I so totally need this.
Someone is offering a sacrifice to the tornado god.
Plus they have a friend with a crane.
Tornado God Is Happy!!! HAHA Now He Has More Projectiles For People He Cant Stand!!!!
looks like someone discovered the shift keys today…
Hope they have a lightning rod…
good god…how’d they get that up there? and why two ladders?
back door
The other ladder is a fire escape
The back ladder doesnt even reach to the top. Lol.
Well how else to keep it up? this is a kludge.
Ghetto AtAT
Err…zombies can climb ladders. They should have gone with rope ladders or perhaps they can just shove those ladders out of the way, and they have rope ladders in the RV.
LOL, if the zombies don’t get you, your own outpost will! XD
@longshot
the ladder on the right looks pretty thick. it’s probably holding some of the weight. otherwise, it would be balanced on that one telephone pole!
http://www.pip-utton.com/putton/13_TWOTW%20Cover%20web.jpg
This might be in a spot that is between a levy and a river, thus needing to be way off the ground.
I saw something like this (but it was a single-wide mobile home) on about 30-foot stilts with a generator and the LP gas tank on a platform about 15 feet up–and this was between a levy and the Mississippi River in Illinois.
Love it … also love the Ghetto At-At line.
i think this is a defence on a site. protestors occupy the caravan and it’s difficult to remove them without injuring them, thus giving more time to legal proceses or whatnot. that’s my guess… (i think i’ve seen the pic before somewhere..)
@longshot
Fire code requires a second means of egress in case of fire?? Zombies come up one ladder, you go down the other? Three Stooges/Marx Brothers film is waiting to break out here!
FEMA trailer????
Later, in the 20th century, man (once outside of Kentucky), invented the modern houseboat.
Did anyone notice that the door to nowhere seems to be open? That first steps a lulu… It doesn’t matter which ladder the zombies climb. They can only climb single file. One defender (well armed) per ladder and you are golden. Maybe an extra to rotate out so that you don’t get to tired…
MMM… Maybe it’s just the most comfortable tree stand ever.
The 2nd ladder is for the 2nd family. The primary renters sublet the back half.
Amazing how the tornado dropped it right on top of the ladder.
why would zombies ever attack the people living in this trailer since apparently they’re already missing their brains
This looks sort of like a deer blind.
@longshot
If you look closely you’ll see one is an up-ladder the other a down-ladder.
LOLS!!!!
Uhhh…zombies dont have enough coordination to climb a ladder so actually you are wrong…just to let you know.
lol
So true it’s worth repeating.
@longshot
exit and entrance? in case one is blocked by zomb-
oh wait…
earthquake, tornado, blizzard and hurricane gods are happy.
flood and drought gods not so much.
@Yeppers
The caravan will be a perfectly good faraday cage, so as long as the lightning doesnt damage the support for it you’d be fine.
@Jonathan
you haven’t read the zombie survival guide!
Why? o.O
“daddy, i want the tallest treehouse in the trailor park!”
@Jonathan
lulz u nub. Zombies can’t climb ladders, l2p or the zombies will have ur head. It was an error on the side of caution tho, so thats good
Dude Zombies can NOT climb ladders…. Thats a fact
So, I’m guessing they punched hatches in the back and sides of this trailer to get in and out?
Uhm… zombies don’t exist so how can you be arguing about what they can and cannot do?
enjoyment, i have arguements like this all the time
lotta fun conversation
@Yeppers
It is a lightning rod. If you’re inside something metal (i.e. a car), and are struck by lighting, so long as you’re not touching the metal – you’re fine.
Ya right. In physics they call this the Faraday cage effect.
@Lady Pavarti
Very innovative.
@Jonathan
Umm NO Zombies can’t climb. They lack the mental capability to climb. Read The Zombie Survival Guide it’s the best book I’ve ever read.
So has anybody noticed how the ladders seem to not go into the doors? are there holes in the bottom of the trailer? Safety Hazard? Not to mention that the entire thing is a safety hazard. One can only hope the entire family doesn’t stand on one end!
TIMBEEEEERRR!!!!
@woowo
yes, that’s true. However, a zombie swarm could easily tip it over. So it’s still a fail in my opinion.
“Ahhh… Good Morning-AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!” *thump*
I’m wondering if there’s a shitter in there. Maybe just a hole covered with a trap door. If so, then they should fence the area where the cr*p falls down. And you thought bird droppings were annoying…
How do you get from the top of the ladder (either one) to the door? Do zombies fly? If so, why do they need a ladder?
@rwm
too funny lol lol lol lol
this is actually the trailer park version of Repunzul. Gonna put a little south in your mouth hunny
“sir i am seeing 2thousand zombies what we gonna do?
@A Guy
that is not true *runnes away crying*
@firebenter
Multiple Choice:
a: That’s it man, Game Over!
b: Get to the Choppah!
c: Ductape the Chainsaw to the Automatic Rifle.
hahah! Word!
Erm…. Does the bathroom work?
“Hang on a minute, Carl, I just need to put the dog out.”
“YIPE YIPE YIPE YIpe yipe yipe *thud*”
“….. Rex?”
@Jonathan
Actually, many zombies are incapable of climbing even simple ladders. And even if they did, you just get as many as you could on the ladder, then push it down.
All you need is the eight inch gun on the top……..that way you can get a buch of zombies instead of one at a time…..just a thought. LOL
Billy Joel Bob tha Elventienth recently saw the trailer for Left 4 Dead 2.
“If this house is rockin, don’t bother…oh shit”!
ya’ll obviously haven’t much experience with the redneck sect. Its a Deer blind. lmao
Redneck high rise?
I think there is a hatch door created in the bottom. And my guess is that the second ladder is for access for maintenance work to the other side of the trailer. I think I would`ve built better support structures, and a lightning rod…
There is a house in rural Nova Scotia (Canada) that is built on a cliff ledge just below a highway. The house is accessed by rope ladder hung from or near the guard rail.
Unlike his more known cousin Bat Man, Bird Man had to settle for a low budget secret base.
i cant decide if this is clever or pointless…
Forget the zombies. I’d be more worried about gravity and the laws of physics.
Presumably to avail themselves of…a view?
Why else would you do that..no really why?
. . . why?
Thanks there, William, just snorted coffee all over my new keyboard.
@Taneer
Nononono, that’s where you empty your portable toilet
@William
please… PLEASE don’t ever say that again…
@A Guy
Thank you!
aside from the other obvious issues…how the hell do you get off the ladder and into it? The tethers don’t look too effective either.
How did they get a picture of my house? Darn, looks like it’s time to relocate.
That looks like something you might see in Half life…
@Taneer
If you push the ladders down when they are full of zombies how are you going ot eventually get out and down?
uuuurm how did it get up there in the first place?????
WOW! Carry the laundry and groceries up that later. Or better yet, wake up blured eye and miss the first step. The landing will be a painful one. LOL
@JMCMC
Umm, jump ontop of the dead zombies…Wait, dead undead is dead? Anyways you jump on the corpses of the corpses.
@zarray
lol so true
you see, it works otherwise they would never have gotten it out of the lower east side
or you can just shoot them as they are climbing up… how are u going to get down??@Taneer
“HUNNEEE!! ME GO TO SHOP FOR BRAIIIIIINNNNSSSSSS!!! AAAAAAAA……” Splat!
erm..how did they get it up there? …. not like I’d want to try it myself… =]
Really? Some one would put their zombie watching station up there where Vampires could get them? DAAAAD! Could you get the zombie repellent and the vampire reppellent. Also, get werewolf, frankenstein, mummy, robber, rapist, and murderer reppellent. I REEEAAALLLYYY hate all of those. Oh get 4 bazookas just in case.
The girl that knows her transformers has spoken.
Oh get the weakest person in the house, give him or her a bazooka, and let them watch the first shift.
The girl that knows her transformers has spoken
@Taneer
then you’d have some trouble getting down, wouldn’t you?
@woowo
Someone’s never played Left 4 Dead!
@JMCMC
Gravity? Duh?
pics?
@Taneer
resident evil 4?
Uber Pwnage Treehouse.
“If the place is a rockin’ for the love of God, call the emergency services!!!!”
@Taneer: Yes, but once you’d pushed the ladders down, how would YOU get down once all the zombies had gone?
Clever…
Just jump of course
and hope god is with you 
i wonder who the heck built that crazy and dangerous thing and why?
I gotta say this guy is some kind of loner…waiting for space aliens to take him home?
@Tylatz
And thought it was real
@Somebody
Or land on the pile of zombie bodies?
U wait for da choppa
how would u know if they can or can’t climb ladders??
I wish I lived there!!!!! =D
@NARFNra
Lol ^_^
@Taneer
Actually Zombies are incapable of alot, simply because they arent quite real
@Joe Sax
haha Get to the Choppa!!!
The ladder thing is very simple. If they’re able to climb the ladder, you do like Taneer said and wait till there are a bunch on the ladder then push it over. The zombies will then stand the ladder back up, and climb again. You repeat the ladder tipping process until there’s only one or 2 zombies left. Once that’s done you just wave your knife at the top of the ladder so that they fall down and die. This saves precious ammo for the guys with chainsaws. Geez… don’t any of you people play Resident Evil?
@Taneer
About 1/4 of all zombies are capable of climbing a ladder.
Or so Max Brooks says, and his guide is practically the Bible for us zombie survival fanatics.
True, Jay, but notice that when he or she reaches the top, the zombie would then have to manipulate a trapdoor. He would most likely attept to do so with both hands, thus eventually falling from the ladder. Of course, then he would get up and try it again. Not life threatening, but it would probably keep you awake: “Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Errrrr, Aaaaargh, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Skritch, Skritch, Skritch, Skritch, Skritch, Skritch, Slip, AAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaarrgh!, Foooosh, KA-Thump!, argh, rustle, rustle, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp, Clomp…..” and so on.
By climbing down the rolled-up ladder you have stashed away inside, of course. These ladders may well just be to deter zombies, with intentionally weak steps that will break when they climb. You’d use the roll-up ladder to actually get in and out.
Personally, if you have a roll up ladder, i’d say that the ladders there, like you say would have weak steps, would also serve to be a support to the weight, but then that’s rather obvious eh?
@Randy
hahaha, that isn’t that funny, but it made my day .(:
@The Cat
I don’t think zombies have the capacity to be deterred.
HOW DID THEY GET IT UP THERE?
also…the wires are a little…SLACK arent they?
Great detterent for zombies though
I agree with the falling and trying over and over again 
@rachel
The slack wires are power and cable. The secure wires are tight.
or you know…. you could just kick them in teh face when they reached the top……..
I just want to show some appreciation for this idea. Whoever the credit belongs to, I want them to know I think they’re brilliant. I have seriously wished I had the resources to make a bomb shelter, in order to avoid dealing with any potential zombies that may exist in the future. Damn. Nice Work.
All of the zombie enthusiasts are missing a very big negative that EVERY major zombie movie has pointed out: No matter how “secure” or “safe” your hideout is, unless you have an EXIT PLAN, you will die. What does it matter if one or several zombies can’t get up or you can get down with a ladder? After the first zombie knows you’re there, you’ll have a thousand before you know it. And the sheer mass of human pushing at that would bring it toppling over, for an easy feast. So unless you attach a zipline to the securing line, you’re still boned with that thing.
That may protect you against the old-timey zombies that walk slowly and are clumsy, but it won’t protect you from the new zombies that can run like an athlete and climb trees. You need to watch one of the newer George Romero movies. Zombies have evolved.
Yes, Mona, that would make a great bomb shelter.
how the hell did they get that up there in the first place???!!!
It was probably being chased by a double-wide. You see, they can climb up easily enough, but climbing back down presents a problem.
New from Bubba Pro Shop; The DELUX tree stand from Jayco trailers (tree, forest and crane not included)
Toto, I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore!
The answer to why there are two ladders is easy. You need a fire escape, you see these guys obviously think “Safety First”
This is a good scouting post, but should be used with another central base nearby, in case the people inside get trapped.. You wouldn’t want to open the trap door to try and shoot the zombie, if you fail it could grab you. Plus a strong storm could cause some damage and is a big risk. Also, this is a good vantage point to get headshots from, so overall easy to get kills, but hard to defend when the zombies get closer.
THE ONE CRUCIAL THING THAT IS FLAWED IN EVERY ZOMBIE MOVE: THE HUMAN BODY CAN’T MOVE AFTER DEATH!!!!! MUSCLES DO NOT FUNCTION WITHOUT THE OXYGEN PUMPED TO THEM BY YOUR CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM!!! aka your heart and blood vessel system for all uneducated people. LOL
first @ rus, its not EXACTLY death. if you were to read the zombie survival guide, youd be suprised how medicly sound it is.
also i think the zombies would attack the supports. and while many will be crushed as you fall down. many many more will be waiting if you survive
@matt
Why would I read a zombie survival guide? I am married, so therefore I get something called VAGINA. Second off, I graduated from High school, I don’t need an 83 IQ author to shovel me horse shit. Lol. You all seem rather incompetent, and extremely gullible.
This is a Darwin Award waiting to happen.
ummm did they call it zombie scouting post it could be a tree house or something else!
LOL i read that too!
wow rus…if you get so much vagina…then why the hell are you wasting your time on here…epic fail lame-o
@Rus
Wow u’s soooo virile an smuckin’ fart too.
@Rus
Its called imaginative speculation. It’s alright though, those more interesting folks who suscribe to it don’t expect cookie cutter high school grads like yourself to understand. While you are busy doing your best to breed with your wife and laughing at Bif from Back to the Future (I know…it’s a movie, not real) because you can relate to him so well, some of us like to pretend that life is more interesting than believing only the shit thats shoveled down your throat in high school.
Rus, what I have to ask you is why (if you so adamantly believe that zombies could not exist) you even bothered to look at this to begin with. And even if you were just looking at the pretty picture, why you felt the need to go and comment on our opinions, and make yourself look like a Neanderthal and someone who has a serious lack of intelligence.
PS: Congrats on passing high school! We’re all so proud! I can’t even tell you how proud I am of you. Nevermind the fact that 80 percent of people in America pass high school. We were worried about YOU.
ummm sorry, no. that whole 1/4 zombie thing is bull. ive read his books, and zombies can climb ladders when they’re hoard gets so large they pile upon eachother. at that height, zombies would never make it.
@Shawn
The High school comment was just assuming that most of these readers have never finished high school. Let alone gone to college, as I have, or done anything useful in their lives. Which I also have; 4 years USMC 3rd Marines 2nd Reconnaissance division as an 11 Bravo (combat Infantryman) for civilians. I am simply stating that most readers have probably never ventured out of their mothers’ basement, let alone made any sort of contribution to society. Keep sending feedback, I appreciate all opinions.
@Rus
FYI the USMC doesn’t have 11Bravos. That’s the Army and they write it 11B and they’re not called “combat” infantrymen. It’s just infantrymen. Combat is implied. So I would suggest doing something “useful” with your life and getting one that’s real and not as make-believe as our beloved zombies. Thanks. Raider7D out.
@Rus
On the not of incompetence, I apologize, that was rather presumptuous and slightly egocentric.
Note, lol.
Leave em alone! That’s the rednecks treehouse…
@Jay
Like the bible in the sense that it’s full of bad ideas? Zombies can’t climb. Max just wants to keep people away from ladders so he and his friends can use them all.
I see the advantages to having a post so high up… what I don’t see is how you’ll survive for extended periods of time provided the persistence of our zombies is as strong as we believe it to be… that is a small enclosed area with little room for supplies… there had better be a zip-line over the commune walls and gates to retreat with… or a very special stash of explosives to take a few of those bastards out when you run out of suppliesn and need to top yourself.
It doesn’t seem quite elevated enough for proper defensive scouting. Maybe as a sniper tower – first line of defence kind of thing it could be useful. Then again, a couple of Simo Hayha (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simo_H%C3%A4yh%C3%A4) sort of fellows in trees coule be just as good.
I’m also thinking, maybe a boobytrap? Lure zombies onto that thing, press the button and make a clean getaway. (would also be a good vid for BrainTube
What the hell is an 11B doing in the Marines? Maybe you were really doing some 0311 work in the Army and just got confused? Sorry, us civilians don’t know everything.
Maybe it is a bigfoot/sasquatch scouting post, eh? Had you thunk of that, numb nuts?
@Rus
Nice example of douchebaggery, dipshit. If you wanna know, I know people who didn’t finish highschool and got more culture and imagination than you. You say you got vagina? C’mon, your mom doesn’t count, loser.
And I read the guide and let me tell you, I’m more than 83 IQ and I know I wouldn’t be able to write a fictive guide that has so much realism. and alos, do you realize that it’s a tongue-in-cheek humor book? Do you skip stand-up shows because you hate humor? You probably watch only movies based on true stories because you have as much imagination as a newborn baboon….
If you think that those who read the Zombie Survival Guide are such incompetent dumbshit who never left their mom’s basement, just stick somewhere else, we zombie fans are better off without your ugly ass. for your information, I loved the Guide and I currently live in an appartment, away from my parents’ house, graduated from highschool and got engaged. Stick that in your head, you worthless waste of a human being.
Best laugh I’ve had today.
Thanks for the entertaining troll feeding session.
Also, Rus: you’re my hero. ^_^
@Rus
Go F@$% yourself, we know zombies are impossible. How is that any different from any other science fiction/fantasy plot?
Ps: i will enjoy sniping your zombie-fyed self after Michael Jackson rises from the grave to create his zombie army and rule the world : b
@Rus
“Which I also have; 4 years USMC 3rd Marines 2nd Reconnaissance division as an 11 Bravo (combat Infantryman) for civilians.”
And with all that you still couldn’t cure yourself of being a pompous asshat. Impressive.
i saw a zombie movie and they had chain saws and flametrowers and rocket lauchers on them so take that rus they will kill u first and im 12 and i have taken numerous iq test that say i have an iq of 143
That’s just a tree stand for deer hunting in Northern Wisconsin. They’re all over the place.
if they had chainsaws and such u’d be screwed
and rus, is graduating high school and getting accepted to MIT good enough for u?
i noticed alot of you have all read the zombie survival guid by max brooks…good to know
i have machete, and i know a good place the get weapons from if anyone wants to join me and my friends
@CAden
this is under the assumption that they are normal zombies…
First I lolled at the comments about zombies. I love zombie movies!
Then Rus came along and I lolled even harder.
Thanks Rus for restoring my faith in the rest of humanity that hasn’t disappeared up its own arsehole.
You are the very reason the masses should rise up and take back the world.
Exactly. Everyone seems to have overlooked the obvious here. LOL
All zombie books are terrible and I cannot believe people think otherwise.
hey finaly a trailer thats away from the flood,,, arghhh
BUT WAIT HERE COMES A TORNADOE ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!
Don’t tell me let me guess,the second ladder is a FIRE escape.
“…Hey Tom, it’s Bob, from the office down the hall…”
@Brian K. White
Good reference

“Finally, I got me the top floor of one of them there high rises!”
“I can see Russia from my house!”
I dont understand this
I like I like, you forgot the mines, though.. you can’t always have an eye out for zombies.. you need something to keep you safe while sleeping.
Zombies can climb ladders…. he’s screwed.
Zombies can’t climb ladders. they could probably knock that thing down though, if there was enough of ‘em.
d00d. no girls allowed.
Okay… How did it got there?
And Dizzle – no he can’t XD
Aaah, a room witha a view! Billy-Bob has really worked his way up in the world and bought the most expensiv lot on the whole trailerpark. The parkattendant assured him that Billy-Bob made quite a bargain.
Hasn’t anybody seen Resident Evil: Extinction? The zombies have no problem climbing the Eiffel Tower in Vegas….
Obviously there are no rednecks in the crowd, what you are looking at is the very latest in high tech deer stands. when your up there with four buddies, nine rifles, seven handguns, and eleven thousand rounds of ammo, we’re not too worried about zombies anyway. Just for the few of you getting steamed I am a redneck and I may have stretched the story a bit but there is at least one guy with a bow and two cans of warm beer.
If the caravan’s a’rockin’… you’re about to die.
it is a sacrificial door. “the tornado gods are angry, GET OUT OF THIS TRAILER RIGHT NOW OR THERE WILL BE TROUBLE”….. aiiyeee…….. thud. “Yay, the tornado god favors us again”
Redneck tree house!
Welcome to Jethro’s Own Amusement Park. For your safety, please keep your arms and hands inside the vehicle at all times. Please enjoy the ride.
lol wtf omg rofl
Day 200: I have found my way to a trailer park. There is a trailer on a pole! From up here I can see where the zombies are hiding their secret army (smell it, too), the major stocks of food, the major stocks of weaponry (other than and including the science center), homes peopled with actual humans, not zombies, and other lookout locations. Also, this trailer is stocked with projectiles, food and other examples of practicality. Let’s just hope this isn’t a trap and that the zombies aren’t going to find it. If they don’t, then this is a WIN!!!!!1!!!11!!!111!
