Or that they'd been stabbed, until after the fact.
So I've mentioned the sharpie test and the tueller drill.
Another reason you are dead within 1.5 seconds of encountering your first fast zombie, is adrenaline.
The Tueller Drill is interesting.https://t.co/D6p3zRRV52

Or that they'd been stabbed, until after the fact.
A dozen times within 30 seconds.
In full adrenaline freakout, this is even more pronounced.
You are dead the moment you encountered it.
Walking your dog would be difficult if it were. Just living in any city, really.
In reality, many people who were stabbed don't even realize it until afterwards.
Versus ones talking about sprinting speeds and comfortable running shoes and such
Not as sexy as arguing about guns and knives and bats, though
And all of that'd be as useless as having an actual gun in a surprise knifefight.

An interesting thing about carp is that they can go into anoxic hibernation and switch to an anaerobic metabolism based on converting glycogen to ethanol.
The waste ethanol is diffused out the gills
https://t.co/V3D1umHf04
Carp can switch over to an anaerobic metabolism and quietly exhale booze until the situation gets better.
They basically evolved the same metabolic pathway as yeast, independently.
In theory, if you spent a few thousand years breeding carp for it, you could use them to make booze.
They'd be enormous, almost entirely glycogen deposits with a fish added as an afterthought.
The really interesting thing about anaerobic carp, is that they can go 4-5 months without oxygen by relying on liver glycogen.
You, a human, have only about 100 grams of glycogen in your liver, about 400 more grams in your skeletal muscles. Call it 500 grams total.
In humans, glycogen is also burned for energy. This is where the marathon runner's bonk comes from: you only have about 2,000 calories worth, and running a marathon burns those 2,000 calories.

Look at some historical examples of mass psychogenic illnesses: dancing plagues, laughing plagues, meowing nuns,
Here's a video on them:
They are interesting, but what is more interesting to me is Culture Bound Syndrome. https://t.co/hMKaApUMZn
Basically: mass psychogenic illness, and presentation of various mental illnesses, do not occur in a vacuum. Cultures shape them.
For instance, Koro.
There have been several mass outbreaks of men completely convinced their penises are shrinking, anchoring them with string at night so they don't get sucked back inside.
Almost all in Southeast
Here's a description of one outbreak in Hainan in 1984:
