Best Armor for the Zombie Apocalypse

From the tried and tested riot gear, to the strangest way to protect yourself from bites, these are The BEST Armor For The Zombie Apocalypse ! Subscribe to American Eye http://goo.gl/GBphkv 10. Chain Mail 9. Hockey Gear 8. Riot Gear 7. Scalemail Armor 6. Dogbite Suit 5. Bombsquad Suits Also known as EOD suits, this armored clothing is specifically designed to withstand heavy explosions. With people trying to protect their homes with homemade bombs during the apocalypse, one of these highly advanced bomb suits can prove to be useful for numerous reasons. They're made of tightly woven kevlar fibers that absorb the impact of the blast through the suit instead of the person. Other plates are added made from plastic that is 5 times stronger than steel so they should withstand the bite of a zombie, should. It’s also made of fire resistant materials allowing you to even enter a flaming building for looting or scavenging. Of course there’s going to be some setbacks. The suits are rather bulky and aren’t really made for you to run fast in. The 27,000 dollar price tag to produce is quite high and good luck trying to come across one of these. 4. Ghillie Suit Sometimes you’re best armor is invisibility. If you’re strategy is to hide out in the woods for a while and do your best to avoid what’s left of civilization, you should probably consider going with a Ghillie suit instead of bulky armor. These are worn by snipers in the military and hunters in order to resemble foliage. This a type of clothing that is made from a net covered in cloth or twine, made to look like you’re a bunch of twigs. Once you think you spotted this guy in the ghillie suit in this photo, it’s already too late.This gives survivors a three dimensional camouflage and doesn’t rely on patterns of clothing quite as much. This makes for a great suit to wear while sniping zombies in wooded areas but is completely useless in urban areas or if a zombie is actually attacking you. . 3. Deep Sea Exosuits We just don’t see any possible way a zombie would be able to defeat someone wearing one of these Deep Sea Exosuits. This was worn by a deep sea archaeologist while exploring the ancient wreckage off the coast of Greece from the location where the Antikythera mechanism was found. A pressurized diving suit like this is basically it’s own survival environment, that no zombie could ever bite though. It’s able to withstand bone crushing pressure of being 900 feet below the surface of the ocean. The Swiss company hublot designed this exosuit which is equipped with powerful LED’s, large claw-like graspers, rotatable joints, and powerful thrusters that allow divers to move through the water quickly! The company basically describes it as a wearable submarine. Knowing that zombies can’t swim, it would be the perfect thing to have while hiding out on your own island or boat. At a price tag at about 1.5 million dollars, we imagine it could withstand a few waves of zombies. 2. Dragon Skin The great thing about this armor is, that you don’t need a to slay a dragon to recover it. You might be somewhat surprised how available ballistic armor might be during the zombie apocalypse. Government agencies, police, and military forces who have all succumbed to the virus, probably left behind their valuable kevlar bulletproof armor. However not all bulletproof armor was built the equally and a new advancement in ballistics resistance has led to the dragon skin! While not being approved for the military, it is used by the high ranking government officials like the secret service and FBI. So it’s gotta be good! The armor uses kevlar but also titanium composed scaled plates, kinda like we saw earlier in the video. Capable of withstand multiple armor piercing rounds fired from AK’s and M16’s this is the armor you hope you can find! 1.Plate Armor And still the best thing we can use for armor, isn’t all the fancy kevlar or bomb resistant suits but plate armor that was designed by blacksmiths centuries ago! Many museums could be chock full of this valuable armor which will make it easy and available to loot however it’s best to buy one that’s been customized for yourself. A common misconception is that plate armor is difficult to maneuver in. If it’s correctly fitted to your body, it will not make a big difference. Some well made steel plate armor is strong enough to withstand 22 caliber bullets, handguns as well as some shotgun blasts. Plate armor is still quieter than it’s medieval counterparts and there’s no chance a zombie is going to bite through it. Plate armor is durable and reliable and used for centuries in battle. A combination of many of these things we listed should keep you from becoming zombie food.
