Planking

[buttons]

"Planking is the act of lying face down with arms to the sides of the body, in unusual public spaces and photographing it."

does anyone play this or what's your thoughts on it? my cousin has a full album dedicated to it and apparently a german reporter asked him for permission to put one on his show. i'll give you an example of one of his:

that's planking on a small ledge above the stairs. obviously it can be very dangerous, there was a guy who fell to his death trying to plank on railings of an appartment which is just ridiculous but it can be hilarious too. i'm just looking through pictures from the facebook page:

Was talking about this at college on thursdays,

I found it highly amusing how the dude died, i generally had no sympathy either, common sense always prevails.

some funny ones tho i must admit

One of my friends does this all the time, I've been out with her when she's decided to lay down randomly in places. I think the best one I've seen is of her and another friend lying down on escalators, and someone took the picture just as the met halfway (one was going down while the other was going up). Facebook doesn't seem to want me to share it though, and I ahte print screen pictures and having to upload them

I think he knew of the dangers... The point of the game is to go against common sense and social norms afterall It was just an unfortunate death - the picture if he didn't slide off would of been great

this was around when I was in school, it was called 'The Lying Down Game' - I just never knew it would still have caught on. haha

[dirrty]

how do you even do them ;l and why would u lol
maybe i just can't tell what's photoshop or not
i find it funny how you expect it to be teenagers but there are older people on jobs etcetc doing it or when people lie in the middle of a street with loads of confused people around them
