(Stating the obvious here, but I'm going to go ahead and post anyway) The planking by the Santos guys...now that is just stupid.

I'm not so sure. Firstly, he might have some kind of safetly line on, but it is hard to tell. Secondly, there is probably some kind walkway beneath him, just out of shot. So, not that stupid. Maybe.

Then again, he was goofing off at work, took photos of it, posted them on the web and so got fired. Yeah, okay, that's dopey.

Looks like two even. I'm sure he thought his argument would be, "I took all safety precautions!"

Boss:
"Yeah, but if we don't fire you we look lax on safety fool!"

With respect to your farmyard style something like putting a live chicken on your back. Maybe sprinkle some feed on your back. That'll add zaniness and some animal interest. It'll look like you've been like that for hours or days. If you could have something like a pygmy goat standing on your back that would be spectacular.

For the non-farm yard effect something like a potted plant would do it. The squirrels in my yard would do it for a walnut. Perhaps a dog just sitting.

Hey, thanks Spuck! It's inspired us to go out and try out some of those today. We're pretty new to planking - I look at some of the planking sites and think - shit, why didn't I think of that?! So I reckon we should stick to our specialty genre. I would just LOVE to have a pygmy goat available, but may have to settle for a chook or a cat. Stay tuned...

I'm starting a campaign to warn people about planking. My slogans:

Planking: are you really that board?*

Plankers: as thick as two short ones.

Planking: get over it.

Plankers are a splinter group.

Planking: just because I did, wood you?

Plankers are not level-headed.

Planking--like wanking, but when you got a pee instead.
