I love the way the artcile starts out with typical lazy journalist "Craze that kills" fear mongering. Planking's been around for a couple of years, I'm sure.

tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

My favorite news "Hook" I heard on the Opie & Anthony show

 

"Tonight at 11:00, could your shampoo be giving you Cancer"

 

I think it was from a NYC/Long Island are channel.

The answer is no. But we found a guy who says... well, he also says no.

 

However, two guys who read about the last guys "no" stopped reading halfway through and think it means yes!

Yeah I'm just being needlessly blunt, but how is

a thing worth dying for? :)

He was probably drunk. I don't think it was a genuine risk-benefit analysis.

I think planking is funny, cute, and harmless.

 

But it's amusing to watch people vent their anger over it. I just sit and think "why?". In what way could these 'plankers' possibly be triggering the anger centres of your brain?

More people die getting pissed off their nut and walking in front of trains than die from planking. Maybe we should ban trains.

 

In fact, this guy died while planking BECAUSE he was drunk. Ha!

How is anything 'worth' dying for?

 

I'm not trying to be an **** about this. *yeah yeah it comes naturally* But seriously, you've never been rock climbing, or shinned up the outside of a building, or careened down a snowslope or anything when there was no point whatever? I certainly have. I don't do it any more precisely because I value my rotting carcass, but I certainly have done and nothing bad happened. It's part of being a bloke, surely?

Planking is fun and totally worth buying the farm for. Id be proud to go out like that.

DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

Maybe we should start an Obsidian planking club? But since we're nerds we would only be lying on like.. our computer tables.. or an unusually high sofa..

Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

How about not? As obviously its stupid.

That's a **** reason. People do lots of things that are stupid. All the time. Consistently.

Given that, going by the rate of accusations by other members, we're all idiots anyway...

Obviously prohibition should come back.

 

I mean, is alcohol worth dying for?

That depends.. if you count it as one of the few ways Darwin's theory of evolution still works for humanity.. We've taken so much environmental danger out of the pool..so personal stupidity should have consequences.. :p

Precisely, accusations are nothing without proof, let's get this Obsidian planking session started :p

It's all fun and games when stupid people get themselves killed, not so much when they are also responsible for killing others.
