An unusual way to survive the Zombie Apocalypse...

What with increased talk of the Zombie Apocalypse, we were very amused by Doghouse Diaries' take on how to stay safe:


At the very least, there's a video game in this...
The small size of the toilet aperture is a little unnerving, though... Maybe I'm over-thinking this.

Post-apocalyptic bowling for charity!

There are many skills that you need in order to survive the Zombie Apocalypse: a strategic mindset; being handy with a shotgun; ten-pin bowling... Wut? Well, I guess it makes sense: You could knock down a few zombies and slow them down for a bit - plus those bowling balls are pretty damn heavy!


Anyway, in the latest round of The Nerdist's Celebrity All-Star Bowling, Chris Hardwick and his team of avid nerds take on the survivors of The Walking Dead's zombie horde: Lauren Cohan (Maggie), Scott Wilson (Hershel), Steven Yeun (Glenn), and Robert Kirkman (series creator and Executive Producer). The Nerdist team, in its various incarnations (the line-up changes weekly, except for Mr Hardwick), is undefeated - but will The Walking Dead's team put a stop to that?


Without wanting to give out any spoilers, I can tell you that the trash-talking, which is pretty rife in each show once the alcohol starts flowing, reaches new heights (or lows) in this particular episode...






If you like what you see, check out the other CASB videos at The Nerdist's YouTube channel... And next week, Geek & Sundry takes on The Nerdist! Oh no, talk about divided loyalties!

Fun-running + zombies = awesome

OK, so I'm not what you'd call a fit person, but this is an idea I could totally get behind... In the Philippines, organisers of a 5km race in the Laguna Province decided to spice things up by turning the race into a zombie-apocalypse chase!

I don't think the zombies in the chase were chained up, though. (Picture source: Reuters/Nacho  Doce)
