Top 5 Facts: The Apocalypse is Near


even at the end of the world we got your
back mojo holics should you wanna leave
me
welcome to watchmojo.com ting down the
five most fascinating and slightly
frightening things that you probably
didn’t know about the probably maybe
could be some day upcoming apocalypse
and how close it really could be if we
don’t get this job done everybody’s
calling number five we’re already
leaving messages for a post apocalypse
world the apocalypse when doesn’t matter
I’m right see isn’t it nuts how everyone
is immediately wow that is a smelly
bandanna built anonymously and often
labeled as the American Stonehenge the
Georgia Guidestones consists of six
granite slabs on to which Ten
Commandment like rules are etched in
eight different languages according to
the stones a future post-apocalyptic
civilization should amongst other things
cap the global population at five
hundred million which is one fourteenth
of what it is now invent a universal
language and leave room for nature that
last bit is actually repeated twice
apparently the hope is that the stones
will steer us into an age of reason it’s
a lesson in how to live your life
without causing the end of the world
taught by those who learn the lesson the
hard way
number four there’s a 10% probability of
a 21st century nuclear war the watchdog
group of nuclear scientists move the
Doomsday Clock up to five minutes until
midnight destruction by nuclear war the
Cold War in its traditional sense might
have passed but the modern day
geopolitical landscape is hardly at
peace that 10% figure was reached by
Stanford professor Martin Hellman making
statistical sense of the 25,000 nuclear
weapons in existence in 2050 the u.s.
the UK Russia France China India
Pakistan and North Korea could all start
a nuclear war given all this Hellman
says that we reach thousands of times
more likely to die from the nuclear war
than a nuclear power mishap and that’s
if you live next door to the power plant
then opening at the nuclear plant cuz of
that guy that defect it’s a North Korea
good old day who used to give me the
pickles up his sandwich and all I had to
do is let him copy some keys number
three the real apocalypse won’t be like
the movies follow back of course if the
end really was coming then no one would
really be expecting Bruce Willis to
actually save our skins but as the
apocalyptically clued in cracked.com
points out there are plenty of other
reasons why cinematic Armageddon’s get
it all wrong so now without rent
payments or DMVs or lines or bosses or
social etiquette in general they are
free to finally indulge in the one thing
that we all secretly want the most to
just be selfish Astralis for instance
saying fed and physically healthy will
be pretty tough even if you can hunt
forest animals you still be prone to
malnutrition get the shoulder the
working people are suffering where’s
your vitamin C going to come from and
then how are you gonna save off scurvy
or any other disease for that matter
you’re probably more likely to die from
a relatively simple but untreated
disease then the actual zombies or what
have you so by the third or fourth
season all those folks in the walking
dead should really be walking and dead
number two apocalyptic predictions have
a zero percent success rate Christians
called it the rapture but the Mayans
knew about it the hope is the the
i-ching
the Bible kind of beer with around 30 of
them forecasts since the year 2000 we’ve
really been spoiled when it comes to end
of days predictions this century however
none are yet to come true that is unless
you’re we watching this in some kind of
doomsday bunker in the year 2027 in
which case congratulations on surviving
thanks for watching and don’t forget to
subscribe so far false predictions have
ranged from American evangelist Harold
Camping is claimed that three percent of
the world’s population would ascend to
heaven in 2011 to the much-publicised
Mayan prophecy that the world would end
on December 21st 2012 not to mention the
many Armageddon’s that should have
occurred in the year 2000 itself I think
it could take us 10 to 15 years to
recover from the effects of y2k
financially so far the prediction
success rate is zero percent but that
score can only go up or remain constant
I’ll take those odds number one if all
else fails the Sun will kill us all oh
it’s glorious it’s sublime it’s the
single most important entity in our
solar system in terms of achieving and
maintaining life but science says that
the Sun will one day bring about the
Earth’s demise however humanity may
speed the process along little by say
blasting holes in the ozone layer and
generally caused and climate change
beyond that which is humanly manageable
but environmental snowball effect or not
the truth is that the Sun will end us
it’s estimated that in 500 million years
at most it will be too hot to sustain
life in its current state and that in
around five billion years the Sun will
evolve into a red giant star which will
engulf consume and generally kill our
planet entirely basically even if the
apocalypse isn’t near it is unavoidable
take that zero percent all is nothing
we’re all doomed so are you heading to
the store to stock up on canned food
junk like the doomsday whistle ain’t
been blown for nigh on just three years
how do you think you’d fare in the after
and I feel like I would die until next
time if there is a next time
from work how to close m’q top tens and
generally disastrous top fives be sure

prayer
