How to Do the Superman Plank

Planking is a fad that involves lying down in unusual locations for shock and entertainment value. The concept of planking is straightforward, so once you have the moves down, you should be able to experiment with different positions and locations to execute your planking strategy. The main thing to remember when planking is that as entertaining as it can be, there are also potentially dangerous, even life-threatening, planking scenarios that should not be attempted. Use your common sense to determine whether it's safe to plank in a certain position or location, and when in doubt, don't plank it out.
