Planking Death - OzChess

**Superbear** · 05-16-2011, 02:13 PM

Some young man fell to his death by planking. It did not take long for someone to lose their life taking part in this idiotic pastime. The majority of those interested in this activity have very little emotional maturity, certainly not enough to have solid judgement about what is dangerous (to themselves and others).

This is more justification that social networking rots your brains. Trying to impress your 1000 so called friends, of which 95% of them wouldn't give the time of day to if you met them face to face. Just more attention grabbing, fame seeking wanna be net celebs.

Planking isn't any more unsafe than driving a car. Done properly, there are no issues, but once you bend the rules things go wrong.

True. Anything can be taken to a stupid extreme.
