    How does one survive in a zombie apocalypse with runners?

    In most zombie films we see slow lurching zombies. But a few bring us the "Runner" like 28 Weeks later.

    -What are the best ways to survive in a zombie apocalypse with runners like in the video below?

    The same way you survive any other zombie apocalypse: go to where it's very cold or very hot and the weather will take care of the zombies' brains for you.

    Armored front end loader. Can hit 45mph, has tires as tall as a man, air conditioned.

    The only way to cure zerg infestation is purification by fire, I would assume the same goes for zombies, It is now time to burn down whole cities -- cause who needs em anyway

    then you have a fire zombie running at you, not the brightest idea

    Fuel becomes a major issue with those and they are loud as hell so you will never stop being chased and end up trying to run over everything you see.

    Somewhere with extreme weather and a bottleneck leading to your door. Top of an apartment complex/sky scraper (Think 28days later, staircase scene). Or, like I always say, get a boat.

    I've already got dibs on Fort Jefferson, but I guess other people can come too

    I don't think zombies can survive temperatures of 0°C

    Cannibalism and living underground.

    The zombies shall fear my unending hunger!

    It'd just kill them. They can't regulate body temperature so their brains would freeze and the resulting damage would kill it.

    wait about a day barricaded somewhere and their bodies will not have enough lubrication to even move faster then a crawl

    wait 3 days and you won't even have to run from anything. problem solved

    Stay inside and laugh as the dead and dumb corpses damage themselves over the smallest of obstacles while the military cleans up in a couple of days.

    Can they be lured with sound devices? That would be the first thing I would try. There's also that scene from Shaun of the Dead where they try to mimic the zombies... can't seem to find it atm

    Seemed pretty easy. Eyes down, drag a leg and swing arms gently.
