Seems like the bizarre internet craze for planking is over. Owling is the latest trend sweeping across workplaces around the world.
Owling, believed to have started in Australia, consists of nothing more taxing than crouching on one's haunches and staring into the middle distance like the nocturnal birds.
Participants then take photos of themselves and post them on Facebook or on other social networking sites, reports the Daily Mail.
However, do be wary of your chosen planking destination: an overzealous planker in Australia got arrested after choosing to plank on the trunk of a police car.
Young hooligans and bored teenagers aren’t the only ones who have taken to this trend though.
Australia’s own star rugby player, David Williams, celebrates his tries (the rugby equivalent to a goal) with—you guessed it—a plank.
That’s right, right in the middle of the rugby pitch (aka: field) he lays down, toes and fingers pointed, for a good 30 seconds in total and complete celebration.
I know by now you’re just thinking that the land-down-under is super weird.
Who cares if you and all your friends laid across all the stairs on an escalator and have a picture to prove it? Big deal.
Not so fast. Americans, famous ones too, are now partaking in this new trend.
NBA player Dwight Howard was recently shown on national television to have been caught planking. He chose a car, restaurant counter, and even a museum to show off his 6-foot 11-inch long plank.
Katy Perry planked on a boat on the 4th of July, and uploaded her photo evidence to Twitter.
Singers Justin Bieber and Chris Brown have also been photographed planking recently on top of a boat and a round bookshelf, respectively.
