#scp #scpfoundation #thevolgun
A friendly old man on a bridge who will paint your portrait and give you meaningful advice. SCPs usually have frightening and/or dangerous entries, so it’s kind of nice coming across something so wholesome 😊
The idea that scps are usually dangerous and terrifying is a relic from the early days of the scp wiki
You may find that newer entries will have a much more balanced mix of horror, the wholesome, the comical, and such
Yeah, I was expecting the paintings to predict or cause horrible fates for those painted, but the only anomalous part about this guy is that he's some kind of ghost or immortal extradimensional entity. It was a pretty wholesome story.
You would suspect your caricature strangling you from the picture...
096: kills you for looking at it
173: breaks your neck for not looking at it
3471: gets you through a rough spot in life
And as heartwarming as the old man is the SCP Foundation still locks him up and put them in in a box.
I wanted to cover a few heartwarming SCP's - it's a nice change of pace.
Yeah this reminds me a bit of SCP-4999.
Well done; this is actually one of my favs.
When you do get back to more eldrich stuff, I've been reading a lot of Vikander-Kneed Technical Media (VKTM), for a better tomorrow!(tm). I bet your viewers may like those...
A good call. People tend to forget that not every story is a bloodstained nightmare with the foundation being worse than the threats they face.
Contrary to popular belief, not all SCP’s are harbingers of destruction, madness & despair. Some like 3471 & 6485 are more wholesome & helpful to the world.
Benign SCPs are always a treat, thank you kindly.
I love the safe SCPs because they're actually creative and interesting rather than just "thing that wants to kill people" and "thing that REALLY wants to kill people"
What about "Thing that kills people, but doesn't want to kill people".
Just another murder monster
Are there any that are “thing that is unable to kill people but wishes it could kill people?”
@@iantaakalla8180 hitler clone, prolly REALLY wants to kill people, but in turn just gets its ass kicked.
Well, there are Safe Class SCPs that can still kill people. Just, they are so easy to contain. That they are not a threat. (Unless it is Pester Bot. That thing can't beat a paper bag) The "Safe" status is ease of containment and likelihood of the general population being disrupted by it. Sure, the Old Man randomly appearing and wanting to paint a picture of you is kind of disruptive to a degree. Yet, it is on such a small, localized level. That it is easy to contain it and resolving that disruption. It isn't an issue.
Then, again. Really, sometimes people need some random, nice stranger who is not judgmental or has any biases. Just say the right things to make you feel better. Even going so far as to give advice that is far more impactful to you personal that you never realized you needed. That is kind of the little message this SCP is giving.
As I've gotten older, I find myself more contemplative, and the man from the journal having heart disease at just one year older than myself really made me see this SCP in a different light. I think most people, in the end, just want a little peace in this world. Regrets, concerns for the roads not taken, they tend to pile up around us as we get older. I think this SCP is about making peace with ourselves, no matter what kind of life we may have lived.
Love all these SCP's that are just nice with no twist, a nice break from some entity that just exists for the sake to bring chaos with it, a great reminder that the unknown isn't inherently bad.
SCP4999 will always be one of my favorite SCP's and a golden example for SCPs like this one.
As this eco stated the world has a funny way of making balance no matter how big or small there is a formidable and equal reaction
I really enjoy these more smaller scp's, there's been way too many world ending ones recently. Always a pleasure to listen.
The worst part is that they all feel like they're from the same Michael Bay-esque writer.
I get bored with the world ending ones now. I like ones like this or Gaia or the really scary monster whos actually a fantastic chef and just wants to make you delicious food!
@@loulabelle5082 I appreciate the little oddities as well, things like a curio cabinet that add things that people consider to have great beauty to it's shelves, slowly filling up over time as artworks, statues and parts of nature seem to vanish from the real world, only to end up on a little shelf in a cabinet in a room.
@@FriezaSucks I like the really scary creature ones too, though. The old classics like 096. After the 3000's I got a bit bored with them but every now and again you still find an absolute gem.
So the chef in JoJo D/U
That “expecting me to need a wheelchair” part really hits hard. Sometimes the smallest tragedies hit the hardest. The tragedy of knowing your best days are behind you, but wishing they weren’t. At least that’s small when compared to other, bigger tragedies like war, for example lol.
If you think about it, these nice SPCs are most likely abundant but due to the lack in harm/danger could easily go unnoticed. That's a nice thought
That actually makes me pretty happy. Thinking of those small blessings and experiences could be given by different little benevolent scps kind of brings a balance to the world of scp that is so dreary and constantly dangerous.

(Draws his picture racing over the bridge, crying)
(Message: Shyness can feel like shame, and shame can drive us to do awful things. But the first step to healing is not liking yourself in the mirror, but figuring out why you don't want to look yourself in the mirror, and deciding if that is worth the possibilities you leave on the table)

😂😂😂
as i was listening to this SCP, i kept thinking “what’s the catch? does it steal people’s souls? do they die in a horrible way a day after being painted?” guess we’re all a bit too used to malevolent SCPs. nice to see a wholesome one :)
Legit had to listen a second time because my brain is so used to the standard SCP that it was convinced his heart disease issue was from saying hello to the SCP.
Now, if 3471 was afraid of the foundation and didn't materialize when the foundation approached the bridge, it would have been the most docile Euclid/ keter anomaly.
30:40 interesting that he possibly accidentally found a foundation operation, which might explain why he's an anomaly to begin with. I wonder if he shows up in another entry as an Easter Egg.
The only deer scp I know of is the one that is a god I think a variant Saturn specifically (since Saturnalia is very important in that one). Doesn’t inspire too much hope for that universe. Very not safe for work with the sacrifices that have to be made to make it think it is trapped.
I'm thinking he might be the one that disappeared. The cracked pocket watch is an interesting clue.
Perhaps he was the one who disappeared, considering that line where he basically says “that guy that disappeared didn’t enjoy his time with the organization so he left.” The only way he would know is if he either encountered the person and read his mind or if he himself was the person.
@@MikeWToast remember, he does have ability that tell him other peoples pasts and potentially what they are thinking as well.
Dude i need to thank you, your vids kept my sanity during stroke rehab
Hope you’re recovering well
@@MrJonesthe1st its going positive , ty stranger on the internet.
I hope your recovery is going well.
A bit late, but hey, I hope you’re doing much better now
Can only hope you're doing well
My dog was deaf but she was so attentive you'd never know it unless she was sleeping. She seemed to listen better than most fully able bodied humans.
I like the streak of 'SAFE' SCP's lately 🫰
This is only the second
Wow, this is the first time I've seen the heart fingers emoji
My favorite part is where dude is like I cannot write about how bad this random book is, it would take too much time, despite my having all day every day stuck where I am.
I love the SCPs that give you a warm feeling. It's kinda sad that such well done and heartwarming SCPs get overlooked for the bigger, scarier SCPs. Can't wait to hear some more light-hearted SCPs.
Most of them being scary is what makes the nice ones special.
Finally an SCP that isn't a Godzilla fanfiction.
On a less cynical note, this one was just amazing. Very well written. I was going to play this in the background while getting some other work done, but it was too well acted and written for me to not focus on it. Great job!
Long form videos like this are the best. Thanks for taking the time to do them man
Came here to say what others have said already, in that having a wholesome SCP was a great change of pace.
I wouldn't normally listen to something of a Euclid class as it's not dramatic etc but I loved this. The portrayal of this SCP as benevolent, kindly and as of some kind of guide. Ironic that he is referred to numerous times as the fool when in fact he is endowed with more wisdom than most men can achieve in a lifetime.
It’s nice to see a wholesome entry. Not every thing needs to be doom and gloom.
Edit: it had some gloom.
It had some gloom
When 90% of your fanbase are edgy teens, well, you can see how it all manifests that way
@@stevenhetzel6483 I'm an Edgy Adult in my early 30s.
DUDE DOOM AT PLANTS VERSUS ZOMBOIWE
A like the added touch that Hywell went from calling him “the old fool” to “the old man” I think it’s very nice.
Also the anecdote about the one French boy who would try to learn about the people in the cemetery was really wholesome.
There are very few scps i wish were real and this is one of them. Thank you for another great video Volgun!
Can't help but to agree there!
The skips where there is polite dialogue between the skip and whoever so happens to converse with the skip, are always my favorites.
Even in horror themed skips, if there is simple polite conversation to humanize (if such a term is even possible) the skip makes the entries all the more vivid and memorable.
I love how genuine this one is. I want more of these in the future
The scariest SCP of all: one that gives you unvarnished truths.
This was an absolutely wonderful SCP you've covered.
You have so much vocal talent that it's nice to hear you use your skills for such emotional readings instead of the usual SCP fare.
The tonal shift is very welcome.
You are one of the best and my personal favorite scp UA-camr. You don't waste time with silly gimmicks your lectures are presented wonderfully and you have a phenomenal talent for story telling!!! Thank you for your hard work
It nice seeing an scp who only want to paint people's portraits and give life advice,it warms the soul
This is a powerful piece of work. As always, a wonderfully voiced and professionally done treatment of an SCP entry. As somebody struggling to keep my mobility against a progressive debilitating condition (ankylosing spondylitis) while being driven out of my former hobbies and lifestyle, I find this entry especially moving and inspirational. A wonderfully entertaining "distraction". Thank you.
ooh, this is such a lovely SCP... even the name. paint under the bridge, like the saying "water under the bridge"
a saying of let it be, let it go, it doesnt matter now, and its forgiven. let go of your regret, forgive yourself and live to be better.
I so appreciate the effort you put into fleshing out these stories. The lesser known ones especially. A real treat.
The gold around the thumbnail and seeing SAFE is like sitting by the fire after coming home from a blizzard
Whoever came up with those depictions have done a great job, paintings are heartwarming
I miss those "wierd , potentially dangerous, anomaly" SCPs and not the OP "you do this, the world ends" ones
There was one from the early days that was like "if we made no attempt at all to contain this then the world would end". That's the kind of world-enders I like, where the SCP is outclassed the moment any organization contains it, but hidden in the wild for decades it could theoretically grow it's area of effect to worldwide size.
Come to think of it I might be thinking of the first use of "xk-class end-of-the-world scenario" on the scp website. I was using the unofficial K-Class listing as a informal suggestion of what to read next. Just clicking every link one by one and reading about a different end of the world.
@@WildBluntHickok The flesh that hates
I'm under the mentality that the SCP Foundation is more afraid of Safe class entities than Keter class.
its understandable when theres things like 956(Child Breaker) that looks cute and safe but is very much not so
I always appreciate SCPs like this. It's a pleasant reminder that not every entity and not every mystery is malevolent. There are a lot of strange things that will happen in our lives for the better that we will never understand. Keep those moments close to your heart.
Love this one. It's a nice change from the typical super deadly, edgy, and unimaginative scp.
Beautiful acting as always! This was really pleasant to listen to before sleep. I would love to get a painting from the mysterious man.
Thought I would point out, there is someone responding to comments with a fake version of @TheVolgun 's account saying you won a giveaway. That is a well known scam, its not the official channel folks so please be safe and aware.
That being said, I actually had some emotional tears at this one. Well done on the voice acting here it was very melancholic.
I loved this one. Your performance was beautiful and the scp itself is tear jerking in a happy way. 😃
Not to be too sappy, but I really needed this today. Thank you
A nice change of pace from SCP-48975 THE EYES THAT BIND THE UNIVERSE RISK CLASS LMFAO-UNIVERSE SUPER DEATH that are like an hour to skim through as an armchair philospher drags on and on about their favorite way to end all existence.
Congratulations you’re the lucky winner of the ongoing giveaway dm me to claim your prize 🏆 🎉🎉
Yup. Wholesome SCPs are a nice change. It's nice to think there are some ghosts out there that care for us. Heh.
That gives me hope that there's still someone out there who cares for me. Living or not
This and 4999 have got to be
some of the most wholesome
SCPs. And I will always have a
soft spot for 5031, that rascal.
As much as I like the good, big, cataclysmic SCPs, these smaller ones, even the ones about a benevolent SCP, have a special charm to them. Guess it shows the range of stories in the SCP universe and it's one of the things that makes it great.
Congratulations you’re the lucky winner of the ongoing giveaway dm me to claim your prize 🏆 🎉🎉
Wow, this one got me in my feels dude
I like this one, even though its not very exciting. Its like he's an old Roman Spirit of the Place. Watching over bridges and vistas and offering your fortune if you'll sit for a painting.
A genius locii?
This is my new favorite SCP oddly enough.
love the lessons, Dr. Millar!
I liked this. Even as a standalone story the leather-bond journal could have been good, it felt like a separate story from scp-universe. The kind of ordinary persons unknown insight into the foundation, a random chance encounter.
It gives a heartfelt message to people, even if it sounds cheesy. 5/5 video. Good job on this entry reading Volgun.
To be honest I really love the simple beauty of this one
Wholesomeness 100, no wonder they let anyone walk along that bridge.
now i'm curious as to what he did
i mean i think it's pretty obvious that he was gay as shown by 27:33 , and being gay at that time was basically a one way ticket to becoming a social outcast. it seems like he did something to the man to cause his regret, though, and not just regret of becoming a potential social outcast
If only it was still like that
This and 4999 give me similar feelings. Both are bittersweet.
Keep up the excellent VA work, Volgun.
Holy shit, I was so invested in this that until the end, I forgot it was a SCP. I could of listened to this narration for hours.
@@Tele.gram.me.at..Doggord that's cap.
It's nice to have another SCP that helps people. Or at least tries to.
The writing on this one is so lovely. Your narration brought a lot of warmth to this story. New fav SCP
This one was really wholesome. I loved it so much
I like the idea of some mysterious entity that lurks on a bridge painting. Not all scps have to be world ending calamitys. It is refreshing to have a entity that gives me more questions for each one I answer. I like my misterys.
At 30:40 I think it was probably the deer SCP-2845 (however it doesn’t makes sense when the deer didn’t fall to earth until 2011). It could be a different anomaly that is a deer or elk that the painter saw but we can tell is that the painter after this event is afraid of the Foundation and criminals.
Also the author in the discuss tab said that the scp that researchers were there is redacted and can’t really fully used it until they get permission to use it publicly. So the more you know.
I'm loving these interesting and benign SCPs. It's such an injustice that these videos don't seem to get as many views 😤
That tingly feeling you get when you see a Volgun video in your feed 34 minutes old.
Looking at the dates, the man that wrote the journal might’ve died the day after receiving the painting. The year of he wrote the journal and the year he died are covered and it’s unclear to me if 11/09 is September 11 or November 9, he may have lived for some time more or he just died the next day feeling relieved after he read the message from SCP 3471 and that’s why there were no more entries.
In any case, I loved this one. Wholesome SCPs are hard to write well and this was very good. Thank you for all of your work in adding to the experience 🙏🏼
Wholesome SCPs are such a rare thing, hearing it narrated in your voice and style was just what I needed today
I cried when he read the back... and I was frustrated when the painter couldn't be found on the bridge.
That literally made me cry.
When I heard the message about the child being given life I actually real life teared up. I know that shit stuck with him.
It’s always good to see stuff like this, articles that show SCP doesn’t have to be horror to be amazing.
What was the man’s regret? An illicit/ gay affair or something? How does that tie in with his heart?
Great story anyhow - always nice to know not everything supernatural out there wants to tear me to shreds, some just want a chat
I also wondered this but this is the only comment I can find discussing it. I had similar vague thoughts that he could've contracted something but that doesn't seem entirely right with the symptoms he mentions
I thought it was that he was gay and might have rejected someone he loved in a particularly cruel manner.
Yeah this is the biggest question in my mind and I'm shocked that no one else is discussing it. There definitely seems to be some man ("him") that Hywell felt very affectionate about who he compared to the painter. And that there was some major event involving this person that led him to be full of regret. Though I'm not sure if the aforementioned "you know what" event is related to his heart or not. He says that he thinks of his condition as the universe getting back at him for his regrets, but it's not clear whether it's a direct consequence of those events, or a separate event that Hywell considers to be punishment
Love when I get to hear good short stories that i never otherwise would have come in contact with due to the scp universe. Thx for reading the small self contained stuff too. ❤
Aww, a Welsh SCP! A quick note, if it's a Welsh word, like Cynon, the C is more of a K sound, or a hard C like Cat. so Cynon would be like "C(for cat)-Uh-None ".
Congratulations you’re the lucky winner of the ongoing giveaway dm me to claim your prize 🏆 🎉🎉
This one was surprisingly uplifting
This is actually really wholesome for a SCP article and I feel bad for SCP-3471-1’s friend.
Why am I tearing up knowing this old man would paint a picture of my mom...
That was so pretty. It really was a warm and pleasant story.
man this has got to be one of my new favourites
This has easily become one of my favorite entries
Da king is back baby he neva miss
Thank you for all you do. Your videos are the best!
This lecture opened a crack into my heart 💜
I needed this today. Thank you.
Sign language is cool. I'm learning it in university this year!
Never thought I'd cry my eyes out for a scp story.
Dude, you are seriously amazing. Easily the best SCP tube channel out their. You f**king ROCK dude❤❤😊
Big fan of the safe, wholesome SCP entries
This would explain how paintings end up so magically
Up to high
What a nice story, a good break from the Foundation racing against SCPs.
a ghost is a being of pure emotion and little substance. SCP-3471 has more of both than most
That ending was truly beautiful. Thank you.
this was incredible - it felt like I was reading the old Narnia books
I love these so much. Thank you
The voice work for this entry is outstanding.
I like when scps are scary but not neccesarily dangerous like the camera that shows your deepest desire that can be used to deoict horific imagery especially pertaining to those that know the subject or the tree that makes deformed mutated copies of you
This is one of the most wholesome SCPs yet.
Nice and all that 3471-1 assures D-4904 about his daughter but D-class don't get to see the end of next month so quite a hollow reassurance.
Bravo, great pick and reading. Thank you Volgun.
It's nice that there are good SCPs. I wish there were more.
Wholesome SCPs are an underappreciated and underexplored breed.
If The wheelchair guy was 34 when the journal was written, and it took place in the 1950s, he was possibly in his late teens or early 20s during WW2. I have to wonder if his guilt has something to do with the war.
This is my new favorite video!
