18 different countries, 12 different sports

and more than 400 competitors -

this is the Invictus Games.

But these determined athletes

share more than just a love of sport.

They've all served in the armed forces.

So how did this pretty unique sporting event come about?

It was actually created by someone you might've heard of -

Prince Harry.

Yeah!

You see, this prince was actually a soldier.

He served in the army for ten years, including time in Afghanistan.

Since then, he's been a passionate advocate

for his fellow servicemen and women,

many of whom return home from doing really difficult jobs

with injuries and illnesses.

So, Harry decided to create something that would bring together

wounded service-people from around the world,

to help them recover and set new goals.

He called it the Invictus Games

because 'invictus' is the Latin word for 'unconquered' or 'undefeated',

which symbolises the competitors' strength through tough times.

The first Invictus Games kicked off in London in 2014.

Then America hosted, which is why this epic video happened.

Hey, Prince Harry,

remember when you told us to bring it at the Invictus Games?

Careful what you wish for.

Boom.

Oh, really?

Please.

Boom.

Then Canada had a go

and now it's time for Australia to step up.

These are the countries competing here this year.

And these are the sporting events.

And just like the Olympic Games,

Invictus winners get one of these shiny things.

Now meet our Aussie Invictus team.

The 72 members have some pretty incredible stories.

This is where I train. This is my happy place.

Brigid Baker is a former army intelligence officer.

She has post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD,

which is a mental health issue that often affects people

who have been through seriously scary or difficult things.

She's now competing in athletics and powerlifting.

It's given me goals, something to work towards,

but it's also put me in contact with a fantastic group of people.

And there's Stewart Sherman, who was an army combat medic.

He also suffers from PTSD and leg injuries.

Although he doesn't need a wheelchair,

he's now found a passion for wheelchair tennis

and also archery.

And he's excited to show his kids some moves.

These games this year are going to be the biggest.

Sarah and Callum will be coming,

so it'll be good to be able to show them

what it was all for

and that I can actually hit a tennis ball over the net.

So, watch this space to see which of these incredible people

end up on the podium,

although it's clear this sporting event is about so much more.

What is the Despair Code? - Duration: 7:05.

What is the despair code?

Only since April has evidence of it surfaced on the internet.

Maybe it does not exist.

Maybe that is what they want you to think.

Their are a number of theories as to who created the despair code, and why.

Some have attributed the despair code to Lovecraft theory.

H.P. Lovecraft wrote about the Old Ones, evil beings or evil gods who inhabited the Earth in bodily

form, before the evolution of man.

The Old Ones are said still to exist in lairs underground.

In comparison to these beings, which pre-date the bible, and whose names are known to men,

the demons of Christianity pale in comparison.

Satan is like a cartoon character, next to the festering malfeasance of Cthulhu.

According to the Lovecraft theory, the Old Ones exert their influence over susceptible

human artists.

The artist introduces the despair code into his work, unaware of its source, and oblivious

of its detrimental effect on the public.

For example, a creative writer, published the following incantation...

loneliness + alienation + fear + despair + self-worth ÷ mockery ÷ condemnation ÷ misunderstanding

x guilt x shame x failure x judgment n=y where y=hope and n=folly, love=lies, and self=the

dark side.

When this litany is internalized, one source claims, the victim experiences extreme anxiety,

followed by depression, and psychosis.

Then, there is the programming theory.

A formula attributed to the Illuminati can be found on the internet, with detailed instructions

on how to gain Total Mind Control over a human subject.

It involves the use of hypnosis, to program human beings.

This process culminates, in the implantation of a control number in a subject's subconscious,

which is said to cause the subject to despair.

This numerical despair code, is 3223412.

Next, there is the U.S. miltary theory, which holds the despair code, is used to identify

a chemical gas for use on the battlefield, whose effects are not poisonous, but psychological

in nature.

It deprives the enemy of his sense of purpose.

High-brow medical officers call it, "Nietsche's Air", because Nietsche wrote that life is

meaningless.

Test subjects exposed to the gas, entered a deep state of depression within seconds,

unable to summon the will to speak.

Some broke down and cried.

"Blue Horizon" was the name of the only military operation, in which Nietsche's Air is said

to have been used in combat by U.S. forces, during the Gulf War.

The target was one company of the Iraqi Republican Guard.

The enemy turned on their brothers, in melee fighting among themselves.

The result was so gruesome, and the brass so worried about the press, that the gas was

not used again.

Finally, there is the governmental theory.

The government is using the despair code to keep the population under stress.

To keep the people from learning that we are still in an economic depression, whose purpose is to funnel

more money and more power to those that already have both.

Ochocinco & Terrell Owens Talk S--t Over Who Was the Better WR | Simms & Lefkoe S1E8 - Duration: 18:05.

- [Imitating Bill Belichick] "17 scrubs, 12 brushes. Put my socks on."

- Who's the better receiver sittin' right here?

Think about it. - Ahhh!

♪♪

Welcome to "Simms & Lefkoe." Simms the Oracle.

You were in fine form this past week.

- Thank you. - I'll be honest

social was blowin' up. - Whoa.

- "Simms, Bortles is benched! Bortles is benched!"

I think they wanna know— - Yeah. - Did you take joy in it?

Were you sitting at home goin'—[laughing evilly]

- Well, a little because I wanna go, like

"See?" Like, "Listen to what I say."

You know, I don't sit around and just

twiddle my thumbs and watch football.

You know, I study it hard. - Yeah.

- But I'm never happy to see a guy lose his job.

- No. - I've been there before.

I've been benched. I understand that.

But at the same time, I feel like some people

are starting to finally see some of the flaws that I've been

trying to point out to people for the last two years. - Yes.

- You and I both know, since this started last season

because we saw how talented Jacksonville was.

- You love the Jaguars. - I have a man-crush

on more guys on the Jaguars than any other team in the sport.

- Bortles is going to start against the Eagles in London.

- Right decision. - You mentioned that

it's the problem of the team. - Yes.

- "Simms & Lefkoe" is about solutions.

- We are. - Not problems.

And I believe there's something in the air that can fix this.

Love.

So, the relationship between the Jaguars and Bortles

off to a little bit of a rocky patch.

- Right. - I found an app.

- Yeah. - It's a good dating app.

- Sure. - It's called QB Cupid. - Ooh.

- Matching up QBs with teams that need 'em.

- I wouldn't trust you to matchmake anything. Go ahead.

- I have some steamy ones here, Simms.

- Right. Of course you do. - Hot and heavy.

- Right.

First one— Baltimore, Maryland. - Right.

- I think a perfect match for Jacksonville.

RG3.

- No! No! It doesn't work. Swipe the wrong way.

I don't know what to say.

- They already have two quarterbacks.

Why not let him go?

- They don't trust Lamar Jackson

to run the full scope of the offense yet.

The Baltimore Ravens look at themselves as a team

that can go to the Super Bowl.

They are not gonna trade away RG3 cuz they—

If something happens to Joe Flacco

RG3's gonna be the guy that comes in to run the offense.

- This one's got an interesting screen name.

GumpMan5, 25 years old, in a relationship, New Orleans.

Moved a little bit, so willing to move again.

- Oh, OK. - Teddy Bridgewater, Saints.

The most coveted backup of all backups. - Oh, that's right.

- They got Taysom Hill in New Orleans.

- Oh, that's right, Taysom Hill

who we haven't seen really throw the ball yet.

- Doesn't need to. He's incredible.

- He is, and he might be down the line.

But again, sorry, Jacksonville.

New Orleans is not gonna risk their chance

to go to the Super Bowl

with Drew Brees getting a high ankle sprain or getting hurt.

That's why they traded

for Teddy Bridgewater before the season

Jacksonville!

Before the season! -All right.

This one is spontaneous, creative— - What a profile.

- Ivy League-educated. - Right. - FitzMagic.

- OK... - Ryan Fitzpatrick. Come on.

- There's a glimmer there. - Oooh!

- OK? A glimmer. - Yes! Hot!

- You might wanna, like, save that tab, OK, or something.

-What? -Save that tab, like—

- What does that mean? - I don't know. Tab on the computer or something.

- Next one is a little vulnerable right now. - Right.

- Recently got out of a three-year relationship out of Buffalo.

- Yeah. - Didn't really work out

in the small, little rebound in Cleveland.

- Sure. Right. - Tyrod Taylor.

- That is the kind of quarterback that makes sense

in this situation, like Tampa Bay

where there's a third-stringer.

Do they go, "OK, we got somebody here

where our team won't fall apart if the starter goes down"?

- OK. All these people wrapped up in relationships.

I have one that is single. - Oooh.

- And I—It's one of those profiles I look at and go

"I don't understand why they haven't been scooped up yet."

- Yeah, I know where you're goin' already.

- I don't know if you do. - Yeah. - Little-known player.

- I bet. - Colin Kaepernick.

- Oh, yeah, never heard of him. Yeah, I mean, hey, listen.

You know where I stand on this argument.

He should've been a starting quarterback last year.

Should they bring in Kaepernick, just to see how he does?

Just that question.

- Should they bring in Kaepernick– - Just to see what level he's at.

- Sure. - Isn't it their duty?

If they want to win the Super Bowl, isn't it their job to go,

- I do, right. - "Let's just see"?

The point is this.

This is not running back or receiver or defensive back

where they just go, "Run to that hole,"

or, "Cover that guy."

This is about learning a whole offense

and learning all these rules.

And to ask a quarterback to come in at this point of the year

and then just take over and learn up the whole system

it's kind of unrealistic.

That's why we don't see it really ever happen.

- The Jaguars and a quarterback, looks like we're unable

to find a match at this time. - Right.

- But I would argue there is not a better match

than Terrell Owens and Chad Johnson as humans.

- Man, they're awesome. Right.

- I'm thinkin' the year maybe 2004, 2005.

- OK.

- Football season as a team, as a u—

[Door opens]

Speed. I bet that's Doug f--king s--t up.

- We're rolling. - Oh!

- Stop. - What?!

- What's up, man? Chris.

You doin' all right, man? - You gotta be kidding me.

- Congrats, man, congrats. - Appreciate it, appreciate it.

- The Hall of Famer in the flesh. - Yeah, boy! - What?!

- Woo, you look different. - You look golden.

[Laughter]

- There's a gold hue around you. - What's happenin'?

- You're looking good. - You told him to come up here?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - That's awesome.

- We're goin' to get McDonald's after this.

Who's the better receiver sittin' right here?

Think about it. - Who's the better receiver?

- Yeah. -What kind of question is that? - Well, I think T.O.'s one

of the top three receivers in the history of the sport.

- That's a f--kin' lie.

Let me tell you why. - Tell me why.

- He's not the better f--kin' receiver.

He had the better cards dealt to him

and took advantage of those opportunities.

- How do you figure that? - Can I finish?

- No, first of all, I'm gonna stop—

- Can I finish? - No, I'm gonna make you stop right there—

- But listen, listen— - Because I only played

with Steve Young three years. - Who? Who?

- Steve Young, three years, that's it.

- I don't care who you played with.

- Outside of that, you had Carson Palmer—

- Listen. - A Heisman Trophy winner.

- Look where I— - That doesn't matter! - I was in Cincinnati.

You played for the 49ers! - That has nothin' to do with it!

- The Cowboys, the Eagles— - They weren't that good, the 49ers, though.

- Wait a minute! - The 49ers weren't that good.

- These are awesome organizations.

When I came in, I was in the s--t bowl

according to everybody else. - Whoa!

- And I made the most of the cards that I was dealt.

- Bro, I could've played for the Cleveland Browns

and did what I did— - So basically—

-So don't tell me— - I'm not finished talking.

- I played with the Buffalo Bills— - I'm not finished talking. — And got off.

- I'm not finished talking. - I played with the Cincinnati Bengals with you and got off. - OK, Jesus f--king Christ.

- Was there one part of the game

any part of the game that you stole from each other

where you were like, damn— - I couldn't.

I couldn't do anything he did, honestly. - No?

- His DNA, his makeup, his skill set is completely—

I mean, night and day, completely.

The stuff he would do, the stiff-arming people

never f--kin' worked.

I would go the opposite way - [Laughing]

- Cuz I was more of a finesse player.

My favorite thing to watch T.O. do

him and Brandon Marshall

dudes playin' bump-and-run.

Let's say I'm tired— fourth quarter.

They have this f--kin' tug-and-pull where they invite

the contact and wait for you to get a hold and pull by.

How in the f--k? - Yeah, I know. I've seen it.

- I tried it in practice one time.

I'm right there in the same spot. Can't get off.

- So, you're on the Bengals.

What was the day when he joined the Bengals?

- I had lobbied for that big-time with Marvin, with Marvin.

I said—I asked Marvin, you know, a lot, man.

"We really need to bring T in.

I think it would help us offensively tremendously."

- Who was your receiver coach, God bless his soul, that year?

- Sheppard, Mike Sheppard. - Mike Sheppard at the time.

- Dealing with you two in meetings must've been amazing.

I would've loved to have been in a meeting with you two. - Nah, it was easy.

When I'm workin', I'm locked in.

- Yeah, I know you are. I know you both are.

- Yeah, I mean, again, people may think

that we're uncoachable based on the antics

and how we, you know, go about, but when it came to football

like, literally— - That's what nobody gets to see.

- Right, I know. - In the workplace, when it's time to work.

I remember he's tryin' to get me to slow down

on Fridays, remember?

- Yeah. - Man, Fridays.

Man, I'm out there balls to the wall.

- You know how Fridays are, you know?

- It's a chill day. - It's time to taper down.

- I know you were. I know. Right. - Man, listen.

- I'm like, "Dude."

- T was like, "What are you doin'?"

I'm takin' scout team— - Yeah, I'm like, "Bro!"

- And this is well into my 10th, ninth year.

I'm just out there movin'.

- Yeah, the perception is wrong.

- I remember just—

I'm just growin' up. Think about the Hurricanes in the '90s.

- Yeah. - And that's what I grew up

watching, so as a kid growing up

the game of football was about having fun.

When you're in the NFL and you misbehave or they do something

you don't like or you don't follow their rules

what's the first thing they take from you?

- Money. - Money.

- Money. Because that's what they think you value the most. - Right.

- But for me, the money was gonna come. - Regardless. - Money comes and goes.

It's gonna come regardless, which is why I never stopped

doin' what I was doin' because the money was great.

It was awesome. But when I didn't have any money, this is the way

I played the game of football, which is why I never stopped.

- Even with—and to go a step further

you talk about the Hall of Fame

and everybody realizes when you're in the Hall of Fame

obviously, there are financial opportunities

well outside of that, and so I was well aware of that

and I had some Hall of Famers even told me—they was like

"Man, you gonna mess up these opportunities."

You know, for me, I'm just like Chad, you know?

Money comes and goes.

If I had to, you know, if I'm put in a situation

where I gotta choose money over my family and friends

I'mma choose my family and friends all day.

And it was just, it was sad to see how

the media, again, they didn't allow themselves

an opportunity to know who we are as people

and they went into the perception

of who they thought we were

and again, we just went out there

and we just had fun with the game.

- It makes it more interesting to have the villains

to have someone to talk about. There has to be a bad guy.

- There has to be. - They have to, but it's unfair, like you said

because, again, how can you justify Tom Brady doin'

or sayin' some of the same things that I've done—

- Right. - Showing emotion.

- Right, yelling the F-word at the stands.

- Right. Exactly. I've seen him curse out coaches.

I've seen him berate his own teammates. - Yeah, right.

- But he's looked at and upon as a leader, a champion, you know?

- You know what, if I had to do it again

honestly, to restart and had to do it again

I'd do it the exact same way.

I wouldn't change s--t.

- So T.O. just surprised us. - Right.

- Like, we were hangin' out with Chad Johnson, in comes T.O.

Those two are really like brothers.

- Oh, I thought he came because he was like

"Damn, Simms is there. Let me go hang out with him."

I'm pretty sure that's why he came by.

- You think so? - I think so.

I'm pretty cool. - That's great.

Well, see, that's the truth he believes

but what he's saying, it's not really honest.

And sometimes we hear coaches talk, and we go

"That's not the truth."

So it's time for a little bit of "Coach Speak."

All right, Simms, first one, you're doin' it.

Marrone comes out and says, "I did it to try

and get a spark from this team to put everyone on notice."

That's the reason he benched Bortles.

- Right. - What's the truth?

- The truth is: "Ha ha ha ha!

The old 'spark the team by benching the quarterback' trick.

Uh, think they bought that one?

I mean, come on. You guys are watchin' the game.

This guy can't throw the football.

What am I supposed to do? No wonder nobody wanted this job

when they first tried to hire me."

- All right, so, Vrabel went for two

at the end of the game against the Chargers. - Yup.

- And after the game, he said, you know

"We put a lot of faith into our players.

Face the same situation, I'd like to think I'd do it the same way."

What he really wanted to say is

"Hey, guys, here's the truth.

I'm a linebacker, and I think like a linebacker.

I put two fingers in the air and I say, 'Get me the win.'

Did I want a slant from Mariota at the 1?

No. My OC, what are you doin'?!

You got a mobile quarterback and Derrick Henry.

Figure it out!"

All right, Vrabel.

- Doug Pederson, my coach of my Eagles—

man, he looks teary-eyed in that photo—

sayin', "Pressure's off, man.

We can go and play and have fun and just relax."

But what he's really thinking is

"Ahhh! What the hell is goin' on?!

We won the Super Bowl, and now I'm losing control of everything

and Carson Wentz can't do it all by himself

and my defense is falling apart! What the f--k?!"

So that took a lot out of me. - Oh, it should've.

- That one was a little personal. - I liked it.

- So, last week, we said that every coach should really wonder

"What would Bill Belichick do?"

And we made bracelets.

WWBBD? What Would Bill Belichick Do?

And we have letters here for all the coaches in the NFL.

So if it's a time-management issue, if it's salary

if it's comments— come on.

Put one in there for Doug Marrone.

- OK, fine. Sure. - We're gonna send these

to all the coaches in the NFL so that if they ever reach

a point where they don't know what to do

they can ask themselves, "What would Belichick do?"

- We're so nice. We're so giving here

at the "Simms & Lefkoe" show. - I'm not gonna lie.

I wore this home. - Right. - And this morning

I took a shower, and I'm getting ready for work today

and it actually made me uncomfortable. - Yeah.

Cuz I thought about how would Bill Belichick shower—

- Right. - And I legitimately took it off.

- Better than you. Better than you.

- [Imitating Bill Belichick] "17 scrubs, 12 brushes. Put my socks on."

It freaked me out. Like, it legitimately freaked me out.

- Yeah, I mean, he's a machine, and there's no doubt about it.

- Hi, I'm Peyton Manning. And you're watchin'

"Simms & Lefkoe" on Bleacher Report.

I don't love it, but you will.

- We are not even halfway through the NFL season yet

but you believe there are four teams

that have already punched their ticket

to get a bye in the first round of the playoffs.

You believe the top two seeds in the NFC, AFC already sewn up.

- It's done. Finito. - It's not even Week 8 yet.

- Like that? That was Pat Shurmur. Finito.

- That was great, but it's not even Week 8 yet.

- Yeah, that's OK. I'm good at this.

- All right. So who?

- The Rams, the 1 seed. Lock it in, OK?

The Saints, the 2 seed, lock it in.

- No other team can come and take a spot?

- I don't see it. I think they're a cut above the rest in the NFC.

- What about the AFC? - The AFC?

First-round bye, Kansas City Chiefs.

First-round bye, New England Patriots.

Lock it in. - 100 percent?

- Yes, they are the cream of the crop— - Guaranteed?

- In that conference, no doubt.

- Simms staple! Lefkoe lock! - Oracle!

- Guaranteed. - Oracle.

- Write it in permanent marker! - Write it in permanent ink!

[Needle buzzing]

- All right, Simms, you said ink. - I said ink.

Let's have it, bro. - You like 'em? NFC, AFC.

- Looks good, man. It really does.

- Thanks, bro.

- Just I'm a little scared of the Vikings and Kirk Cousins, dude.

- You can't do this. I just got this done.

- They got lasers, man. We can always update 'em.

It's like power rankings. You're all good.

- We've got ourselves a winner.

Tony "The Dragon" nailed the Broncos last week.

I'm gonna be honest.

I don't think he actually watched the game

but it doesn't matter because The Dragon is alive and well.

This week, the revenge of Brocktober

takin' on his old Texans.

Let's see who Tony takes.

[Sniffing] You smell that?

- Smells good, right? - It does smell good.

It's also the smell of success. Why, Tony?

Because the Broncos won.

I have $113.65— - Wow. That's great.

- With your name on it. - Thank you very much.

- Yeah. You watched the game, though, right?

- Oh, yes, of course I did. - And you felt good?

- They blew them out. That was a great game.

- I was sittin' there goin', "The Dragon breathes fire."

All right, so this Thursday,

the 4-3 Miami Dolphins with Brock Osweiler

head to Houston, the 4-3 Texans, and Deshaun Watson.

- I like the Texans already.

- You do? - Yes.

- Just by that? - Just by that.

- It's a big favorite, though, Tony.

It's 7.5 points. - 7.5 points, huh? Wow, that's a lot of numbers.

- You're gonna do another 250 of my dollars?

Because I'd like to come back next week.

- Yeah. I want you to come back next week, too.

- I know. - Uh—

- Final answer? - I'll take the Dolphins. 7.5 points.

- Ah, s--t. I really wanted you to take the Texans.

- You did? - Yeah, but now

you've already said it.

So you're goin' Dolphins? - Dolphins all the way.

Let me get a Dolphins— don't leave me hangin'.

Dolphins. - Dolphins.

- So, The Dragon—and I tried to convince him

not to after the shoot— - Don't you touch my Dragon.

I have him trained the way I would like to train him.

- So you agree with him? - He's my little Toothless dragon.

- Dolphins plus-7.5? - Yes, I do.

- Wow. - What, are we gonna listen to you? - Brock Osweiler against the defense

that's gonna want revenge? - Oh, I know, revenge.

No, it's too many points. On the road.

Yes, I don't think they're gonna win the game

but they're gonna cover the spread.

I'm ridin' with The Dragon.

- If you watched "Monday Night Football"

you may have seen this kid dressed up

like Odell Beckham Jr. - What a cutie.

- And it gave us the idea for "Simms & Lefkoe."

Next week is Halloween. - Yeah.

- I wanna see more kids dressed up

as players or coaches in the NFL.

I mean, I want pictures like this.

- I mean, that's a classic right there.

Actual, life-sized cheeks there for Andy Reid.

- He's even doing the same thing with his eyes

that Andy does when he looks at the play sheet.

Or little Ditka.

- Oh, Ditka. I love the vest. That is unbelievable.

The mustache looks real. Who wins in a fight?

Hurricane Ditka or Ditka?

- I'm takin' this kid. - I'm goin' with Ditka.

- So send us a picture or video of your kid

dressed up like a player or coach

#NFLKids, and we will put them

on the show next week for Halloween.

And your son is gonna be dressing up

as Phil Simms? Chris Simms?

- Nope, he's goin' with Thanos this year.

- Thanos. - The evil villain.

He's still in shock that the Avengers lost that.

That was groundbreaking.

- And yet he's dressing up as Thanos?

- Thanos was kinda cool.

My little girl's gonna be a farmer.

That's what she's gonna be.

Don't know what else to tell you.

- Thanks for participating in #NFLKids, Chris Simms.

- Sorry, you didn't tell me until today. Too late.

- For Simms. - Peace out, homies.

- I am the L-E-F-K-O-E. - Man.

- And we will holler at you next week.

Enjoy the games, everybody.

What If SCP 990 Was Real? - Duration: 5:39.

Hello internet - and welcome back to the most inquisitive channel on YouTube - Life's

Biggest Question - the channel where we happily serve the marketing division of the SCP Foundation

for no other reason than the invaluable dissemination of vitality important information.

What's going on guys - as per usual I'll be your disembodied floating voice Jack Finch

- as we wake up in our quarters with a pretty groggy head, realise we've been asleep for

far too long - and then wonder who the hell that weird guy in our dream was - and cautiously

ask the question, What If SCP-990 Was Real?

Roll the clip.

Before we jump into that though you know the drill by now guys.

If you're a fan of this video, strange men in suits, or just LBQ in general - then be

a dear and hit that thumbs up button, as well as that subscribe bell so you can stay up

to date with our latest and greatest SCP based uploads.

Also - why don't you go ahead and share this video with a friend, so you can cross-reference

your own dreams and make sure there's no funny business going on.

You'll see what I mean in a moment.

Here's an interesting question - a morsel of food for thought before we once again dive

back into the Foundation's archive records.

I'm sure the thought has crossed your mind before, but imagine this - what would happen

if the whole planet - within 24 hours - fell asleep and had the exact same dream.

Every single person.

There's a little over 7.4 billion people on Planet Earth - all of which understand

the strange importance of dreams, and are affected by them in some various shape or

form.

Imagine heading to work or school after a disturbed nights sleep - you tell your friend

and coworker about the oddly specific dream that you had last night, it had you pretty

shook.

They pause, silent.

They had the exact same dream.

So did your other friend, your teacher - your boss - the lady at the corner shop, every

single person that you speak to that day knows what you're talking about.

They saw it too, in their own sleep.

It's on the news - the anchor personally describes the same dream that you, and the

rest of the planet saw the last time you closed your eyes to sleep.

No one really knows what to do.

Government officials try to reassure the population that they have a protocol in place - but in

reality, they're just as perplexed as everyone else.

They saw it too.

What would we do?

How would we react?

Well, let me introduce you to SCP-990, and maybe this whole thing will make a hell of

a lot more sense.

SCP 990 is a Keter class entity, that as of the most recent protocol - has no known special

containment procedure.

Just like our theoretical dream that was posed previously - this skip has got the foundation

pretty shook.

990 generally appears as a human male dressed in a Cold War era business suit, think Mad-Men

- but a little more droll - who presents themself to Foundation personnel through dreams.

As far as we know, there have been no reports of SCP-990 appearing to non-Foundation personnel,

and the dream entity hasn't been encountered by anyone in the physical world.

The entity has been appearing to Foundation staff for at least 40 years - and just like

with our initial theoretical proposal - it's existence came to light after several Foundation

agents began discussing dreams involving a similar individual.

Numerous other agents reported dream-sightings that matched the entities description - and

whose classification was proceeded by the events of 990-07.

This is where things get interesting, because during the events of 990-07 - an unspecified

agent succumbed to the prophetic dream - describing the same man in the same suit, thoroughly

detailing a series of events that would lead to several tactical nuclear missiles being

launched into mid-Europe and eastern Asia, ultimately resulting in the extermination

of nearly 98% of the human race and the ultimate collapse of human society.

All of this had been outlined by SCP-990 while he was trapped inside the agents dream.

Now do you see what we're getting at?

Fortunately, as the Foundation record states, a Mobile Task Force was dispatched to eliminate

the initial threat that was alleged to begin the chain of events that the agent had described,

and the mission was a success.

The crisis was averted.

So let's slip back into our theoretical shared global dream - and say that every human

on the planet was warned about a specific event that would lead to the destruction of

the planet and the extinction of the human race.

Let's say it took - I don't know - three hours, for everyone to fully realise and understand

what was going on.

It's safe to say that no one would be going to work or school that day.

The world would grind to a standstill, trying to figure out and understand what the hell

to do with this new found prophetic information.

Life as we know it is going to end unless we stop these specific set of events, and

the clock is ticking.

The Emergency committee of the United Nations would convene, scrambling to come up with

a solution to avert this crisis.

Regardless of the Foundation's fictional involvement, the powers that be wouldn't

take an event like this lightly.

If every global world leader had the exact same prophetic dream that heralded the end

of the world, then - just like in the Foundation's report - the crisis would be averted.

SAS, Mossad, US Navy Seals, Spetsnaz.

Resources are plentiful, and with a small level of coordination, we'd save the world.

Job done, everyone can sleep soundly.

Or could we?

Because if the entire population realised that the saviour of the world was a *dream*

- then we'd be hooked.

Currently, we know next to nothing about the science of sleep and the unconscious brain

- but if SCP-990 Was Real - we'd be hooked on delving into the strange final frontier

- the human brain.

Well - that's how we see it guys - what do you reckon?

Let us know your thoughts in the comment box down below.

If you were a fan of this video, the SCP Foundation - or just LBQ in general, hit that thumbs

up and subscribe bell so you can stay up to date with our latest and greatest uploads.

Cheers for sticking around all the way to the end.

As always, I've been your host Jack Finch - you've been watching Life's Biggest

Questions - and until next time, you take it easy.

Jonah Hill Wants to Show What the '90s Were Really Like in Mid90s - Duration: 6:53.

-So happy to have you here. Congrats.

This is really an accomplishment

for the first time you directed and wrote a film.

It's a beautiful film.

-Thanks. Thanks for having me.

-Were you -- At what point of being an actor

did you think to yourself, "Oh, I want to direct one of these,"

or "I want to write one of these?"

-I have a very odd life, because I started off

wanting to be a writer/director my whole life,

and then I kind of accidentally fell into

this amazing 16-year acting career,

which has been an insane journey

and is an insane journey, as well.

But it took me a long time to figure out --

I hold the position of director in such high regard

that I didn't want to just be some actor

goofing off trying to do it.

It's something that matters to me,

something that's important to me,

and so I took four years, and I waited till I had a story

that rally meant something to me.

-It's called "Mid90s."

It's about a group of kids in the mid '90s.

They're skateboarders. That is the culture.

I have to assume that you were pulling for something

from your own life because of the amount

of specificity to this world.

Like, this had to have been something

that you experienced to some degree.

-Yeah, I mean, I was

a horrifically terrible skateboarder.

I -- I -- [ Laughter ]

I would film, 'cause I liked to tell people what to do,

and I wanted to be a director.

So it was the perfect role in that group of friends.

And I was unathletic, so...

[ Laughter ]

But, you know, the story's about --

It's not a biopic, but it's personal in the sense

that I relate to being 13, I relate to being lonely,

and I relate to something

giving you a community outside of your home

and a group of friends

and something to fall in love with.

And, ultimately, this movie is just about

a group of kids at a time

when it's you and your friends versus the world

and your family is less important than your friends.

-I've heard you refer to it as an animal-kingdom movie.

And I'm assuming that refers to just the pecking order

of kids at that age and how some are more dominant than others.

-Yeah, well, the kid's like 13, and then there's another kid

who's like 14 who kind of is the first one that talks to him,

and then there's kids up to like 18, 19.

So he's kind of figuring out how to play --

move around the chessboard and figure out how to fit in

and then move up.

And I don't know. It's just -- I've related --

I kind of feel like all of the characters in some ways,

because I feel like, when you're young,

in the '90s especially --

I don't know if you relate to this.

A big part of the movie is, like,

the corniest thing you could do is try or care about anything.

And that's a big part of the movie

is that none of them care,

and it's kind of showing off how little they care.

I mean, they're pretty much beautiful morons

and, essentially, like my friends and I were.

You know? Which is like,

they make so many mistakes, they speak in ugly vernacular,

there's toxic masculinity, homophobia,

things that are true to the time

and truly hard to watch

but I felt would be more offensive to be revisionist

and to change the way it was

than to hold a mirror up to how ugly it was.

So these kids do things, they endanger each other's live,

but at the same time, they deeply love each other.

So nothing's really black-and-white,

and the movie's not black-and-white,

and I hope, if I'm lucky enough to get to do this again,

to always create complex characters

that are challenging what our definitions of good and bad are.

-One thing that's amazing is, no matter how good

a script you wrote or how well you directed it,

obviously, it was very reliant on the cast,

and you went outside of just natural professional actors,

and you cast a lot of skateboarders

to be the actors in this film.

-Yeah, and I actually wanted to finish my point,

because I went astray for one moment,

which is just --

And that's totally on me, by the way.

-No, no. -Not on you.

But the idea is that

the corniest thing you could do was to care.

-Yeah. -And there's a kid

named Ray in the movie, a character named Ray,

who's played beautifully by one of the first-time actors,

Na-kel Smith.

And he tells this kid, in a way that's not corny,

and subtly, basically, he does care

and he's trying at life.

And I found, whether I was a young kid

trying to fit into a group

or the older kid trying to make

someone else kind of care a little bit,

when someone older takes the moment to show you something

in a non-corny, sweaty way,

it sticks with you for the rest of your life.

-Yeah. -You know?

And it's really a very moving story

even if, at times, it's hard to watch,

and it's funny, and it's crazy.

-It's really funny.

And I can't believe that they weren't actors.

I mean, like -- And you tell --

By the way, I know -- -They are now.

-They are now. -Yeah.

-I know actors, and once they started skateboarding,

I'm like, "Oh, that's not actors who learned how to skateboard.

This is definitely the other way around."

-So, I did, basically, everything to make

this incredibly difficult for myself.

-Uh-huh. [ Laughter ]

-My lead was 11 years old.

You're not supposed to work with children.

-Who's fantastic. -Sunny Suljic, he's brilliant.

The rest of the cast, besides his family,

played by Katherine Waterston and Lucas Hedges,

both brilliant actors, are first-time actors,

and they're all real skateboarders.

A lot of them are professionals, you know, or semiprofessional,

and, you know, skateboarding,

which is always constantly butchered in film.

So, I chose a subculture that doesn't want to be spoken about

and doesn't want the kid from "Superbad"

making a movie about them.

[ Laughter ]

I chose to work with children, which are --

Notoriously, you're not supposed work with children or animals.

And I also decided to take on the duty

of elegantly framing hip-hop,

which is another subculture often butchered on film

that doesn't want the kid from "Superbad"

making a movie about it,

about how this music is the emotional backbone

of my and a lot of people's childhood

and how A Tribe Called Quest is, to me,

what John Lennon is to my parents.

-Yeah. -Right?

And I guess I'm comfortable in discomfort

and comfortable with a lot of challenges

because it turned out to be the most beautiful, challenging,

emotional, incredible experience of my life.

And I am genuinely --

I have to come on here and sell [bleep]

whether I like it or not.

[ Laughter ]

I'm being dead serious.

I could be on here next time, like, telling you something...

-Wait! Wait a second! You've lied to me?!

-I love seeing you.

[ Laughter and applause ]

I love seeing you.

And I love seeing you, and I love seeing you,

and I love seeing all of you,

and sometimes I have to be on here on some bull [bleep]

and, like, this movie is my heart.

I spent four years making it.

I care about it.

I love it, and I promise you, if you go see it,

you will be moved and laugh and enjoy yourself.

So, thank you. Go see it.

What Is Massurrealism? - Duration: 6:23.

What is massurrealism?

It is the form of art rooted in the combination of mass media related art,

and surrealist imagery.

So, What does that mean?

Massurrealism is a direction in the arts whose style is based

on the dreamlike, subconscious imagery that  is being

highly influenced by the cutting edge technology and mass media of the present times.

That is to say, massurrealism merges the Human realities

of the modern Information Era with the deeply personal and evocative inner worlds of surrealism.

To fully appreciate that variety of influences and inspiration,

let's take a quick look at a few important moments that happened in art history.

At the end of the 19th century, some artists, such as those from the impressionists era

decided to do their work differently.

Instead of simply painting something to appear as it actually looked,

they began to express not only what they saw with their eyes but the realities they experienced.

Their works were vague and unclear, using for example, small, thin, yet visible brush strokes of color

that are very much like natural landscapes, but were intentionally painted to not be an exact replica.

Shortly after after this point in history, artists began to think less about the outside world,

and instead to express their inner world.

Artists such as the Cubists began to separate almost all links to reality

a "real world" served less as subject, and more as basic inspiration.

At the beginning of the 20th century comes Dadaism.

Dadaism went away from not only the physical way art is done,

but also further away from the style,

all the borders in the way of which art is thought about

and how art is made now no longer seemed to exist.

For the Dadaists, art was a way to challenge, and in many cases

purposely offend, the art establishment.

Manufactured objects became "art."

At that point art went from just exactly duplicating a subject,

to direct connection with the inner world of the viewer.

Dadaism led then to surrealism.

With seemingly no borders left to challenge, surrealists created expansive,

arbitrary art works filled with desolate landscapes, magnificent monsters and nonsensical objects.

Art was now almost entirely inside the inner world of the artist.

These strange images forced viewers to interpret art on their own terms

when confronted by the surreal and nonsensical,

each viewer will have their own unique interpretation.

After surrealism, abstract impressionism pushed art beyond representation into producing minimal art

an entire block of a single colour

could be sold to a collection for millions.

Art began to mean that any visual creation could be boiled down to just the "doing of art".

A massive canvas painted entirely blue,

or improvised primitive techniques with modern objects

sometimes even stepping on a painting.

Whatever it took to express oneself through the physical act of painting.

Every link between the outer world and the inner world was separated,

more now than ever.

With art at a crossroads, pop-art brought representation back.

Manufactured objects like the soup can were among many subjects and themes the pop artists used,

and at the same time, digital technology was starting to advance in leaps and bounds.

And with that, the final piece of the puzzle for massurrealism was in place.

So, in 1992

enter massurrealism to express this Information-Age art.

The term grew from a need to understand

the complex roots of the techniques

of artists at the end of the 20th century were creating.

In essence, every drama and advance and revolution and technique in the history of human art

was now up for grabs.

The inner world and the outer world could coexist,

expressed with everyday objects,

using the influences of the latest digital technology,

and traditional art techniques.

Artists today use many methods such as paint,

collage, photography, photo software, video software,

and even the communication methods of the World Wide Web.

Today you can see it everywhere in the journey of your life.

You see it in advertisements, movies, TV shows, and the internet.

But at its heart,

massurrealism is also about the real World of today.

We are all connected electronically

and can quickly send instant photos and videos,

all in real time.

Massurrealism as an art form

shows us that humans control the art,

and that art is still being made by a human artist

with a human message.

It is using these methods that

give the artist control over the creative work,

and not the other way around.
