SCP 723 is a spiral stone staircase, hewn from ordinary limestone, contained within a ruined church located in England.
When ascended, SCP723 induces rapid aging in the case of living subjects, and decay in the case of non-living materials. This effect seems to initiate after the fourth or fifth step has been climbed, each subsequent step inducing further aging or decay respectively.

A staircase that ages the people who walk up it is a staircase made for immortals. The staircase is connected to an abandoned church. With the religious connections that the church makes, SCP-723 could possibly be a staircase to heaven that only immortal beings such as angels can go through.
youre on to something
Maybe that one SCP nicknamed God? (I forgot the number) or the SCP-001 proposal that's an angel protecting the garden of eden.
@@Echo_the_half_glitch those 2 must know about it. I think you would not get allot answer from gate Guardian but maybe God might say something
@Echo I think is scp 343 I could be wrong though
The hard to kill beast or whatever his name is. That would be interesting.
I like how at the end, Dr. Bob walks out of the room he's in and heads down the staircase. More evidence that he is himself anomalous.
That impressed me too. Only Dr. Bob can go to the top and return.
Or is it just a staircase?
@@puro8054 He usually interacts with the anomaly at the end of the video, so it’s probably 723.
@@stardragon7893 not just at The end, did you pay attention on 567 vid when he had 323 on his personal desk, He is BIG name on foundation, and everyone other GOI should know that too, BIG name like pathos crow or kondraki and they Are in good view of foundation :)
Huh, I guess the D-class almost made it into his room up there
Now this is an SCP I definitely don't wanna encounter. Not only does it rapidly age things, living or not, but living things that do the aging just keep walking up the stairs even if they don't want to and are actually disinterested/basically uncaring about the fact that they're rapidly aging.
To be fair, there‘s nothing I can do about the fact that my own body is aging as we speak, so I think the skip has a mild memetic effect that mirrors the general acceptance we all have for the process of aging. I remember when I found my first white hair. Acknowledge, and move on.
I mean you wouldn't suffer so better than most SCP deaths
Nah I’d go back down
@@proudlywild1491 From what I understand, once you make it past the 5th step, you ain't coming back down no matter how much you want to.
What if you send in a non aging SCP?
Rapid aging is probably one of the most effective body horror scenarios for me, despite being one of the simplest: It's something that, ideally, you're going to have to go through, but at an unreasonable pace. I think what makes it particularly bad is that it's killing you, but by degrees. It's stealing TIME away from you.
@@mmecharlotte
Yeah, I hear you on that one. The added bit of trauma to that scenario is the loss of agency and dignity once you're back in childhood.
These SCPs just keep getting better and better. The accents were well done and the animation just keeps getting higher quality.
What if the loud family goes upstairs to scp-723?
@@joshwright4799 they will get very old and die if they continue
The music slaps
At some point Dr. Bob is going to be more realistic than real life.
The British accent was not well done 😭
Dr bob is so powerful that he's the only entity that most SCP's fear.
*…and the others should.*
... Nah
@@ericad528 Now indeed
Would dr bob be a Apollyon or Thaumiel class entity? Thats the question
Could we make dr bob an SCP? 🤔
He does such a good job capturing the realistic emotions of a human, and make them seem like normal people. It's crazy, every time I write a story, I barely could capture human emotions and rationality unlike Dr. Bob.
I swear SCPs are the most random things ever. It's why I love the SCP foundation though!
Lol try and explain SCPs and The Foundation to someone whose never heard of it. I found out the hard way that it's difficult af lol. I got a LOT of strange/confused looks 🤣 esp if they don't know what an "anomoly" is
@@amybishop666 So long as one is willing to delve into the platform and explore what it has to offer, you won't be disappointed. There are thousands of docs on the platform. Just make sure you don't go for 001, because there are only proposals. So if you imagine getting SCPs across to others is difficult, explaining the proposals is enough to make one pull their hair out. That is how I learned. 🤣
Speaking of random SCP's my sister had this silly idea about a random person, randomly sneezing and it would randomly cause a small nuclear explosion in random parts of the world and decided if she could make that into an SCP...I thought it was crazy at first but just hear me out...
@@ajakks6551 just admit it was your idea. Its fine. I mean the ideas shit but its fine
@@lillegoman No the idea wasn't mine and of course you would think it's stupid because I thought so too but then I thought to myself "The sneeze couldn't have been just random it could have to do with something microscopic or completely on a cellular like level" but i just humored the idea and left it at that feel free to believe what you want.
Petition for Dr Bob to make a whole SCP movie. What I'd do to see a 1 hour animation made like this
My man, let him do what he wants to do. Though may be one day that might be possible.
@@mchanz3584 i mean hes just asking, its not like he's required to do what the commentor says
This isn’t enough for you? You people are so greedy…..
he would probably have to take amultiple month break to work on it
SCP: Overlord
All this horror and the thing that hit me the hardest as a Londoner was the "spending 10 quid on alcohol"
"Don't grow up too fast, or else you will miss out on everything" Someone once said that to me, and this SCP anomaly proves that saying. Dr. Bob, you are a genius my guy!
The British accent was a really nice touch in the narrative. Great job as always!
I would say it was a _little_ too stereotypical though
No such thing as a British accent. I know what you mean though.
You Americans and your ''British accents'' 😂
theres no such thing
shamk
@@Badookum @Catraphilus Astra when people say british accent they mean any accent from england or wales (scottish and irish accents people can tell apart). I'm not american but i won't learn to differentiate 20 separate british regional accents just so y'all will calm down about bRiTisH acCentS. No one will, because who cares.
723 is perhaps meant to serve as an allegory for the journey of life, a winding spiral staircase that is simply one-way; the way of all things to be born, grow old, die, decompose, and disappear. With the fact it is all in a non-euclidian spiral staircase that could rival SCP-087, and you have a staircase that theoretically goes on forever, but factually ends when the individual does; with the world going on without them, leaving future generations to ponder what awaits them in the beyond. Every Thanatophobe on Earth would shudder at this.
Great speculation!
Honestly, I would believe this
That sounds a lot like Junji Ito's horror manga Uzumaki.
@@theotherther1 In a manner of speaking yes. But what is for certain is that it is a human isn't gonna be found in spiralled, mangled heap.
Maybe depress people who wants to end their life goes to church and this is a mysterious stairs made for them by idk maybe the same being that created us & gave us life lol. So that’s why it was in the church & also it’s better then committing suicide?? But just a theory. It don’t make any sense 😅
This is a very interesting SCP with room open for further exploration.
*Question 1:*
What happens if a person enters the staircase from the top through the damaged tower roof and descends downwards towards the ground-floor?
*Question 2:*
Couldn't they just drill small holes in the wall at vertical one-yard-intervals in order to be able to push small exploratory cameras through them?
*Question 3:*
How about recruiting friendly SCPs, that are ageless and/or immune to time-related damage, as test-subjects?
yes these were exactly my questions when i finished watching the video... ashamed they didn't have a test segment i was interested in what could happen
what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immoveable object?
@@hotstepper6303
Following the Kopenhagen interpretation of quantum dynamics, two parallel realities might result from such a crash.
One reality were the immovable object would be moved by the unstoppable object and one reality where the opposite would happen.
That way, both objects would avoid paradoxical actions.
@@epaminon6196 yes i guess this is why scp foundation doesn't do such experiments
So what you saying we should shove able in there oh boy that's going to be hell on earth for the transport guards
I'm curious what would happen if they sent an anomalous person who is immortal up the stairs. Would they keep on ascending forever?
No. Despite that it's much bigger on the inside then the outside, it's never stated that it's infinite. It does seem like there's a top. Maybe that immortal would be able to walk up it normally.
This would make for a really good episode of an SCP roleplay series that deals with this theory
@@thinglet2478 What if it ends when time normally would?
They would age, but not die
@@Argo123_.0 In that case they can see what's at the top beyond the door and open it (Dr.Bob's home)
This video is about a staircase where, as you ascend it, you get older. This is technically true for every staircase in the world.
lmao
Im taking the evelator

@@Michael-um4kv don't wanna scp to get ya!lol
I do wonder what would happen if someone was airlifted on to the top of the tower and attempted to descend the staircase instead. Would they de-age into oblivion or is it even possible to enter the same staircase from any other way
Literally what I was thinking!!!!
it's weird bc his recent videos he goes in full detail about things but here theres no reason to why the people want to keep climb or have a calm demeanor to others dying
@@donovanwick9278 it's all part of the anormally.

I love how the girl was just able to walk on even farther up the stairs then the two boys. So girls do live longer then men, even on surpernatural staircases.
I feel great when Dr Bob uploads. 💪🏼💪🏼
Don't we all?
The kids even have the british teeth, its so accurate.
What the hell are "British teeth"? Don't people in other countries have teeth??
@@returntodreamcastle6810 Well it's a common joke that British people have bad looking teeth. So maybe he is reffering to the boy? But I don't really know
After a certain point in your life you just accept that you're going to grow old and it doesn't phase you any more and you realize the only way to go if forward. Sometimes that point is after five steps upwards.
Thanks for the video Dr Bob!

"No one ever made it down from this staircase"
*Dr bob casually walking down the staircase backwards*
Who tf is that guy
Well hes no one
what if the adaptable lizzard was to go up with a camra
Interesting SCP. It almost seems like a "stairway to heaven". As they ascend, they grow older. Reaching closer to to the top, to the supposed "afterlife" as they grow old and die. This SCP being located at a church, could perhaps be a connection to "heaven" or an "afterlife". The odd behavior of the people who enter the SCP where they feel compelled to ascend is also notable. Perhaps a metaphor to how some people would like to live forever. To be immortal or to fight against time despite how futile it seems. The calm behavior while they age might be related to how people become wiser with age and accumulated experience, where people might come to terms with how their lives are near their end. The one thing which might not be consistent, might be how the clothes don't age, but that might be a narrative loophole. A real shame that not much info can be collected from this SCP due to it's time-altering anomaly, meaning the tests conducted on this SCP is minimal as well. Either way, that's just my interpretation of it.
As biologist I find this SCP fascinating. Super useful SCP.
Send growing plants and pull them when they grow. Food will not be issue any more.
As scientist, what we have limited is time. We can't often test in large scale time with experiments. It's hard to do 100 year experiment when you can only one like 80 years.
Oh wow ive never thought about using it as a tool 😂
but age is reversed when you pull back
The price of making a tool to displace the plant would be horrendously exorbitant though, getting up ten times gets you a millenia of aging. Still, I would prefer paying an extraordinary sum instead of waiting a lifetime!
I really wanna see an immortal SCP being placed to walk up the stairs like the Little Girl or a self repairing SCP and know whats on the end.
I love the touch of his friend being able to go up more stairs since women tend to live more year, really nice touch
also what happened at 16:05, i think there's a little animation glitch there
Man I wouldn’t wanna age by some stairs it’s like waking up the stairs after some long drive
I like the attention to detail like how the flashlight instantly dies because its hours of battery were drained in a second, or how his wrist injury from when he was a teenager only really affected him decades later.
i wonder what will happen if you get on top of the church and then start going down the stair
@𝕊𝕖𝕖𝕜 hahahaha
Daily reminder: You're not useless. You're not a dissapointment. You're not dumb. You're not different. You're not compared to anyone. Because... You're loved. You're strong. You're smart. You're beautiful inside and out. You're the best version of YOU there ever is. and you're human. I know you're going through a lot of stuff right now but it'll be okay. This life is a long journey. In a journey, there are ups and downs. If you ever go down, it doesn't mean you can't go back up. Rest easy and give yourself a treat :) I love you very very much and I just want you to know that.💕And when you go back up, you have that space in your heart that can help others back up, as well
I feel like they should get an immortal scp like Cain to walk up the stairs and see what happens.
this scp kind of reminds me of the aging beach from old
FunFact quarter of all your bones are located in your feet. A cloud can weigh more than a million pounds.
Thanks for the tip
@@Human_traain wait what
I’m wondering, what would happen if you started from the top of the tower ? Like if you were transported to the top via a helicopter or ladder. Would it reverse the aging process ? Would it just be normal ? Could it be used to be beneficial ? Potential cross tests ?
Scp-682 walking upstairs 😅
That was my first thought, for them to test the stairs, or to at least see if there was anything from the top of the tower.
@@Pixel_Fox420 no Bc it Works also other way around, If start on top you Will end up at baby or newborn when you go down, pay attention always when you Have chance
@@Mrhade5 Um no, the stairs don't exhibit anomalous properties when entered at the top
@@arvinroidoatienza7082 ok
I love the stories you tell and animate in the beginning of your videos it makes them more intriguing and amazing.
“Everyone is in such a rush to grow up” - random person
723: it’s almost like I was made for this
These introduction illustrations are so amazing i sometimes forget i'm watching an SCP video! Phenomenal writing, Dr. Bob!
I nominate Dr. Bob as the best storyteller on YT. Thank you so much for taking these lesser known SCP's and bringing them into the light of day! Everyone follow Dr. Bob so he can make these videos forever!
Is the aging acceleration linked to the height or just the time spent
That is to say does walking every 3rd step add one year in which case a small flying drone might be able to move passed the steps without aging
Or is it after passing the 5th step just starts the accelerated aging so a D class could just moved to the 6th step, sit down and age to dust
The flies in the intro died almost immediately flying up the steps, so it's not just stepping that triggers the effect. It must have to do with moving up.
A drone would die instantly due to the aging
@@NotNochos not if they gave it a Uranium power cell.
@@coreym162
At our current level of technogy, that drone would be using a nuclear decay battery. Those can only provide reasonable amounts of energy for a few decades tops. Too short a time span to get further up than human test subjects without fizzling out.
My bet would be on a mechanical camera, made from gold, that takes pictures on long-lived analog film. It could be mounted on a compact stair-climbing robot (also made from gold), which draws its energy from a golden wind-up spring.
Gold is highly resistant to decay and wind-up springs made from sturdy material can store kinetic energy as potential energy for movement indefinitely. Given the right mechanical wiring, such a device could be programmed to climb the stairs and to take a analog picture every so often.
@@epaminon6196 if you are looking for a sturdy spring, making it out of gold probably wouldn't be wise as gold is relatively soft for a metal, though you might be able to use it to coat/plate the spring to protect it
Damn 1M subs, well earned Dr. bob I remember when you were at like 2k.
You made me realise he has 1 million. I started watching at 12k. This channel grew qucikly.
ohhhhhhhhhhhh dude thank you. i needed this right now
Just use a ladder to get to the top of the building, then get a really good flashlight and then just see how large it is.
Between you guys and SCP Explained, these always make my days so much better, even the hardest of ones. Thank you for your hard work!
I love your art style. I watch scp-explained a lot and both of yall have such a unique styles its cool to see different perspectives. This one in particular i like how you made them age, like the things you chose to emphasize made it really feel like they were naturally getting older. great job on this one
I was screaming the whole time for these people to add two and two together and turn around.
Keep uploading these awesome videos Bob!
That was a scarily accurate depiction of an English suburb
This is quite scary. It’s like your whole life is passing by everytime you climb it
Let's just ignore the scp for a second and talk about how this guy got half of the uk spot on
LOVE the twist at the end, dr.Bob was at the top of the tower the entire time!
Another masterpiece by Dr.bob . I swear he is the best on making those story's , keep it up Dr.bob we thank you !
YOU ARE AMAZING
you make the best scp Animations by far you are so talented
Every time the scp foundation founds an scp that haves a destructive power "throw the lizard at it"
The music is so good in this SCP, the quality just keeps getting better
As an immortal doctor once said... anyone want to take the lizard for a walk? Lets see how the unkillable does vs time itself
I don't think it would fit through the door.
I guess it would be for some reason immune to the urge to go further up the stairs.
To anyone reading this have a nice day
you too
Keep them coming! I actually replay all of them when cleaning since I already know what happens in the animation. I always look forward to your videos. Your voice adds a soothing element.
Dr. Bob is always somehow immune to all the anomalies, that dude gangster. Lol.
Day 2 of asking dr bob if he could kindly do SCP 3000. I know you don’t usually do the most famous SCP’s but I would love to see your rendition of it. I hope you will notice this before day 50.

One word:

What would happen if you make entry points into the staircase from the outside, and start halfway through? Could you find out what's at the end? Interesting.
Scp 723 is a Time manipulation or space time area who possesses the ability of age acceleration but the only thing is that Immortal being are immune to this effect
Was thinking about this earlier about why I love these and then it clicked. I loved goosebumps as a kid and id say these are quite similar formats
I wonder what would happen if something were to enter from the top of the staircase such as by being flown to the top then progressing downward?
I am curious what would happen if they used a ladder or something to put d class personnel up in the bell tower from the outside of the building and having them walk down the stairs
Petition for Dr. Bob to upload a video for April fools day revealing himself as an anomaly.
Yet another good one
Congratulations Dr.Bob
What happens when you start from the top of SCP 723 and walk DOWN the stairs? Do you age backwards? 🤔
looked that way fro mthe guy they oulled out
How would you start from the top, if it cannot be reached from the bottom?
@@_Killkor From the outside?
@@KBgamer2010 _"From the exterior, the site appears to be in a state of disrepair, including the tower which SCP-723 ascends; however, this damage is not visible from the interior of the tower, though the staircase is still visibly worn. SCP-723 also appears to extend further upwards than the exterior architecture suggests."_
In the document, as you can see above, it said that from the outside the tower looks normal and decrepit, including the stairwell. Only after you approach this stairwell from the bottom it ascends indefinitely, more than what the height of the tower would suggest.
From that we can expect that the Foundation probably already tried to make someone descend those stairs from the top of that tower, but it simply gave no anomalous results. The anomalous results only trigger if you scale up those stairs from the bottom.
It's a non-euclidean stairwell that bends time and space.
I guess it's a bit similar to how SCP-087 works, or the Spiral Path SCP-001 proposal.
Basically, if there's an end to this stairwell, it's not located in our universe, if there is an end at all, it might as well go infinitely god knows where.
I Mean it was shown that the d-class that was pulled they returned to normal so It can
I wonder..
Would this be a good SCP to help neutralize other SCPs? What if you make 096 walk up the staircase?
My theory:
I think yes but i don't think 096 will aging from 723
Maybe it ages but very slowly. Slowly enough to reach the top of the Tower.
I can't help but get excited whenever I see you've made a new video, they are great!
omg could you imagine and they are just compelled to keep going.. on another note you are an awesome story teller
as a person from england, i really like the accent.
Your british accent is one of the best i ever heard
I found a continuity error, wait so by the time he had the physical age of a 23 year old, the apple turned to maggots? So since he was 15 before, it took 8 years worth of physical age for the apple to decompose fully? Maybe the stairs have a different effect on fruits, but then again, wouldn’t the maggots of aged 8 years, meaning they die?
Another epic SCP video
I like how he said "in hospital," which is the correct way to say it in the UK.
this vid is giving me chills
