Orville & Wilbur Wright - The Men Who Destroyed Our World

On this date, (December 17th) in 1903, the Wright brothers made the first powered and sustained heavier-than-air human flight. One hundred and nine years later, airplanes criss-cross our globe by the tens of thousands. Distances that used to take months to travel are now done in hours.

So your question is, how did they destroy our world? Let me elaborate. It's a fairly accepted fact that the Zombie apocalypse will be caused by some sort of virus. If this virus was set loose in a airplane free society, it might spread slow enough that an area could be quarantined and/or a cure found. However, with the number of people that travel internationally and domestically every day, the chance of containing said virus is almost nill. Before we could even grasp what was happening, we would have a zombie epidemic on our hands.

So there you have it. These two men are responsible for creating the vehicle of our destruction.

PS~ I don't really believe there is going to be a zombie apocalypse. I just thought it would be a fun way to share some history today.
