Actually Animals have been way ahead of us in the planking curve.



or the other way around

And one for the cat lovers

[woodrat]

Nick, that dog is obviously an OH&S minded dog making sure there is no chance of falling! Like you said way ahead of humans who tend to do planking where gravity can make them look foolish, injured or dead!
Strange...I haven't felt the need to get into this craze

Planking is old news. Apparently, the new craze about to sweep the world is...

Looks like rigor mortis well set in there.....shouldnt someone call the funeral parlour???

[Nick]

That's not rigor! That's the glass of Napoleon brandy he's all but consumed! He's bloody comatosed.

And then there's Plinking of course, everybody should take up this craze.

A relative of yours Nick? Love the big cheesy grin on her face...shes hooked.

[woodrat]

Isn't Plinking just Planking in some parts of EnZed Nick?

Yeah never thought of that John! More the North Island though, we like to think we are more 'refined' here in the south.

Youre thinking of "plunking".

Na Mate - that's "plonking"; performed by .......s

Q: First extreme planker?

A: Rollie Free, 1948 at Bonneville salt flats Utah USA, while setting a new US national motorcycle speed record @ 150mph on the first Vincent Black Lightning in his togs.

Jayzusss! Talk about combining two 'extreme' pastimes into one, either one could kill ya! The togs were good for another 10mph I take it?
Mind you if that rear mudguard gives way it'll be more than bloody chestnuts roasting in the fire, that would leave one hell of a skid mark in his crusties!

[Kim]

Any man with the balls to lay out like that in his undies on a 1948 motorcycle and do 150mph on a salt flat has plenty enough spare to absorb the wear factor with a smile in case of an accident I recon Nick.

I'd say that Rollie would be the kind of bloke that could operate with a chain and sprocket where his business is spose' to be and still get girls pregnant at 15 paces using just a short but intense stare.

The Chuck Norris of the 1940's indeed.

[Steve]

Apparently this the first Vincent motorbike to sport a rear shock absorber. Can't help but think that Rollie may have insisted on that one.

You just crack me up mate. Thanks for the laugh.

Don't thank me, the bloke's thongs didn't even blow off. He's pretty much my idol.

There not 'thongs' Liam, its callous from pulling the old vinie up on the salt...they may have come up with a rear shockie that year, but brakes weren't released until the 19'58' model...'real' men back then..

Bah! Brakes are for pussies

[Kamusur]

Those crusties could turn to shreddies if the guard gives way and he will have trouble with more than plonking.
