* If you placed 28,981,249,043 rulers end to end, they would reach 28,981,249,043 feet in the sky.

Quite possibly the most insightful statistical evaluation ever. I love it.

Valve has updated their Left 4 Dead blog with a few brief statistics on how many Infected have been wasted in the first two months of Left 4 Dead 2's release.

In the first two months of Left 4 Dead 2's release, 28,981,249,043 zombies have been shot, bludgeoned, chainsawed and killed — or, for our younger readers, taken to a farm where they can frolic and shuffle around forever.

You read that correctly: 28 BILLION. To put that number in perspective:
* The entire population of the planet has been zombified and killed 4.26 times.
* With the average height of a zombie being 6 feet, if you stacked them end to end they would circle the globe 1,322 times.
* If you placed 28,981,249,043 rulers end to end, they would reach 28,981,249,043 feet in the sky.

Yeah, that just might be quite a few Infected there.
