The undead apocalypse has begun.
Thousands of undead corpses
are chasing people on the streets,
eating their flesh,
and turning them into
new brain-eating creatures.
Humanity is on the brink of extinction.
But luckily for you,
we’ve put together a list
of the top 5 safest places for you to hide,
so you can wait for all this to blow over.
The undead are decaying human corpses.
And they're driven by their insatiable
hunger for human flesh and brains,
as pop culture has taught us.
They most likely turned this way
by getting infected with a strange disease.
And if they bite you,
you’ll get infected
and turn into one of them.
Fortunately, since their bodies are rotting away,
they’re not that strong or smart.
But they are very aggressive.
They'll do anything
to eat out your juicy, tasty brain.
Yummy.
So, you'll need to find a shelter
to protect your thinking device.
Well, If you want
a first-hand experience
of surviving the undead,
check out the ultimate survival strategy game,
“The Walking Dead: Survivors.”

the undead apocalypse?

And while you're doing that,
let’s go and find a good place to hide.
Here are the top five safest places to hide
during an undead apocalypse
The first thing to do
is to get out of the city.
Like any other infectious disease,
undeads will spread more quickly
in big and crowded cities.
A study conducted by Cornell University
found that big cities
like New York City
would succumb to the undead
in only one day,
while it would take the undead months
to reach rural areas.
So, start packing
your camping equipment.
One key tool you should bring
is a portable water filter.
You’ll always need fresh water,
and bottled water will be hard to come by
when society has broken down.
A portable water filter removes bacteria,
viruses,
and other pathogens from any natural
water resource you stumble upon.
Water can be a great defense
against these biting corpses.
Remember, their bodies are decaying,
and they don’t seem to keep
their former human abilities.
So it’s unlikely that the undead could swim,
especially through swirling water.
If you do manage to get on a boat,
make sure you load it up
with tools and equipment.
The fewer trips you have to take back to shore,
the better.
One essential tool
you’ll want on board with you
is a set of solar panels.
With your own power source,
you can cook,
boil water,
use lights,
and so much more.
But before you set sail,
make sure everyone with you is healthy.
An undead outbreak on the sea
would become an absolute nightmare.
In 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic began,
many cruise ships were stranded at sea
because they had infected passengers on board,
and no ports allowed them to disembark.
Some crew members spent
up to six months in the ships.
And with a surge of brain-eaters on board,
it’d be a terrible trip.
If you manage to get on a boat
and everybody is healthy,
you’re safe,
but not for very long.
You’ll run out of food
and drinking water at some point,
so head toward a deserted island.
Then you might be able to grow food
and find drinking water.
It shouldn’t be that hard.
There are millions of islands in the world,
and only 11,000 of them are inhabited.
Make sure you have a good set of binoculars
in your toolkit.
These will help give you an idea
if an island is already inhabited
without docking there.
A prison can provide you
with advanced security systems
and defensive equipment,
maybe even some food,
and soil to start a vegetable garden.
But you’ll need to find one
that's been abandoned.
Remember, the more crowded a place is,
the greater the chance that you'll get infected.
With thousands of undeads
attacking everyone,
it should be possible
to find an abandoned prison.
Lock yourself and your companions inside,
and equip yourselves
with defensive weapons and tools.
You might need them.
An excellent tool to have here
would be a shovel.
It's a quiet, effective weapon
that doesn't attract the same attention
as the loud bang of a gun.
And when you're not using it to battle the undead,
you can use it to start digging
that new vegetable garden.
The Cornell University researchers
found that the best place in the U.S.
to hide from an undead apocalypse
would be in Glacier National Park
in the northern Rocky Mountains of Montana.
It would take the brain-eaters
months to arrive there.
And when they do,
you can find places to hide,
and outsmart them.
Also, there are historic chalets
where you could stay
and establish your new home.
You could even start an orchard,
make traps,
and hunt for food.
But make sure you pack
an extensive first aid kit.
You still have to deal with
the natural hazards of the mountains,
after all.
And you’re a long way from the nearest town
for a supply run.
According to a study conducted
by University of Leicester students,
it would take only 100 days
for the undead to wipe out humanity.
But there would still be a few
other survivors out there.
The question is,
could you survive heading back out
into a world of undeads
to find them?
