 Today, we're gonna talk about something. I've been thinking about how I used to write Tales for the wiki that were set in like a verses sort of context where it'd be like this sec verses this sec And I thought long and hard about it and they they were doing well, but they weren't doing Spectacularly so because they were essentially just readings. So I decided today. I was gonna try and after being inspired by a conversation I had with another youtuber Try and do something similar except I'm just gonna walk you through the scenario in a more, you know Serious in person sort of way So today we're going to talk about how the US military would deal with SCP 096 So the very first thing we have to think about is when we talk about SCP 096 Which canonical representation of it is there and out of the details that we have what does that mean? The scp will actually be capable of doing SCP 096 is capable of fair. It has a very very strong regenerative factor if you look at his face he'll come and find you and He will kill you in about a second or so now we've done a video way back when Talking about how like if everyone in the world got a soft picture of SCP 096 You really wouldn't be as huge a deal, but on limited scales just a couple hundred people They all die pretty quickly when it's seven billion people it takes Decades for him to kill everybody and by that point you're going to have more people born so on and so forth But the US military is going to use every tool at its disposal So assume for a second that in our context of art This is our scenario the scp foundation either doesn't or just stopped existing Every facility every cage every employee every single bit of knowledge they have about scp's poof gone and All that's left are all of the anomalies now the Now the US military uses a number of weapons in active service. We're going to Probably work from say the US Army or a National Guard standpoint Now the thing it's important to remember here is that US military can't technically act on US soil for domestic like Policing So the first responders are going to be the actual police Before they realize that maybe this is a little outside the scope of what they can do and they're going to be using small arms almost exclusively Small arms on SCP 096 can slow it a little bit But that's the most you're going to get out of it like you can you can knock all the meat off of his bones and still his bones will be fine his bones are Not necessarily indestructible. They are as far as the scp foundation knows indestructible Because they've never managed to be able to cause any damage or permanent damage to them But the rest of them is very destructible. So Also in context we have to think about what that means for his like joints So is the cartilage and stuff that connects his bones to other bones indestructible too? It's a good question to ask For our sake, we're going to assume so and that it can continue to move without flesh and meat for example the police would probably send in their SWAT teams everything that they could possibly muster and Shoot it a lot. That's what that's what police do with things. They don't understand or things that scare them After a while, they would all probably be dead because they wouldn't have the time or Knowledge to know that you can't look at its face and they would all have looked at its face And it would go one by one and one and kill them and at this point Wider society is going to learn about this threat. It's gonna be on the news There'll be a hashtag, you know, cancel SCP 096 party or I'm sorry shy guy cancel the shy guy party And lots of thoughts and prayers from politicians and then We will move into the military response because the military will Almost certainly realize this is not something that domestic police can handle and they'll start working on solving the problem as best as they can We're going to see an upgrade in the arms Used against this thing, but none of it's gonna matter. I can list off, you know, the active service. So see the art US army uses The six hour model 17 modular handgun system Yeah, I mean but the modular hand like None of it's gonna matter because these are not the calibers. We're talking about are not going to solve the problem There's not enough. There's not enough power. There's not enough force behind these bullets So they're gonna upgrade now Infographics show did something recently talking about the most powerful guns that the US military has available the traditional likes still Smallish arms None of these it's not gonna do anything the calibers not high enough There's not enough force So we would move to bigger guns the biggest things that we can think of and and while there are still Cannons available. Most of them couldn't be brought to bear on a land target but some of them could we could get how it serves and that kind of stuff going on but By and large you're just gonna see boom boom boom and and Early on you're gonna have a lot of problems with the people seeing the face and getting killed I Say early on because eventually people are going to figure out what's going on and stop it like US military is not made up of a bunch of idiots They will figure out that you can't look at its face or that if you look at its face You're dead that will be something that is determined fairly quickly Although you could lose a couple hundred to thousands of people before that Clicks, but it will click before any widespread problems. Now issue here is The press covering it of course will cause all sorts of problems when people see its face on news So purging that will become its own thing But we're not focused too heavily on that yet What's going to happen is the US military will upgrade and upgrade and upgrade because it's gonna keep killing and they're not gonna be able to stop it so eventually they're gonna start start dropping the biggest bombs that they can drop on it the conventional warheads and then Yes, the next possible option will move into nuclear weapons now This is the problem and this is what the SAP foundation is supposed to teach as a lesson right Destroying things you don't understand and that don't follow the basic laws of physics Doesn't make sense humans us as humans really think about Like if something scares us and we don't understand it the first thing we really want to do Blow it up destroy it get rid of it The unknown is scary and the scary needs to go away But let's say we nuke SCP 096 and let's say for the sake of argument that that's enough that vaporizes the SCP but this is not something that obeys the laws of physics There's nothing to say and this is very this goes back to the wood chipper and the GOC The individual atoms. Yes, you have vaporized it. You've separated into its constituent atoms But it doesn't obey the laws of physics those constituent atoms might move on their own Towards targets anyway and do the exact same thing that they would have done if they weren't separated out into constituent atoms so in the end When you're dealing with something that doesn't make any sense Believe it or not and we could talk about the cost of this to like The handgun rounds those are pretty cheap the big high caliber cannons. Those are Significantly more expensive conventional bombs hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars Nuclear bombs millions of dollars intercontinental ballistic missiles delivery systems millions of dollars The lives of the people who are lost in this and get engagement, you know But there's one solution and it's very good and it will cost almost nothing and that's a Opaque bag over its head That's it. That's all you need to do Once you understand how it works once you understand how SCP 096 works all these guns all these bombs everything makes no sense at all You just put a bag over its head You know what it does, you know, you know how to coordinate off You know how to keep it out of the media and by the way, the media is not that dumb. Let me be clear here Media are not made up of a bunch of idiots either Everything we see in movies and stuff make it out like the police or the military or the media that just the the grand human population Are the dumbest motherfuckers that you've ever met in your entire life the media Knowing that images of this thing will lead to people's deaths Would not continue to put them in front of people so the limit the damage would it would still happen But it would be very limited and it would be taken down by everybody who could take it down And by the way, if you're thinking about how weapon tracking systems might work for any of the previous sets up here Like you don't need to look at a target with an advanced tracking system Like you can just there like even if SCP 096 doesn't generate any heat of its own Which I personally don't think it's true. Even if it doesn't generate any heat of its own It has to move on the ground and it moves quite quickly gonna generate some friction there like tracking it through heat is very easy anyway, that's it, I just wanted to talk a little bit about how How would the s how would the US military deal with the SCPs that we'd interact with and if you like this kind of video Let me know down in the comments down below because this is the kind of thing I'm thinking about doing more of like with other SCPs like how would society deal with SCP 049 and so on and so forth and then Hit the subscribe button and then hit the notification bill next to that so you're notified when I upload new videos I say this every time now, but I don't want it to get lost in the shuffle hitting the subscribe button is Super important, especially if you enjoy this kind of content.
