i think planking is funny

what is planking?


"Planking is blowing up the news these day. Old people would say it's another instance of why the youth is screwed. Kids would fire back that it's the most fun you can have being still. Who's right? And just what the hell is planking?


...


Planking is the act of lying facedown for a photograph. The term planking originated from Australia but is actually just another name for 'the lying down game' (I'm not kidding). The specific instructions: to put your body face down to the ground (or table, or object, or anything) with your arms to the side. Yeah."

so at a girls night out dinner my friend juli described this new phenomenon to me (apparently, it's not that new).  enthralled by this idea, immediately i googled "planking people".  here are some of my favorite pictures...

and then, we decided to have our own planking session out on the boat one friday night.  enjoy.
