There was little reason for the sudden rise in popularity of the planking phenomenon, but the concept featured on the Blow Facing site could be the newest thing.
The crazy antics of people who put their flexible faces under a hand dryer result in the funniest photos. Conveniently compiled in this encouraging home-base of blowfacing.com, they give out prizes to some of the more creative submissions. The blog stands by the hilarious concept, citing it safer than planking, a potentially dangerous pastime. Photos can make use of leaf blowers, hair dryers or even really strong air conditioners to be featured on the site. Pet-owners are encouraged to participate in the game as well!
Join the BlowFacing movement -- college students, you know you have little else to do.
