Something bigger going on in Haiti? Zombies?

First of all.. are you serious?

(assuming you are let us continue)

Evidence 1.
Looting was very extreme after "earthquake".
Theory: People could of scattered for stuff to protect themselves from this zombie outbreak.
Or: Looting was so extreme, more then any other disaster before because of the huge amount of poverty.

Looting is always extreme after natural disasters of all kinds. This is because chaos has already been enacted, law enforcement have their hands more than full, and to make things easier near 100% of all buildings in Haiti were evacuated. Easy breezy.

Evidence 2.
Theory: if it were a zombie outbreak, forms of transportation would be shut down to contain. Which actually happened. To cover it up, it was said there was so much traffic there no planes could fly in or out. So all transportation was cut off. It was said there was only one airport, but there is actually five! list here en.wikipedia.org... Coincidence?
Or: I have no clue they would say there was only one airport. Its a mystery to me.

There was (possibly still is) only 1 airport strip operating after the quake. Not surprising that 1/5 is operational since 3/4 buildings were collapsed. With 1 airport delegating in and out traffic for nurses, doctors, military, red cross, political figures, and aid transport I do not find it impractical that they were at their maximum travel capacity.

Evidence 3.
Theory: The virus may of hit Haiti first due to its poverty and low sanitation. Its shown poorest countries are affected first and the most by diseases .
Or: there was no virus.

"The Virus"? What virus? The "zombie virus"?.... I'm glad you acknowledged the lack of evidence here.

Evidence 4.
Theory: One of the biggest death tolls in history to earthquake. People are still dying every second, its almost amazing how so many could still be dying even four days after a earthquake and no aftershocks.
Or: The disaster was so severe it still is killing people.

The death toll is catastrophic. People are still dying due to numerous reasons.
- Some buildings are still up but hanging on a thread.
- There are dead bodies rotting in the streets and presumably in collapsed buildings leading to a rise in illness.
- The injured cannot get the needed medical support.
- There is widespread starvation
- The death toll will continue to rise as they go through the rubble. Therefor many who died on the day of the quake will only be added after they are discovered.

Evidence 5.
Theory: It almost seems like a government cover up situation. Why would a government want to cover up a earthquake? Maybe to keep things calm?. The government is being very careful what they release to the media.
Or: They want to keep things censored.

I see no evidence in the media or presented here that concludes any sort of cover-up scenario. Keep in mind that communication was also devastated to the point where the president of Haiti had trouble reaching the United States in the aftermath.

Evidence 6.
Theory: How is only one section of Haiti being helped out? I honestly don't what to say about this, but it could be important evidence.
Or: Just to lazy?

This is a very slow process. There is no way to blanket the island in support unfortunately or it would be done. Thankfully the US is doing it's job in supporting Haiti in relief and doing it's absolute best in sending in food, supplies, medical support, and even marines (IMHO).

In conclusion I believe it is safe to conclude there is absolutely no evidence of zombies in Haiti. Factually there is no evidence of Zombies ever in history. The unfortunate fact is that there is a very large number of dead bodies in Haiti as a result of this natural disaster (none of which are still walking around). I enjoyed your thread and encourage the support to those affected by this tragedy.

This is a very crazy theory to consider. Beside why would the buildings collide if there is a Zombie outbreak???

I thought of this. What if instead of an earthquake a bomb went off destroying the buildings? It seems logical enough. I do not think its in bad taste for all who are saying that. Is it in bad taste to ask questions? NO. Our government has lied to us before, never rule out possibilities.

Right, there's this thing called the Richter scale...

en.wikipedia.org...

Honestly OP - do you think there is a possibility this has actually happened or is this just something you're imagining? I think we need to clear this up and you need to give a decent (longer, more elaborate) reply.

Yes, sometimes it can be in bad taste to ask questions - it just depends how stupid the question is. Imagine... did you find it funny when your mum got cancer? That is an example of a question in bad taste.

Perhaps you need to do some research on the difference between an earthquake and a bomb and their after-effects. Perhaps you need to stop posting.

many people are missing the situation here


no one is denying a earthquake happened

even the op realizes a earthquake happened im sure


what people are pondering is if the zombie "culture" in haiti has become some type of reality during this earthquake situation


many people believe the usa can cause earthquakes and other natural disasters, so many believe there could be more then one thing happening

so just because there is an earthquake, DOES NOT mean there are not zombies



on top of that, i find it disheartening to see such closed minds and such a lack of historical knowledge


people think george a romero started zombies, no thats not the way it is

they have had zombies in the haitian culture for over 4 centuries


zombies and the undead date back to our oldest scripts



i love how with todays technology people can believe in some insane things, like nanotechnology, or printers that can print out organs on scaffoldings and build organs in a lab with stem cells


but zombies are impossible



we have giant spirals in the sky from missiles, yet zombies are impossible even though they have been a part of our history in literature for thousands of years and we just found out about nanos a few years ago yet everyone on earth believe in those now

there was a thread not too far back that listed things that darpa was working on from darpas actual website

these things included surviving severe blood loss

biomedical research and all kinds of things that could be attributed to zombies


so not only do we have legitimate references to zombies throughout our history and culture, we also have modern day academia actually investigating and studying these types of situations


seems very interesting to me


even time frames on events, seems a lot of extra weird things are happening as 2012 nears closer


i am not usually the doom and gloom believer but with the pole shifts and sun spots, there is scientific proof leading towards something big happening, in all of the end of day prophecies, the undead are spoken of, along with earthquakes and other great natural disasters and other problems our world is currently facing


so personally with all these things taking place during a time many prophesied would be the end of the world, im going to keep a open mind


its one thing to be completely paranoid, its another to have an open mind

Bwahahahahahhahaha...

I have a theory about the OP.

1/ He has been watching too many "Zombie" movies.

2/ Drugs have affected his mind to the extent he actually beleives in Zombies.

3/ He has a great Imagination and is just sharing this with us.

4/ He's Dreaming and still hasn't woken up..

5/ Maybe he really believes that "Zombies" actually exist. Maybe they Do!

6/ He's joking with us and is having a laugh at how many people are actually responding to this thread..

I'm only kidding, so don't get your knickers in a knot and start going off at me. I'm not trying to offend anyone.

It's just funny that someone would think Zombies have taken over Haiti. Maybe they did?

Maybe Im a Zombie and I'm trying to Debunk this thread so me and my "Zombie" family don't get discovered..

Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! Zombies...

This would make for a great movie. And the location is proper for "zombies," historically speaking from the Voo Doo Texts.

I'd much rather it happen in Pittsburgh, PA due to a viral bio-weapon caused by a major pharmaceutical company, and I had to escape, with 6 item slots for inventory, and the "easy dodge" by pushing the X button when one got too close to me.

Ok, I've had my laugh and now, I'll ty and be a bit more serious.

This is exactly what I was saying too. Zombies didnt CAUSE the quake, the outbreak happened afterward and as a result. same as looting in New Orleans didnt cause the levees to break, but there was still looting.

well night is falling upon Haiti, god help them all

Seriously? I think you need to cut back on the zombie movies. Theres video footage of buildings falling and the earth splitting. Ah.. Youth now days..

The OP stated that he believed it possible that zombies kicked down all the buildings because they were badly built.

There are no zombies in Haiti ,there are only the victims of a devastating earthquake.

Stop looking for silly horror stories within genuine horror stories!

Thanks to Max Brooks, I think I will survive your theory.

lol @ so many people coming in saying the same thing completely oblivious to the fact its already been said and addressed


kinda shows how much is really read on ats and how fast everyone is quick to react and give an opinion

The no.1 and only piece of evidence we need to prove this theory wrong
is
The Richter Scale.

in continuing to play devils advocate the richter scale does not necessarily mean a natural earthquake


many things can register on the richter scale


one thing other then actual earthquakes are large scale bombs like an atomic blast so just because something registers on the richter scale isnt the sole thing to prove an earthquake scientifically since there are manmade things that can make the earth shake

It seems possible.... in what way is it possible?

You do realise that Zombies are not real don't you?


Everyone is entitled to an opinion, hell even one on Zombies.
But I'm pretty sure that an earthquake is what hit Haiti.


As i said, "The Zombie survival guide" was a great read... truly it was, but you do realise it's fiction... don't you?

That's like saying ALIENS aren't real

and the ZSG has alot of useful knowledge, should you ever be involved in a zombie attack

stay alert and you may outlive the LEGO's that did not read it

It does and it's a fantastic read... and after about 30 pages you definitely believe it.
I feel confident that i have a better understanding of basic survival and basic zombie knowledge.

stay alert and you may outlive the LEGO's that did not read it

Indeed.
Let's hope we never need the knowledge we acquired from Mr.Brooks eh?

noo, it cant be zombies - zombies comes from France and they don't eat black meet, for sure

(no offence here, just fact)

Actually zombies are possible, not that I am suggesting they exist but they are certainly possible if you consider the 'Furious Rabies' strain, infects humans by a bite and makes victims aggressive. If this strain mutated into a strain that caused perm damage to the cerebral cortex you would have your classic zombie, brain dead, aggressive & bitey zombie running around

Hey, what do vegetarian zombies like to eat?

Grrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiinnnnsssssssss!
