Planking is the act of lying face down with arms to the sides of the body (like a plank of wood), in unusual public spaces and photographing it. Planking started in the UK a few years ago but some Brisbane boys put it on Facebook this year and like anything viral it has become a fad.
Just plain crazy to me, a silly pastime... but lets face it, to some,.. it's an Art, or even a Sport... an accomplishment something to be proud of (especially to young people). I admit, it looks cool at first but it becomes crazier and unintelligible as it goes along. Planking in a more complex way turned out to be popular. The more heights, in a more unusual setting.. the more praises you'll get.
Recently, a 20-year-old Aussie guy plunged to his death after planking on a seventh-floor balcony in Brisbane. Sad, but to some kids, this news makes Planking more challenging and wanted. The riskier it is the more fun and adventure you'll get. An allusion why the youth is screwed nowadays.
Odd behavior by youngsters is a global phenomenon. The internet is truly becoming a gadget of a lot of oddities. People do weird stuff for attention. Who's to blame? Who else but all of us. Somehow, the depths of stupidity never cease to amaze and entertain.
What will they think of next? It is getting shallow than ever na. Please lang!
