It might seem funny now, but when you have spent two weeks living on a rooftop and eating nothing but pork and beans you will reflect back on this and be glad for what you learned! :) Leslie,

That is a technique where you block the attack wit one arm, but also crush your other hand into the face or neck while lunging slightly forward. I agree this has the potential to work well on a zombie by knocking them off balance. It think it would have less of the "shock" effect that it has on a (live) human though. As for the neck break, I am not aware of a Krav Kagaian neck break move, but if so it would be a nice one for zombies. Bear in mind however, that decapitation witout the destruction of te brain just means an imobile head laying around snapping at you. Definitely less threatening though!

It would be effective if that's the case since a broken neck is an internal decapitation and would at least stop them from being able to move...
