This has honestly gotta be my cannon ending for the scp universe, when all is said and done, everything will end not with a boom, but a sigh of relief.

10:05 props for the guy still selling hats at the last hours of the world, a true sigma never stops his grind

I find it hilarious that Lily, the author of this 001 proposal, expected people to not like this proposal. Instead, it's one of the best of them, alongside Gate Guardian and When Day Breaks.

Anyone else wouldn't mind if this is our apocalyptic event in reality? It's so peaceful despite the world ending. No chaos, panick or hysteria. No last minute shoppers trying to stock up for the end of the world, just world peace as it seems as we meet our end

"For the first time in years..." *"A gamer, somewhere in the world decides to go outside"*

"It's a beautiful day outside" "Birds are singing" "Flowers are blooming" "On days like these kids like you...." "Should be enjoying your last day"

This SCP is the most bittersweet one Sure yeah, no one would be calm if we had word that the world was ending, but this SCP makes flowers and calms down everyone It's like the SCP is telling everyone "yeah, you're all gonna die in 24 hours, but that's bound to happen, no need to panic, go smell the flowers"

This is it. This is my favorite 001 entry. A peaceful end. Not going out with a bang OR a whimper, going out with beauty and joy.

This is such a heartwarming bittersweet SCP. On one hand, the world loses all of its evil, ill willed, and conflicts… but on the other hand the world completely ends.

We have a saying in my country: "Ultimo dia, nadie se enoja", which literally translates to "last day, no one gets angry". We say this whenever its the last day of something, like school, or when someone is having their last day at their current job, and therefore, we have to say farewell with joy, peace and love. This SCP feels like a living, world-scale embodiment of that saying.

So wholesome. So terrifying. This has to be the bitter-sweetest end of the world I could think of. Brings a tear to my eye knowing in the end, All SCP personnel are Equal; D-Class and Soldier. The Scientists and The 05 Council alike. They cast of their Ranks. They free themselves from mortal worries. And we all die the same.

I actually cried. The concept of complete and utter peace being unfathomable to my brain. What an incredible concept

“Well we had a pretty good run” -The best speedrunner ever

Ah, an SCP-001 story, this is going to be interesting. What’s that you say it’s about the end of the world. I’d be slightly annoyed at this common theme but I feel….absolute calm.

“The SCP foundation has died in the dark so you could live in the light” “Secured, Contained, Protected”

These kinds of stories always make my cry and, honestly, get angry. How dare you go peacefully into the night. Doesn't it say something about our society that so many people find this beautiful? It's death. It's a testament to how we could make the world better, right now, way before the end. But we're not doing it. Why not? Why does it only seem believable that we could all have a good day when it's followed by death?

This is my favorite proposal of SCP-001. It's a grand mix of everything. Fear, amusement, sadness, happiness, chaos, calm, illogical, logical, and can be developed more to other proposals.

8:38 "O5-3 invites the ethic committee to join, nobody disagrees" god i love that line so much

This is honestly the most terrifying end for me. A complacent, whimpering death surrounded by pacified reality.

I think the scariest thing about this scp is that nobody even tried to stop the world from ending and the death of humanity.

I feel as if "What a Wonderful World" would be the perfect theme song for when The World's Gone Beautiful plays out.

I love this SCP. It's so bittersweet.

Damn... This made me tear up a little bit thinking about how I'd spend my last day on Earth. Great video!

I can imagine that the one person who would definitely like this ending would be Dr. Bright as I'd imagine he'd spend his days with his remaining family members, knowing that his immortality will finally come to a peaceful end.

"It's all beautiful. Hell on Earth. Heaven in mind. Diamonds become sand. The sun explodes. It's all beautiful. It is all beautiful. "

the most dangerous, yet beautiful and heartwarming SCP to ever exist

I can't be the only one thinking this would be a horrifying end, no attempts to stop it, nothing is done to try to save us? that terrifies me.

This literally brightened up my day. Honestly the most wholesome end of the world ever

I’d spend it making sure everyone has what they need to enjoy their day. Nothing makes me happier than knowing I helped bringing people joy

This is somehow scary, heartwarming, and heartbreaking at the same time

This is such a beautiful and inspiring ending. The sense of total peace and human brotherhood at the end of all things genuinely brought me to tears.

SCP foundation: we have birds that cancel out aggression and could theoretically bring about world peace. Also the SCP foundation: LET'S SAVE EM FOR THE LAST DAY ON EARTH!

I’ve always thought that if there was an SCP show, this would be the best finale.

This really made me cry. Just how he talked so slowly with my mom listening to sad classical music. And everyone being happy and getting together (especially the chaos insurgency. I always had love for them because they were cool)

Man, this video brought me to uncontrollable tears. Usually I can stifle a tear for sadness and beauty but this overwhelmed me. The beauty of everything being okay for once and nothing bad happening, and then it all ends. Beautifully written and told.

This could be the best case scenario. A moment of peace before the World tears itself apart.

This has to be one of my favorite 001 stories. No violence, no horror or anything. Just peace, happiness, and love.

It's a bittersweet ending. It's like passing away in your sleep. A moment of calming bliss before never waking up again.

This was beautiful. The only thing I would have added, was 053 getting to spend her last few hours with 682. I literally almost started ugly crying when God said "We had a good run, didn't we?" What a wonderful way to end it. I appreciate your hard work so much. You give so many people more than entertainment. You give us an escape. Into a different world, sometimes it's terrifying, sad, confusing and complicated BUT it's *ALWAYS INTERESTING* and the animation is top par also. You truly pour your heart into these and I just wanna say from myself, and every other subscriber, *THANK YOU SO MUCH*. Please keep up the flawless work. ❤❤

Damn cthulu has stop being a simp and touched grass for once and the last time. Truly amazing

"It's a beautiful day outside... Birds are singing... Flowers are blooming..."

School will remain open 💀

I actually like these types of endings. There's no hope but that's not bad. There's no bargaining, no denial, no anger, no whatever, only acceptance and that is peace in itself

Ah yes, Lily's Proposal. One of my favorite entry for the scp 001 slot. It's so simple and sweet and yes it brings a chill like any other article. It's also a nice addition to the scp universe as a whole since it's so splashable to a variety of articles and tales that other authors would write

*Korea Unifies* Now this must be one of the most powerful, scary, and absolutely frightening SCPs.

This video made me cry. It is so wholesome and gives me a thought of what the world should be. Very emotional. Good work!

If it's my last day, I'd spend it just simply enjoying the things I did everyday one last time. Savoring each sensation. Taking the last morning jog as the flowers grew, then imaging and picturing some old characters and scenes I adored in the stories I read. Make up with my family, friends, to all those I can reach really, and just be happy doing things I've done throughout my entire life. I'd rather not end the last day with a bang, but with a sigh of relief knowing I've done my best and lived life as I have doing what it is I've been doing.

I think what is scariest about this is that SCP-1000's population has a "Day of flowers" in their histories, which is the time before they were almost wiped out by humanity

I was just thinking about this one I couldn't wait till you all properly covered this one !!

DANG this almost made me cry, some good story telling right there

good sides: everyones chill, nobody's fighting, everyones happy bad sides: *WORLD FUCKING DIES*

When the world actually ends, I want it exactly like this. No hate. No fear. No judgement. People dancing in the streets. The world gone beautiful.

Fun fact: this could’ve happened hundreds of times but luckily (or unlucky for some people) their is a scp that’s a skip button that eliminates all ending class threat level and we have no idea

Your world is 0% corrupt and 100% hallow. You have a lot of work to do!

i love how this is reminiscent of how everyone is just killing eachother for the “silly reasons” it really shows us why we should be peaceful

I'd spend the whole day in bed, only getting up to eat something sweet. I've done this many times over the years due to depression and anxiety disorders. But this time I could just enjoy having a peaceful rest day... in bed, warm, calm, conforted, instead of covered in sweat and tears, teeth clenched and muscles tense involuntarily, my mind a vortex of negativity. And then a sweet morsel, a PB&J sandwich or some chocolate, something to feel like a child, a flavour of nothing to worry, just for the sake of tasting something sweet, instead of it being a guilty snack, a reward I didn't deserve because I was a useless slob. Yeah, repeating this same day like many times before but this time doing it right and feeling good about it would be a nice end.

This feels like a mind control type of stuff, the most powerful kind. The fact that everyone just accepted it without ANY resistance is very weird. No trying to reverse it, no trying to escape that reality, nothing. If it isn't mind control and it really is impossible to stop does it mean that every reality will be destroyed at once?

I was absolutely falling apart tonight. Sobbing. Broken from the days and days of working without rest. I needed this. So much.

SCP-999 looks so hilarious with those sunglasses XD

SCP Foundation =it's been a pleasure to serve you. We've had secure, contain and protect. *Sobbing intensifies*

Blissfulness before death, is the greatest gift that anyone could receive.

Thinking about 053 getting to actually interact with people in a friendly way makes me happy

I can't beleive I cried to this. I just wish the world was this way all the time. No violence, no hurt, no hate, no pain, just calmness and happiness. Nothing to worry about anymore.

Why does this make me cry 😭😭 of all the horrors in the SCP universe, I think it's seeing all of it just settle in and be happy in a way their universe strongly disfavors. Hearing Iris get to go back to her family is the part that really made me cry.

This is such a beautiful and sad story. The world coming together to spend the last days on earth in a Peaceful calm matter. SCPs running around free to live their dreams. If only It didn't have to come to a end

10:54 this Cthulhu guy is more productive than me. I’d be spending my time gaming with the boys meanwhile this chad he re goes outside

'Cthulu takes a break from his intense Minecraft gaming' what a quote

Who left the onions here? I love this proposal. It feels as something natural and predetermined. It feels as a victory for humanity and the non-aggressive anomalies because it means nothing evil, horrible or gruesome ended things prematurely, and we just lived for as long as we were supposed to, as well as having peace in the end.

This might be my favorite SCP article of all time, alongside the tale "Quiet Days". They both have the same peaceful melancholy feeling, asking "now that it's over, what was it all for?"

knowing all of the freed scp's back stories... makes this just a lot better

This reminds me of the idea in my head that after the heat death of the universe, credits will roll and everyone and everything who ever came to be comes together on stage to give one last bow before whatever comes next. I like this idea if solely it implies that everyone had a part to play and there were actually no evil people/ideas/things in the grand scheme of things.

This SCP seems like a friendly version of the other SCP-001 "When the day Break".

It’s so sad that the tunnel monster still tries to find Joe, even when he is dead.

10:55 when a discord moderater touch grass

A video like this, or rather, an SCP like this, really just makes you want to get up and show your pet or family some love, doesn't it?

It's like every single creature in the world has simultaneously entered an amplified, prolonged post nut clarity. World peace achieved.

0:28 ain’t no mountains high enough, ain’t no valley low enough 🎶 Plot twist: no one dies.

This video literally made me cry. It was happy and sad at the same time.

"How would you spend your last day on earth?" 1. Spend time with my family and friends. 2. Make peace with my enemies 3. Do something exhilarating. A very Wholesome End.

scp-001 also known as "The World's Gone Beautiful" Part One: Twee Pop Let's talk about the purpose of using this particular object class. Firstly, it takes a departure from the fairly standard object classifications by using a completely mundane word. Think about it, Embla, Apollyon, Maksur, Netzach, all are foreign words that are generally used to sound massively important. If someone is using an esoteric object class, they're setting up the reader to expect something extremely groundbreaking or fantastic, something that obviously sets apart the article from the standard storytelling SEK format. While Keter tells us the anomaly is difficult to contain, Apollyon fundamentally changes what we expect from the article. We expect the Apollyon article to have multimedia, be about the Scarlet King, to have at least twenty offsets, and fundamentally and irreversibly change the lore of the SCPverse, among several other things.But here, "unnecessary" strives to achieve that same purpose, to the opposite extreme. "Unnecessary" is an English word, one that isn't niche or bizarre. I'm fairly certain you and I know what it means, as opposed to Ein Sof which requires an entire footnote and a half to explain. By using a normal English word, the document is now easily accessible to the general population, i.e. the audience. SCP-001 doesn't hide behind code words or indomitable technicality. The object class is very simply "unnecessary", and it's something the common layman can understand even if we have no knowledge of the anomalous. That also goes for the rest of the article.There's even a double entendre at work here, that the object class itself isn't necessary. I'll explain this one more in the description.I'll answer that. "Unnecessary" serves several roles, the first of which is tailored to the audience. Since the audience comes expecting the SCP-001 to be a grand piano and an orchestra, this object class subverts that expectation. Imagine this. You enter the SCP-001 Hub, you're greeted with a scary cool memetic kill agent and over . This thing has been engineered to importance. But then you get Lily's Proposal. It doesn't pretend to be all encompassing or massively complex with a crazy object class like Thaumiel/Apollyon. It isn't a foreign word, it's easy to understand, and with that subversion, "unnecessary" essentially captures the attention of the reader. Part Two: Electronicore So special, the conprocs are technically a holdover from the original format! I'll explain this later. Just keep this in mind. SCP-001 does not need to be contained. That's interesting! This is very uncharacteristic of the Foundation, known for its borderline obsessive containment of anomalies. Clearly, something about SCP-001 is off. We don't know what yet, but it'll make a lot of sense. In the event of SCP-001 occurring, all personnel, including D-class, are to be honorably discharged, and may do what they wish with their remaining time. This tells us SCP-001 is final. These personnel are not coming back after an SCP-001 event, since they've been officially released. No tricky Foundation sleeper agents or something equally crazy. They're gone for good. Keep this in mind.Honorably discharged is an interesting procedure to include. Historically, this is most often used in a militaristic context, so I'll be looking for the qualifications of an honorable discharge in the wikipedia page: Part Three: Future Funk Part Four: Folk Blues (crap its broken well i'll do this later or the next day after this)

This is my favorite SCP-001 entry so far. It all seems so melancholic... yet so hopeful... there's really nothing to fear, just a final calm moment on Earth, before it all ends, it almost seems desirable, in some way

“096, 682, and 106 join arms and dance.”

It’s almost like a slice of SCP-6001 Avalon, an alternative reality where everything is in harmony. Even the 682’s are at peace with the world there.

I actually screamed "Let's fucking go" in the staff room as loud as i could. I fucking love this one so much.

imagine if you combined 999 with this like 999 just walking and parading through the streets of the entire world giving everyone that one last feeling of happiness and euphoria before the final end

This is easily one of your best videos and such a beautifully sad scp

I feel like I should be listening to the “world is beautiful” by Marcus Warner right now

I was wondering when you would cover this. It is simultaneously one of the creepiest SCPs and one of the most well written.

POV: SCP 001: WORLDS GONE BEAUTIFUL And SCP 001: WHEN DAY BREAKS happens on the same day

imagine if in the speakers the scp foundation just says, APRIL FOOLS!

This is the best XK event of end of the World to be in

Undertale and SCP Foundation: Both afraid of the lines "It's a beautiful day outside," and "The Flowers are Blooming"

This is probably one of my favorite videos on your channel.

And it ends not with a bang, but with peace, knowing that everyone lived their lives as best they could, doing what they thought was the correct choice and knowing that in the end it doesnt matter, everyone and everything will end

Girls: I cant believe he didnt cry during Titanic! Do men even have feelings? Men:

Id like to imagine that at 23:55 every television screen around the world simultaneously played that video of Patrick riding a seahorse to the ending music from Evangelion.

I love how thia implies that Doctor Gears , Cold Facade was indeed a facade , But yet it has driven everyone away from them, And thus he spends his last day with those that thought him heartless

This implies doctor gears doesn't have any loved ones to return to...

World : I'm gonna end myself Everyone: *Understandable have a nice day*
