The cover of Forrest Griffin's new book, "Be Ready When the Sh*t Goes Down: A Survival Guide to the Apocalypse", which will be released this August.
Product Description:In "Got Fight?", Forrest Griffin and Erich Krauss unleashed their unique brand of humor teaching people how to get tough and become a man. Now in the sequel to their bestselling book, Griffin and Krauss teach people the ultimate form of manliness: surviving the coming apocalypse (it’s gotta come soon, so you might as well be ready). For years, Forrest Griffin has been waiting anxiously to find himself in a post-apocalyptic future. Why’s he so excited about the near-extinction of mankind? Think about it: with grooming an personal hygiene no longer a prerequisite to social acceptance, you can let your mutton chops grow and live out your secret fantasy of becoming Wolverine. You could kill squirrels with your bare hands, practice throwing knives all day, and never have to say ‘excuse me’ after farting. With actual survival tips, illustrations, and photos of Forrest showing off his wilderness, this book is a survival guide for everyone who thinks that the end is near and wants to embrace it rather than running for the hills. From eating in the wild to fighting dirty in a world that looks like Mad Max, this book is for people who look forward to the end of the world because it will allow them to stop wearing pants once and for all.

I can see everyone else sitting in front of their pc
going ‘man I ain’t touching that one with a ten foot pole’ so allow me; WTF?
It looks like he’s about to scream ‘Pigsy!!!’ & fly off on a cloud..
Be like water..

I give Forrest props. He’s going to become the Mick Foley of the UFC.
- He already has a guaranteed job & love because of his first Bonnar match.
- He has his own shtick.
- . . . and no matter what asterisk or excuse people may offer, he’s beaten some BIG names in the game.
This cover is hilarious.

I'll buy this book on the merits of the cover alone.
… As long as how to fight Anderson Silva doesn’t fall under his definition of “shit going down”.

If the apocalypse involves fighting Anderson Silva we are all fucked.

Just lie on your back and he’ll run away.

I'm pretty sure for the apocalypse soccer kicks and stomps will be allowed.
Just get a Chael Sonnen mask maybe he will ignore you existence.
I'm a lover not a fighter
Dunno; he didn’t use them in Japan when he had the chance…

I went in skeptical, and it was pretty damned amusing.

Gotta like a meat cleaver on the cover with a mushroom cloud.
And he’s going after the cave man demographic. Geico ads in the future?
Not the biggest fan of Forrest, but that might be the most epic book cover I’ve ever seen.

Looks like my Conan Halloween costume from a few years ago.

Didn’t read the first book but after reading the comments I may have to. Forrest is hilarious.

I wonder that all the time
When I saw him in person it was freaking unbelievable. I am 6’2" and was about 270 at the time. He made me feel tiny.

I can't wait!
This dude could retire and just write books from here on out and I’d be happy.
