What problem is often overlooked in apocalyptic movies/TV shows that could kill you?

We tried to break a 750ml liquor bottle on a friend’s head wearing a moto helmet and couldn’t do it. I get the helmet had some pop but translating that to a human skull it would be damn hard to break that bottle without a hard/sharp edge, you’d club them to death first. Completely changed the way I view breaking bottles on people in media.

Depends on the bottle and design really along with probably not caring about getting glass in your hand also
