Some guy at working was talking about this. We looked it up and there are rules on how to plank...

The lying down game is claimed to have been invented by Gary Clarkson and Christian Langdon in 1997[4] It first became popular in North East England,[5] then all of Britain by the summer of 2009 [6] reaching the point by late 2010 where it was described by Andrew Sullivan as "sweeping Britain".[7] The game made news in September 2009, when seven doctors and nurses working at the Great Western Hospital in Swindon, England were suspended for playing the lying down game while on duty.[6][8][9] The game has been described by some as "pointless" [3][10] and as "Parkour for those who can’t be arsed".[6]

The lying down game spread to the rest of the world where it has also been known as "시체놀이" ("playing dead") (2003,South Korea),[11][12] "à plat ventre" ("On one’s belly", France 2004),[13] "extreme lying down", (2008, Australasia)[14] "facedowns" (2010, USA and Ireland),[15][16] and Planking (2011, Australia & New Zealand).[17]

Is it part of the rules that you must wear your Harley approved riding gear or did you just get back from a ride? :D
