Zombie -fantasy is really daunting because it is quite difficult to stop the undead, and their tendency to long for meat (or brains) or to bite new sacrifices of rage means that they also carry an unpleasant existential threat. No one wants to become a zombie, and the potential to turn around makes death with zombies even worse than simply eating alive. The success of the shows like "The Walking Dead" by AMC made people wonder: Does there really be zombies? There are different types of zombies such as Fungal infected monsters on "The Last of Us" And Bess Virus infected by the franchise "28 days later"But what about the real dead walking? Can the carcasses ever continue to act, even as they have fallen apart?

The Walking Dead's "Walkers" are deadly because they not only infect others with bites, but are difficult to defeat, requiring significant damage to the brain to take them down. It's great for stories telling, but let's see what some experts need to say about the real scientific opportunity to confront the Zombies on the Undead.

The short and sweet of it is no, zombies undead not and can not exist. Talking to Canada National PostAssociate Professor of Internal Medicine at McMaster University, Dr -Johnon Neri explained that "the brain requires constant uninterrupted blood flow containing glucose and oxygen" in order to continue to function in any way, which means that all those pedestrians with their organs are not possible. It does the spoken pedestrians, whispersincreasingly impossible, but let's say that The virus that caused the occurrence of zombies Somehow it keeps the brain going independently of all other systems of the body - could the dead continue to go even when their bodies began to rot?

To answer that, Livesciction He spoke to Texas -based Mortic, Melissa Under, who disintegrated the deteriorating details of how the bodies were falling apart. While the "The Walking Dead" zombies mostly mimic real decay states, she notes that zombies that have become totally dried, could not move anymore. Without muscles, tendons and solid skin holding everything together, the movement becomes extremely difficult. Perhaps that is the reason for their Zombie trademark, because as Urer said, "(...) If they started running, I think their legs would fly." No matter how funny it is, it's not very scary, so it's no wonder "The Walking Dead" has chosen to take some freedoms with the science of decay. She also noted that there is simply not enough inflated zombies in the franchise, given how the usual inflatable of the trunk is actually, but it may be for the better. A swollen zombie in the well was more than enough.

It is clear that The Walking Dead is impossible for many reasons, but there has been a real scientific discussion about the Haitian Zomba zombies, where the combination of herbs and a kind of hypnosis puts a person in a trance where they are foolish, controlled drones. The frightening practice of creating "zombies" was documented by Haiti visitors in the early and mid -20th centuries, although there is a doubt about the truthfulness of their stories. In Zora Neae Hurston's "Tell My Horse," She Reveals A Photograph of One Supposed Zombi, A Woman Who Has Been Kept in That State for Some Time, But Perhaps The Most Widely Known "True" Zombi Story Comes Fropolist. Wade Davis, Who Wrote "The Serpent and the Rainbow: A Harvard Scientist's Astonishing Journey Into the Secret Societies of Haitian Voodoo, Zombies, and Magic."

"Snake and Rainbow" was made in a film by Wes CravenAnd while it is definitely invented, it shows the closest thing we have ever received on the scientifically possible "zombie" on the screen. The dead can't go, but maybe it's the living we really need to look out for, anyway.
