And ravenous for humans,
The dead are rising from their graves.
The whole world is in a frenzy.
The infections are spreading fast
and it's overwhelming our defense.
Zombies have swarmed
and pop culture all throughout history.
They're often depicted as insatiable,
reanimated corpses,
or infected people spreading a deadly virus.
Either way,
they're never in a good mood
to come back from the dead,
and they've got a craving for
fresh human flesh.
Here's a few tips that might save your skin,
and your brains.
Hunkering down in a city
might look like a good idea.
You can live in the fanciest buildings,
It won't be hard to find supplies,
and you'll have access to loads
and loads of food.
That's what I'm talking about.
But, food and supplies aren't the only things
you'll be swimming in.
Soon enough,
you could be surrounded
by thousands of zombies.
A study theorized that in a about 100 days,
humankind would fall to the apocalypse.
There would be less than 300 human survivors
and the zombies would outnumber us,
a million to one.
So, get out of the city
and as far away from populated areas
as humanly possible.
From what movies have told us,
zombies are terrible swimmers.
Finding refuge on a boat would
be your safest bet to get away from zombies.
And, whatever you do,
don't head straight to the gun store
once the news breaks out.
Sure, it may seem like a good idea
to defend yourself.
But, tons of panicking people
scrambling to arm themselves
doesn't make for a good situation.
In a stressful situation like this,
there's bound to be friendly fire,
and a number of misfires.
You're hurrying to get out of town,
but there aren't any bodies of water nearby.
Where should you go now?
Run to the hills.
Unfortunately,
you're stuck on land,
where the zombies have a better chance
of having you for dinner.
The next best place to go
are hilly, mountainous regions.
Hopefully, you won't run into a pack of zombies
that were hikers in their past lives.
Most zombies will have a hard time
wrapping their heads,
or lack of a head, around unstable terrain.
Once you've found an elevated spot,
you'll want to find a building made of
concrete, brick or metal.
Anything weaker,
like wood, drywall or glass
could easily be torn down
by a horde of zombies.
Fortify all of the entryways.
Barricade the doors with furniture,
board up the windows,
and block off your fireplace.
Santa won't be paying you a visit this year,
it could be a hungry ghoul
coming down your chimney.
All is quiet,
the final board is nailed in.
You're safe to breathe a sigh of relief.
But, you can't hide here forever.
You're going to have to head out
and gather some food and supplies.
Get ready.
Fashion a suit of armor
out of anything you can find.
Hockey pads,
gloves.
Oh, and a helmet to protect your brains.
After all,
it's better to look weird and be safe
than to be zombie chow.
Likewise,
arm yourself with anything you can find
to protect yourself.
When in doubt,
always stay away
and avoid fighting the zombies.
You should only use your weapons
if they get a little too close for comfort.
Don't drive to the supermarket,
the loud noise could alert the zombies to you.
Again, you're going to want to
avoid densely populated areas,
so your trip to the store
doesn't turn into a bloody one.
Gather enough bottled water
and non-perishable items,
like canned foods,
to last you a minimum of a few weeks.
Stock up on important medications,
first-aid supplies,
and emergency supplies
such as batteries,
a cell phone,
and a radio.
Look for warm clothes
and bedding to keep you comfortable too.
It might get a little chilly
if there's no one around
to keep the electricity and heating running.
You're done gathering the supplies.
But, there are a lot more zombies outside
than when you first arrived.
There's nowhere to go.
You're going to have to get up close
and personal with these ankle biters.
You might be able to handle
one or two zombies,
but there are way too many out there to fight.
Try to hide until they leave,
or create a distraction.
But if all else fails,
you're going to have to
stroll with the walking dead
and you're going to have to smell like them too.
Camouflaging yourself in zombie flesh
or guts could mask your smell
from the zombies,
letting you walk right past them.
I think I'm going to be sick.
Researchers even concocted a perfume
to help camouflage against zombies.
They call it, Eau de Death.
Ah, how romantic.
It uses two chemical compounds
that a decomposing body produces,
putrescine and cadaverine.
The result, well,
smells like rotting flesh.
Maybe we could just arm ourselves
with bottles of Eau de Death
in a zombie apocalypse.
You made it out bite-free.
Now, let's wash off these zombie guts.
While hordes of hungry zombies
might seem far-fetched,
there are lots of other things
in the world that could eat us.
How would you deal
with a piranha feeding frenzy?
Don't worry, I have just the article to help.
