Tim Prebble read an article about a Guinness World Record for loudest apple crunch, turns out the Sweet Tango apple variety is known for maximum crunch due to having cells twice the size of regular apples. So Tim got some and recorded high rez bites and cracks. Then some hangry zombie bites.

My very first car was a Ford Escort MK1 – reliable, repairable but not exactly high performance… But the tyre jack that came with it was particularly useful for weapon foley. Years later Tim remembered this fact, sourced one & we used it for performed sound FX in a few film projects. Now you can too if it suits your project.
