I was watching the news the other day and I saw that woman and the man who both got Ebola. They were treated with a new experimental drug by the CDC and were released back into society. It got me thinking, that is a new drug that was given to them, the side effects are unknown, and there they go back into society. Then I thought,"oh wow I bet that's how a Zombie outbreak could start". It just made my mind think.
As a kid I always thought if Zombies were to become reality it would prob be some kind of virus or bug brought back from space. I would think about it a lot as a kid to be honest. I would sit in school and just think about how much I would hate if something like that were to happen and I was at school.
So I was curious, what do you all think? What would be a possible cause of Zombies becoming a reality?
And while im on the subject I'll also mention that I do love Zombie movies/shows. I just wonder though, would Zombies really over run man that quickly and easily? I would think the first Zombie outbreak would quickly be squashed by gun happy citizens/law enforcement officials. But still, even if Zombies did over power man, how long could they possibly walk around? I would think it would only be a matter of a week, maybe two, tops before those Zombies decayed to a point that they were immobile. I mean flesh would start to decay on its own but then add insects that would help speed up the decay. How long do you think it is possible for a Zombie to walk around?

Well I just became paranoid to go to sleep.
Anyways, I think a Zombie could walk around for a week to two weeks tops before the body completely breaks down.

If an outbreak ever happened, thanks to pop-culture there'd be a lot of "experts" thinking they'd be fine...
They'd be dead in a week. lol

I always thought it would have to be a big thing and most likely man made. Maybe a cure for cancer or something that most people in the world would get that had an unexpected side effect of zombie people, spread through biting and what not.
Part of me would actually like a zombie apocalypse cos civilisation ain't great to me anyway but I'd suck to nearly die everyday. Maybe not then.

I usually entertain the discussion of Aliens or Big Foot or the Loch Ness monster...cause honestly, we really dont know whats out there. But we DO know damn good and well dead people can not and will not walk around eating people's brains. I seriously cant fathom how people are actually interested in something like this and truly believe it could happen one day.

Lol I really can't fathom such a thing like aliens that can't exist because they don't breath oxygen! Seriously man, cool it. It could very well happen, as you hear people eating other peoples faces all the time. Zombies don't have to be completely dead, I always think of it as an unconscious state, as the brain goes from human functions to I guess "zombie" functions, haha. I don't think it will happen, but anything is possible.

Most zombies movies are people who have been infected by disease and they get symptoms that turn them into brain eating creatures I prefer old school zombies personally

anything.....except Zombies I would like you to explain how Aliens could be real. Did I say Aliens were real? No I didnt...I said I entertain the discussion of them. There are hundreds of Anaerobes on earth alone. (Anerobes for anyone that doesnt know is a living specie that can survive without oxygen). We have proof on our own planet that things can live without the need for oxygen, why would it be so hard to accept that there *could* be something else out there? As for people eating faces, those are not Zombies...They're usually some junked up druggie on bath salts that are out of their mind. If this is your version of a Zombie...so be it. But Zombies is by definition a corpse that has been revived.

I'm not gonna argue with you man, I understand your side and I hope you understand my side as for it being entertaining to myself (much like how some people like baseball and others don't). Let's agree to disagree and move on. On your topic, I fancy the idea of some type of extraterrestrials out there in the world as well, but I would think maybe they would've said something about it by now, Area 51 rogue or someone.

Depends on the Zombie if they only walk and bite then they should be easy to handle, but if they can run and all then we're pretty much screwed.

What would be a possible cause of Zombies becoming a reality? Dead coming back to life zombies = 0 chance People being "turned" into creatures that are like Zombies (think 28 Days Later, World War Z and I Am Legend type) = 50% probability There could definitely be some sort of super bug that makes people aggressive, feel no pain, etc... that causes them to attack en masse. I can't see them being a pack or herd animal though. I'd think if this were to happen, they would attack each other right away also, not just normal people.
