Mayan apocalypse: panic spreads as December 21 nears
Fears that the end of the world is nigh have spread across the world with only days until the end of the Mayan calendar, with doomsday-mongers predicting a cataclysmic end to the history of Earth.
Ahead of December 21, which marks the conclusion of the
5,125-year "Long Count" Mayan calendar, panic buying of candles and
essentials has been reported in China
and Russia,
along with an explosion in sales of survival shelters in America.
In France
believers were preparing to converge on a mountain where they believe aliens
will rescue them.
And in this country, people seem to thrive on the
possibility of disasters. Americans were so impressed with the most
recent disaster that they re-elected it.
