Solid Proof, Internet users are idiots
[link to news.uk.msn.com]

A man who fell seven storeys to his death from an Australian apartment balcony was participating in the internet craze of "planking", police said.

Planking, increasingly popular in the country, involves people lying flat on their stomachs in various and sometimes dangerous settings and then posting photographs online.

Queensland State Police Deputy Commissioner Ross Barnett said the dead man, aged in his 20s, fell from a balcony railing in Brisbane while a friend photographed him before dawn on Sunday.

The man's name has not been released pending notification of his family.

He was previously charged with trespassing over a photograph on the internet of him planking on a police car.
"There is a mill which grinds by itself, swings of itself,
and scatters the dust a hundred versts away. And there is
a golden pole with a golden cage on top which is also the
Nail of the North. And there is a very wise tomcat which
climbs up and down this pole. When he climbs down, he
sings songs, and when he climbs up, he tells tales."

Its healthy to be somewhat concerned about heights.
I have known pilots who would not hang off ladders.
