So there's a fictional universe called the "SCP foundation" and it's basically about a foundation that contains anomalies, such as SCP-096. SCP-096 (Or the "Shy guy") is an entity that looks human but with disproportionate arms and skinny malnourished appearance, but most notoriously a huge gaping jaw (like in this video). The reason he is called the "Shy guy" is because if anyone sees his face it will run to the person's immediate location. It's skeleton is indestructible and it won't stop pursuing its target until they're dead. Also he's like as fast as a bullet train and can rip through steel like it's paper. The 4 pixels are referencing a story of how SCP-096 breached containment. A photographer was looking back at a few pictures they took during a hiking trip. SCP-096 was in the background, only covering 4 pixels. Even still those 4 pixels triggered SCP-096 and caused it to go on a rampage.

Yeah but then you’d have to stay there forever because the moment you came back to earth it would chase you again

Depends if its range is planetary.

I would also want to know if it has means of reaching the ISS.

Just wanna clear something up real quick, they are not indestructible as they had almost a half half of their rib cage blown off during recovery, they just regenerate

Can it beat One Punch Man?

Considering it seems to be incapable of death while also ripping apart a giant lizard that adapts to hazards quite quickly, it could at the very least do some good damage

Wouldn't an easy way to recapture it be to have one photo, uber classified, be the "retrieval photo". Have a death row inmate stand inside the creature's pen and open the photo. Boom, recaptured

It sits around and cries for awhile before going back home to just sit around anyways. I can't imagine capturing it is that hard

Oh wow, I haven't thought about SCP in 10 years, it is strange that it's still going on.

It's a reference to SCP-096 "The Shy Guy"

A fictional anomalous entity that hunts down and tears to shreds anybody who sees any portion of his face, no matter how small or how far away they are and somehow has psychic knowledge of whenever an image of him has been seen.
