20. Michael Phelps
The Olympian Michael Phelps is the most decorated of every Olympian, ever. He has an astonishing twenty eight gold medals in his collection, earned from his performances at the Olympics. For four Olympics in a row, he’d become the most successful athlete of the games. He holds many records for these accomplishments, and it seems unlikely anyone could ever dethrone him of his success. His accolades are nothing short of incredible.
Sure, Phelps is most skilled in the water, as being a swimmer is what earns him all of that gold. But you don’t know what obstacles you’re going to find in a zombie apocalypse. Chances are, you’re going to arrive at a body of water. Here’s when it really helps to have someone like Phelps on the team. If you need someone to move quickly through the water for whatever reason, then this is obviously your guy.
Phelps has passed anti-doping tests with flying colors, volunteering to take them to combat unfounded rumors. His abilities are completely all natural, making him an apparent wonder of the world. He won’t need any kind of performance enhancing drugs to stay in tip top shape, as he gets to that place without them.
