You'll need a pressure suit to survive on Mars, since the atmosphere is less than 1% the pressure than on Earth. Very similar effects to being in pure vacuum would happen if you didn't have a pressure suit, with some added Martian dust in your eyes to make things a little worse. You would die in about 3 minutes, and then your skin would slowly expand to about twice its size 0_0

Love these. Thanks for sharing them with us. If the author happens to come through here - thanks for writing it. I need some escape lately. I go to the methadone clinic and as you can imagine - the people there aren't always of the highest caliber. Plenty are great but plenty more are awful violent people. A couple thought I said something to them under my breath and refused to believe me when I said that I hadn't said anything and had no reason to say anything. They insisted that I had said something about them and that they would find out what I had to say in the parking lot. I called the cops, they were indeed waiting for me but someone warned them and they left. Two days ago the guy tried to ambush me outside the clinic and I got into my car to lock the door just in time. He tried to open it and I nearly ran him over in my haste to get away. I filed a police report then and I talked with the clinic today. Hopefully I will have peace there from now on. I'm worried about another ambush situation and I will be vigilant about protecting myself. I have firearm that I have no desire nor intention to use unless I am in great danger and escape is impossible. All this over one ridiculous misheard noise attributed to me by these people. Still, going to the clinic is far better than chasing heroin and I'm grateful to be alive at all. Otherwise how would I explore with everyone here?

Lord Blackwood deserves and entire series of stories, wish there was more of these.

[@danyal6792]

Can’t wait to hear this tomorrow

[@yairmorgenstern416]

The ants are SCP-1942, which definitely deserves a higher rating than it currently has :)

[@TookieMacSpookie]

Blackwood easily is my favourite scp. Just a 100% space loving time traveling monster killing posh sea snail like gentleman.

[@youngThrashbarg]

The many callbacks to Apollo program in the dialogue are a nice touch.

[@TheDeath7ofsb]

the ants are marching one by one HURRAH HURRAH

[@TheDeath7ofsb]

@Juni Post and they all go marching down, into the craft, as, stowaways BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

[@zakfett92]

We slaughter termites just for fun... HURRAH HURRAH

[@radeonnovel7320]

Ahhhh thank you!

[@CosyMatt]

We need more Blackwood stories man. They are fantastic.

[@YeaItsMeMatt89]

Ayyyy!!! Blackwood's BACK! ALRIGHT!!! xD

“We went here exploring in peace, and here we will rest in peace” - a paraphrasing of Nixon’s speech that was prepared in case the 1969 moon landing failed :,)

[@H_P_Lovecraft]

When the SCP Foundation playlist reaches 69 *Ay, congratulations! It's a celebration!*

[@Illier1]

We need more Blackwood stories. He's just such a hilarious and lovable dude who stumbles his way into meeting every SCP.

[@nono9543]

Yeayyy! Everyone's favorite British slug is back!

[@ihatebalrog]

Another riveting tale of the dashing gentleman, Lord Blackwood! Bravo! Most splendid! These are truly the tales of amazement and wonder, a splendid choice for an evening entertainment! Now, what was it about the one about Lord Blackwood and the multiverse?

[@darrynmurphy4764]

Lord Blackwood, and the British galactic empire never setting on the sun

[@danielcraft1971]

Thank you for completing one final Lord Blackwood video, I enjoy these immensely and do appreciate your work on them. I am looking forward to whatever it is you have planned next.

[@SlamifiedBuddafied]

Ah shit, more of the crazy tales from our favorite anomaly. Lord Bad Mutha Fucka Blackwood.

[@FanAdict477]

"You know, that asteroid is too far from the sun for photosynthesis" "No. I have not been to Space myself." "So, how long have you been a slug?" "Why no. I'm not smoking the opium!"

[@A_C_P_L]

God I love the Lord Blackwood tales

[@chompy4573]

"How a small step for men, how great a leap for the Empire"

[@fireraider98]

The man, the mith, the legend 27, lord blackwood

[@actualturtle2421]

I love his "They should have sent a poet" moment.

[@flippinflitz2773]

Imagine a Rick and Morty style scp show. Like confinement but with more characters

[@somenerdpng]

Confinement is all we need, I want a show about lord blackwood

[@jerrodbates8480]

Haha that would be great

[@stilwells]

lord blackwood is unintentionally comedic gold and all of his insane adventures get some sort of laugh out of me

[@christopherholt6930]

Seeing as how a few stowaway ants escaped, I wonder if the scp foundation has found any Christian ants that are extremely intelligent since then.

[@mossadon]

Maaan, i LOVE these Blackwood stories. If you have a penchant for them too, may i suggest the books from which my name, Thomas Carnacki, comes. Written by the great William Hope Hodgson between 1912 and 1947. Carnacki The Ghost Finder is a great collection from which to start. For the Lovecraftians amongst you, HP "Borrowed" the idea of the Necronomicon from Hodgson's / my ;) Sigsand Manuscript. I can't recommend them highly enough. They will thrill greatly the fans of these Blackwood tales.

[@Hepponisme]

Nothing hold our english boy.

[@zerte4197]

Those scp tales are fuking awesome, lord blackwood especially
