zombie apocalypse
criver:
It all depends on the zombies. If they are idiotic like in HOTD then they should be finished in no time - I mean they follow the strongest sound - so you put some ultra-speakers in the center of town load everything with explosive play some heavy-metal through the speakers and when enough zombies get there you blow the place up...
kitamesume:
and then the explosion attracted MOAR zombies from the cities nearby and you've just screwed your self genius, lets see you deal with millions of zombies. oh wait, you don't believe zombies could reach in millions on a country that has a quarter of a billion of citizens, ok you're definitely screwed.
criver:
In fact attracting more zombies would be great (so you could kill off even more of them) ;D . However I don't really think that the zombies from the other town would continue walking towards the explosion - considering it's quite far and the explosion last for only a moment - they won't be able to find their way there if there's no constantly emitted sound.
Everything depends on the characteristics of the zombies in the end, as I've already said - if zombies could be controlled through sound - then they're like cattle - you could direct them wherever you want and mass-eliminate them... The redeeming feature of humanity is intelligence - so of course if we don't use that brain of ours we're screwed. Humanity has already proved that we are totally capable of wiping out whole species (these species are more intelligent than most zombies are depicted to be) so I don't think there would be a really great problem with some really dumb zombies...
kitamesume:
right, how do you expect to blow up a million zombies with only a truck of dynamite, plus each explosion attracts more zombies, do note that a ton of dynamite could only blow up about 100meter radius of zombies(see terrorist movies that has a van loaded with explosives only blowing up a small area), oh right i wonder how'd you buy and carry tons of dynamite with the shortage of productions of it, riiiiiiiiight you magically have some.
if you'd plan to detonate a nuke, then be my guess, goodluck surviving the blast radius and the fallout, oh and the legal papers to acquire one. not even terrorists has one.
my point is, sure its great on paper, but on practice, its impossible, since having tons of explosives is illegal, nor does acquiring some is easy, plus its hard to move around with bulky explosives that could screw you over anytime because you kept attracting more zombies.

dunno if you'd bother about getting legal papers in an apocalypse?
