The fact this was made when he had 7k subs and now he has over 1M is crazy. I've been here since the scp iceberg and its just incredible how far he's come. Im so glad i found his channel
Isn't the prototype supposed to be one of the first things the foundation contained like before the creation of the modern foundation? I'm pretty sure that's why the article is formatted so strangely. And the name "Prototype" is in relation to the containment protocols and the formatting of the articles instead of the first human.
yeah, it's "the prototype" because it's a prototype document. I have no idea where he got the that other stuff from. Or why he said the the dr. keter = keter was a theory even though its just an aspect of the articles story.
1:00 - The man 7k subs @ 31.01.2021? its currently 22.06.2022 and hes at 1.54 million. DAMN! thats what i call growth! Love the content, keep it up man. Also love the beard and hair. i'm actually a bit jealous.
You know how there's a safe, euclid, keter, thaumiel and apollyon class of scp I like to believe that SCP 001 is a special class designated for the collective scp that is beyond apollyon. Meaning there is no singular 001, but multiple of it.
Weirdly enough, a lot of the SCP-001 proposals do have standard object classes. The Sheaf of Papers is a Keter while the World Has Gone Beautiful is unclassified because classifying something a day before you die is pointless.
@@hedgehatchet3578 incorrect. The world has gone beautiful would officially be given an Apollyon classification. It is an unstoppable apocalyptic event instead of containment procedures it would be assigned a doomsday clock with possible methods of delaying the inevitable or preventing extinction of all life
for some reason, the phrase "does the black moon howl" always elicits a response from scps, or people under the influence of scps. if you ask someone "does the black moon howl?" and they respond with something like "when the foundation crumbles" or "only when the red sun rises" then you know they're affected by something or not entirely human
the question "does the black moon howl?" is something that has been in the wiki for a very long time, it was fiirst used in SCP 256, and is normally used as a way to check if someone has been afected by a cognitohazard (this can be seen in action in SCP 3773). it ofcourse has melted and changed through the years being used by many authors for many different things (such as telling if someones is lying as seen in SCP 5236, or as something linked to a very powerful being, this being the black moon). However it is important to remeber that there is no canon and the black moon and "does the black moon howl?" can be whatever one wants. P.D: I know this is probably not going to be read by anyone, but I still had to write it.
i’ve always thought that all personnel receive a rank-based memetic trigger that causes a specific response to that question to verify their rank, and it cannot be duplicated by an impostor because it is memetically encoded
My favorite scp 001 proposals are the ones that are tame but unordinary. Someone mentioned something like a tv that turns off at the good parts of a show or movie. I think that's a good candidate as there's enough interests there to look more into the tv without there being a fear that'd dissuade people from looking into it.
It all depends if you feel like they numbered by thier danger or by them being found by the foundation. I'd tend to agree, since everything else is numbered by appearence as well...
The sheaf of papers seems like the best candidate for scp001 since many of the others don't need to be "patient 0" and would be the same if they were the 100th. The paper stack is meta by the pages for new SCPs written being what happens in the fictional universe and ties the real life website to the fictional universe and represents the SCP foundation website itself and turns the writings into something in lore and relates it to literally every SCP by aiding the employees in finding new ones.
Spiral Path also has a very obvious reason for being number 001, one which this video didn't really explain. That being that it was the only naturally occurring anomaly found, and that the Foundation actually made all the others, either intentionally or by accident, based on what they learned from studying the Path.
I completely agree that the Sheaf of Papers is the best SCP-001 proposal. Nothing else even comes close IMO. Ancient society this, eldritch god that, everything else tries so hard to be epic and important and weirdly religious. Sheaf of Papers is HUMBLE. It's so simple it's almost funny, it pays respect to the project's IRL origin as collaborative fiction, and it also has a perfect justification for being Number 001. It's a flawless proposal.
My theory: They are all real, but none of them are 001, they are all just really important/powerful so the 05 council classified them as 001 to make them seem legit.
Well they all can’t be real because the world is not ending may be real and different universes but that’s a different universes you can tell this from multiple starts of the foundation it would make no sense for that when he starts of the foundation just to be canceled out by
They also sent SCP-682 at the gate guardian, the implication being that it was the original serpent from the garden. There was a massive battle, with 682 constantly taunting it with references to Eden.
Looking back on this video and seeing you be so thankful for your success then makes me really happy you've been just skyrocketing since. We love you Wendigoon
This guy is genuinely becoming one of my favourite youtubers cause holy fuck, even a long video doesn’t seem that long because of how interesting they are. Keep it up, man
Going back and watching a lot of your older stuff, there is some seriously underrated videos here! Keep up the good work fam, I especially like your creepypasta content like stairs in the woods.
I can understand that researching so many entries for this video was probably difficult, but there are a couple important details on many of these here that are either missing or wrong. One that really caught my attention was the good boy entry. The original entry was less about the computer being some insane thing that kept telling the foundation to kill people (and cats), but more so an anomalous AI that would suggest seemingly nonsensical procedures to either help better contain SCP's, with surprising effectiveness when properly implemented, or would be able to accurately predict catastrophic events and how to deal with them. While they eventually try to ignore it for fear of what it might actually be or be doing, it manages to infiltrate the council and somehow replace members of it in order to be able to continue doing its work, and eventually it succeeds in eliminating all anomalies regardless of the wishes of its creators. It also REALLY didn't like cats.
Exactly, I was wondering if anyone else was noticing the number of flaws with this video, probably due to the lack of time to elaborate but some details are just wrong. In fact it was so wrong I couldnt resist doing what I do with SCP videos that I watch and typed out a 30 minute essay on what Project Palisade actually was mostly because that was the part of the video I was on with an additional part listing out the mistakes I could remember in the video up to that point. With every comment I type out about SCPs, it gets longer and longer
I have noticed issues with details on other videos as well. I think he needs to improve his note taking skills as it feels like he is doing some of these videos just out of memory.
Swann's Proposal could have been explained better - its whole thing is that we, the SCP writers/community, are SCP-001, and they know that they're actually fictional characters and that we're their gods. They have containment procedures for us (mainly memetic kill agents), but overall, they're not sure if killing us will end their universe, so they're being really careful about it.
I think "The World's Gone Beautiful" is my favorite. It exists to remind that we will eventually parish and nothing is forever, so we must cherish what we have. (also the picture just looked nice :p)
The Sky Above the Port is another one of those 001 entries that sounds like a meta entry.. The world is the site, the site contributors are the cults/secret societies/etc, the static ball is a web browser, and the black figure is everyone else. The contributors write SCP entries, to entertain all of us, so that we keep visiting the site. If nobody visits the site, then it eventually goes away (destruction of the world). It's a VERY clever story.
Side note: during editing I remembered I heard “faeries” mentioned somewhere and realized they are the creatures from SCP-4000 aka “Taboo”. Just a link I didn’t remember until now. Also ty all you’re the best lol
That shirt is awesome man!
"The prototype" is "the prototype" because it's a prototype document.
It's using whats implied to be an older format of SCP document.
Also, why do you refer to things that are just aspects to the story as theories?
Like Dr. Keter = Keter classification, or the proposals in general?
Also, as someone else said. Ethical felines refers to the ethics committee.
Its really easy to figure if you do one of two things.
1. remember it's a good boy, aka a dog. and dogs hate cats, and the good boy hates the ethics committee.
2. replace feline with another word that relates with cats, is something you might call a cowered, and begins with a P.
As for the Black Moon, there's just a lot of Arc Words across the SCP wikidot like "We die in the dark so you can live in the light." and "Can't fit round pegs in square holes."

Wendigoon glossed over one of the coolest part about The Factory Proposal. It was not only the supposed origins of the foundation. It was also the supposed origins of EVERY other GOI in the canon. From Marshall, Carter, & Dark to The Church of The Broken God. They were all once part of the group who initially infiltrated the factory, that separated into different groups with different ideologies.
Neat
Damn, that is probably one of the moment of scp times
Imagine if it's because each group infiltrated from different locations and saw different things. GOI saw horrors beyond comprehension tearing people appart, hence their kill on site policy. The Church of the Broken God saw a mind altering machine which spoke to them of the broken God and it's power, hence their religious zelotism. I have no idea what MC&D does though. The Administrator may have seen multiple SCP's, most benign, some trying to help and others killing all those around them, hence the 'Secure, Contain and Protect' policy.
@@cookiecraze1310 they didn't see different things, no. They interpreted the things they saw differently is what happened.

@@VladimirChibuckovthere is a critical problem with SCP-001 "The lock". It can be opened by being smacked with another SCP-001 "The lock".
SCP foundation: where did you get another lock??
Here's a few neat facts for you about some of these that people tend to forget:
1. "The Prototype" is called that because the article itself is a prototype, written during the Foundation's earliest days. It doesn't use the normal format of "how to contain it is more important than what it actually is, and therefore must come first". It instead gives a designation number, a warning of aggressive behavior, a description, and THEN details of its containment, before finishing with a report of its capture and an addendum which mentions the possible need for censorship in further articles.
2. "The Spiral Path" implies that the Administrator used it to discover how anomalies work, and therefore implies that Foundation does not DISCOVER anomalies, it CREATES them. Or rather, it did, until they started appearing on their own.
3. "God's Blind Spot" is important not just because people there cannot die, but because supposedly God literally cannot see into it, and therefore any sins committed while on its premises can never be judged. Perfect for a group of people who commit horrible atrocities on a daily basis.
4. The computer in "A Good Boy" was given the designator "Type AK9 Computational Engine". In other words, it thinks it's a dog. This is why it's obsessed with the idea of "good boys". And also why it hates cats.
5. In "The Sky Above the Port", the shadow represents the audience, and therefore you, the viewer. Without new stories, the Foundation's world would cease to exist. Because of course it would, it's a writing project.
This clarifies a lot, thanks!

"The World's Gone Beautiful" is the most melancholic idea I've ever witnessed in my life. Everybody just stops and reminisces of the good things they've had for 24 hours with abundance of of beautiful scenery around them before they're inevitably wiped out by some lovecraftian abomination. It sounds like it could be a movie.
Reminds me of a movie called Melancholia
I haven't watched it all yet but there's a Willem Dafoe movie called "4:44 Last Day on Earth", seems similar in concept!
Similar to the Infinite Tsukuyomi
If you've ever seen "Love, Death & Robots," in Season 1 Episode 7, titled "Beyond The Aquila Rift," the short story shares many similarities to the concept of "The World's Gone Beautiful." I would strongly recommend watching it, as it makes you think about the concept long after the episode is over.
One version I’ve heard is that everything was, and after the 24 hours just wasn’t, no monsters, no gods, just one moment the world was, then it wasn’t
8:33 You kinda left out the most important aspect of the Spiral Path: The SCP Foundation doesn't "discover" SCPs, it makes them. They studied the Spiral Path and figured out how it's anomalous properties worked, and from that started making new anomalous objects, creatures and phenomena. Unfortunately, things spiraled (pun intended) out of control.
Kinda ticked me off. The proposal is way more interesting than he made it seem.
'Sheaf of Paper' sounds like the best candidate for a canonical SCP-001. 'A Good Boy' is my favourite one; sounds hilarious.
I believe the true reason for the multiple proposals is because the enormous importance of the 001 slot, they didn't want to give it to any one person and instead made it a gallery of top works.
The real reason was because back in the early days of the wiki when Admin was still around, some idiot wrote an entry for 001 that was so bad it supposedly made Admin delete it and restrict the 001 entry saying it was to be kept empty until a worthy entry could be found. And then Admin left and no one else could undo the restrictions on the 001 spot so everyone just made 001 Proposals to substitute. Until they moved to the current wikidot website and the current admins decided to keep 001 unofficial for traditions sake

It was told to neutralize, so it did. No more anomalies, no more foundation. It shut itself off in the end I think
Day Breaks was always one of the scariest ones to me. It's not even clear _why_ that's a -001 proposal, which makes it somehow more sinister.

It's because in that story, the Sun is the only SCP that matters, hence it being SCP-001.
You missed the best part about the "a good boy" proposal-- it's not SCP 001 because it's the worst, or best, or most dangerous, or first SCP. It's SCP 001 specifically because it's the _last_ SCP, having destroyed the previous SCP-001. It eliminated every other SCP, renumbering them all as it did so, to removed any gaps in the numbers. It whittled them down one by one, renumbered them and itself each time and so when it was the only SCP left, it had to renumber itself to 001.
It also means there was previously a different 001, which it then later eliminated, leading to the possibility of other and perhaps even all of the orher proposals being true, as well as providing a direct reason for there being multiple-because people are weird and computers don't deal well with that weirdness and try to order it and organize it, and in this case the organizing ended up causing the designation SCP-001 to be reassigned.b

There is actually an SCP like this hilariously, a program that takes a problem and writes up a ridiculous solution to it, and then notes how this theoretical solution is carried out and inevitably results in things going wrong, ranging from the solution just not working to the annihilation of the earth. It is then noted after a moral of the story which can just a funny observation, a joke or an insult.
Personally, I think the prototype is my favorite 001, and is the most realistic. I mean, the whole idea of SCP 001 is that it’s the first scp that’s been captured. And I doubt the foundation could obtain a god like entity first.
Your probably right, but I still like to think it’s the sheet of papers because it’s the most interesting 😂
@@lmichaels7821 Yeah that one would make the most sense too. It’s a brilliant idea honestly
I feel like the number the scps get is the order of when they were discovered, so maybe they discovered 001 first but they got more experience in catching hundreds of other scps before capturing one of the godlike 001s
Yep I believe all of these are it but are like pieces of the true 001
It's not about obtaining. It's about documenting. If it were about the former, obtaining a god wouldn't make sense, you are correct. But they're *documenting* the anomalies. It's why esoteric classes like Apollyon exist.

My favorite part about the Good Boy proposal is that everything it suggests inexplicably works
When Day Breaks messed me up for a while after reading it. Just the idea that the sun becoming the most dangerous SCP ever known (thus dislodging the real SCP-001 from its spot, as it's the only SCP that matters now) is scary enough, but the way it "kills" you is far worse. Since sunlight and moonlight destroy you, anyone that wasn't in a room with no windows is immediately turned into one of those homunculus blob things. Even if you kill yourself, they can still absorb you like with the D-Class. They can even "talk" to you and try to convince you it's not as bad as it seems to try and lure you out willingly. It's basically a world without peaceful death, since the only way you can ever hope to die for good is to kill yourself in a room without sunlight with no way for them to enter, and hope they can't get in until your body decomposes completely, and even then it's not certain.
The damn When Day Breaks emergency broadcast videos are actual nightmare fuel. You're sitting around with your friends and family, then the show you're watching abruptly cuts off, and the foundation logo appears to warn you that you're most likely going to die while hearing it.

The thing about "A good boy" is that whatever request given, no matter how ridiculous if done it actually somehow neutralized/countered the effect of an SCP

He could be an SCP
Click out of 1, 2s a bit if a struggle. Click out of 3.
he wouldn't be allowed to open it without... the legal eagle
The lock picking lawyer IS SCP-001
Everywhere I go. I see his name.
I like the idea of the “bored god” scp having at one point probably seen family guy or a David Attenborough documentary
The spiral path makes the most sense to me, it’s just a regular scp which made the founder look more into anomalies.
I just love how "A Good Boy" starts off as a Roko's Basilisk story, but takes such a funny turn.
I have a personal theory that the world we the writers/readers live in is a result of Good Boy successfully neutralizing every single anomaly, thus making the need for secrecy pointless. And then we have the wiki
DO NOT RESEARCH ROKO`S BASILISK
You forgot SCP 001 "The Truth"
It involves the SCP that expands space inside a room. It says that the universe itself is a room and that there are countless other milky ways, the further out you go, the worse they are, and that the SCP universe and all of the anomalies are due to this inperfection, and that the Earth that we are in (the IRL Earth) is the original
Also I don't think "The broken god" is on here
@@prismaticguy it’s part of ouroboros
@@ThePhrog714 yeah wheres ouroboros cycle
“How do you hide the identity of SCP-001?”
“Don’t call it 001.”
Thing is that "the truth" is not listed as SCP 001, which imo is the smartest thing they could have done. I actually stumbled randomly on it and it was actually amazing imo.
Hello, insider knowledge here from SCP guy and friend/podcast co-host of Tanhony (guy who wrote Black Moon and Dead Men). The Black Moon howls is just sort of a vague phrase that's been used in SCP for a while to allude at something bigger, and Tan writing the Black Moon 001 was sort of his take on what it actually could be. There's no actual set canon to what it technically is, just like there isn't a specific overarching canon to all of SCP

@@Zahqariah he gained half a mil subs in 2 weeks holy shit
If you’re still researching on “Does the black moon howl?”, it’s a phrase that has been used in many articles over the years with different interpretations but usually functioning as a memetic trigger or password of sorts. Notably appears in SCP-256, 1739, 3031 and 4002
Also another thing to note is that there are multiple scps that make the black moon seem like more of a bad thing then a good thing, best case scenario it's just a phrase to recognize agents, 2 worst case scenarios that I could think of was scp 4002 where you have an old god that so happens to be the black moon that wants to turn every human anomalous again when it howls, hints the "Do you hear the Black Moon Howling" or scp 5008 where it is a phrase but it basically puts you under the mindset of a dead cult that basically forces you to want contain anomalies and erases anything notable of what you were.
i’ve always thought that there are multiple answers to “Does the black moon howl?” that trigger different things, like “Only when the foundations crumble” triggers the protocol for a lifted veil scenario
In Tahonys Proposal Does the Black Moon Howl, its a anomalous entity that has power beyond our understanding that wants to kill something or someone I forgot because its been so long
I believe that it is nothing, simply nothing. The proposals were to convince early sponsors that they had contained an anomaly
lmao that's brilliant
Or we are 001 the whole time
I think that it is all of them from multiple reality restructuring events aka the first scp contained from each time the scp foundation was refounded
@@givemeanameiwillhate9525 That would genuinely be awesome. SCP 001 is... humanity.
@@SodaDone now yeah this is the shit im into
It’s always heartwarming to watch one of the earlier Wendigoon videos after a while and see his progress while he’s thanking everyone for 7k subs. Way to go dude, you deserve every single one of them
I like to imagine that in universe SCP 001 is something constantly argued about in universe by the staff. Because everyone wants to make it something really important but no one can agree what should get the number. However I also think it’s hilarious that it could also be an anomaly which one of its properties is to always be put on top of any list it’s on
I personally love Lily's proposal
"The world's gone beautiful"
It just seems so unrealistic and weird, but imagining that last moment of peace before everyone dies is something that makes me feel something that doesn't exist.
Knowing there's nothing you can do about it.
Thinking what you will do, what you will think, who you would talk to, what will you be your last words, it's something I love.
I don't know lol
at least it isnt a violent death unlike some other proposals lol
I feel like the movie melancholia captures this vibe kinda.
It’s kind of a microcosm of nihilism. The idea that nothing really matters has two interpretations - one of fear and sadness, and another of peace and freedom. On the one hand it is an incredibly lonely feeling, but on the other it rids you if all your burdens and worries
Well there is a real inexplicable phenomeon where a person with dementia gains complete lucidity before they die, it could be whatever force causes that also will cause the worlds gone beautiful
your suicide note's gonna be perfect lmao
When day breaks is some of the coolest and most disturbing fiction I've ever read, it's my favorite 001 proposal.
It is the worst world ending scenario I have ever seen
This what the gate angle try to warning oss when he say “ be prepared “
@@AxeltheKing1000 Ah yes, "gate angle"
Just the idea that the SUN is an SCP and since it's the sun if it happened there is literally nothing we could do about it

That much proposals?
Of course it was Shakespeare
I don't believe that the Fish Hook is supposed to be a simulation, reality, or "lesson". It's entirely a meta piece that's written from the perspective of someone dying to a memetic kill agent when searching into 001. The proposal is less about 001 itself and more about the mystery behind. In fact I think there's only one ending within Fish Hook where you actually survive. Great video nonetheless.
shiiiit you're right
That's true, in the discussion on the Proposal, the writer did say that it is the experience of seeing the Berryman langford memetic kill agent. And it is just the person who viewed it seeing their life die in slow motion
It is a literal "fish hook." And if you read it, you got hooked. Very meta tbh
its a memetic warning that punishes those who are too curious for their own good and gives them a chance to turn back
I bet "The World's Gone Beautiful" is the aftermath effects of "When Day Breaks"
Wouldnt it be leading up?
24 hours before activation isnt the same as 8 minutes after activation we playdough
Btw Keter Duty has made the connection between these two pretty much canon to WDB
Not really, in the worlds gone beautiful it’s just that there will be a time of peace before the Armageddon
Or!! The World’s Gone Beautiful is a warning FOR When Day Breaks-

Theory of Scp Creation Process
1) a writer in our world creates a new database entry
2) the sheaf of papers copies out that entry
3) The factory Creates the SCP according to the sheaf of papers entry, utilizing life energy from the D-Class Personnel terminated at the end of the previous month.
0:48
its always so heartwarming seeing creators say
things like this and then looking at their current
sub count and just being amazed at how far theyve
gone. great job wendigoon, your amazing
The fact this was made when he had 7k subs and now he has over 1M is crazy. I've been here since the scp iceberg and its just incredible how far he's come. Im so glad i found his channel
Whoa. 1 million in 1 year? This could be the fastest grown legit channel, at least it is for all I know. And he certainly deserves it.
He’s at 7 mil now and it was insane seeing how far he’s come and how little he’s changed
Wow has it really been a year? I still remember being so excited when he first released this video lol
1.85m.
2 mil
Isn't the prototype supposed to be one of the first things the foundation contained like before the creation of the modern foundation? I'm pretty sure that's why the article is formatted so strangely. And the name "Prototype" is in relation to the containment protocols and the formatting of the articles instead of the first human.
yeah, it's "the prototype" because it's a prototype document.
I have no idea where he got the that other stuff from.
Or why he said the the dr. keter = keter was a theory even though its just an aspect of the articles story.
Yeah, thought the same thing while watching
The Black Moon sounds like a perfect movie concept.
From 7,000 to 3.2 million subs in just about 3 years is amazing. You should be proud of yourself dude!

I can imagine someone tried to make their own 001 entry for months just to realize that it's basically already been done.
What if that is SCP 001, an anomalous idea to write an SCP 001 proposal, but it anomalously appears in the database.
I feel called out.
I had an idea for a 001 proposal that was the "God" of the foundation and ruled over it but then I realized that was just The Administrator so yeah
I literally came up with the toymaker only to find out it's already 001.
What a shame.
I Wanted to make one that could become more powerful the more people knew about it... Then I read about the Scarlet King.
I think the sheaf of papers is the best proposal, simply because of the fourth wall breaking and how simple yet complicated it is
1:00 - The man 7k subs @ 31.01.2021?
its currently 22.06.2022 and hes at 1.54 million.

thats what i call growth!
Love the content, keep it up man.
Also love the beard and hair. i'm actually a bit jealous.
You know how there's a safe, euclid, keter, thaumiel and apollyon class of scp
I like to believe that SCP 001 is a special class designated for the collective scp that is beyond apollyon. Meaning there is no singular 001, but multiple of it.
Weirdly enough, a lot of the SCP-001 proposals do have standard object classes. The Sheaf of Papers is a Keter while the World Has Gone Beautiful is unclassified because classifying something a day before you die is pointless.
nice pfp
@@hedgehatchet3578 incorrect. The world has gone beautiful would officially be given an Apollyon classification.

Gotta say. The "normalcy" entry is actually really good as an entry and it would make sense to have that term be the first one
Dr. Wondertainment is literally the definition of "we do a little trolling"
for some reason, the phrase "does the black moon howl" always elicits a response from scps, or people under the influence of scps. if you ask someone "does the black moon howl?" and they respond with something like "when the foundation crumbles" or "only when the red sun rises" then you know they're affected by something or not entirely human
Red sun

@@saiv46 dunno how it ends, but i figured i'd make it rhyme anyway.
@@saiv46 The timid buds hide away, those in full bloom seek to welcome them into the bountiful day.
the question "does the black moon howl?" is something that has been in the wiki for a very long time, it was fiirst used in SCP 256, and is normally used as a way to check if someone has been afected by a cognitohazard (this can be seen in action in SCP 3773).
it ofcourse has melted and changed through the years being used by many authors for many different things (such as telling if someones is lying as seen in SCP 5236, or as something linked to a very powerful being, this being the black moon).
However it is important to remeber that there is no canon and the black moon and "does the black moon howl?" can be whatever one wants.
P.D: I know this is probably not going to be read by anyone, but I still had to write it.
If the saying "Does the black moon howl?" mean whatever you want, it's the same isea that SCP-001 is whatever you see as canon.

I wonder if it is somehow connected to The Three Moons Initiative.
We watched them walk waist-deep through broken glass and rusted gears.
i’ve always thought that all personnel receive a rank-based memetic trigger that causes a specific response to that question to verify their rank, and it cannot be duplicated by an impostor because it is memetically encoded
THE SONG NAME For anyone wondering is 19th floor by indigo waves or bobby Richard's
My favorite scp 001 proposals are the ones that are tame but unordinary. Someone mentioned something like a tv that turns off at the good parts of a show or movie. I think that's a good candidate as there's enough interests there to look more into the tv without there being a fear that'd dissuade people from looking into it.
It all depends if you feel like they numbered by thier danger or by them being found by the foundation.
I'd tend to agree, since everything else is numbered by appearence as well...
The sheaf of papers seems like the best candidate for scp001 since many of the others don't need to be "patient 0" and would be the same if they were the 100th. The paper stack is meta by the pages for new SCPs written being what happens in the fictional universe and ties the real life website to the fictional universe and represents the SCP foundation website itself and turns the writings into something in lore and relates it to literally every SCP by aiding the employees in finding new ones.
Good Boy and Story of your life are pretty funny. Fish hook is also very meta.
@@indiana47 i didn't understand fish hook at all
i mean what is even significant about the first scp it could literally be any
Spiral Path also has a very obvious reason for being number 001, one which this video didn't really explain. That being that it was the only naturally occurring anomaly found, and that the Foundation actually made all the others, either intentionally or by accident, based on what they learned from studying the Path.
I completely agree that the Sheaf of Papers is the best SCP-001 proposal. Nothing else even comes close IMO. Ancient society this, eldritch god that, everything else tries so hard to be epic and important and weirdly religious. Sheaf of Papers is HUMBLE. It's so simple it's almost funny, it pays respect to the project's IRL origin as collaborative fiction, and it also has a perfect justification for being Number 001. It's a flawless proposal.
My theory: They are all real, but none of them are 001, they are all just really important/powerful so the 05 council classified them as 001 to make them seem legit.
Well they all can’t be real because the world is not ending may be real and different universes but that’s a different universes you can tell this from multiple starts of the foundation it would make no sense for that when he starts of the foundation just to be canceled out by
the background song is so fire I couldn’t focus on anything

I always thought 001 was like a disproportionately heavy spoon that you couldn't pick up.
Or it was a lie to trick early sponsors they had contained an anomaly
Yes
S p o o n
reminds me of the joke SCP that's literally just a fork, but everyone who sees it thinks it's incredibly important
It’s a spoon that is peculiarly large, it is contained by a former vine star and induces giant amounts of gluttony
I can understand that researching so many entries for this video was probably difficult, but there are a couple important details on many of these here that are either missing or wrong. One that really caught my attention was the good boy entry. The original entry was less about the computer being some insane thing that kept telling the foundation to kill people (and cats), but more so an anomalous AI that would suggest seemingly nonsensical procedures to either help better contain SCP's, with surprising effectiveness when properly implemented, or would be able to accurately predict catastrophic events and how to deal with them. While they eventually try to ignore it for fear of what it might actually be or be doing, it manages to infiltrate the council and somehow replace members of it in order to be able to continue doing its work, and eventually it succeeds in eliminating all anomalies regardless of the wishes of its creators.
It also REALLY didn't like cats.
This confirms that all cats are anomalies
Exactly, I was wondering if anyone else was noticing the number of flaws with this video, probably due to the lack of time to elaborate but some details are just wrong. In fact it was so wrong I couldnt resist doing what I do with SCP videos that I watch and typed out a 30 minute essay on what Project Palisade actually was mostly because that was the part of the video I was on with an additional part listing out the mistakes I could remember in the video up to that point. With every comment I type out about SCPs, it gets longer and longer
I have noticed issues with details on other videos as well. I think he needs to improve his note taking skills as it feels like he is doing some of these videos just out of memory.
I thought the cats represent the ethics committee
Swann's Proposal could have been explained better - its whole thing is that we, the SCP writers/community, are SCP-001, and they know that they're actually fictional characters and that we're their gods. They have containment procedures for us (mainly memetic kill agents), but overall, they're not sure if killing us will end their universe, so they're being really careful about it.
"You are the anomaly"
Proceeds to show memetic kill image
I think "The World's Gone Beautiful" is my favorite. It exists to remind that we will eventually parish and nothing is forever, so we must cherish what we have. (also the picture just looked nice :p)
I kinda love the idea that SCP-001 is just a thing that has to always be #1 when listed
It really does feel like the eternal schoolyard argument of “infinity plus one” kind of thing
Funny, there's an SCP exaxtly like that and it isn't on the SCP-001 page (SCP-4380).
This was Wendigoon back when 100,000 views was an amazing amount for him. Seeing him talk about that on a 2 million view video is, something
The Sky Above the Port is another one of those 001 entries that sounds like a meta entry.. The world is the site, the site contributors are the cults/secret societies/etc, the static ball is a web browser, and the black figure is everyone else. The contributors write SCP entries, to entertain all of us, so that we keep visiting the site. If nobody visits the site, then it eventually goes away (destruction of the world).
It's a VERY clever story.
