I figure we do it by default when flying hang gliders — it's one of the few advantages we have over paragliders!

students and idiots apply. And we won't mention the plank that decided to do it on a hotel balcony, no doubt after a few beers.
He fell off and died by the way... probably the first of many.

Another guy died yesterday after planking on top of a car and getting thrown off head-first into a wall. Yeah, Darwin would be saying "See? I told you."

Haha i think its great! its idiotic, simple, creative and good to see people adding a little spice to their everyday boring lives. Sure one or two people take it a bit far and kill themselves, maybe intoxicated, halfwits etc- but that happens in alot of things people do.

I think good on those people having go and living alittle. How many outsiders would look at a HG/PG crash/incident in the media and say 'thier crazy, i dont know why they would do it'?

People seem to be taking this planking thing quite seriously...

This notice is actually quite funny when you replace the (Pl)'s with (W)'s..... Mr. Green

Hey,

I saw a number of people planking at Lookout this weekend after the party at the LZ. No wait, I think they were just passed out! chairshot

Ok, were on track for the formation of the Federal Planking Administration,
Part 103, and the United States Hang Gliding, Paragliding, and Planking
Association, with insured Planking sites, rating systems and opportunities
for instruction!
