Over on the Left 4 Dead blog, Valve's L4D team wrote a short entry detailing some absolutely insane in-game stats for Left 4 Dead 2. According to the post, the current number of Infected killed by players totals over 28 billion. 28 billion. Here are some fun factoids:
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.
Stick that in your Guiness Book of World Records pipe and smoke it.

A little help over here, please?
