planking

Introduction

planking

Task

Despite our advanced level of civilization, we’re still herd animals at heart. How else can you explain the persistence of fads? “Everybody else was doing it” is a pretty lousy excuse, but it’s all we have. Sometimes, though, the desire to participate in a trend can have fatal results. In this feature, we’ll tell ten tales of people killed while foolishly participating in ridiculous fads.

 

Process

One of the most inexplicable trends of the last few years was planking, where people … laid down. In public. So named because the position of the body resembles a wooden plank, it started in England and quickly spread via the Internet all over the world. In May of 2011, it claimed its first victim. An Australian bloke named Acton Beale was trying to plank on a balcony seven stories in the air when he lost

his balance and plummeted to his death. All over the world, people realized exactly how dumb planking was and mostly quit doing it.
