Let me get this straight- they found a sentient, humanoidesque SCP, made of ordinary water, who never hurt anyone And they: Drained her water (which would probably ensure their death) Froze them and broke a fragment of their body without their permission Nearly boiled them alive Threatened them with torture and pain And they were surprised it has feelings and was aggressive? What the fuck was the research team's problem? I don't blame her for pulling the two researchers into the acid water and making an escape when they essentially forced it through a snuff film
The foundation labels class over how easy the anomaly is to contain, Safe meaning it's easy to contain and has little to no special measures (e.g. SPC-999), Euclid meaning it may leave containment unauthorised and breach every now and then and usually has roughly about 5 to 12 special containment measures (e.g. SPC-) Neutralised means all anomalies of the group are dead (e.g. SPC-001, the Black Moon, as it's now been killed), 0814 is for anomalies that don't technically exist (e.g. SPC-000) and Keter for those that breach containment with ease and can have up to 100 different containment measuresm (e.g. some of the many SPC-001)

“Look at this completely harmless anomaly. Let’s do questionable stuff to it and see what happens.” *anomaly becomes aggressive* “Hmm, I wonder what happened.”

Know your history. That motto is as new as the Ethics committee actually existing as anything other than a joke. The first couple of thousand SCPs were created in a world where there was no EC and the D-Class got yeeted at the end of every month because they were death row inmates to begin with.
I find this one far more disturbing than the others, and not because of 054. It was calm, docile, and even friendly until it was basically tortured just to satisfy the morbid curiosity of mankind
@@Zel-Veraan mhm. It's disturbingly sad because this isn't how people expect the modern SCP Foundation to conduct themselves. This was before the ethics committee was established most likely
I feel like 054 shows how our curiosity can sometimes forget how to show mercy upon another species when interacting with it and then we get confused why It became more hostile or died out
There's so many humane tests they could have done, like introducing kool-aid to the nymph, but no, dry, freeze, burn, shock, harm the poor girl. Glad they changed the researchers in charge of her.
you know, the value of the number really tells you a lot about when this SCP was found. you can’t figure it out? ok, here’s a hint: BEFORE THE ETHICS COMMITTEE WAS FOUNDED YOU FUCKING DIMWIT
Emphasis on mankind. All she wanted to do was make friends with the one girl she met and now I wouldn't blame her if she hated males' guts for treating her body with disrespect
1. apparently the SCP foundation is the absolute best representative of humans. 2. ETHICS COMMITTEE DIDN’T EXIST YET KNOW YOUR FUCKING HISTORY 3. this was an oddball case of abuse of power and total neglect of morality by researchers. 4. the researchers were demoted and then later terminated.
SCP Foundation: * performs a series of increasingly cruel experiments on a safe SCP * Safe SCP: * "suddenly and without any apparent reason" becomes hostile and attempts to escape * Now, why does this sound familiar to me...
Scp: *takes away all water needed to be comfortable/survive. Cute water nymph: hey! Hey cute research member! You ever get sucked off by a nymph? Gimme some water and I’ll show you a good time!
I find it funny how huge the contrast is between older SCP’s like this and new ones. The older ones is before anyone actually knew about the whole cold, not cruel thing, so they would just write really awful experiments for fun
This is just the end result of when a story is told via a vast array of people. Sometimes we see SCP Foundation refusing to push torture or learning from mistakes. And sometimes we get stories like this where they do stuff just to see if they can. It all depends on the writer, sadly.
Wished the info of this SCP get retcon! I read somewhere this was one of the earliest SCP creation as in not quite get the whole Secure Control and Protect aspect of the organization! I mean the way they treated her sounds more like the works of the GoG!
Senior researcher: Alright, here's the list of tests that we'll be running. Junior researcher: Hmm, we have to send this the ethics committee first, right? Senior researcher: Junior researcher: Senior researcher: AHAHAHAHAHA Junior researcher: AHAHAHAHAHA
The SCP foundation: “We are cold not cruel”. Also the SCP foundation: *Tortures innocent anomalies and sacrifices D Class to dangerous SCPs* Me: “Hmm not cruel aye 🤔”
the whole torturing innocent anomalies is absolutely cruel, but the sacrifices of D Class personnel, (and in some cases artificially created human infants) can be put into perspective by the question of "Would you be willing to sacrifice one newborn (who you know was made by the foundation, has no family to raise it, and would be killed off in a different ritual anyway) as well as one adult (who will almost invariably be killed by an scp eventually) monthly to an eldritch horror that will end all life and remake reality into its own image if the procedure fails?
@@grimunknown3503 Yeah you have a point. I’m not saying the Foundation is ‘good’ nor I’m saying they are ‘bad’ I just thought it was kinda funny to see the foundation sacrificing d class for research and saying they are not cruel. In the scp universe GOC , SCPf, Serpents hand , MCF, COB these Gois wants to make the world a better place but they all have their flaws they all have blood in their hands except for MCF (because it’s a charity goi and doesn’t get involved in conflict) and that’s what I like about the SCP universe you can support whom ever you want cuz every goi has some positive as well as a negative trait.
@@Ben10111 I see your point, and I think I went a little overboard in pointing out that while the foundation may be cruel at times, it is almost always necessary to prevent much worse fates from occurring.
well the D classes were death row inmates so they were gonna die anyways. and the older scps were mostly before the ethics committee. a good thing was that the scientist was demoted
The more videos that come out, the more I start to sympathize with the Serpent's Hand and other organizations other than the Foundation. I get that they need to be, "Cold, not cruel," but half of the time I can't tell the difference and the treatment of this SCP is not helping that case in the slightest.
Something interesting I noticed about this SCP: a couple of RUclipsrs who talked about this story, they all had different stories of discovery. (in other words, different origins)
This feels like one I'd want to write a story about. One where a male researcher is able to start to restore her trust, slowly and carefully. Showing that the only truly bad people were the ones who tortured her in the first place. Treating her with respect, but also trying to engage her in the ability to actually communicate. She can't speak or write... or at least audibly. Sign language exists, and she seems more than capable of hearing in order to understand the instructions given to her. It shouldn't be difficult to teach her sign language at all, and allow her to actually vocalize her own thoughts. I feel like the best solution would be treating her much the same way that SCP-5031 was treated - fairly, with intent to learn and coexist rather than seeing her as nothing more than an experiment to be toyed with and dissected. Learning what she likes, and giving her those sorts of things in order to befriend her. Giving her the ability to tell the researchers if an experiment is going too far and causing her severe pain via sign language. Explaining that they want to do these things, but getting her approval and stopping as soon as she says to because it's hurting her too much. Giving her the ability to communicate her side of the experiment. It's obvious she has actual sentience, to or potentially even above the average human level, so she should be treated as such. "Studying" an object's anomalous properties doesn't mean forcing them to interact with things we'd normally test (such as freezing and boiling of water). There are ways to do this while having the whole "cold, not cruel" thing actually handled properly. Allowing yourself to remain distant and detached emotionally while still giving even the most basic level of humane treatment, especially to things that are clearly both alive and intelligent.
The foundation is such a jerk to conduct such painful experiments on a nice and motherly SCP. I mean how did the research teams' conscience not kill them?
SCP website: here, we showcase a multitude of unique stories, creatures and objects Writer: that’s right! Check out my story about a humanoid woman made entirely of water Another writer: and my story about an otter made entirely of water! *both look at each other* Both: “HEY!!”
Here we have an anomalous water supply, something that isn't formed from thermal, electromagnetic, biological, or supernatural reasons. So what does the lead researcher do? He pisses the anomaly off. Might as well piss off a certain lizard too while he was at it.
Wait since when are we allowed to talk about the fun exploitable things we have in the foundation where millions people can see and I'm still not allowed to have a chainsaw Cannon!!!
researcher: "lets just do some experiments" interviewer: "what kind of experiments?" researcher: " oh.. um HOW ABOUT FREEZING AND CHIPPING PARTS OF HER and draining her water and expose her to acid"
At least with the GOC they try to put down the anomaly there and then, in a way preventing unnecessary suffering, meanwhile in these types of instances the foundation performs those actions repeatedly while leaving the anomaly alive to suffer the consequences
You know this is dr. Escoles fault right he took a gentle peaceful anomaly and nearly turned her turned into a Euclid a keter class just like with The Hitch-Hiker🤦🏾
A completely friendly water nymph that was hurting no one and the scp foundation decided to do horrible experiments on it and causing who knows what kind of irreparable damage. I get why the scp foundation has enemies and why some could see them as the bad guys. Many times they act like cold evil scientist who just want to perform horrible experiments and lack any kind of humanity.
Knowing about chemistry the idea that a drop of even saturated HCl solution diluted in a vat of water could burn you is hurting my suspension of disbelief
I’m not sure if the author knows how chemistry works, they would have had to put a lot of HCl into the water for there to be any chance of chemical burns. They used a 0.5M solution in what was supposedly over 60L of water? Even at 10L it would be so diluted that the once .5 would be like a .2M solution which can’t hurt you, I know from experience the .5 isn’t that much of an irritant either.

The first couple of thousand SCPs were created in a world where there was no EC and the D-Class got yeeted at the end of every month because they were death row inmates to begin with.
*cough* *cough* ETHICS COMMITTEE’S EXISTENCE *cough* *cough*
After all these disturbing scps, its refreshing to see an scp like this :D
I find this one far more disturbing than the others, and not because of 054. It was calm, docile, and even friendly until it was basically tortured just to satisfy the morbid curiosity of mankind
@@Thund3rDrag0n12 it's more sad to me, for exactly the same reasons.
@@Zel-Veraan mhm. It's disturbingly sad because this isn't how people expect the modern SCP Foundation to conduct themselves. This was before the ethics committee was established most likely
Nice pun you did there
(Does torture testing on a friendly entity)
"Why is she so aggressive?"
(Continues torture)
I feel like 054 shows how our curiosity can sometimes forget how to show mercy upon another species when interacting with it and then we get confused why It became more hostile or died out
Well this brings a new definition to "thirsty."
0:56 You know it's fiction when English spring days are warm and lakes are clean
That is an absolutely gorgeous thumbnail picture for the video, in my opinion your best one yet... keep up the good work 👏
There's so many humane tests they could have done, like introducing kool-aid to the nymph, but no, dry, freeze, burn, shock, harm the poor girl. Glad they changed the researchers in charge of her.
2:27 by this logic, every human is Euclid
Crazy how they leave the evil ones alone and harm the most safest scps the most.
you know, the value of the number really tells you a lot about when this SCP was found. you can’t figure it out? ok, here’s a hint: BEFORE THE ETHICS COMMITTEE WAS FOUNDED YOU FUCKING DIMWIT
Not so crazy tbh. It's the same reason people don't hunt carnivorous animals for food, it's just that herbivores are easier to catch.
One of my favorite SCP’s and their it goes… mentally and physically abused by mankind for the sake of “research”.
Emphasis on mankind. All she wanted to do was make friends with the one girl she met and now I wouldn't blame her if she hated males' guts for treating her body with disrespect
1. apparently the SCP foundation is the absolute best representative of humans.
2. ETHICS COMMITTEE DIDN’T EXIST YET KNOW YOUR FUCKING HISTORY
3. this was an oddball case of abuse of power and total neglect of morality by researchers.
4. the researchers were demoted and then later terminated.
SCP Foundation: * performs a series of increasingly cruel experiments on a safe SCP *
Safe SCP: * "suddenly and without any apparent reason" becomes hostile and attempts to escape *
Now, why does this sound familiar to me...
066?
Oh, look, a smart, harmless anomaly that is smarter than most of us. Lets torture it" for science."
I’d like citations for the “smarter than most of us” claim
Scp: *takes away all water needed to be comfortable/survive.
Cute water nymph: hey! Hey cute research member! You ever get sucked off by a nymph? Gimme some water and I’ll show you a good time!
I find it funny how huge the contrast is between older SCP’s like this and new ones. The older ones is before anyone actually knew about the whole cold, not cruel thing, so they would just write really awful experiments for fun
I feel so bad for her! The poor hun was tortured for no good reason! The staff are slowly becoming the true monsters.
Friendly SCP: * Exists *
SCP Foundation: *WAit tHat'S IlleGal.*
SCP Foundation: tortures SCPs physically and mentally to see what happens.
Also SCP Foundation: shocked when the SCPs act aggressively towards them.
It’s times like this that you realize how cruel the foundation really is at its core
i'm proud of the restraint scp explained showed, by not making a peeing in the pool joke during the end clip
Now are only "It's a Christmas miracle" and the "burning man" left on this channel then is the "sentient element gang" complete.
I'm now convinced that the SCP foundation is just actively trying to convert literally all of it's safe sentient entities into euclid and keter ones.
Sometimes I forget how absolutely horrible and cruel the scp foundation was in the early numbers
I just want to give her something nice--water lilies for adornment, some fish to play with, etc--as a simple act of kindness with no strings attached.
This is just the end result of when a story is told via a vast array of people. Sometimes we see SCP Foundation refusing to push torture or learning from mistakes. And sometimes we get stories like this where they do stuff just to see if they can. It all depends on the writer, sadly.
Some researcher that has never talked to people before: Maybe if we just pretend we didn’t torture it, the scp will like us again
Scp: **gets tortured and fights back**
Scp foundation: *IT’S DANGEROUS!*
Oh yes, one of the several stories when the SCP Foundation *outright* caused more harm than good.
So a peaceful anomaly comes along, and the Foundation decides to do *this* kind of stuff to it.
Can’t say I’m surprised.
Well actually, I kind of am.
I swear, it's because foundation researchers do horrible stuff to harmless friendly anomalies, that they get plagued by others like scp 682
Poor water nymph. Being abused is never good
Wished the info of this SCP get retcon!
I read somewhere this was one of the earliest SCP creation as in not quite get the whole Secure Control and Protect aspect of the organization! I mean the way they treated her sounds more like the works of the GoG!
Senior researcher: Alright, here's the list of tests that we'll be running.
Junior researcher: Hmm, we have to send this the ethics committee first, right?
Senior researcher:
Junior researcher:
Senior researcher: AHAHAHAHAHA
Junior researcher: AHAHAHAHAHA
What Ethics Committee man? They didn't exist back then.
Here's a good example for why SCP needs an ethics committee.
The SCP foundation: “We are cold not cruel”.
Also the SCP foundation: *Tortures innocent anomalies and sacrifices D Class to dangerous SCPs*
Me: “Hmm not cruel aye 🤔”
the whole torturing innocent anomalies is absolutely cruel,
but the sacrifices of D Class personnel, (and in some cases artificially created human infants) can be put into perspective by the question of "Would you be willing to sacrifice one newborn (who you know was made by the foundation, has no family to raise it, and would be killed off in a different ritual anyway) as well as one adult (who will almost invariably be killed by an scp eventually) monthly to an eldritch horror that will end all life and remake reality into its own image if the procedure fails?
@@grimunknown3503 Yeah you have a point. I’m not saying the Foundation is ‘good’ nor I’m saying they are ‘bad’ I just thought it was kinda funny to see the foundation sacrificing d class for research and saying they are not cruel. In the scp universe GOC , SCPf, Serpents hand , MCF, COB these Gois wants to make the world a better place but they all have their flaws they all have blood in their hands except for MCF (because it’s a charity goi and doesn’t get involved in conflict) and that’s what I like about the SCP universe you can support whom ever you want cuz every goi has some positive as well as a negative trait.
@@Ben10111 I see your point, and I think I went a little overboard in pointing out that while the foundation may be cruel at times, it is almost always necessary to prevent much worse fates from occurring.
well the D classes were death row inmates so they were gonna die anyways. and the older scps were mostly before the ethics committee. a good thing was that the scientist was demoted
Actually, the MCF has gotten people killed, just because they didn’t understand the anomaly because they don’t do research like the scp foundation
Imagine that, they treated her badly and she held a grudge
The more videos that come out, the more I start to sympathize with the Serpent's Hand and other organizations other than the Foundation. I get that they need to be, "Cold, not cruel," but half of the time I can't tell the difference and the treatment of this SCP is not helping that case in the slightest.
Something interesting I noticed about this SCP: a couple of RUclipsrs who talked about this story, they all had different stories of discovery. (in other words, different origins)
I feel bad for her she wad tortured and forced to do experiments honestly thank God she fought back.
Okay, I'll tell SPC-343 that you're thankful that SPC-045 fought back
This feels like one I'd want to write a story about. One where a male researcher is able to start to restore her trust, slowly and carefully. Showing that the only truly bad people were the ones who tortured her in the first place. Treating her with respect, but also trying to engage her in the ability to actually communicate. She can't speak or write... or at least audibly. Sign language exists, and she seems more than capable of hearing in order to understand the instructions given to her. It shouldn't be difficult to teach her sign language at all, and allow her to actually vocalize her own thoughts.
I feel like the best solution would be treating her much the same way that SCP-5031 was treated - fairly, with intent to learn and coexist rather than seeing her as nothing more than an experiment to be toyed with and dissected. Learning what she likes, and giving her those sorts of things in order to befriend her. Giving her the ability to tell the researchers if an experiment is going too far and causing her severe pain via sign language. Explaining that they want to do these things, but getting her approval and stopping as soon as she says to because it's hurting her too much. Giving her the ability to communicate her side of the experiment.
It's obvious she has actual sentience, to or potentially even above the average human level, so she should be treated as such. "Studying" an object's anomalous properties doesn't mean forcing them to interact with things we'd normally test (such as freezing and boiling of water). There are ways to do this while having the whole "cold, not cruel" thing actually handled properly. Allowing yourself to remain distant and detached emotionally while still giving even the most basic level of humane treatment, especially to things that are clearly both alive and intelligent.
The foundation is such a jerk to conduct such painful experiments on a nice and motherly SCP. I mean how did the research teams' conscience not kill them?
Luckily the ethics committee was created to prevent stuff like this from happening
their conscience didn’t but the ethics committee sure did. one oddball researcher does not represent the foundation as a whole.
SCP website: here, we showcase a multitude of unique stories, creatures and objects
Writer: that’s right! Check out my story about a humanoid woman made entirely of water
Another writer: and my story about an otter made entirely of water!
*both look at each other*
Both: “HEY!!”
Here we have an anomalous water supply, something that isn't formed from thermal, electromagnetic, biological, or supernatural reasons. So what does the lead researcher do? He pisses the anomaly off. Might as well piss off a certain lizard too while he was at it.
While you’re at it, just tell a certain cannibal that you think he has poor diet choices.
Or maybe tell a certain introvert that he’s too sensitive.

Ireland is not where Big Ben is, in case you didn't know.
You know what maybe the Serpent’s Hand is right
This one and the Hitchhiker really makes me angry
This is just cruel AF. And they are wondering why it's not nice anymore. YOU TORTURED HER FOR NO REASON!!
Wait since when are we allowed to talk about the fun exploitable things we have in the foundation where millions people can see and I'm still not allowed to have a chainsaw Cannon!!!
WTF these guys absolutely made it Euclid for a while.
There are many times when the foundation is like the GOC, like this one or the hitchhiker and others
you’re not cold you’re freezing
The hitchhiker guy went behind the Foundation’s back.
@@SCP_Wandsman13_13 true. But still
@@pipecleanermaster I understand. Just wanted to clarify it
researcher: "lets just do some experiments"
interviewer: "what kind of experiments?"
researcher: " oh.. um HOW ABOUT FREEZING AND CHIPPING PARTS OF HER and draining her water and expose her to acid"
I feel like every now and then the SCP foundation goes full on GOC because why not
At least with the GOC they try to put down the anomaly there and then, in a way preventing unnecessary suffering, meanwhile in these types of instances the foundation performs those actions repeatedly while leaving the anomaly alive to suffer the consequences
Now when ever someone brings up the chair and calls the goc horrible I'll bring this up.
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL TOO MUCH!!!!!!!
SCP be like "We're cold not cruel" but they also be like "Oh no why is everything that we torture so aggressive towards us"
You know this is dr. Escoles fault right he took a gentle peaceful anomaly and nearly turned her turned into a Euclid a keter class just like with The Hitch-Hiker🤦🏾

Getting a piece of sharp metal from a random girl in a lake isn't a viable form of election.
A completely friendly water nymph that was hurting no one and the scp foundation decided to do horrible experiments on it and causing who knows what kind of irreparable damage. I get why the scp foundation has enemies and why some could see them as the bad guys. Many times they act like cold evil scientist who just want to perform horrible experiments and lack any kind of humanity.
In my eyes, this is represents a breach of one of the foundation’s most important self-principles, “we are cold, not cruel.”
a breach they paid for with their lives.
Knowing about chemistry the idea that a drop of even saturated HCl solution diluted in a vat of water could burn you is hurting my suspension of disbelief
SCP: Is tested on horribly.
SCP: Gets angry.
The Foundation: tHiS mAkEs No SeNsE iT's EuClId.
6:21 jeez, what ever happened to cold, not cruel? Seems that grey area is stretched veeeery thin
This was before the Ethics Community existed. They were in fact cruel back then.
Whatever you say, the scp foundation will be the ones that listen to you, even if you say that your chair just began to drive away
I’m not sure if the author knows how chemistry works, they would have had to put a lot of HCl into the water for there to be any chance of chemical burns. They used a 0.5M solution in what was supposedly over 60L of water? Even at 10L it would be so diluted that the once .5 would be like a .2M solution which can’t hurt you, I know from experience the .5 isn’t that much of an irritant either.
Ah yes! Let’s declare it Euclid after we conducted horrific experimentations on it!
