Zombies!

[Tiger Wench]

What about people that couldn't swim before they were infected?  Would they just automatically learn the ability to swim?  Or are the zombies just not buoyant at all?

MHI advises the liberal application of shotgun at close range - decapitation plus skull crush all at once.    Decapitation by machete will also work if you crush the skull after. The animated corpse doesnt swim per se - it will sink (Dead weight, right?) and can then walk under water, but the dismembered pieces will float like traditional road kill once they are de-animated.

For a more in-depth review, I highly recommend Larry Corriea's Monster Hunter International and Monster Hunter: Vendetta. Monster Hunter: Alpha is out in September.  I got Jarhead to read these and he gave them serious thumbs up.
 
Who says you have to read non-fiction to learn anything new!!

Well see we are back to needing to know the crush depth of a zombie. 

We're dealing with some serious poop here.

If we don't figure this out then "fuck it, we're doomed".

Well if the zombie is wearing an old school diving suit it will be at around 100m.

You folks need to get serious.  Them zombies is dangerous!  We need some real ideas.

I know I wouldn't be trying to fight my way through the zombie army with a machete.  Let's say that they do act like the ninjas on the old Sunday afternoon karate festivals and attack me one at a time.  Yeah, I can kill them all, but I would be so close the splatter from the first would zombify me by the time I made it to the back of the line.  No thanks.

Always keep your lawnmower handy is the best advice.

Based on what? Dead bodies don't sink in water, they float.  I call bullshit

You're a pappy little spit fuck, aren't you.

You're like a giant... cock blocking robot, like developed in a secret fucking government lab.

Dead bodies float because gas builds up in them as they decay filling them with gas.  Zombies are just filled with hate and putrified blood and are able to fart out any excess gas so they sink enabling them to walk along bottom and create zombie sharks.  Do I have to explain every little detail?

[Buzz Killington]

Zombie sharks?  We are done for.

Actually Zombie sharks don't scare me.  It's the zombie birds that I fear the most.

I seriously doubt that a zombie could make it through shark infested waters.  Sharks eat carrion and carrion in motion would be an irresistable target for a great white.  And since sharks have tiny little fish brains, I doubt the zombie virus could affect them.  So maybe we can build a moat and fill it with sharks and then the zombies would be shark bait before they got to us...

You just gotta be smarter than the undead brain muncher - how hard can it be?

THIS! Its hard keep your eyes in front of you and your eyes in the sky at the same time. I don't expect a Zombie to be coming out of a tree for me but a fucking bird, to hell with that!

I don't know.  I consider myself smarter than houseflies and I still can't keep those annoying little SOB's out of my house.  What chance do I have of keeping a zombie out?
