Article – Science finds the best place to hide from zombies

The “I told you so”s will be long and loud……

Farmhouses, fenced-in compounds, even the thick concrete of a penitentiary. Post-apocalyptic zombie fiction has taught us that these are good options for hiding out to protect your delicious brains from the undead, but eventually the zombies typically overrun the walls.

Fortunately, science has now provided a better long-term strategy for surviving the walking dead: Head for the hills. Specifically, you should probably get familiar now with the general location of Glacier National Park so that when it all goes down, you can start heading in that direction.

  1. As amusing as this is we are lending these kids real money to do this. They may already be Zombies.
    So one of those old blast proof micro wave buildings on top of the hill looks better and better. lol

    Roadie

  2. Yup…and 6-months from now there will be a huge controversy when we find out this study was funded by a Montana Real Estate Company.

  3. The last best place. Would love to see a brown bear wade Into a pack of walkers.

  4. I still say either the Brooks Range or somewhere near Deadhorse. Someplace where its cold all the time to freeze them. And then hope is isn’t cross species or anything when the polar bear population skyrockets from all the available food.
    🙂

  5. the way people act now, being so distracted with tablets, cell phones…..this is zombieland

  6. Wouldn’t Kodiak Island be the better solution? Populated by Brown Bear (larger Grizzly Bear), surrounded by ocean water that has killer whale population – sounds like a zombie’s nightmare for getting et. :^)

  7. I love the Dawn of the Dead remake. I know it wouldn’t have made nearly as exciting of a movie, but here’s what I would have like to see:

    (A) Survivors are trapped/secured within an impenetrable mall with ample provisions to shelter in place.
    (B) Said mall is located in Wisconsin; film is set in mid-to-late summer.
    (C) Zombies are composed of organic human tissue.

    Solution: Shelter in place until the sooner of: (1) zombies rot apart to the point at which they’re no longer a threat; or, (2) winter weather arrives and freezes zombies solid–at which point you can bundle up and dispatch of the zombie horde one-by-one with a hammer.

    It would have been a much less exciting movie, but there’s no reason every person within that mall couldn’t have survived to see spring.

  8. well, wouldn’t you have a higher risk because of all the people you would run into on your way there? i would think that this only applies if you were there already when the zombie apocalypse kicked off.
