Zombie Outbreak Theory
Nov 4 2009, 2:25 AM EST
The way I see it,a zombie outbreak can possibly happen through:1.As we all know,the Earth was created hundreds and thousands of years ago and life forms have been evolving since then.So,maybe there was a prehistoric virus that could toughen organisms and drive them insane or something but then the Ice Age came and when microorganisms face cold,they become inactive so the viruses were all frozen into the icebergs.So,if the icebergs collapse,then the virus would be active again and start infecting humans.Sounds unlikely but maybe it's this virus that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs? 2.Technology will become extremely advanced in a few more years and mad scientists are always out to find new ways to destroy each other.So,what's the current most powerful weapon in the world?Neuclar missles.So,these scientists just made them more and more powerful and a great neuclar war started.Once,the war finished,the powerful radiation still emmited and infected everyone,mutating them into zombies. 3.Some day,they will go ahead and destroy all the neuclar missles in the world so scientists began to create biological weapons and inject them into soldiers to make each one a modern Superman.One of these weapons were uncomplete but some careless lug or terrorist set it free and infected everyone. 6 out of 13 found this valuable.

Hey whats up man. I'm kinda new here but, those are reasonable theories. The second one made me think a little more then usual. Nuclear fallout can be a possiblity, but its proven to kill everything except, one of the most disgusting things, cockroches. They live through aImost everything! I was thinking something along the lines of maybe, Nano-technology. They use it to manipulate, whatever it is that comes into contact with. In what way? I have no clue. The government don't tell us much, ya know? But that much I know. I cant wait to see what the other applications are. You really want to know what i'm wondering if this ever really happened? Zombies? What kind or type of zombies will we encounter? Just your ol' run of the mill zombies? The ones we can literally walk away from? Or some sh-tuff like "I Am Legend", when these, things, blitz everywhere they go and just mutilate everything. They were "made" by our government. In the movie, ofcourse...

Couple things... the extinction for the dinosaurs in my opinion was a massive rain. notice how they are under layers and layers of dirt/rock/etc. the rain could make a massive mud slide.tip: use google for spelling. :P and bronn, if you read the book "I am Legend"... first off: they are dark seekers. more like vampires than zombies. Second: the government didn't make it. A scientist did. Dr. neville was looking for a cure to some scientist mess up... Third: prepare for the worse. Watch the movie 28 days later and 28 weeks later, and get that type of zombie into your head. That's the ones we really need to worry about. And in my Scientific opinion that's the most likely type.

I think he was referring to the OP.BTW, that was the lamest zombie movie I've ever seen. Not even the gratuitous nudity could salvage that one into a bearable film. Do you find this valuable? |

1. unlike many people think, A virus would probably not get frozen in an iceberg for very long. See, uunlike many people think, you still age when frozen, you aren't just kept in the same position. viruses are not really alive, but from what I have read, the DNA inside them could degrade, especially if kept since the ice age. While I don't know if the virus could preserve it somehow, i do know that they aren't able to use DNA testing to help them with the jack the ripper case, as very little is still left in its original state.2. Contrary to belief, you will not become a zombie from nuclear fallout. very small doses of radiation can mutate cells, but large doses from nuclear fallout will most likely just kill you. 3. The last theory is very possible, but given that a terrorist got into a top secret facility, I think we already lost. and bronn, if you watch mythbusters, you will learn there are two other insects that can take it much beter than the cockroaches. seriously, look it up. 1 out of 1 found this valuable.

"I was referring to the OP and all the folks who start these "I am the one who REALLY knows" threads and articlesYeah, I didn't think you were, 'cause of the friend request, but I figured it didn't hurt to check. No prob. @Inu: Agreed. I didn't really like the movie either. I'm just saying that the zombies were tougher than hell. Do you find this valuable? |

While I don't know if the virus could preserve it somehow, i do know that they aren't able to use DNA testing to help them with the jack the ripper case, as very little is still left in its original state.Viruses are in fact deemed non-living, they need a host whether it be animal, plant or bacteria( they affect them as well) a virus can survive harsh enviroments and wait for perfect time to come back. They always have some survival, the dettol advert 99.9% killed 0.1% survive they are sealed spores or something close to it can't be bothered to find the right name. Of all the viruses to cause zeds would be based around rabies virus as the virus causes death in humans only unlike in animals were they slowly die and attack other species and caue it to spread. On the upside water ways would be safe due to those infected wanting but unable to drink water. Good ideas though the goverment one to me seems a bit paranoid,but wouldn't put in passed goverment groups. Do you find this valuable? |

wow, I appreciate the valuable information that this crew has. i fell like if something were to ever happen, that we, would , all ,be on, the same team. Yea, sMarty, they seem more like vamps. but vamps suck blood, not mutilate people. they clearly live off the flesh of people, and no ive never read the book. just saw the movie. and "darkseers" is just a name, like, zombies. sure they only come out at nite, but they all look pretty messed up and i'd treat them all the same, two in the head. but what do you think of the nano tech sMarty? seems possible, doesnt it?

Im thinking a virus is the most likley they can control and change cell replication. A possible explaination is it creates and sends chemicals almost like pcp to your brain, some chemical to give you heightened agression and shuts down non-essential systems in the body also pulling blood away from the skin much like adrenaline. 2 out of 2 found this valuable.

so glad someone responded. Nano tech is somethin fierce. there are many applications for it. I first heard of it being used to "clean" dirty water resources like 8 years ago. now "they" can use it to manipulate human cells. "nano bots" are microscopic. small enough to manipulate even a virus cell. these bots are controlled by computer through electric pulses, its really hard to get onto, but im more then sure if you look it up on the net, you'll get a more clear answer on "how". Im really not trying to sound like a "know it all" cause im clearly not, but i have a huge intrest in these particular subjects. I like to study stuff like this because i believe it makes me aware, rather then paranoid, like my ex used to tell me lol. if you want, tooling, look it up and tell me wacha think, yea? my book is always open for opinions and insight. and im glad to know if this ever was to really go down, that there would be people to look up for help.

and to answer your first question tooling, people. people could administrate it. say like terrorist, or scientists, that work for the government, anyone can spread it. if they have the keys.

for sure agentaaa. what did you think of the whole nano tech theory? very possible i think. if "they" use nano tech, then "they" can controll it.
