Yeah, I understand why they left behind that old real or not format, but I would like to see them explore scary stories that are not very known. A spooky story isn't scary bc it might be real, but creepypastas like this or the smile dog one just aren't that fun imo
@@galacticbreadboi9796 Yeah, I can see that. If they put creepypastas every once in a while I'd like that too. Tbh I just wanna see more spooky/scary stories, the latest (the social media expert one for the pharmaceutical thing, the ears one, the elevator one) they are more body horror/gore than anything else, idk
This story is the best example of a creepypasta that starts almost believable and then goes absolutely out the rails to the point of not being scary anymore lmao
I remember my brother showing me this creepy pasta when I was like 14?? Or so? It wasn't on the creepypasta website, and he presented it to me like he was showing me an interesting news article. I believed the first few paragraphs completely, began to question it when shit got involved and soon after realised it was completely made up. There was a lot of "nooo this isn't true that's not a thing!!!" and him trying to convince me it was real lol. The prank was honestly too funny to be mad at tho 10/10 great shenanigans
When I was younger, I never read the actual story because I hated the image of the dude, yeah? You know, the one? And I would keep getting nightmares about it because like, damn that picture was scary to an eleven year old me. Now that I've read and heard it read aloud it isn't.. that scary. Honestly it's kind of just like “yeah this is happening I guess. Cool.”
Right!? Excellent premise, but the ending is just too extra. Would have been way more effective if they'd done more psychological/behavioral stuff and toned down the completely medically unrealistic body horror. Ah well, this one's one of the older classic creepypastas.
im sorry but the last line said by that subject is so funny. imagine reading like, dracula, and theres a line like "actually, jonathan, i am a representation of how the aristocracy preys on poor people, literally sucking the life out of the less fortunate to keep itself alive. also the castle is a metaphor - rich people like to make themselves look high and mighty, even when they're falling apart." and then he dies
I want my last words to be some type of shit like that. I don't even want it to make sense in context, make the person hearing them really question whether or not I was on drugs or something
As a kid I was terrified of this story but all it took was reading one comment that said “uh, actually, if this was real it’d be called the Soviet sleep experiment because of the time it took place” and that immediately dispelled all of my fears I thought it sounded so fair lol
@@funforu8856 Russia was known as the RFSR, Russian Federative Socialist Republic. And Soviet experiments aren't typically known by the SSR or ASSR ir happened in, as people from many SSRs would come and join. It's like calling an American experiment, the Texan Sleep Experiment because it happened in Texas
the mental image of like, a room full of people driven to madness by sleep deprivation, eating each other and smearing shit on the walls, while ryan and shane are chilling in a corner surrounded by discarded kazoos and chatting about movies, is very good
The only thing I'm scared of is a scheming purple genie and a certain beef boy betraying a most beloved and handsome blue puppet. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. RYAN.
I bet that ryan is actually the professor and that this is all what happens in order for him to be the professor! And thats why the professor doesnt reveal his name
Yep! I remember this from sooo long ago in the prime of creepypastas/nosleep/sixpenceee ! I miss being young and reading spooky stuff online tbh :( nothing compares anymore
Someone else commented this a while ago: You could do a series where Ryan presents true crimes that have been solved with possible culprits and Shane needs to guess who did it
That's what makes this the most disappointing creepypasta ever. Starts off with an interesting premise, builds some decent suspense, then just completely falls on its face in the home stretch.
As an insomniac who, at their worst, didn't sleep for 5-7 days at a time on average, I was super spooked reading the beginning of the story back when it dropped. I was also like "wow, I'm doing pretty good"
I had to be tested for Fatal Familial Insomnia because of how bad my insomnia is. Luckily I don’t have it, but it’s absolutely a real thing that people do die from. The “anecdotal” claim at 1:45 is BLATANTLY false.
That's how I feel about a lot of these, lol... It's always great too when they use a non-american country so that American teens can be like "omg is this real"
@@Utonian21 "he was injected with 10 times the human dose of a morphine derivative and still fought like a frightened animal, breaking the ribs and arms of one doctor" yeah, no level of "insanity" can make a human body do that. they wouldn't even live past tearing their stomachs open, they'd probably go comatose from lack of food and water and bloodloss. the idea that they'd have super strength is frankly ridiculous.
The Russian Sleep Experiment is a classic example in a story that started out with a really cool concept, but quickly devolved into just gore and disgust to make it scary, not realising that it's not actually scary, it's just gross.
I agree. To me, and many I think, the scariest stories are the ones that are outlandish enough to make us uncomfortable or scared within the realms of reality without pushing it too far into the safety zone of "this could never happen."
@@DanielleVlog365 These kinds of stories, in my opinion, honestly mostly only ever work when FULLY illustrated. Example: Junji Ito manga. The concepts and plot points are so outlandish and out of this world but the art and the execution are just so well done you can't help but genuinely be terrified.
I like to think of it like a "point of no return," but for creepypastas it's a "point of definitely should return." Like, dial it back, kiddo, you had a good thing going. It's like the writers assume every story needs to escalate, but they've already got a solid concept, so rather than finding a good stopping point, they shove in some Edgy™ nonsense.
@@dlr_rosa254 the name beef boy was bestowed upon him by the beloved professor and he has the GALL to use it! As if the betrayal could go any deeper!! Shame
I can't believe I was actually one of the people who believed this was true. There are a lot of horrific experiments that happened during world war 2 both in Japan and Russia so I didn't even question this when I heard about it haha
@@kmarine8852 I suppose I was under the impression that those were already the most well known countries to perform experiments during that not just because of what's known in history but also from all the conspiracy theories. I was just stating it as a fact that Russia and Japan did that too because I honestly only found out they too conducted experiments when I was in my early 20s
Here’s the thing, while this is an experiment it sounds like the Soviets would try, if it were real they would’ve all been dead by the time the door was opened given how multilated they were at that point. So that’s what gives it away as fake to me.
Sleep is basically the bodies way of flushing ur brain of all the garbage that's built up in it during the day, sorting things out of short term memory into long term memory, and repairing the body. So you might not turn into a flesh eating monster but lack of sleep can definitely fuck your shit up.
When Shane said the number one item he would bring into the chamber with him was a kazoo and the other four items allowed would also be kazoos so that Ryan couldn't take all his kazoos away... I don't know if I've ever resonated so strongly with something a person has said I felt that in my very bones
Dear god I’m glad they had a viewer discretion notice at the beginning of the video! Those burgers were absolutely HORRIFYING! I’m never sleeping again!
The scariest thing about this video is Ryan saying “Let’s see if we can make it to the end of the night” & not “Let’s see if we can make until the end.”
During the story what took me out of it was the remaining survivors. There were 5. 1 was eaten while still in the chamber. 1 died while being removed from the chamber. 1 died while being operated on, which is why they allowed the last two to be awake during the surgeries. So it should be two remaining prisoners by the end, not three.
One didn’t die when being removed, he was the one the most injured. It never said he died it just said he bled out almost instantly but that doesn’t mean he died
How can he even utter the words "Beef Boy" knowing that he decieved and betrayed the one who bestowed him that name, the one who only sought to bring him knowledge and happiness
Lots of creepypastas originate from the somethingawful forums in the early-mid 2000s when online anonymity was a lot more achievable. I think this one is from that time period? Plus it’s not really about the author and more about the story. I think it would immediately break any possible suspension of disbelief if you knew where a ghost story came from. The secondhand/ oral tradition nature of it makes it harder to prove or disprove
I have wondered that too. CallMeKevin is responsible for a well-known creepypasta that got popular for being so bad it made people laugh instead of being scared but then again he was able to reasonably show that it was indeed him who wrote it, maybe the person who wrote this just has no way of proving it, or just isn't "online" enough to care lol
Wikipedia says that snopes traced the story's origin to a creepypasta website and the exact user that created it, who did it in response to a post that challenged users to create the "scariest urban legend". Its not a real story. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Sleep_Experiment
I remember thinking this was actually a thing that happened, but I didn’t know the details. The idea of Soviet Russians preforming an experiment on the effects of weeks with no sleep is believable, the events following is when the reality of it starts to fall apart
For some reason, when I’m reading stuff like this alone, it creeps me out. When I’m watching Shane and Ryan read about it, though, I don’t feel as scared, if at all. (That doesn’t mean I don’t feel disturbed, though.)
they help break the immersion! they interrupt the flow of the story and give us a breather for a moment from the scares. it prevents you (I'm using the general you, I don't mean you specifically here) from getting as scared as quickly as you would on your own. they're distracting, essentially lol but in a good way
I remember reading about this, but the image they always use was the long faced, pitted eyed creature that looks almost skeletal, and I looked it up: it was actually just a sculpture/halloween prop. Well done piece, but not real. Wish more people knew about that. Edit; it’s called Spazm, made by Morbid Enterprises, and was sold at Spirit Halloween.
Look at these two, just carrying on and making jokes as if the professor isn’t dead. I guess Shane didn’t know the professor so he gets a pass, but Ryan? Excuse me? How DARE you
Spoilers Honestly the biggest thing that tore me out of immersion is that so many organs were exposed in this filthy room and the test subjects somehow didn’t die of septicemia within a few days.
The thing that bothered me is that the subjects covered the windows with feces and paper, and the scientists waited three days before entering. They went three days without knowing what was going on in there, and it's supposed to be an experiment?
Right??? Every time someone tells me a story with this ridiculous level of mutilation and gore I'm just like "so they didn't die of shock within hours? So they didn't bleed out or go into septic shock?? Really???"
Honestly it is kind of a funny image of just a dude chilling out with all their organs and blood vessels just.. on the floor, hanging out. Maybe playing some Uno. I like to imagine them just having a slumber party except all the snacks are just.. their own flesh. Gossiping, kicking their legs in the air as they talk about their crushes, and tearing out their internal organs.
As an insomniac who's stayed up for 3 days and a few hours and the worst it got was me becoming terribly 'illiterate' misspelling words and being stupid rather than being crazy.
@@35thrat that image made me read which started my love for creepy stories which made me read more which let me learn english by myself and made me study my career in literature
@@scarletamazon3455 yeah, i think so! he seemed to have more of a clear idea of what the accent would be too, although by the end of that bit both of their accents had evolved into borat somehow lmao
I took a psychology class in high school and when we got to the sleep chapter, someone asked about the Russian Sleep Experiment and whether it was real or not. It’s crazy how many people think creepypastas are real. The writers are phenomenal
To add onto that, it’s also crazy that we live in a world where we’ve conducting horribly unethical experiments on others enough that people genuinely question if something this horrific was actually done.
@@KitKat_630 I mean, we live in a world where ww2 and the cold war happened - and all its inhumane experiments - after hearing about what they used to do, l would be surprised if a "how long can humans stay sane without sleeping" experiment wasnt made.
@@Naharu. I'm pretty sure it never made it to human phase. They did it with lab mice, most died sadly. The was a world record and the person who completed it showed his brain was actually shutting down in places as if sleeping. It was pretty cool. Also from experience the paranoia stage is the worst and you NEED to sleep after 💀
Damn, I’m low-key missing the old format of guessing if the story is real or not. Although I enjoy this creepypasta format, I do miss the shivers you attain after finding out this story is supposedly a real incident
@@regularjoe5517 FYI they changed the format because they thought it was sort of messed up to be joking and laughing about real situations but I’m also certain that the story you guys are talking about was proven to be fake.
This isn't scary, primarily because we know quite well what happens when you are deprived of sleep for days on end, as the person who set the record was monitored at all times by the record keeping authorities. Basically, you just become extremely irritable and paranoid, and get angry at anyone for doing anything.
The world record was set and documented, but there have been studies keeping mice up for longer killing them for inexplicable reasons. The persons brain was functioning as if asleep, hallucinated with all of his senses and experienced paranoia that lead to his irritability. The experiment was meant to keep them up far longer than the world record and thought to be humanly possible, probably trying to create sleepless soilders as the US tried to make soilders who could communicate with computers. It's intresting
@@DpDepresso it was meant to keep them awake for a month or whatever, right, but in the story, it didn't. The crazy shit in the story started happening well before the world record was hit. World record is something like eleven days.
@@ewanball The story has many plot holes this happens to be one of them. You also have to consider the record holder didn't use stimulant gas to stay up. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ You know it's a story
And hallucinate. They also hallucinate a lot. This story just… I’m sorry, when I first heard it (it was framed as real, turns out it’s actually just an old creepypasta), I figured it wasn’t real. Not cause I was smart, I was and still am a dumbass, but I figured it was for one reason: if there was a gaseous stimulant that can keep you awake for days, wouldn’t more people be using it? In colleges, in workplaces, in more experiments, even in torture? It just feels too obvious.
i love that the person writing this story didn't even consider infections would kill these people sooner than anything else edit: i can't believe the number of people getting mad at me for calling out how extremely unrealistic it is and how certain errors ruin the immersion. ik it's a story. it's just not a good one. that's all.
Yeah, the timeline for them eating their own flesh just ruins this for me. Now, if they'd taken one of them out for some other reason and he started eating his own flesh in front of the horrified staff, then fought them with superhuman strength and couldn't be sedated while they were trying to stitch him up, I could have stayed with that. Then the infection can be what helps him along to his grave while he's asking to be put back in the chamber.
I mean, I'm not a doctor, but I think they would have died from blood loss before infection had a chance to set in, depending on how fast they did the self-hacking-and-slashing, but if it was done gradually, then yeah, infection would have deleted them pretty fast edit: the second they opened the chamber, around 11:00 or whatever, that's when my immersion was ruined because yeah no that's not how the human body works even a little bit lol
Longest I’ve gone without sleep is 3 days because of a constant panic attack. Ended up going to the hospital and they gave me a pill to calm down. It helped a lot and now I’m okay. Still, worst 3 days of my life
The original picture that always goes along with this story was the source of so many nightmares and (appropriately) sleepless nights for me when I was younger
Oh no same! The photo was more scary than the story ever was I think. I haven’t seen it in ages but I can still picture it 😂. I was too young to read it probably!
That picture freaked me out too! I felt quite silly when I later learned that it was just a pic of a cheap rubber Halloween decoration with a spooky filter on it 😅

I took a psychology class when I was in my sophomore year of high school and we had to pick a topic to do a project on. Two girls in the class picked sleep and for their project they did it on the Russian sleep experiment thinking it was true
I took psychology too my senior year of high school and I didn't necessarily do a project on the Russian sleep experiment, but my project had pictures as the background that gradually got worse and the last slide had the picture that is well known for the Russian sleep experiment and when I was finished my teacher said "Thanks for giving me nightmares with that last picture"
This creepypasta has been around for years and I discovered it fairly early in my life. The description of prisoner becoming slowly and slowly more deranged as the experiment goes on, to the extent that they receive information from/become these ancient demonic creatures that articulate their situation in such a terrifying way has scared the shit out of me since I first came across this story. The idea of Shane bringing 5 kazoos to this experiment has removed any sense of terror that I might have felt while watching this story and all I can think to do is thank you
I really appreciate shane in this series, his unbothered nature and his humor make these videos palatable. I don’t think I could watch these if it wasn’t for him.
This is actually the first one I watched because I thought it was just Ryan telling made up stories and nothing against Ryan but the two of them are like peanut butter and jelly, so much better together ❤
love how the dude who wrote this was like "how do i make this even creepier.. i know, I'll set it in russia!" as if the cia and mk ultra arent the creepiest shit any government has ever done irl
@@hijibaka I don’t think this is the original version of the story. I think the original author set it in Russia because it’s set during WW2, and honestly this is something the Soviet Union would do if they thought about it.
@@Kaiserin it's really not. but if this did take place during ww2 then the ppl theyd be doing this to would be literal nazis (bc the red army, not america, is who beat them) so who cares lol
I remember in a neuro class hearing about some teen who decided for his science fair project he would stay up as long as he could. with the help of energy drinks and friends i'm pretty sure he only lasted 11 days. a bunch of scientists got in touch with him because there isn't much sleep related research out there. tho I will say we didn't hear about any hallucinating or cannibalistic urges
Truly. I first found out about this through a video by The Infographics Show. It was cut shorter than this and I genuinely thought it was real, not just a creepypasta.
I remember I had friends who believed this and for some reason the thing that got them to stop was when I told them the KGB didn't exist in the 40s. Of all the crazy things in this story that was the thing that made them stop and think
@@AviendhaR Sure! My family used to put together a haunted house for the neighborhood every Halloween. We collected props from hospital catalogs, online sellers, and conventions before there were Halloween stores. This particular picture was just a Halloween prop we touched up with paint and took a photo of for our website which no longer exists. Sorry, the story's a bit anticlimactic.
Hate? Worst? Nah it's one of the best! The highest role that fiction can achieve is inspiring introspection, examination of the self and the universe. Stories like this one are human in that they can show us truths about ourselves. Fears, desires, moral evolutions... Some fiction is just for fun but some aims at the heart of what humanity is, what/why humans are, and in my opinion the latter is the better work and the enduring art. Sorry if it's too gory for you and I truly hope it doesn't make you too uncomfortable, but I hope that you can also find positives in stories like this, especially because the boys make some pretty funny jokes to lighten the mood. I'm not saying it's like the Mona Lisa, but compared to silly stories like "working out" or "holidays" or "voice in the walls" which are good fun but really of no substance, "sleep experiment" is better because it inspires thought on the self. Best wishes :)
@@owlintrenchcoat that's true, the ending is a bit of a faux pas with the final words of the guy, they really should have left it more ambiguous. Not very scary after that part. But I agree, the watcher boys make every story really fun :)
@@guidetoanything except that the amount of sleep we need and its effects sre extremely well documented. i dont mind like introspective stories. but like its hard to engage with a story when basic facts are completely thrown out the window.
Note: the intestines are attached to the body, they are not ramen trapped in a bag waiting to be ripped open Edit: "The mesentery is a fold of membrane that attaches the intestine to the abdominal wall and holds it in place." From the Mayo clinic.
During surgery, the intestines can be removed from the body. Surgeons have to put them on special hooks to keep them out of the way because they squirm around like eels (it's because of the contraction of muscles), and when they are finished they stuff them back in the cavity (more delicately than I'm making it sound) and the intestines wiggle back into place themselves. Those flaps of membrane that hold them in place are not necessary to live, but they are there to stop them from just spilling out when injured, so... yeah.
I'm still kinda bummed that all the stories are now fictitious. The real experiences, like home invasion story or the guy whose former roommate seemed to be in a downward spiral, those were the most interesting.
Most real life horror experiences just end up being a person with mental health issues tho and when you’re allowed to see beyond the constrained view point of the narrator (like when you learn that it was a real experience with real people) it just becomes sad honestly. Like with the roommate one, I was just angry that the friend didn’t help him at all. Horror relies on constant fear and anxiety, which stories that are /just/ realistic enough are perfect at.
I agree. Whenever I get towards the end of one of these videos and something is said that makes it totally clear and obvious it's made-up, it ruins the experience for me. Even when they're not real, I like it better when they sound like they could be. I feel the same way with horror movies, the best ones are the ones that seem like they could really happen.
@@TheOmNomGirl I agree with you, I'm a writer, I get it. But even simple acts and interactions could be interpreted different ways. Personal experiences are much more intriguing, at least in this kind of show. When I was a kid, I LOVED the show Fact or Fiction. I love the ryan is giving a platform for writers like this, but I'd still like to hear about someone's experience that could terrify and teach others🙂
@@Flanneryschickens when you go to the form to submit a story it says "fiction stories only please". Which is why I haven't submitted. Which is a bummer, I really wanted to share my experience.
The best scary stories are the ones that are not too outlandish to assure ourselves that it's fake. The chance of something spooky being a possibility in our realm of reality is the scary part. Once you push it to far, like this Creepy Pasta ends up doing, you know it's fake and are therefore lulled back into security. Still, it's a classic CP.
I like that this series went from “is this spooky story real or not” to “look at this sick as hell old creepypasta”
Yeah, I understand why they left behind that old real or not format, but I would like to see them explore scary stories that are not very known. A spooky story isn't scary bc it might be real, but creepypastas like this or the smile dog one just aren't that fun imo

Lol, right? That was the point of the story when I originally heard it I was like "oh, this is totally fake" hahah
They didn’t remove them cleanly, the point was that no one could survive that and yet they did

the russian sleep experiment is probably the first creepypasta i EVER read when i was younger. its wild how prolific it is
I know. It also my favorite
I read it because I was scared of the long term health effects of insomnia and I found it that way. It did not help
I read it when I was 10. Big mistake.
I was obsessed with how gruesome and vile the concept of the whole story was
Yep! I remember this from sooo long ago in the prime of creepypastas/nosleep/sixpenceee ! I miss being young and reading spooky stuff online tbh :( nothing compares anymore

As an insomniac who, at their worst, didn't sleep for 5-7 days at a time on average, I was super spooked reading the beginning of the story back when it dropped.
I was also like "wow, I'm doing pretty good"
I had to be tested for Fatal Familial Insomnia because of how bad my insomnia is. Luckily I don’t have it, but it’s absolutely a real thing that people do die from. The “anecdotal” claim at 1:45 is BLATANTLY false.
The Russian Sleep Experiment is the _perfect_ example of the fact that most creepypastas should really quit while they're ahead.

The Russian Sleep Experiment is a classic example in a story that started out with a really cool concept, but quickly devolved into just gore and disgust to make it scary, not realising that it's not actually scary, it's just gross.
Other than them being very zombie like, that pretty much captures how I feel perfectly
I agree. To me, and many I think, the scariest stories are the ones that are outlandish enough to make us uncomfortable or scared within the realms of reality without pushing it too far into the safety zone of "this could never happen."
@@DanielleVlog365 These kinds of stories, in my opinion, honestly mostly only ever work when FULLY illustrated.
Example: Junji Ito manga. The concepts and plot points are so outlandish and out of this world but the art and the execution are just so well done you can't help but genuinely be terrified.
I like to think of it like a "point of no return," but for creepypastas it's a "point of definitely should return." Like, dial it back, kiddo, you had a good thing going. It's like the writers assume every story needs to escalate, but they've already got a solid concept, so rather than finding a good stopping point, they shove in some Edgy™ nonsense.
And completely impossible
Can we appreciate the illustrations for a sec? It is stunning and so on point. It makes these series so much better :D
Yes! and they are actually creepy (at least to me haha)

I can't believe I was actually one of the people who believed this was true. There are a lot of horrific experiments that happened during world war 2 both in Japan and Russia so I didn't even question this when I heard about it haha
Honestly so true….
@@kmarine8852 I suppose I was under the impression that those were already the most well known countries to perform experiments during that not just because of what's known in history but also from all the conspiracy theories. I was just stating it as a fact that Russia and Japan did that too because I honestly only found out they too conducted experiments when I was in my early 20s
Here’s the thing, while this is an experiment it sounds like the Soviets would try, if it were real they would’ve all been dead by the time the door was opened given how multilated they were at that point. So that’s what gives it away as fake to me.
same in the usa an canada
"So the idea is that our madness is quelled when we go to sleep"
College students: (chuckles) I'm in danger
Sleep is basically the bodies way of flushing ur brain of all the garbage that's built up in it during the day, sorting things out of short term memory into long term memory, and repairing the body. So you might not turn into a flesh eating monster but lack of sleep can definitely fuck your shit up.

@@Nightbird8272 the fact that it was at 666 only 16 hours ago and is now at 1.2k has me awed.
During the story what took me out of it was the remaining survivors. There were 5.
1 was eaten while still in the chamber.
1 died while being removed from the chamber.
1 died while being operated on, which is why they allowed the last two to be awake during the surgeries. So it should be two remaining prisoners by the end, not three.
One didn’t die when being removed, he was the one the most injured. It never said he died it just said he bled out almost instantly but that doesn’t mean he died
@@ThatOneFur “Bled out” is parlance for “bled to death”, which would imply that he died from the blood loss.
didn't they say he bled out then was operated on?
How can he even utter the words "Beef Boy" knowing that he decieved and betrayed the one who bestowed him that name, the one who only sought to bring him knowledge and happiness

Ryan's serious narrator voice and Shane's anime protagonist hair, reading a scary story? My day has been made
This story is anonymous? That’s so wild, seeing how popular it is online. Surprised they wouldn’t come forward to get writers credit
Lots of creepypastas originate from the somethingawful forums in the early-mid 2000s when online anonymity was a lot more achievable. I think this one is from that time period? Plus it’s not really about the author and more about the story. I think it would immediately break any possible suspension of disbelief if you knew where a ghost story came from. The secondhand/ oral tradition nature of it makes it harder to prove or disprove
If they cant prove it no one will believe them anyway
@@bingbingbongbung oh how I wish that were true
I have wondered that too. CallMeKevin is responsible for a well-known creepypasta that got popular for being so bad it made people laugh instead of being scared but then again he was able to reasonably show that it was indeed him who wrote it, maybe the person who wrote this just has no way of proving it, or just isn't "online" enough to care lol
Wikipedia says that snopes traced the story's origin to a creepypasta website and the exact user that created it, who did it in response to a post that challenged users to create the "scariest urban legend". Its not a real story.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Sleep_Experiment
I remember thinking this was actually a thing that happened, but I didn’t know the details. The idea of Soviet Russians preforming an experiment on the effects of weeks with no sleep is believable, the events following is when the reality of it starts to fall apart
For some reason, when I’m reading stuff like this alone, it creeps me out. When I’m watching Shane and Ryan read about it, though, I don’t feel as scared, if at all. (That doesn’t mean I don’t feel disturbed, though.)
they help break the immersion! they interrupt the flow of the story and give us a breather for a moment from the scares. it prevents you (I'm using the general you, I don't mean you specifically here) from getting as scared as quickly as you would on your own. they're distracting, essentially lol but in a good way
“Lock your doors” As if I would ever leave them unlocked.
@@agnez112 that desperate huh?

I remember reading about this, but the image they always use was the long faced, pitted eyed creature that looks almost skeletal, and I looked it up: it was actually just a sculpture/halloween prop. Well done piece, but not real. Wish more people knew about that. Edit; it’s called Spazm, made by Morbid Enterprises, and was sold at Spirit Halloween.
I remember the sculpture, and I also remember the picture of it that the author used.
Look at these two, just carrying on and making jokes as if the professor isn’t dead.
I guess Shane didn’t know the professor so he gets a pass, but Ryan? Excuse me? How DARE you
Im sure he has to at least know of him, i cant imagine Ryan wouldn't have complained a time or two about our fluffy jelly meister.

@@charlieburton4701 Watch the latest episode in its entireity. I cried in public

Honestly the biggest thing that tore me out of immersion is that so many organs were exposed in this filthy room and the test subjects somehow didn’t die of septicemia within a few days.
The thing that bothered me is that the subjects covered the windows with feces and paper, and the scientists waited three days before entering. They went three days without knowing what was going on in there, and it's supposed to be an experiment?
Right??? Every time someone tells me a story with this ridiculous level of mutilation and gore I'm just like "so they didn't die of shock within hours? So they didn't bleed out or go into septic shock?? Really???"
@@serazvi5387 Yeah it works better on kids...
@@meelabee4400 i know right 💀 the moment you can no longer see the subjects of your experiment is the moment you pull the plug and check on them...
Honestly it is kind of a funny image of just a dude chilling out with all their organs and blood vessels just.. on the floor, hanging out. Maybe playing some Uno. I like to imagine them just having a slumber party except all the snacks are just.. their own flesh. Gossiping, kicking their legs in the air as they talk about their crushes, and tearing out their internal organs.
As an insomniac who's stayed up for 3 days and a few hours and the worst it got was me becoming terribly 'illiterate' misspelling words and being stupid rather than being crazy.

To add onto that, it’s also crazy that we live in a world where we’ve conducting horribly unethical experiments on others enough that people genuinely question if something this horrific was actually done.
@@KitKat_630 I mean, we live in a world where ww2 and the cold war happened - and all its inhumane experiments - after hearing about what they used to do, l would be surprised if a "how long can humans stay sane without sleeping" experiment wasnt made.

shoutout to the former kgb agent who quit the kgb before it was even formed
(Story takes place in the 40s, the kgb wasn’t formed until 1954)
This isn't scary, primarily because we know quite well what happens when you are deprived of sleep for days on end, as the person who set the record was monitored at all times by the record keeping authorities. Basically, you just become extremely irritable and paranoid, and get angry at anyone for doing anything.
The world record was set and documented, but there have been studies keeping mice up for longer killing them for inexplicable reasons. The persons brain was functioning as if asleep, hallucinated with all of his senses and experienced paranoia that lead to his irritability. The experiment was meant to keep them up far longer than the world record and thought to be humanly possible, probably trying to create sleepless soilders as the US tried to make soilders who could communicate with computers. It's intresting
@@DpDepresso it was meant to keep them awake for a month or whatever, right, but in the story, it didn't. The crazy shit in the story started happening well before the world record was hit. World record is something like eleven days.
@@ewanball The story has many plot holes this happens to be one of them. You also have to consider the record holder didn't use stimulant gas to stay up. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ You know it's a story
This isn’t scary bc of the absurd gore/violence and superhuman abilities that the patients somehow live through. They should’ve quit while aheas
And hallucinate. They also hallucinate a lot. This story just… I’m sorry, when I first heard it (it was framed as real, turns out it’s actually just an old creepypasta), I figured it wasn’t real. Not cause I was smart, I was and still am a dumbass, but I figured it was for one reason: if there was a gaseous stimulant that can keep you awake for days, wouldn’t more people be using it? In colleges, in workplaces, in more experiments, even in torture? It just feels too obvious.
i love that the person writing this story didn't even consider infections would kill these people sooner than anything else
edit: i can't believe the number of people getting mad at me for calling out how extremely unrealistic it is and how certain errors ruin the immersion. ik it's a story. it's just not a good one. that's all.
Yeah, the timeline for them eating their own flesh just ruins this for me. Now, if they'd taken one of them out for some other reason and he started eating his own flesh in front of the horrified staff, then fought them with superhuman strength and couldn't be sedated while they were trying to stitch him up, I could have stayed with that. Then the infection can be what helps him along to his grave while he's asking to be put back in the chamber.
I mean, I'm not a doctor, but I think they would have died from blood loss before infection had a chance to set in, depending on how fast they did the self-hacking-and-slashing, but if it was done gradually, then yeah, infection would have deleted them pretty fast
edit: the second they opened the chamber, around 11:00 or whatever, that's when my immersion was ruined because yeah no that's not how the human body works even a little bit lol
Yeah like they would've died from blood loss and some food poisoning from the dirty water and raw meat
Yep
Or dehydration?
Longest I’ve gone without sleep is 3 days because of a constant panic attack. Ended up going to the hospital and they gave me a pill to calm down. It helped a lot and now I’m okay. Still, worst 3 days of my life

You could definitely say the professor was . . . Intrigued to some degree
I took psychology too my senior year of high school and I didn't necessarily do a project on the Russian sleep experiment, but my project had pictures as the background that gradually got worse and the last slide had the picture that is well known for the Russian sleep experiment and when I was finished my teacher said "Thanks for giving me nightmares with that last picture"

The description of prisoner becoming slowly and slowly more deranged as the experiment goes on, to the extent that they receive information from/become these ancient demonic creatures that articulate their situation in such a terrifying way has scared the shit out of me since I first came across this story. The idea of Shane bringing 5 kazoos to this experiment has removed any sense of terror that I might have felt while watching this story and all I can think to do is thank you
I really appreciate shane in this series, his unbothered nature and his humor make these videos palatable. I don’t think I could watch these if it wasn’t for him.
This is actually the first one I watched because I thought it was just Ryan telling made up stories and nothing against Ryan but the two of them are like peanut butter and jelly, so much better together ❤
@@ilovemyhomefries honestly ikr, one without the other is like a house without a fucking roof,, i need them both
shanes russian accent is actually really good
love how the dude who wrote this was like "how do i make this even creepier.. i know, I'll set it in russia!" as if the cia and mk ultra arent the creepiest shit any government has ever done irl
Yeah, don't forget Operation Condor and COINTELPRO
@@lordskeletor481 right, like the entire history of the cia is way worse than this creepypasta lmao
@@hijibaka I don’t think this is the original version of the story. I think the original author set it in Russia because it’s set during WW2, and honestly this is something the Soviet Union would do if they thought about it.
@@Kaiserin it's really not. but if this did take place during ww2 then the ppl theyd be doing this to would be literal nazis (bc the red army, not america, is who beat them) so who cares lol
what was the tweet like “nothing will make u sound more insane in your real life than knowing like 5 things the cia has done and fully admitted to”
Shane and Ryan’s hair both represent their personalities/ how they talked through the episode
I remember in a neuro class hearing about some teen who decided for his science fair project he would stay up as long as he could. with the help of energy drinks and friends i'm pretty sure he only lasted 11 days. a bunch of scientists got in touch with him because there isn't much sleep related research out there. tho I will say we didn't hear about any hallucinating or cannibalistic urges
Oh, there were hallucinations and micronaps
No cannibalistic stuff though
A radio host decided to stay up for 11 days. He needed people around him at all times so he could stay awake.
Isn’t this the shit that nearly Charles Lindbergh?
(The whole staying up thing).
These story reeeeeaaaaally goes off the rails to the point of not being scary anymore. Great ep tho, the illustrations are top notch!
Truly. I first found out about this through a video by The Infographics Show. It was cut shorter than this and I genuinely thought it was real, not just a creepypasta.
Why does Shane look like a disheveled British rock star who just came back from an awards show afterparty to do an interview with Ryan
Hahaha, this description is on point. 😆
i love how Ryan always voices the ads in the same voice he uses for the stories, accompanied by the music, the ads feel very ominous
Dude who draws these pictures? They remind me so much of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. Whoever does them, you have my absolute thanks
in the description it says mollie ong!
My thoughts exactly
My brain: Time to sleep
Shane: *Hold my Ryan*
Wtf is up with so many bots on youtube lately?
I mean if anything this story should make it easier to sleep right?
I remember I had friends who believed this and for some reason the thing that got them to stop was when I told them the KGB didn't exist in the 40s. Of all the crazy things in this story that was the thing that made them stop and think
For Ryan, my daughter says everyone who cooks for themselves is a "home chef". :)
The gas turned them into ghouls.
Fun fact: that image that is commonly used for the Russian sleep experiment actually became my sleep paralysis demon and has been for years now
Oh noooo😳 I’m so sorry you gotta deal with that😬 that’s so scary):
Man, every time I hear anything about sleep paralysis it makes me more and more glad that I don't have to experience it
Fun fact: The image most commonly associated with the Russian sleep experiment was taken at my house!
@@vivianeallen3334 i hate to ask but could you please elaborate?
@@AviendhaR Sure! My family used to put together a haunted house for the neighborhood every Halloween. We collected props from hospital catalogs, online sellers, and conventions before there were Halloween stores. This particular picture was just a Halloween prop we touched up with paint and took a photo of for our website which no longer exists. Sorry, the story's a bit anticlimactic.
The art in this series is always so pretty and terrifying I love it sm
“This video contains content some might find disturbing…” ✨DISH GRANTED✨
If Shane had been there, they'd all have had kazoos and the story would've been a lot better.
Viewer discretion is advised...... THIS EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY HELLOFRESH :D
I already know I hate this story, but I still immediately clicked on this because of how much I missed this show.
yeah 😭😭 i think its maybe the worst creepy pasta but man i missed these lads
Hate? Worst? Nah it's one of the best! The highest role that fiction can achieve is inspiring introspection, examination of the self and the universe. Stories like this one are human in that they can show us truths about ourselves. Fears, desires, moral evolutions... Some fiction is just for fun but some aims at the heart of what humanity is, what/why humans are, and in my opinion the latter is the better work and the enduring art. Sorry if it's too gory for you and I truly hope it doesn't make you too uncomfortable, but I hope that you can also find positives in stories like this, especially because the boys make some pretty funny jokes to lighten the mood. I'm not saying it's like the Mona Lisa, but compared to silly stories like "working out" or "holidays" or "voice in the walls" which are good fun but really of no substance, "sleep experiment" is better because it inspires thought on the self. Best wishes :)
@@guidetoanything It's not too gory. It just thinks it's deeper than it really is. But the guys did make it more interesting.
@@owlintrenchcoat that's true, the ending is a bit of a faux pas with the final words of the guy, they really should have left it more ambiguous. Not very scary after that part. But I agree, the watcher boys make every story really fun :)
@@guidetoanything except that the amount of sleep we need and its effects sre extremely well documented. i dont mind like introspective stories. but like its hard to engage with a story when basic facts are completely thrown out the window.
Note: the intestines are attached to the body, they are not ramen trapped in a bag waiting to be ripped open
Edit:
"The mesentery is a fold of membrane that attaches the intestine to the abdominal wall and holds it in place." From the Mayo clinic.
Shhhhh but spooky
I thought they do hang out when your belly is split (not so loosely but outside of your body nonetheless)
I honestly thought that if the muscle and flesh were not torn in the abdomen, it would be possible for your intestines to fall out
During surgery, the intestines can be removed from the body. Surgeons have to put them on special hooks to keep them out of the way because they squirm around like eels (it's because of the contraction of muscles), and when they are finished they stuff them back in the cavity (more delicately than I'm making it sound) and the intestines wiggle back into place themselves. Those flaps of membrane that hold them in place are not necessary to live, but they are there to stop them from just spilling out when injured, so... yeah.
@@shmorgasnapnettleborp9109 Yeah that's what I was thinking about 💀
It was pretty spooky through most of it, but the "we are what you sedate into silence and paralysis" bit just made me laugh lol
It was only a matter of time! Great start to a new season.
I'm still kinda bummed that all the stories are now fictitious. The real experiences, like home invasion story or the guy whose former roommate seemed to be in a downward spiral, those were the most interesting.
Most real life horror experiences just end up being a person with mental health issues tho and when you’re allowed to see beyond the constrained view point of the narrator (like when you learn that it was a real experience with real people) it just becomes sad honestly. Like with the roommate one, I was just angry that the friend didn’t help him at all. Horror relies on constant fear and anxiety, which stories that are /just/ realistic enough are perfect at.
I agree. Whenever I get towards the end of one of these videos and something is said that makes it totally clear and obvious it's made-up, it ruins the experience for me. Even when they're not real, I like it better when they sound like they could be. I feel the same way with horror movies, the best ones are the ones that seem like they could really happen.
@@TheOmNomGirl I agree with you, I'm a writer, I get it. But even simple acts and interactions could be interpreted different ways. Personal experiences are much more intriguing, at least in this kind of show. When I was a kid, I LOVED the show Fact or Fiction. I love the ryan is giving a platform for writers like this, but I'd still like to hear about someone's experience that could terrify and teach others🙂
Have they said they will all be fiction from now on? I thought people could still submit their own written stories (real or not) to be used
@@Flanneryschickens when you go to the form to submit a story it says "fiction stories only please". Which is why I haven't submitted. Which is a bummer, I really wanted to share my experience.
The best scary stories are the ones that are not too outlandish to assure ourselves that it's fake. The chance of something spooky being a possibility in our realm of reality is the scary part. Once you push it to far, like this Creepy Pasta ends up doing, you know it's fake and are therefore lulled back into security.
Still, it's a classic CP.
Ryan at 18:00: “so, are you scared?”
Me literally traumatized: YES WHAT THE HELL
My mistake was eating dinner before listening to this 🤢🤮
@@H0N35TAbe im eating some mozzarella rn this is great
@@H0N35TAbe im in bed about to sleep
Well, either way, this is one hell of a way to start a new season of “Are You ScArEd?”
This was my first creepypasta and to say it scared me is an understatement
Now I can see the silliness of it
