Hey folks! It’s been brought to my attention a scene was missed in this analysis, When Axel and Oscar are escorted to another cell block we see fallen prisoners that had been zip tied and executed, It’s been suggested this could have been an attempt by the guards to contain the spread of the virus as the prisoners began to turn but let me know what you think!
Ex CO here. My theory is that the riot guards went down to the heat. Those outfits are hot and this is in Georgia. If Georgia is anything like Texas, AC units are rare, and likely wouldn't be on when the power is down. They also likely didn't shoot the initial infected. Guns generally are never brought inside the perimeter. He likely got several staff and inmates before anyone could react. It might have even been a riot that took the first life. Said riot might have even been because of a surprise lockdown. In Texas, California, and a few other states there is a minimum number of lockdowns a year to search units, if not all the states. Everything else was poor key control allowing inmates to get from area to area, bitten officers and turning on the other side of locked gates, and inmates assuming staff is responsible and attacking preemptively. There has been a long going urban legend that prisons would be purged in the case of WW3, so that likely wouldn't help. Oh, and it's common to find "don't pick up hitchhikers" signs near prisons, even if there never has been a successful escape there. Oh, and the gas masks are not great for that kind of smoke. It's meant for CS and OC spray. As for the toilets, those are kept very clean. Inmates wash them religiously, and they are kept clean enough to do laundry in. Some even keep soda in their toilets. The water was clean, but limited and the water plants would stop putting new water in the pipes after the power went down.
Not even an Urban Legend, during Hurricane Katrina the Orleans Parish Prison abandoned over 600 prisoners. While there is no official death toll, there are 517 prisoners who went missing at that time without ever turning up.
Another here. Remember when the military was going place to place offing infected and none infected? They could have had the place as a target and blowing a hole in the building. They met their grizzly end. Becuse that is nor fire damage. That is a explosion. Maybe the boiler room? Considering most prisons in Georgia's rural areas still use steam oil boilers for heat. If you leave those unattended, even oil steam boilers from the 1980s. They will explode.
@@whitechapel8959 Even 1990's Texas prisons still use boilers that need constant surveillance. The one I worked at kept them in a mostly separate building.
The prison was my favorite home featured in the show. Idk why, but I loved that they were able to call the place home and even made it more of a home by season 4 with the eating area, the water system, and the chalk drawings on the wall
@@ferrofluidfangz And as much as I like Alexandria and definitely feels like the best home to have once the world turns to crap, the prison just feels like another character we had to say goodbye to. I still love the hint for it at the end of season 2 with the theme playing and growing louder as we see the prison in the distance
@@hpfan2007 what a good way to put it! it really was one of the homes that felt the most 'alive' in a sense. because of alexandria being so barren at first intro, it didn't feel like anyone really lived there at all before the fall, whereas we had so many stories of the prisoners who lived there before & it felt like the survivors honored their lives in a sense by making the prison a home.
Mad respect to the guard who helped save the inmates. I like to believe he was a stand out guard who would even try his best to make their lives easier in the before times. The scummy guards call them “Inmate advocates”. Regardless this unsung hero deserves some praise
Guards probably didnt had guts to kill unarmed prisoners. This is still very early in apocalipse and people werent that hardcore at that time. Guards were stuck with prisoners who they cant trust and will be dead weight in a fight. So the only option was to lock them in closest safe room.
@@karolissavickis10so he couldn’t trust them in a fight and instead of risking his life by having them with him, he risked his life by giving them his gun
Got to do the fall of Ricks Hospital, Noah’s family’s neighborhood, Cranwall High School, the CDC, and the high rise office camp in Atlanta that Carol and Darrel discover.
I would love to see two from The Ones Who Live but don’t think there’s enough info though. 1x3 Bridger’s Terminal with the cruise ship which had that sign on it, I think it was Safe Harbor but of course it didn’t turn out that way. And it had all of those shoeless burned bodies. I’m thinking the CRM had something to do with it or maybe not. Also the scene, where Rick is setting up their escape or as we know Michonne’s escape, and he comes upon that soldier or consignee that’s dead and it’s written, “I’m sorry I lied”. And there’s a bag of canned food next to the body. Would love to see videos on those but again not even enough info to have a video on either one. Especially the second one. But I still think about those ever so often.
Agreed. An episode showing what happened to Robin Taylor Lords character and his girlfriend in between when we see them alive and struggling, to when we see her deceased and him in terminus would really be dope. Did anyone watch an Internet short called Dead Storage? It was like 4 or 5 minisodes totaling maybe 30 minutes of story. That was really cool. They could have done more like that. Or shown the story of the guys in the bar in the episode Nebraska, and what brought them there.
@@Swell-Films make sure you get them to do it while getting yourself paid though. Let's get some ideas for characters and scripts to present for you that would be incredible! Maybe do some lives with your audience to help 💜💜💜
I worked as a Swat Officer in a prison in Indiana... (still in corrections now, just juvenile on a county level vs adult on a state level.) and a couple of things I noticed.... 1... there should have been wayyyyy more officers in Riot gear. 2. there are Civilian workers in a prison... definitely if the fall happened during the day. 3. there was wayyyy less staff (officers) in the walkers/bodies than there should have been as they would have been mandated to work during the sickness before the fall.
Question, would it be possible that maybe the reason why there were les guards and riot gears because most of them fled their posts when they realized it was the end of the fucking world to attempt to try to reunite with their families and or just survive?
A solid attempt at breaking down what happened at the Prison, but you forgot the scene where Rick's group took the surviving inmates to be detained in another wing of the prison; where we see that the previous inmates had had their arms had been handcuffed behind them, bags placed over their heads, and looked to have all been shot in back of the head in front of their cells. That scene changes the context of what might have happened. My theory is that, after realizing that the dead are coming back to life to eat the living and that the government wasn't coming to save them, some of the guards decided to purge the prison of its inmates so they could use the prison as a wasteland fortress to ride out the apocalypse. Only problem was that not all guards and staff agreed with that plan. There's no telling if they ever debated on what to do, but what is sure is that the murderous guards started putting down inmates before all hell broke out. Either the honorable guards started to let some of the inmates loose to combat the murderous guards, or the inmates just caught on what the guards were doing and rioted like their lives depended on it. Shoots were fired, people died, reanimated, got back up, and the prison turned into a burned out blood bath we all know and love. As to why the bus was flipped? I imagine it was a way to prevent staff that wanted to leave from beating down the gate with their cars or something. People were in the dark about what was happening on the outside of the prison. You don't want useful people getting themselves killed over something as silly as "Looking for their loved ones". But that's just my two cents.
I absolutely did miss that scene thanks for bringing it to my attention, really well thought out theory. as for your take on there tied up prisoners, I think that’s probably exactly the case with the executed prisoners
I agree with this and think that's pretty much what happened too. I thought the bus might've been put there by guards who were fleeing after the chaos, as a way to stop anyone inside the prison fleeing, living or dead.
12:05 I was always under the impression that the gas mask walker was because that guy thought the disease was airborne and put it on as a measure to prevent him from turning.
Headcanon: it absolutely happened, probably they saw the tank and a bunch of walkers and the Governor’s rotting body, if not fully skeletical and were like “WTF happened here?”
I could imagine something like this: Years had passed since the outbreak. Many settlements and communities had risen and fallen. A group of survivors was searching old governmental buildings for weapons and any useful supplies. Most places nearby had already been looted or were too hard to access, until they remembered the old prison close by. So they went there. They weren’t expecting anything unusual, maybe a couple of military trucks with supplies if they were lucky, but when they arrived, they saw something unexpected: bodies were scattered all around, along with vehicles, tents, and even what was once a farm. There were signs of what had been a thriving community-and then, the tank. Like a sore thumb, it was clear this had been the downfall of the settlement. More and more signs of conflict appeared, and they wondered, "What the hell happened here?" But even with that question in their minds, they didn’t care much about the history or the rise and fall of the place. They didn’t have the luxury to ask questions. They were searching only for supplies and were more than happy to use the ones left there...
My guess is that the events leading to the fall of the prison started not on Monument Day but on August 25th, when the CDC declared the virus a global pandemic. Prison officials all over the USA may have been ordered to lockdown their prisoners to "prevent transmission" of Wildfire, not knowing that everyone was infected. Fast forward to sometime during or after Monument Day (I think it happened after), the prison may have been ordered by surviving officials to 'liquidate' the prisoners so that their manpower could instead be used to keep things in control in places like Atlanta where the regular PD was overwhelmed. This would explain why you see prisoner remains handcuffed after being 'liquidated'. Once some of the prisoners began realizing what was happening, they began a deadly and violent riot in a desperate attempt to save themselves, and in the process people on both sides get taken out, inmates use the riot to settle rivalries, and a building getting heavily damaged, attracting extra walkers to the scene on top of the ones turning inside the prison itself. With the situation going out of control, some of the COs decide to abandon the prison, some try to fight back with little to no success, and some decide to do a Dr. Jenner. I think that the majority of the guards that wanted to escape did manage to do so, given that the vast majority of walkers seen in the prison are inmates or civilians who snuck in via the breach, though their fate is unknown. From there, like Ty said, The surviving inmates likely tried to use the bus to escape. However, I think it rolled over as the inmate driver instinctively swerved trying to avoid walkers in the yard. (Like how one may swerve a car when at risk of getting into an accident). I think this is the case because it would not make sense for them to use it as a sort of high ground or hiding spot instead of just aiming to smash the fences and ride off into the sunset. From there, with no way out, they would try to fight back but without any weapons, would meet the same fate.
I remember seeing a part when Rick and the others went into a different cell block and saw multiple inmates lying face down on the floor hands tied and a bullet hole to the head. They executed all of the inmates in that cell block.
They left so many supplies in the prison after the war, i always think about all the guns that were probably abandoned in the prison, I know some of the survivors took some weapons when fighting the Governor and his army, but we saw on rick's side that most of them are civilians and already fled to the bus. The only character that i saw fighting (that are not part of the main cast) is Julio, the guy using a sniper rifle and uses the bench as a shield. He also got killed when attempting to run alongside with Maggie and the others. Yes, Lizzie and Mika both have guns, but it was nothing compared to the stockpile that they've left.
the only thing i wonder is why not make a tales of twd episode based on this success? it doesn't necessarily have to focus on the guard who locked the prisoners in the cafeteria they can choose to show the story of any guard or prisoner and why not maybe even a small group they can also make everyone die maybe mentioning some zombie like the guard who committed suicide there are so many ideas so many stories that they can do thanks for this video I love all your videos even the Pokemon ones
Imagine a tales episode where it starts when Jim reanimates as a walker, we follow his story as one, we see him on the farm with the horde, then we see him get killed off either by somebudy we don't know or somebudy we'd come to later, that's just ONE idea, they could do so many.
I’m very excited to see what happens next in Daryl Dixon season 2. I never really thought about how the prison could have been overrun by the walkers you would think that with all of the supplies they have there they would be safe but I guess in the zombie apocalypse even the most secure places can still be overrun.
My personal opinion is that instead of a riot it started off as the cops knew what was happening and certain cells started getting infected so they tried to keep it under wraps while executing them, which is why somewhere zip tied, but then there was a riot Because the prisoners didn’t know what was happening in, assume they were just killing I mean, it would make sense because cops would have walkie-talkies to other cops outside of the prison as well as communications to different government agencies that are in tandem with the prison
Big flaw with your idea about the riot starting because a guard shot an infected prisoner in his cell: prison guards don't carry guns inside. They would have only brought them in after everything went to shit.
@@Swell-FilmsI left a comment up above that gives you a lot of info. Also, the guns being inside of the perimeter is a VERY bad sign. They haven't been allowed past the admin buildings since the 90's if not earlier. They had to have left and come back to save the population.
I like your explanation of this. Ngl, when I saw the title I immediately thought you were referring to when The Governor attacked for the final time and not the initial fall of the prison. Some of the civilians could have been visitors as well as people who found the whole entering the tombs on the other side of the prison. As for the prisoner trapped in the cell, starvation and dehydration was likely the cause of their deaths but maybe it could have been an illness or even they opted out from something we couldn’t see. It’s quite disappointing that Tales didn’t explore this but if they have a season 2, they can redeem themselves. Those riot guards could have gotten trapped outside by all the walkers inside and maybe hide away outside but eventually starved themselves but then why wouldn’t they try to hop over the fence with all the walkers inside the fence as well? Like you said, they were probably beaten to death by rioters. I wonder if the guard who gave Tomas the gun was one of the walkers. Would you cover any environmental story telling on world beyond if you haven’t already? I’m excited for this month since Halloween is coming!
I had a couple comments saying that so hopefully this titles a little better. But yeah these stories would have been a gold mine for tales, such a shame. And there is one scene in world beyond’s first season I have on my list so I’ll definitely be getting around to it eventually!
I always figured the Riot Walkers died from the smoke while trying to establish some semblance of order or were strangled by the inmates teaming up on them As for the prison itself, even after going through a literal apocalypse it was still in good enough shape for Rick & Co to decide to take it over and turn it into a home. I honestly think if things hadnt spiraled out of control so fast that maybe the guards might have been able to contain the spread better or at least have a better chance ar getting out. Hopefully if we ever get another shot at a TWD prequel show/Video game we can see how things happened at the prison or follow an inmate/guard that was barely able to escape
For the turned over bus I’d say someone or some people tried to make a break for it but didn’t make obviously either cuz they didn’t check the back seats zombieland style
The fence behind the admin building appears to be cut. The building was burnt down but that doesn’t explain how the fence is got cut in a straight line. People came after looking for supplies or perhaps some did escape?
Hey man great video, i really loved what you did here and i've also noticed that you've done other videos on things that me and others have recommended, so i wanna give you another one, how about the supermarket they visit in the premier of S4, when Beth's boyfriend dies, it's pretty interesting if you ask me!
The guards could have brought the virus in from the outside, inmates who were sick could have died and turned, anyone in the sick ward would have attacked a nurse and started something which would lead to chaos and a riot... but I like how the theory here where it seems like someone was shot in the head for no reason (not knowing they had turned yet) and then revolting against what they thought was a murdered friend
Yes!! I was hoping you would do a video about this. I appreciate the content you put out about TWD. I can't wait to see what else you have in store for TWD videos.
I hated that when the Governor attacked, the red-headed guy with the mustache just gets fucking domed just as he was beginning to start connecting to someone like Carol. I think they could've been a good match if he survived. He was the one who integrated easily with Rick's group. I don't remember if we learned why they were in but he seemed like a good guy from what I remember. Wrong place, wrong time or victim of circumstance maybe?
So he was in for armed robbery, sort of. He robbed a store with a water pistol but when he was arrested, the cops found a real gun and he got a full armed robbery conviction. Plus fun fact that character, Axel, was originally supposed to be a serial killer and it was planned for him to kill Beth and assault Carol (not SA i believe but he was suppose to hurt her somehow)
You forgot to add when Rick group the escorted the two prisoners to their cell block you can see prisoners zip tie behind their backs lined up and executed
You forgot the corpsies that were shot by guards in block D My theory is the prison did fall after monument day but in the same week probably, some guards leaving going to home for rest but never coming back (being victims of walkers on outside the world) making the security of the prison be cutten in half.
Since watching your videos I've been keeping my eye out for environments and im up to season 9/10 now. Any idea what that place is beta hangs out at when alpha meets him?
Hmmm I think a prison break did happen maybe a prisoner had connections from outside who tried to blast the walls of the prison bit when it attracted walkers that started the riot and guards shooting at prisoners. Since the guards wouldn’t be able to tell who’s infected or not since it was their first encounter with the walkers. Then I can see the same people who are trying to break out/ break in get to that prison bus but either the guard shot at the tire or someone on the bus got infected and took a chuck out of the driver which resulted in the bus flipping
The bus always confused me because of its placing, its on its side but if you tipped it up it would hit the fence so it couldn't have been tipped from a standing position without damaging the gates
I think you missed out that one cell block that clearly has prisoners executed by guards as they are tied up and have gun shots in their heads. Showing darker side of the guards trying to contain the outbreak without fully understanding it
I recell in the series the survivors speculated that the walkers might havd gotten in from outside. As they said they noticed a lot of civies. On the they might have been vistirs caught up in the carnage.
The riot gear wearing guards couldve died from the heat or from a Crush. With a riot breaking out before or as a result of the executions of some prisoners in cell blocks, crushes could've easily formed and then have a bunch of walkers feeding on them, increasing the pressure on those who arent even bit. More walking dead, more gunshots being fired, more prisoners fearing for their lives, more chaos.
I figured that the Prison was doomed to fail because Rick and co did still have Michonne hunting for the Governor, but she seemed to have given up at some point, meaning that his still being out there left a huge threat that could potentially come back and destroy them. If the Governor had been killed and Martinez's group had arrived with Martinez still in charge, the prison might have actually become secured as Martinez's army could have been included into the prison's defenses, meaning that the manpower problem would have been less of an issue. Also, the prison's layout, though quite impressive, was spread out too far for the Survivors to properly defend it, especially when minimal defensive improvements, such as some chevaux-de-frise at the main gate, were suitable for individual or small groups of walkers but not for other hostile groups that could have circumnavigated them or large herds that could have used their weight en masse to break through the fencing surrounding the prison (which is what occurs in Season 4). Rather, an effective wall around the main prison building itself like the one from Hilltop or those of the Commonwealth would have made a suitable inner bastion to protect the occupants of the prison community. Furthermore, even though Rick and co were trying to institute genuine agricultural techniques to provide a long-lasting food supply, they needed to also have a secure clean water source that would be impossible for attackers to seize and cut off, which from the show did not seem to exist at the prison. Finally, as with the outbreak at the prison, if the prison had been truly kept sanitary and proper searches of locations with medicine had been done, the population could have weathered out many outbreaks, saving them from suffering great losses and potential walker infestations.
The bus is too strategically placed to have simply been tipped over, so my guess it was used as a barricade. As for why Glen was able to tank it in the armour and the Guards couldn't, they weren't named whereas Glen was, so Glen got plot armour whilst Nameless Guards didn't.
I liked your theory a lot but I have a big theory about the bus on the side I believe some prison guards were driving some of the inmates to another prison but one of the prisoners turned into a walker and attacked the driver and then the bus flips over. Tbh I love the riot gear walkers they are one of my favorite walkers in the show! You know what weird the prison guards didn’t use any of there weapons like there pistols or you couldn’t see if they had a night stick on the side of them. Great job on the video! Do you ever think you can do a video about Rick Grimes police station in King County???
@@Swell-Films no problem and thanks to you! You’re making better TWD content than others! I love your theories and things you want people to think about! Just keep it up!
Idea for Walker Variant - The Primate Walker ( Zombie Monkeys, Chimps, Gorillas and etc ) - Primates share 92% to 98% common DNA with humans and humans and primates share common diseases like monkeypox and AIDS, so what if the Wild Fire Virus infected wild primates like monkeys and chimps but instead of slow walkers we get fast, aggressive zombie primates that act like and move like the Infected chimps / humans in 28 Days Later. They can climb and scale walls and sneak up on survivors, these Primate zombies would come be encountered near Zoo's or in countries where primates are more common / have large numbers.
W video only thing I could say is I believe they wouldn’t dehydrate in the cells the showers were still working when the group got there but they definitely starved 😢
I have two friends who work as security guards at prisons. One down in Southern California, and one up in Washington State. When asked, both of those men would shrug their shoulders and tell you that the inmates for the most part, are similar in maturity level to 13 yr old boys. But are decent enough so long as you treat them with honesty and respect. I'm not saying that the inmates are sweet unicorns of happiness. No. They are the monsters of humanity. And are in prison for very good reasons. But remember, that Hollywood erroneously likes to portray correctional officers as bloodthirsty monsters who enjoy tormenting prisoners. Which is generally not true at all. I think your theory is pretty good. But I tend to believe that most of the correctional officers died doing their best to help and protect the inmates in their care whom they had come to regard as worth saving. Maybe even some as friends. Yes, its a rose colored viewpoint. But I like that idea better.
I think one way the riot gear guards were killed was that they were probably choked out by inmates due to how exposed the neck area was (given how Maggie was able to attack that same spot) Just my thoughts
How the bus tipped over: In a hurry an officer or inmates hurried to the bus and drove. Driving to fast a walker steps in front of the bus and in an effort to avoid impact the driver makes a sharp turn and the bus tips.
The riot could have been due to operation cobalt. The cell block where the prisoners had been cuffed and executed makes me think so. When they started killing prisoners the others would have rioted and it has been shown that officers and soldiers rebelled against execution orders. It could also explain why the riot officers were beaten to death. The bus doesn’t make sense it was turned over and pushed against the fence. There is no way it could have been just turned over that way.
Id guess. The a person turned on the prison bus maybe sick and denied treatment. As the bus arrived a fight broke out causing it to crash. The guards would then bring the wounded inside to the infirmary. From there it would spread with guards thinking a riot was starting and fighting back. As they fall back to the cell blocks prisoners would beg to open the cells some bitten as they reach through the bars. Fire and chaos breakout as inmates try to flee and the guns fail to keep the dead back as guards dont know about headshots. The prisoners cant leave due to the fences but later try to break down the office walls after being trapped. surving officers would put down any injured or hostile prisoners as they retreat to safer parts of the prision to hold up. i feel this explains how some cells are locked with prisioners having starved While other cells are open that contained bitten inmates who have been put down. clearly guards had a conscious locking those in the kitchen they would also hope to free those trapped in the cell block. Tho would keep others locked up as they find safty
The 3rd season aired in 2012, if i am not mistaken, well it's over a decade ago, so it's been that long, and what makes it worse is that Hershel's actor passed away a few years ago.
I don’t see the guards giving Thomas and the other prisoners a weapon and locking them in the kitchen, I think Thomas got the pistol from him and blew his head off, that guard with the gunshot was that guard. The others didn’t snitch on him for fear of being killed.
I think that bus had something to do with it maybe it had Zombie kids in it and they turned the driver into one of them and it crashed and then they effected everyone except those five prisoners
I think how the bus turned over because someone tried to Ram into the gate but it fell over in the process or there were going to run into the gate but they saw a person or Walker and turn the wheel and that's how it happened that's my guess
Have you done a video on the family in the very first episode of TWD where Rick get's the horse? The wall says God Forgive Us in blood. I'm not sure if it's enough to make a video tbh.
I feel like it would have been absolute hell on earth. Riots in different areas of the prison I would bet a lot of people got out specially with the wall being down. The guards dead in the chairs with keys I always felt was a big clue. There were areas of the prison that were infested with walkers others not.tells me parts were cleared out. It’s early on they don’t know much this area is locked down put everyone down guards included maybe even state police coming in and shooting the guards along with prisoners.Almost like they tried to take parts of it back? But they were just overwhelmed. The guards keeping the walls probably shot whoever was driving that van it’s why it rolled . I would bet many guards and staff got away given it’s a prison ok they can’t control a or b but we can control them from ever getting out? And the guard throwing them the revolver. 5 guys with a revolver I’m pretty sure holds 5 rounds 6 at most. It wasn’t for protection it was giving them an option.
maybe the riot zombies were bitten first , then put the gear on. i mean if i was in that situation and and got bitten id go put on the riot gear i had access to
Im thinking smoke inhalation. Stuff started going down so they donned the armour and went to the section of the complex that caught fire and subsequently suffocated. It would explain them in armour without any apparent injuries turning them into walkers, the mild damage to the armour and the fact they are out in the yard with other walkers that seemingly came in through the major 'hole in the fence'.
@@tobyoneil1969 yah that could be another reason, i saw another comment saying it could of been from the heat too. either from the heat outside or from the fire . i mean all 3 are good reasons how they ended up like that
Can you talk about the army base where Otis and Shane get the supplies for Carl? (Season 2). Idk if there Is any lore showed at all, im not sure at all
Yk what weve never seen, someone get rabies. I wonder how that would work, maybe one day we will get to see that. Would you still know to avvoid the walkers? Or would you just attack what ever moves. Ofc we would know that would lead to the person with rabies to die but the zombie infected with rabies? Im bit sure if it has to be alive to be able to transmit it
If the plumbing in the building was sound then for a decent while they could of used taps for water but beyond that, i suppose there would have been stores of liquid in the cafeteria naturally. Think like a juice box or something.
@@Swell-Films do you know what people mean when they say something about the Virgin Mary from the Daryl Dixon spin off season 2? I’m trying to find the comment on a person who makes videos on RUclips because they said they would cover it. I totally missed it so I was hoping to find that information. Do you happen to know what that’s about at all? Great videos I enjoy watching them. God bless. 💜🩵💜
Hey folks! It’s been brought to my attention a scene was missed in this analysis,
When Axel and Oscar are escorted to another cell block we see fallen prisoners that had been zip tied and executed,
It’s been suggested this could have been an attempt by the guards to contain the spread of the virus as the prisoners began to turn but let me know what you think!
Did you saw my comment?
@@mistermath481 which comment are you referring to?
@@Swell-Films I thought you saw my comment, forget about ☺
Ex CO here.
My theory is that the riot guards went down to the heat. Those outfits are hot and this is in Georgia. If Georgia is anything like Texas, AC units are rare, and likely wouldn't be on when the power is down.
They also likely didn't shoot the initial infected. Guns generally are never brought inside the perimeter. He likely got several staff and inmates before anyone could react. It might have even been a riot that took the first life. Said riot might have even been because of a surprise lockdown. In Texas, California, and a few other states there is a minimum number of lockdowns a year to search units, if not all the states.
Everything else was poor key control allowing inmates to get from area to area, bitten officers and turning on the other side of locked gates, and inmates assuming staff is responsible and attacking preemptively. There has been a long going urban legend that prisons would be purged in the case of WW3, so that likely wouldn't help.
Oh, and it's common to find "don't pick up hitchhikers" signs near prisons, even if there never has been a successful escape there.
Oh, and the gas masks are not great for that kind of smoke. It's meant for CS and OC spray.
As for the toilets, those are kept very clean. Inmates wash them religiously, and they are kept clean enough to do laundry in. Some even keep soda in their toilets. The water was clean, but limited and the water plants would stop putting new water in the pipes after the power went down.
Not even an Urban Legend, during Hurricane Katrina the Orleans Parish Prison abandoned over 600 prisoners. While there is no official death toll, there are 517 prisoners who went missing at that time without ever turning up.
Great observations. I do like the theory on the guards over heating, I hadn’t considered that
I remember that. A few of them were foubd in the swamps. @@thomaswillard6267
Another here.
Remember when the military was going place to place offing infected and none infected?
They could have had the place as a target and blowing a hole in the building. They met their grizzly end.
Becuse that is nor fire damage.
That is a explosion.
Maybe the boiler room?
Considering most prisons in Georgia's rural areas still use steam oil boilers for heat.
If you leave those unattended, even oil steam boilers from the 1980s. They will explode.
@@whitechapel8959 Even 1990's Texas prisons still use boilers that need constant surveillance. The one I worked at kept them in a mostly separate building.
The prison was my favorite home featured in the show. Idk why, but I loved that they were able to call the place home and even made it more of a home by season 4 with the eating area, the water system, and the chalk drawings on the wall
it was definitely one of the most influential to me too! i can't really think of the show without thinking of the prison arc specifically
@@ferrofluidfangz And as much as I like Alexandria and definitely feels like the best home to have once the world turns to crap, the prison just feels like another character we had to say goodbye to. I still love the hint for it at the end of season 2 with the theme playing and growing louder as we see the prison in the distance
@@hpfan2007 what a good way to put it! it really was one of the homes that felt the most 'alive' in a sense. because of alexandria being so barren at first intro, it didn't feel like anyone really lived there at all before the fall, whereas we had so many stories of the prisoners who lived there before & it felt like the survivors honored their lives in a sense by making the prison a home.
I agree. Still traumatized by the fate of the piggies tho 😢
Definitely still miss the prison as a location
Mad respect to the guard who helped save the inmates. I like to believe he was a stand out guard who would even try his best to make their lives easier in the before times. The scummy guards call them “Inmate advocates”. Regardless this unsung hero deserves some praise
Guards probably didnt had guts to kill unarmed prisoners. This is still very early in apocalipse and people werent that hardcore at that time. Guards were stuck with prisoners who they cant trust and will be dead weight in a fight. So the only option was to lock them in closest safe room.
Just say you love real world violent criminals, rapists, child molesters, etc.

Loved this quote
*Moment I heard about this apocalypse* Yeah, no thanks, I'll stay in Prison
Got to do the fall of Ricks Hospital, Noah’s family’s neighborhood, Cranwall High School, the CDC, and the high rise office camp in Atlanta that Carol and Darrel discover.
Also the burned rendezvous point the police officers escape to in Coda
He needs to do a video on how many times shane banged Lori and how many times they came
I would love to see two from The Ones Who Live but don’t think there’s enough info though.
1x3 Bridger’s Terminal with the cruise ship which had that sign on it, I think it was Safe Harbor but of course it didn’t turn out that way. And it had all of those shoeless burned bodies. I’m thinking the CRM had something to do with it or maybe not.
Also the scene, where Rick is setting up their escape or as we know Michonne’s escape, and he comes upon that soldier or consignee that’s dead and it’s written, “I’m sorry I lied”. And there’s a bag of canned food next to the body.
Would love to see videos on those but again not even enough info to have a video on either one. Especially the second one. But I still think about those ever so often.
Tales of the walking dead should have been storys of previous areas they visited and ppl .. and thier storys .. this would have been a good idea xx
100%
Agreed. An episode showing what happened to Robin Taylor Lords character and his girlfriend in between when we see them alive and struggling, to when we see her deceased and him in terminus would really be dope.
Did anyone watch an Internet short called Dead Storage? It was like 4 or 5 minisodes totaling maybe 30 minutes of story. That was really cool. They could have done more like that. Or shown the story of the guys in the bar in the episode Nebraska, and what brought them there.
@@Swell-Films make sure you get them to do it while getting yourself paid though. Let's get some ideas for characters and scripts to present for you that would be incredible! Maybe do some lives with your audience to help 💜💜💜
They should've done a video on the outbreak unlike whatever Blair/Gina was
@@westmoreland4realthey made a lot of those look up “TWD Webisodes” they even tie into fear. There’s 10+
I worked as a Swat Officer in a prison in Indiana... (still in corrections now, just juvenile on a county level vs adult on a state level.) and a couple of things I noticed.... 1... there should have been wayyyyy more officers in Riot gear. 2. there are Civilian workers in a prison... definitely if the fall happened during the day. 3. there was wayyyy less staff (officers) in the walkers/bodies than there should have been as they would have been mandated to work during the sickness before the fall.
Question, would it be possible that maybe the reason why there were les guards and riot gears because most of them fled their posts when they realized it was the end of the fucking world to attempt to try to reunite with their families and or just survive?
@@jordanwhite352 I am thinking it was the flu that is seen hinted at in some news articles and mentioned in the spinoff.
A solid attempt at breaking down what happened at the Prison, but you forgot the scene where Rick's group took the surviving inmates to be detained in another wing of the prison; where we see that the previous inmates had had their arms had been handcuffed behind them, bags placed over their heads, and looked to have all been shot in back of the head in front of their cells. That scene changes the context of what might have happened.
My theory is that, after realizing that the dead are coming back to life to eat the living and that the government wasn't coming to save them, some of the guards decided to purge the prison of its inmates so they could use the prison as a wasteland fortress to ride out the apocalypse. Only problem was that not all guards and staff agreed with that plan. There's no telling if they ever debated on what to do, but what is sure is that the murderous guards started putting down inmates before all hell broke out. Either the honorable guards started to let some of the inmates loose to combat the murderous guards, or the inmates just caught on what the guards were doing and rioted like their lives depended on it. Shoots were fired, people died, reanimated, got back up, and the prison turned into a burned out blood bath we all know and love.
As to why the bus was flipped? I imagine it was a way to prevent staff that wanted to leave from beating down the gate with their cars or something. People were in the dark about what was happening on the outside of the prison. You don't want useful people getting themselves killed over something as silly as "Looking for their loved ones".
But that's just my two cents.
I absolutely did miss that scene thanks for bringing it to my attention, really well thought out theory. as for your take on there tied up prisoners, I think that’s probably exactly the case with the executed prisoners
I agree with this and think that's pretty much what happened too. I thought the bus might've been put there by guards who were fleeing after the chaos, as a way to stop anyone inside the prison fleeing, living or dead.
12:05 I was always under the impression that the gas mask walker was because that guy thought the disease was airborne and put it on as a measure to prevent him from turning.
That could totally be the case as well
My thought was that they might have tried tear gas to either keep the rioters in check of the walkers
That's a good theory! I like that!
Sometime i wonder if other survivors found the prison and wondered what happened to it
Headcanon: it absolutely happened, probably they saw the tank and a bunch of walkers and the Governor’s rotting body, if not fully skeletical and were like “WTF happened here?”
Yeah bullets everywhere dead bodies. A tank left abandoned. They'd be like wtf
I could imagine something like this:
Years had passed since the outbreak. Many settlements and communities had risen and fallen. A group of survivors was searching old governmental buildings for weapons and any useful supplies. Most places nearby had already been looted or were too hard to access, until they remembered the old prison close by. So they went there. They weren’t expecting anything unusual, maybe a couple of military trucks with supplies if they were lucky, but when they arrived, they saw something unexpected: bodies were scattered all around, along with vehicles, tents, and even what was once a farm. There were signs of what had been a thriving community-and then, the tank. Like a sore thumb, it was clear this had been the downfall of the settlement. More and more signs of conflict appeared, and they wondered, "What the hell happened here?" But even with that question in their minds, they didn’t care much about the history or the rise and fall of the place. They didn’t have the luxury to ask questions. They were searching only for supplies and were more than happy to use the ones left there...
@sebastiannavarro9719 another hint would be the crosses marking the graves of the settlers.
Imagine if Morgan stumbled upon it while going to Terminus
Bruh image your cell mate dies and you’re just trapped in a small cage with a walker with 0 weapons to defend yourself.
Nightmare scenario
My guess is that the events leading to the fall of the prison started not on Monument Day but on August 25th, when the CDC declared the virus a global pandemic. Prison officials all over the USA may have been ordered to lockdown their prisoners to "prevent transmission" of Wildfire, not knowing that everyone was infected.
Fast forward to sometime during or after Monument Day (I think it happened after), the prison may have been ordered by surviving officials to 'liquidate' the prisoners so that their manpower could instead be used to keep things in control in places like Atlanta where the regular PD was overwhelmed. This would explain why you see prisoner remains handcuffed after being 'liquidated'. Once some of the prisoners began realizing what was happening, they began a deadly and violent riot in a desperate attempt to save themselves, and in the process people on both sides get taken out, inmates use the riot to settle rivalries, and a building getting heavily damaged, attracting extra walkers to the scene on top of the ones turning inside the prison itself.
With the situation going out of control, some of the COs decide to abandon the prison, some try to fight back with little to no success, and some decide to do a Dr. Jenner. I think that the majority of the guards that wanted to escape did manage to do so, given that the vast majority of walkers seen in the prison are inmates or civilians who snuck in via the breach, though their fate is unknown.
From there, like Ty said, The surviving inmates likely tried to use the bus to escape. However, I think it rolled over as the inmate driver instinctively swerved trying to avoid walkers in the yard. (Like how one may swerve a car when at risk of getting into an accident). I think this is the case because it would not make sense for them to use it as a sort of high ground or hiding spot instead of just aiming to smash the fences and ride off into the sunset. From there, with no way out, they would try to fight back but without any weapons, would meet the same fate.
I remember seeing a part when Rick and the others went into a different cell block and saw multiple inmates lying face down on the floor hands tied and a bullet hole to the head. They executed all of the inmates in that cell block.
They left so many supplies in the prison after the war, i always think about all the guns that were probably abandoned in the prison, I know some of the survivors took some weapons when fighting the Governor and his army, but we saw on rick's side that most of them are civilians and already fled to the bus. The only character that i saw fighting (that are not part of the main cast) is Julio, the guy using a sniper rifle and uses the bench as a shield. He also got killed when attempting to run alongside with Maggie and the others. Yes, Lizzie and Mika both have guns, but it was nothing compared to the stockpile that they've left.
the only thing i wonder is why not make a tales of twd episode based on this success? it doesn't necessarily have to focus on the guard who locked the prisoners in the cafeteria they can choose to show the story of any guard or prisoner and why not maybe even a small group they can also make everyone die maybe mentioning some zombie like the guard who committed suicide there are so many ideas so many stories that they can do thanks for this video I love all your videos even the Pokemon ones
Hey thanks so much mate! And agreed tales was a huge missed opportunity
Imagine a tales episode where it starts when Jim reanimates as a walker, we follow his story as one, we see him on the farm with the horde, then we see him get killed off either by somebudy we don't know or somebudy we'd come to later, that's just ONE idea, they could do so many.
I’m very excited to see what happens next in Daryl Dixon season 2. I never really thought about how the prison could have been overrun by the walkers you would think that with all of the supplies they have there they would be safe but I guess in the zombie apocalypse even the most secure places can still be overrun.
My personal opinion is that instead of a riot it started off as the cops knew what was happening and certain cells started getting infected so they tried to keep it under wraps while executing them, which is why somewhere zip tied, but then there was a riot Because the prisoners didn’t know what was happening in, assume they were just killing I mean, it would make sense because cops would have walkie-talkies to other cops outside of the prison as well as communications to different government agencies that are in tandem with the prison
Big flaw with your idea about the riot starting because a guard shot an infected prisoner in his cell: prison guards don't carry guns inside. They would have only brought them in after everything went to shit.
I’m imagining a horror version of the prison during the breakout, absolutely chilling
Thank you for making these videos as they are very entertaining and this in particular has been/is an enjoyable series, so good job on these videos 👍🏻
Thanks so much!
@@Swell-Films What if the civilian walkers were also people visiting?
Do the Vehicle Jammed Highway Episode "What Lies Ahead."
I really wanted to but Kirkman quite a few years back revealed everyone died from a car crash
@@Swell-Filmsstate that at the start, then make it better
@@Swell-FilmsI left a comment up above that gives you a lot of info.
Also, the guns being inside of the perimeter is a VERY bad sign. They haven't been allowed past the admin buildings since the 90's if not earlier. They had to have left and come back to save the population.
It also appears in Tales of TWD Blair/Gina@@Swell-Films
I like your explanation of this. Ngl, when I saw the title I immediately thought you were referring to when The Governor attacked for the final time and not the initial fall of the prison. Some of the civilians could have been visitors as well as people who found the whole entering the tombs on the other side of the prison. As for the prisoner trapped in the cell, starvation and dehydration was likely the cause of their deaths but maybe it could have been an illness or even they opted out from something we couldn’t see. It’s quite disappointing that Tales didn’t explore this but if they have a season 2, they can redeem themselves. Those riot guards could have gotten trapped outside by all the walkers inside and maybe hide away outside but eventually starved themselves but then why wouldn’t they try to hop over the fence with all the walkers inside the fence as well? Like you said, they were probably beaten to death by rioters. I wonder if the guard who gave Tomas the gun was one of the walkers. Would you cover any environmental story telling on world beyond if you haven’t already? I’m excited for this month since Halloween is coming!
I had a couple comments saying that so hopefully this titles a little better. But yeah these stories would have been a gold mine for tales, such a shame.
And there is one scene in world beyond’s first season I have on my list so I’ll definitely be getting around to it eventually!
I love when you do storytelling keep doing it
I always figured the Riot Walkers died from the smoke while trying to establish some semblance of order or were strangled by the inmates teaming up on them
As for the prison itself, even after going through a literal apocalypse it was still in good enough shape for Rick & Co to decide to take it over and turn it into a home. I honestly think if things hadnt spiraled out of control so fast that maybe the guards might have been able to contain the spread better or at least have a better chance ar getting out.
Hopefully if we ever get another shot at a TWD prequel show/Video game we can see how things happened at the prison or follow an inmate/guard that was barely able to escape
The guards died because they had body armor, not plot armor.
For the turned over bus I’d say someone or some people tried to make a break for it but didn’t make obviously either cuz they didn’t check the back seats zombieland style
The God Forgive Us / Siggard Family is still a cool thing to bring up. Or all the dead bodies on the loading dock of the hospital in season 1
The fence behind the admin building appears to be cut. The building was burnt down but that doesn’t explain how the fence is got cut in a straight line.
People came after looking for supplies or perhaps some did escape?
Hey man great video, i really loved what you did here and i've also noticed that you've done other videos on things that me and others have recommended, so i wanna give you another one, how about the supermarket they visit in the premier of S4, when Beth's boyfriend dies, it's pretty interesting if you ask me!
I’ve been meaning to cover that one for awhile actually, I’ll probably end up getting to it next!
The guards could have brought the virus in from the outside, inmates who were sick could have died and turned, anyone in the sick ward would have attacked a nurse and started something which would lead to chaos and a riot... but I like how the theory here where it seems like someone was shot in the head for no reason (not knowing they had turned yet) and then revolting against what they thought was a murdered friend
Yes!! I was hoping you would do a video about this. I appreciate the content you put out about TWD. I can't wait to see what else you have in store for TWD videos.
Thanks so much for watching!
I hated that when the Governor attacked, the red-headed guy with the mustache just gets fucking domed just as he was beginning to start connecting to someone like Carol. I think they could've been a good match if he survived. He was the one who integrated easily with Rick's group.
I don't remember if we learned why they were in but he seemed like a good guy from what I remember. Wrong place, wrong time or victim of circumstance maybe?
So he was in for armed robbery, sort of. He robbed a store with a water pistol but when he was arrested, the cops found a real gun and he got a full armed robbery conviction.
Plus fun fact that character, Axel, was originally supposed to be a serial killer and it was planned for him to kill Beth and assault Carol (not SA i believe but he was suppose to hurt her somehow)
You forgot to add when Rick group the escorted the two prisoners to their cell block you can see prisoners zip tie behind their backs lined up and executed
That’s true I did miss that scene, I wonder if that could have something to do with the bad prisoners getting revenge during the riot
@@Swell-Filmsor the guards stopping the spread?
@@Ladies_man217xprobably more likely tbh
You forgot the corpsies that were shot by guards in block D
My theory is the prison did fall after monument day but in the same week probably, some guards leaving going to home for rest but never coming back (being victims of walkers on outside the world) making the security of the prison be cutten in half.
Thats a cool story 🔥 loving these recently
BABE WAKE UP 🗣️🚨
I’ve been waiting for this one
The fall of the high school in season 2 where Otis dies
yesss been waitin for this 😎😎💚
That’s a really good explanation
Damn, you took my suggestion at heart 😮
Since watching your videos I've been keeping my eye out for environments and im up to season 9/10 now. Any idea what that place is beta hangs out at when alpha meets him?
I’ve had that one on my list for awhile, I’ll definitely cover it eventually!
I love these videos!!
Hmmm I think a prison break did happen maybe a prisoner had connections from outside who tried to blast the walls of the prison bit when it attracted walkers that started the riot and guards shooting at prisoners. Since the guards wouldn’t be able to tell who’s infected or not since it was their first encounter with the walkers. Then I can see the same people who are trying to break out/ break in get to that prison bus but either the guard shot at the tire or someone on the bus got infected and took a chuck out of the driver which resulted in the bus flipping
Love your vids ! ❤xx
The bus always confused me because of its placing, its on its side but if you tipped it up it would hit the fence so it couldn't have been tipped from a standing position without damaging the gates
Yeah the bus is really hard to place. My thought process was maybe they turned it over and then pushed it toward the gate
YEEEEES BANGER AFTER BANGER
I think you missed out that one cell block that clearly has prisoners executed by guards as they are tied up and have gun shots in their heads. Showing darker side of the guards trying to contain the outbreak without fully understanding it
I recell in the series the survivors speculated that the walkers might havd gotten in from outside. As they said they noticed a lot of civies. On the they might have been vistirs caught up in the carnage.
The riot gear wearing guards couldve died from the heat or from a Crush. With a riot breaking out before or as a result of the executions of some prisoners in cell blocks, crushes could've easily formed and then have a bunch of walkers feeding on them, increasing the pressure on those who arent even bit. More walking dead, more gunshots being fired, more prisoners fearing for their lives, more chaos.
Your videos are great!
Thanks so much!
I figured that the Prison was doomed to fail because Rick and co did still have Michonne hunting for the Governor, but she seemed to have given up at some point, meaning that his still being out there left a huge threat that could potentially come back and destroy them. If the Governor had been killed and Martinez's group had arrived with Martinez still in charge, the prison might have actually become secured as Martinez's army could have been included into the prison's defenses, meaning that the manpower problem would have been less of an issue. Also, the prison's layout, though quite impressive, was spread out too far for the Survivors to properly defend it, especially when minimal defensive improvements, such as some chevaux-de-frise at the main gate, were suitable for individual or small groups of walkers but not for other hostile groups that could have circumnavigated them or large herds that could have used their weight en masse to break through the fencing surrounding the prison (which is what occurs in Season 4). Rather, an effective wall around the main prison building itself like the one from Hilltop or those of the Commonwealth would have made a suitable inner bastion to protect the occupants of the prison community. Furthermore, even though Rick and co were trying to institute genuine agricultural techniques to provide a long-lasting food supply, they needed to also have a secure clean water source that would be impossible for attackers to seize and cut off, which from the show did not seem to exist at the prison. Finally, as with the outbreak at the prison, if the prison had been truly kept sanitary and proper searches of locations with medicine had been done, the population could have weathered out many outbreaks, saving them from suffering great losses and potential walker infestations.
The bus is too strategically placed to have simply been tipped over, so my guess it was used as a barricade. As for why Glen was able to tank it in the armour and the Guards couldn't, they weren't named whereas Glen was, so Glen got plot armour whilst Nameless Guards didn't.
I liked your theory a lot but I have a big theory about the bus on the side I believe some prison guards were driving some of the inmates to another prison but one of the prisoners turned into a walker and attacked the driver and then the bus flips over. Tbh I love the riot gear walkers they are one of my favorite walkers in the show! You know what weird the prison guards didn’t use any of there weapons like there pistols or you couldn’t see if they had a night stick on the side of them. Great job on the video! Do you ever think you can do a video about Rick Grimes police station in King County???
I think that’s a great theory! And I can definitely take a look at the scene and see if there’s enough. Thanks for watching as always man!
@@Swell-Films no problem and thanks to you! You’re making better TWD content than others! I love your theories and things you want people to think about! Just keep it up!
Love the video
Idea for Walker Variant - The Primate Walker ( Zombie Monkeys, Chimps, Gorillas and etc ) - Primates share 92% to 98% common DNA with humans and humans and primates share common diseases like monkeypox and AIDS, so what if the Wild Fire Virus infected wild primates like monkeys and chimps but instead of slow walkers we get fast, aggressive zombie primates that act like and move like the Infected chimps / humans in 28 Days Later. They can climb and scale walls and sneak up on survivors, these Primate zombies would come be encountered near Zoo's or in countries where primates are more common / have large numbers.
W video only thing I could say is I believe they wouldn’t dehydrate in the cells the showers were still working when the group got there but they definitely starved 😢
I have two friends who work as security guards at prisons. One down in Southern California, and one up in Washington State. When asked, both of those men would shrug their shoulders and tell you that the inmates for the most part, are similar in maturity level to 13 yr old boys. But are decent enough so long as you treat them with honesty and respect. I'm not saying that the inmates are sweet unicorns of happiness. No. They are the monsters of humanity. And are in prison for very good reasons. But remember, that Hollywood erroneously likes to portray correctional officers as bloodthirsty monsters who enjoy tormenting prisoners. Which is generally not true at all. I think your theory is pretty good. But I tend to believe that most of the correctional officers died doing their best to help and protect the inmates in their care whom they had come to regard as worth saving. Maybe even some as friends. Yes, its a rose colored viewpoint. But I like that idea better.
I think one way the riot gear guards were killed was that they were probably choked out by inmates due to how exposed the neck area was (given how Maggie was able to attack that same spot)
Just my thoughts
That’s a good theory
How the bus tipped over:
In a hurry an officer or inmates hurried to the bus and drove. Driving to fast a walker steps in front of the bus and in an effort to avoid impact the driver makes a sharp turn and the bus tips.
Thanks for this
That was a fun season
The riot could have been due to operation cobalt. The cell block where the prisoners had been cuffed and executed makes me think so. When they started killing prisoners the others would have rioted and it has been shown that officers and soldiers rebelled against execution orders. It could also explain why the riot officers were beaten to death. The bus doesn’t make sense it was turned over and pushed against the fence. There is no way it could have been just turned over that way.
Id guess. The a person turned on the prison bus maybe sick and denied treatment. As the bus arrived a fight broke out causing it to crash. The guards would then bring the wounded inside to the infirmary.
From there it would spread with guards thinking a riot was starting and fighting back. As they fall back to the cell blocks prisoners would beg to open the cells some bitten as they reach through the bars.
Fire and chaos breakout as inmates try to flee and the guns fail to keep the dead back as guards dont know about headshots. The prisoners cant leave due to the fences but later try to break down the office walls after being trapped.
surving officers would put down any injured or hostile prisoners as they retreat to safer parts of the prision to hold up.
i feel this explains how some cells are locked with prisioners having starved While other cells are open that contained bitten inmates who have been put down.
clearly guards had a conscious locking those in the kitchen they would also hope to free those trapped in the cell block. Tho would keep others locked up as they find safty
Man, I miss the prison days in TWD.
The early 2010s. Back when things weren't as crazy
Hershel was bit on the leg, man has it been that long. I remember him losing a arm.
The 3rd season aired in 2012, if i am not mistaken, well it's over a decade ago, so it's been that long, and what makes it worse is that Hershel's actor passed away a few years ago.
Oh wow.... I'm really early

Last time I was this early there was no walker apocalypse. 😂😭

Just Catching Up, Great Video‼️
🙌💎📽️🧟♂️🩸🖤
Glad you enjoyed it!
And boy what a world they had to escape into too...
Oh yea the prison ❤️🔥
The way the cleared the second layer the next day was so dumb they could of just lured a bunch of them to the fence and poked them through the fence
Everything makes sense
This is like my 5th time watching this
Haha I greatly appreciate that!
I can’t image anything other than Diddy it would make sense because the warden shot himself in the head from almost being diddled
I don’t see the guards giving Thomas and the other prisoners a weapon and locking them in the kitchen, I think Thomas got the pistol from him and blew his head off, that guard with the gunshot was that guard.
The others didn’t snitch on him for fear of being killed.
It’s possible that civilians were just visiting their loved ones in the
jail when the riot started.
just started watching ur vids have you ever done the hospital rick was in s1 ep1 ???
I think that bus had something to do with it maybe it had Zombie kids in it and they turned the driver into one of them and it crashed and then they effected everyone except those five prisoners
I would love to see this in tale of the walking dead
i wonder if Lee from telltale games was originally being driven there… to this prison
I think how the bus turned over because someone tried to Ram into the gate but it fell over in the process or there were going to run into the gate but they saw a person or Walker and turn the wheel and that's how it happened that's my guess
Is perfect
Please do a more of the walking dead comics
It's strange revisiting this show. I gave up when most did, during the crap Negan era. Seeing how great this show once was is a little sad.
Have you done a video on the family in the very first episode of TWD where Rick get's the horse? The wall says God Forgive Us in blood. I'm not sure if it's enough to make a video tbh.
I’ve consider it but yeah there’s not much of a mystery there
@@Swell-Filmsyou could make a compilation filled with little pieces like that
Until Robert kirkman himself comments on this video and denies this theory I don’t see why we can’t consider it canon
I feel like it would have been absolute hell on earth. Riots in different areas of the prison I would bet a lot of people got out specially with the wall being down. The guards dead in the chairs with keys I always felt was a big clue. There were areas of the prison that were infested with walkers others not.tells me parts were cleared out. It’s early on they don’t know much this area is locked down put everyone down guards included maybe even state police coming in and shooting the guards along with prisoners.Almost like they tried to take parts of it back? But they were just overwhelmed. The guards keeping the walls probably shot whoever was driving that van it’s why it rolled . I would bet many guards and staff got away given it’s a prison ok they can’t control a or b but we can control them from ever getting out? And the guard throwing them the revolver. 5 guys with a revolver I’m pretty sure holds 5 rounds 6 at most. It wasn’t for protection it was giving them an option.
maybe the riot zombies were bitten first , then put the gear on. i mean if i was in that situation and and got bitten id go put on the riot gear i had access to
Im thinking smoke inhalation. Stuff started going down so they donned the armour and went to the section of the complex that caught fire and subsequently suffocated. It would explain them in armour without any apparent injuries turning them into walkers, the mild damage to the armour and the fact they are out in the yard with other walkers that seemingly came in through the major 'hole in the fence'.
@@tobyoneil1969 yah that could be another reason, i saw another comment saying it could of been from the heat too. either from the heat outside or from the fire . i mean all 3 are good reasons how they ended up like that
How did the hotel got overrun again or fell after madison and Victor strand left the hotel in fear?

Can you talk about the army base where Otis and Shane get the supplies for Carl? (Season 2). Idk if there Is any lore showed at all, im not sure at all
I’ve gotten that scene requested a few times, I’ll definitely check it out and see if I can make something out of it!
@@Swell-Films thanks you very much!❤️❤️
Yk what weve never seen, someone get rabies. I wonder how that would work, maybe one day we will get to see that. Would you still know to avvoid the walkers? Or would you just attack what ever moves. Ofc we would know that would lead to the person with rabies to die but the zombie infected with rabies? Im bit sure if it has to be alive to be able to transmit it
Can you do the CDC next?
Good suggestion
do the hospital scenes from season 1
What happened to the Vatos in season 1
Where did the cafeteria survivor inmates get water for 10 months? Was the water still working all that time?
If the plumbing in the building was sound then for a decent while they could of used taps for water but beyond that, i suppose there would have been stores of liquid in the cafeteria naturally. Think like a juice box or something.
I inspired this video btw
Do you do these type of videos on the spin offs?
I’ve done only one from fear so far but I do plan to explore scenes from all shows across the franchise
@@Swell-Films do you know what people mean when they say something about the Virgin Mary from the Daryl Dixon spin off season 2? I’m trying to find the comment on a person who makes videos on RUclips because they said they would cover it. I totally missed it so I was hoping to find that information.
Do you happen to know what that’s about at all?

I thought it was the fall of The Prison with The Governor, his new group of militia, and the tank.
