Planking

The act of lying face down on an object while remaining rigid much like a plank of wood. Often, a photograph is taken of this act and posted on social media outlets. Often performed by lying on objects which are either completely awkward or dangerous, such as a basketball hoop or the middle of a road. The origins of planking can be traced back to the "lying down game" which has its roots in Japanese Anime.

Kyle: "But I will get so many comments on this picture of Facebook!"

Mike: *bertstare*

Planking

When an individual person lays down, in a straight, face first position in an unusual place, whilst someone else takes a picture of this. These pictures are often used as profile pictures. Very popular in Australia, although frowned upon because of an unfortunate death involving a multi-story apartment and a window ledge.
