Not much use to us here in the UK... we don't have a zombie problem - they are all kept in the houses of parliament

Also learn how to make fire with no tools like getting wood and making embers then putting the embers in hay and start a fire

ok, has anybody here ever actually been in a zombie outbreak? i think not. zombies dont exist. however, they are pretty good intertainment.
Dusk Shadows says: Oct 22, 2012. 12:59 AM
And no that's no prank!
Dusk Shadows says: Oct 22, 2012. 12:56 AM
Dude have you read the news lately there is this guy who is making a zombie like army and they eat the flesh off people
Plo Koon says: Oct 28, 2012. 12:08 PM
uh huh. sure. heres a thot. if he was howd he get them to not eat him
Dusk Shadows says: Oct 28, 2012. 10:32 PM
Well yeah i didn't say he was a smart evil scientist
Plo Koon says: Nov 2, 2012. 6:01 PM

in that case, he couldnt hav made mor than 2 or 3, and i hardly think that qualifies as an "army"
farmerboyk says: Oct 15, 2012. 3:21 PM
Actually, there was a zombie outbreak in some city. It was just people in costumes though but it scared the living daylights out of people :D
Plo Koon says: Oct 15, 2012. 4:34 PM
that is the most epicest prank
farmerboyk says: Oct 15, 2012. 5:46 PM
Totally :D
Dusk Shadows says: Oct 22, 2012. 12:58 AM
Great job i hunt many things being a vampire (read my profile for more details)
but I've never hunted a zombie by the way i don't think zombies are smart enough to run after people since half of them won't have heads/legs to run after you or see you
Plo Koon says: Jul 29, 2012. 10:01 AM
twinkies!

if i snap there neck (i do ninjutsu) wil they die and ombies probably will get problems with scavangers insects flies and general decomposing not to mention that the muscle will be stiff and and there blood no longer liquid even further imobilizing them a big deal might be the stench after a few summer days... and its not just uncomfortable i have helped getting a body out of a crack in the rocks that was there for 5 hot days i thought i would die
lmsvv says: Jul 20, 2012. 7:44 AM
Dear God, One you are a Terrible liar, Two I highly doubt authorities got a civilian to help remove a dead body, Three you can barely spell or use correct grammar, Four All these facts combined considering ninjutsu was developed so that the practitioners would be Intelligent, athletic and good at deception I highly doubt you actually do Ninjutsu, But Props for spelling it correctly.

That's the problem you see, i'm faster by myself and others will only slow me down...... loved ones should be forgotten and all emotion should be fully concealed. The only thing i would need is a safe haven, my 357., and my 22. rifle i've tested myself and the longest i can go without eating is 9 days and 3 hours after that i begin to vomit.

Message to zombie in the first picture: Nice hoodie!

Also, when seeking out people, find your nearest military or national guard base. they'll probably be the best suited to help you. A note on places to hide, go to Colorado or New Mexico, and find a ski lodge. no way a zombie getting up that hill. Head to another continent if possible. Down Under would be good.

We get zombies here in Australia as well, tho. But if you do come here, there are plenty of islands to hide on if they do follow you. Zombies can't swim. Only problem coming here would be bringing your weapons and foodstuffs in through Customs. It's illegal to have any firearms here without a gun license.
TimmyMiller says: Oct 29, 2011. 3:43 PM
what if fish get mutated, eh?

p.s. if it's an zombie apocalpse, i highly doubt that people will be worrying about
gun licenses, if they do then well... no comment.
timmycutts says: Oct 29, 2011. 7:01 PM
First, just because the fish are mutated, doesn't mean that getting to an island is out of the question. You just use a boat (duh).

Second, while, true, no-one would take licenses into account during an apocalypse (unless there's no such event here), the requirement for the licenses makes them a rather inconvenient weapon, since there is a significant lack of suppliers in Australia (and the risk trying to get them through customs).
TimmyMiller says: Nov 9, 2011. 2:40 PM
if they are mutated to a point then a boat wouldn't help much.

p.s. what about mutated kangaroos or even more terrifying... mutated kuala bears

:P
p.s.s. serious about the kangaroos.
timmycutts says: Nov 9, 2011. 10:04 PM
we already have mutant koalas. they're called drop bears. large, vicious creatures that fall from trees and eat people. somehow, I don't think a zombie virus would actually mutate fish to the point where they could, for example, eat through the hull of a boat. if anything, they would simply become zombies like the humans, only they wouldn't last as long, since they don't have as much body mass to fall off and the water would slowly strip it as they swim. kangaroos, on the other hand, would be slightly more problematic. although, I think they may be more likely to moan "graaaass" than "braaaains", what with them being herbivorous and all.

I'd be more interested to see what would happen with zombie drop bears, actually...

also, hate to be nit-picky, but it's p.p.s. not p.s.s. (post post script rather than post script script). just clarifying.

Great guide man!
monkeywarrior says: May 11, 2011. 7:24 PM
to start i thought you were just going to be some nerd who was copying a game or something. as i read on i was going holy s##t this person actually has some pretty good legit advice. a few pages later i was like if there ever is a zombie appoclpse im going to ingnore that first advice and chill with this person. awesome and thorough. good job 8)
thealchemist16 (author) says: May 12, 2011. 6:44 AM
thankya very much sir hahaha i wrote this so long ago its not even funny but wow people still read it cool, yeah i read all the others on her and they all sai
"get food, have a shotgun, shoot them in the heaad" blah blah blah, they never were legit or anything you know so i thought id try and do one for real and i spose i did alright, i could go through and add some extra stuff revise a little, but i greatly appreciate the good review :)
Xthinker says: Apr 16, 2011. 2:45 PM
If you dont want to be stressed you could just kill yourself...
chewtoy1 says: Oct 28, 2010. 10:30 PM
most ideal stronghold would be an abandoned military bunker or nuke shelter
ofc zombie rule #1 is gather supplies stay in the hole and wait for things to blow over ... wait for 3- 5 months n the carcasses r rotted
chewtoy1 says: Oct 28, 2010. 10:27 PM
step 5 is enough to make urself killed or infected

fishing lines is a no no expect dead bodies on seas or rivers and for that fishes might get infected with virus

BraisedDuck says: Oct 18, 2010. 6:04 AM
umm a bit skeptical bout u saying that walking dead can't do even the simplest of tasks. example the zombies from left 4 dead or 28 weeks, though they can't sneak in a window, a large number can still bring down the door(and possibly the wall)
Katthe says: Aug 22, 2010. 10:11 AM
Akshuly, i think that you would have moar chance of surviving, if you keep moving. I think, that cargo vans with some modifications(spiky armor, bigger fuel tank) would do their best in that role.
thealchemist16 (author) says: Aug 24, 2010. 7:09 PM
yeah see this is where a diesel car. from there you can use alternative fuels like bio fuels which are usually easy to make. good way to keep moving and cheap and easy to make.
2Tfox says: Aug 23, 2010. 7:13 PM
if you run out of gas, try to refuel in an infested area, crash, a tire falls off, or can't get out of your van because the zombies are swarming outside the van, you're dead. and if the spiky armor severs the spine, there will be crawling zombies, which you don't want. they can hide in tall grass, pipes, and other places.
BearFist says: Aug 23, 2010. 5:51 PM
oh and i tend to become a mindless brutewho can break evry bone in your body even tough iam very young i am strogner then many adults but very hard to control if i feel threatened it will result in agression oh and wath do you do if annimals are infected as well such as birds or even rats... i think that the end
BearFist says: Aug 23, 2010. 5:47 PM
if you lack projectile weapons it might pay off to have long impact weapons like baseballbats preferably fast weapons like a sawed off broomtick about arm length with a spike in it to pierce skulls or to avoid getting stuck in a head just weighten the end to crack skulls i just watched the anime highschool of the dead and it inspired me to make anti zombie weapons one of them being a kukri knife securely taped to a 50cm handle and a rock gleud and then taped secuely o nthe end of a strong branch but its an ice plan but wy would you be in charge... is wath most peaple will probably say -.-
Boppo3 says: Aug 22, 2010. 3:49 AM
when shooting a zombie aim for its heart or head to kill it... never try to kill one by the stomach
Boppo3 says: Aug 22, 2010. 3:46 AM
i think the best weapon would be a pistol and a shotgun. i remember having seen a shot-pistol... a revolver that shoots 0.50 shot gun cartridges. anyway. it would be best if you had a grenade launcher, or a flaregun if you see a horde of them, shoot your flare far away from you... that way they'll be led away by the flare b
Trooper14 says: Jul 16, 2010. 6:53 PM
Its funny, most of the Zombie movies I've seen, no one thinks about armor. I was kinda thinking chainmail, like the shark bite armor. But i was also thinking of armor like Iron Man's, only not so technical, power consuming (unless u use solar power), and heavy. Aluminum is pretty light wight and in the hands of a proper metal worker, might make a pretty sweet, light wight, and tough armor. By the way maybe fire cocktails can use full as well, like fire grenades or napalm (which would be bitter, but don't think its availible to civilians). Flame thrower would be good to for killing zombies and desposing of bodies. As far as Zombies not being able to do much, i saw a movie that showed them learning how to use weapons. Plus sometimes the virus doesn't take long to over come the host, look at 28 weeks later. And the Flood from Halo who kill and infect at the sametime and being able to use the host imidiatly after, but that might not count since its a parasite, plus we would better off with normal zombies then fighting off hundereds of infection forms and dealing with "zombies", i guess they could be called, that not only learn how to open doors but learn how to use vehicals and weapons, they use or own knowledge against us!! Don't even get me started with Gravemind. If something like Flood where to happen, we probaly wouldn't last long unless we deal with it before it gets to serious.
kenexinator says: Aug 16, 2010. 3:12 AM
i guess you could wear chain mail and over that a sort of iron man armour that way you could lie down in the middle of the street and fall asleep ... hten when you get tired of zombies scratching your suit you could walk inside your house and grab a snack .... if you can take a few zombies jumping on you while you do so
