Innadi Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I just thought this might be a funny and interesting topic to discuss.If anyone hasn't heard of this it is just someone lying down, face down, on the most unusual surface you can think of. You lie there going as stiff as you can, sort of impersonating a wooden plank. There has been a death from this so far, a man trying to plank on the edge of his 7th story balcony.Your thoughts?

Mirror Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Say what now? People just lie down? Sounds like extreme nap time to me. A reflection is just a distorted reality held by glass and your mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maleficus1055 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Reminds me of that thing in Germany they do where they do basically "extreme sitting", doing silly tricks everywhere to land sitting on this weird chair-like thing. If i can remember what it's called I'll post it. Tumblr. Follow me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i can remember what it's called I'll post it.Hockern! Think it's pretty [developmentally delayed]ed myself. Remember reading about the guy dying from planking in Australia I think. Reminds me of a thing a few years back where people would take an iron and ironing board to crazy places and grab a photo of them doing ironing at the top of some mountain or ironing after they'd jumped out a plane or something. Basically, the exact same thing but with ironing instead of lying down.

Ouchy Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 You can't exactly blame the guys death all on planking, the guy was drunk. And I was wondering how long it would take a planking thread to pop up... My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages.
