opinions

[Shug]

Was wondering what was the mass opinions were on zombies being able to swim or walk under water?

[Mike.357]

I think if anything they would just bob around a bit until they sunk

[nightrunner]

I dont think it would kill them. It also depends on if they are classic slowmoving zombies or they are fast moving runners like 28days later

[BigK]

I think it depends on which zombies we're talking about. The more traditional ones aren't very coordinated, so they definitely ain't swimming

I agree with Mike, they'd likely bob and sink. The scary part is they'd be at the bottom of the pond or whatever forever.

Zombie speargun fishing sounds like fun.

Then when the zombie apocalypse starts I'm commandeering me a houseboat for a base camp. After I use the brother in law as zombie bait

I've been using World War Z as my guide for the walking dead lately; the wife bought the ebook for me last year and it was a good read. Interesting enough to get me to read it in a couple of days. According to the book they survive underwater once they sink and are able to travel the globe underwater. Kinda puts to rest the "island zombie plan".

EDIT: The "Alaska zombie plan" is still valid though. There is a good "Red vs Blue" public service announcement on that one.

Just be careful about dropping that anchor. According to the book the zeds would climb up the anchor line.

Zombies have too many holes to float. They'll fill up with water and sink in no time flat

A houseboat would be more feasible to navagate inland U.S. waters

[RichardR]

Lol I was thinking the whole sailing yacht thing myself, still think that it would give greatest chance of survival.

Learn to speak Canadian and go north. Zombies can't operate in sub-freezing temperatures. Plus, it's a safer way to purge the zombie population when they freeze.

Neither can I

I think I would rather deal with the zombies than a bunch of liberals. You can shoot a zombie.

I agree about the scary part! I think anywhere that there is a good alligator population would be cleaned out of Z's quicker than elsewhere. Florida, or Louisiana, here I come!

Well there's always Alaska. Plus I'm sure the new President of Alaska won't be a limp wrist. We'd just have to go to Canada to steal their women.

I can deal with liberal women. Good plan.

Just don't ever give them the right to vote, because if you do it'd only be a matter of time before it would be a hate-crime to kill the undead!

Naw. Just give them an AR-15 and they're fine...

I get my wife to be a little more conservative each year when I make her look at our tax return paperwork to see how much the gov takes out.

[BigK]

TMF, I read WWZ too, good read. The audiobook was even better. Different readers for different parts.

One of my favorite bits was the comment that the zeds were so dumb they couldn't get themselves out of seatbelts, so you had to be careful around 'abandoned' looking cars.

That place looks familiar.

favorite forum read yet! LOL

I had to quote this one, Mike. There's something sexy about her. Maybe it's the gun?

It's her gun. She needs to shoot it more. Can't get her to carry a pistol, even though she handles them well. She'll be an asset when the zeds show up
