UFC fighter, TUF 15 competitor, Taekwondo Black Belt, Zombie survival expert and allround badass, Daron Cruickshank.
Q. Which Martial style do you think would apply best in a zombie apocalypse?
A. I would have to say that the Jeet Kune Do way of fighting is the best, because it uses what works at the time. Be like water, flow.
Q. Best household items to use when fighting off the zombie hordes (and why?)
A. Anything that is handy works as long as you can hit them with enough power to smash their head into pieces. I am a big fan of the frying pan if I'm in the kitchen. If I'm in the yard I'll just pick up a brick from the walkway path, or a hammer from the barn. The key is to make whatever you can get your hands on work for you. You're the tool, that makes it work.
Q. Have you got any preparations planned in case of a Zombie apocalypse?
A. I keep lots of coffee and energy drinks in the house. I also have an escape plan out of my house and my Bronco is filled with everything I need to take out Zombies and stay alive.
Q. What is your favourite Zombie film?
A. That's easy Zombieland, I like the concept of the rules and how they show them.
Q. If you could recruit 4 MMA fighters to join your Zombie apocalypse survivalist group, who would they be?
A. Dan Severn, because he is a Michigan man and has seen it all.
Randy Couture has also seen it all and is a military guy.
Chad Mendes because he is a hunter, when that guy is not training, he is out in the woods hunting.
Randy Couture has also seen it all and is a military guy.
I'd also take Urijah Faber, because he has a great positive attitude, when it comes to life.
Q. Best Martial Arts Technique to use against a Zombie?
A. I'm a big fan of the jump spin hook kick, it has so much force that it could take a head clean off.
Q. How do you believe a Zombie outbreak would begin?
A. I think it would start by Mad Cow turning into Mad Pig and everyone loves bacon, then there will be Mad Humans = Zombies.
Q. On another note. You was scheduled to fight Henry Martinez at UFC 151, what are your feelings on the scrapping of the card?
A. It Sucks, but I am still thankful to be in the UFC and to have a job doing something that I love. Fights change all the time, it's part of the sport. As a fighter you have to be Mentally flexible.
Q. Where and when, can we see your Zombie survival guide?
A. Keep a look out on Twitter @Cruickshank155 (https://twitter.com/Cruickshank155), I will post it soon, still testing ideas.
