Plank WHATTTT???

This is the conversation between me and my mum last night ..
MIA        : Mama,I got to do an assignment. Have you heard of Planking?


MAMA   :  Mesti la mama tau..ingat mama bodoh sangat ke? *laughing but not sincerely*


MIA       : Pelik-pelik kan orang sekarang ni. I've made a research and read an article about it. What      the F*ck?(mind my language.This is just my everyday language) At first, they seems weird to me to do such activities. what kind of hobby is that?Attention Seeking much?. *quiet for 5 second and continue back the conversation* BUTTTTTT...i find it cool after that..nak jugak la mama buat planking!nanti tangkap gambar and post kat facebook. Malaysian style of Planking!


MAMA : You should try!I want you to try!This is what mama don't understand about youngster nowadays. Semua into technology, gadget la, pi sana sini. Kita hidup memang zaman technology tapi mama still respect orang yang live in today's modern world and still maintain the culture of bercucuk tanam ni.Tak sayur, maybe bunga kat garden tu. You save the earth and it's a part of exercise tau bila do planting.


MIA   : *CRICKET SOUNDS* 



The above conversation is REAL!  Me and my mum have a chat in the hospital around 1am+ since my mum couldn't sleep and i got no choice to stay awake just to check on her. So, just to create a conversation, I talk about planking. Many of people out there still don't know what is Planking..Including my mum! *my mum is too cute...agree?? *


What Is Planking? 
According to the dictionary, the art of planking is to lay horizontally across any object or the ground with their arms on the sides, aiming to occur in any daring situation or a brotherly of core strength.



The rules of planking are simple. A person must lie and facing down, palms flat against your sides with your feet together and pointing at the floor. Points are awarded for an original location and for the number of spectators and participants involved. That person must (obviously...of course!) get someone to snap a photo of that person planking. Without a photo, , you're just a person lying down. (waste of time pose and no picture taking??seriously?haha). This planking describes variously as a global participatory art project, the lazy man's free-running, a pointless internet crazy which it is becoming an IN-IN thing on the web and it is also known as the new Flash-Mobs.

I think this planking picture is cool! 
The reason why people planking and take a photo of it because planking is usually recorded and uploaded to social networking sites to gain kudos for the level of comedy, aesthetic or endangerment accomplish in any execution. By doing so, people will know you more as i'm myself will called this type of person as Attention Seeker.It is just like the act of laying on anything to fit in and look like a retard while someone take a picture of you..IT has becoming a stupid internet sensation..Muahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
This is what you need to do when you're performing a plank.
1/ You must always lay face down, ensuring your face remains expressionless for the duration of the Plank.

2/ Your legs must remain straight, and together with toes pointed.

3/ Your arms must be placed by your side, held straight and fingers pointed.

4/ You must make it known that you are Planking. Saying 'I am Planking' usually get this across. Sternly announcing it will ensure a good result.

5/ Your safety should always be considered. Properly thought through Planking procedures should always go to plan. Never put your self at undue risk.

6/ Every Plank that is captured must be named.                                                  (courtesy from the web) :D



Probably, planking can be the most stupid thing you will ever see in this world. But not to me.I've seen and
experience worst than this. (Let me just keep it to myself. Its's for me to know and not for you to find out)

If you see something stupider than that, you can kill yourself.. I mean, literally and also reality. This planking activity has increasingly popular in Australia. Yeah, i think it stupid, silly and yet, it's a fun hobby to do but sometimes there are people who trying to think out of the box by creating an AMAZING *yes,i speak sarcasm* planking post that can be very dangerous to themselves. This is what i get from the net about the case that happened caused by planking.. 


THIS IS NOT THE VICTIM IN THE NEWS.
p/s : this guy still survive until today. *clap clap clap clap*

"Australian police say a man who plunged seven floors to his death from an apartment balcony was participating in the Internet craze of 'planking.'...Queensland state police Deputy Commissioner Ross Barnett told reporters that the dead man, aged in his 20s, fell from a balcony railing while a friend photographed him before dawn on Sunday in Brisbane city." - Washington Post, May 15, 2011.
Here I will include some of the interesting picture of Planking..
