Planking 

When one lies on their stomach with their hands directly at their sides and with their head pointed downwards. This is done for fun, and the point is to come up with creative places to do it, such as on top of a chimney or over public restroom stall(s). Pictures of one planking make ideal profile pictures.

Planking 

The absolute stupidest shit ever. Come on, who finds this entertaining? I'd rather get my face ground off with fine-grit sandpaper. Slowly.

If you were wondering what it actually is, it's just a bunch of wierdos who have nothing to do but find the most weird-ass places to lay face-down. I saw this guy planking on the top of a McDonald's sign once. Just don't plank, it's so stupid and makes you look like a loser. Don't even get me started with owling.

A stupid "sport" invented by Australians, it involves lying on your stomach while holding a plank form. This is often attempted in dangerous places to prove that this lame sport is not so lame. A few people have died, yet people still go crazy for this "sport".
Kangaroo Australian: Hey lets go planking on dangerous things.

Koala Australian: Planking? You mean that stupid "sport" that Australians do where they lie on their stomachs and lay on weird things?

Kangaroo Australian: Yes, that "sport"

Planking 

Planking is the art of lying down with a stiff body on any random object. Planking originated in Australia and has now become popular. Planking is an evolution of parkour, it is for people who cannot do parkour and want to look "cool" by taking pictures of themselves planking. Planking is pointless, if you want do something useful, learn parkour.
Kid: "Yo' check out this picture of me planking."

Friend: "Oh, you're cool."

Kid: "Thanks, I know."
