The Walking Dead Escape was an event held outside of NYCC and is the official zombie obstacle course of The Walking Dead. I heard about this event when it first took place at SDCC in 2012 so when I heard it was coming to the Intrepid Air, Sea and Space Museum in NYC I quickly got a group of friends together to do this. You had the choice of either going through the zombie-infested obstacle course as a survivor, or you could go through the professional makeup process of getting turned into a walker and scare people on the course for two hours. We obviously chose the latter.

I was fortunate enough to be able to wear Google Glass as a zombie while still looking scary enough to frighten a bunch of people. It was so much more fun that I thought it was going to be and I'd gladly do it again as a walker next time. Who says you only die once?

Here's the video I made with footage from Google Glass documenting everything from getting my makeup done to scaring people on the obstacle course. If you ever wanted to know what it's like from a zombie's perspective, it is actually like nothing you would expect. At least in my case. Watch the video to find out exactly what I mean.

So that's it! My last NYCC Through Google Glass post! In conclusion, NYCC was awesome and having Google Glass made taking photos/videos easier, helping me to document my weekend in a convenient and hands-free fashion. I had so much fun making these videos for you guys and look forward to doing the same next year. Thanks to Rich Johnston for having me on board!
