They could always be hired as temporary speed bumps for road works, they have the obvious qualifications.....

I'm not so sure that these people have the prerequisites for thinking...not even with a potential $293 fine if they're caught doing anything illegal...

Is this thread still going....
Who cares, some people get it, others don't. Its an internet fad and will fade. I just feel sorry for the ambo's, police and the families of those who improve the gene pool by failing at it. Edit: Taken from another forum..... Quote:

Planking is old!
Many of the locals up near Broome used to plank in the middle of the road or front lawn all the time, they'd do it all night though, makes it difficult to drive home with all these speed humps in the way. Lawn mower soon wakes them up though!

I wanna see someone planking the white dividing lines on a free flowing freeway .........then I'll be impressed.......LOL
Although it sounds harmless.....you can easily see this kinda thing spiralling out of control with people trying to outplank each other with more and more precarious planking. I must admit though......I've seen some damned funny pictures.

Planking?
WTF? Never heard of it until the news story, and all I have to say is people are motivated to do some strange things, for reasons I'll never understand.

Last Friday night, we went out after work for my going away party, and in the bathroom was a guy lying face down across the bathroom vanities / sinks, with another guy taking a photo. I didn't think anything of it until I heard about the guy who died at Kangaroo Point. So now I know what planking is....

The only form of 'Planking' I'd ever heard of was by IRA supporters in Northern Ireland to scare the crap out of British soldiers. (A 6' plank being slapped down hard on a flat surface sounds remarkably like a gunshot)
