You need more options on your poll, and who's to say zombies can't learn to swim. I mean, they are undead after all, so theoretically they could just walk along the sea bed to your island without having to breathe.

I doubt they would sink all the way to the bottom. If they could sink to the bottom, lifeless bodies would never turn up on the sides or rivers or on the coast, they would always be at the bottom. I think we can assume the zombies wouldn't think of holding onto something heavy to keep them at the bottom.

EDIT: The poll is a kickback to a famous zombie movie

Well, assuming they don't have to breathe, they would have no air in their lungs, hence letting them sink to the bottom. BTW, what is the movie you are referring to in the poll question.

Can zombies use boats? That's a pretty pressing question...
 
I'd take an aircraft carrier battle group out to see and let the zombies run their course, be sure to stock up on large air burst bombs like the moab to clear out large swaths of zombies.
 
I'll be fine - I'll just wear an MTV shirt. They'll see that and be on their way in search of brains.
😀
 
Guys, the ocean gets MILES deep, full of trenches and giant squid, not to mention complete darkness and no sense of direction. The zombies are NOT going to be walking through the ocean to get to your desert island.
 
I would turn into a zombie and munch on Scarlett Johanssen's succulent white meat, and gnaw on Nicole Kidman's spare ribs.

You've all got it wrong. The best way to defend against a Zombie invasion is with a cricket bat and a case full of 45's.

Shawn of the Dead is an awesome movie
 
Considering my quality of life as a human, I wouldn't mind being a Zombie myself. I will be the cleverest Zombie in the world and use the others for world domination.

And I have read the zombie survival guide too, I now know all your weakness 🙂
 
First I would get supplies. I would borrow a Makarov and a SKS, and plenty of ammo. Next I would get food, solar panels, and lots of warm clothing (I live in Alaska). Finally, I would grab my stock of MREs and other survival gear and try to find fuel and propane, and pick up my friends. Then I would drive to a remote cabin in the Alaskan wilderness.

Which ep might that be? I never figurede out the 1, 2, profit origin...
 
I would wear spikes all over my body. Something like pinhead but all over, longer, and sharper. That with a couple of long blades is all I would need.
 
my friends and i will be on top of our local Rite Aid. it has canned food, guns, booze, and iron security windows.
