This sweet & superawesome family recently moved from Seattle to Prince Edward Island, Canada and we were watching King 5 and saw the facedown story! They were at a popular water park and it was cold, so instead of swimming… they FACEDOWNED!!
Thanks to Jana & the kids for playing our game!! We can’t wait to see the next round!!
Hey friends!! Thanks for all of the FACEDOWNS!!! You guys are the BOMBDOTCOM!!!!
Nothing makes me happier than a facedown… and this one, most of all!!! My email pen-pal and bestbud’s (laurel mcconnell) Mama, Christine Hines!! FACEDOWN!!!

Lets CELEBRATE!!! Happy iLoveFacedownsFriday everyone!!! Its been one week since our awesome on air facedown/planking frenzy and things have been ROCKIN!! We’ve received facedowns and or Planks from all over the US!! Keep’em coming friends!!
This Friday we MUST celebrate with the über talented duo Kat & Justin Speyer of Persimmon Images. (you know we love all facedowns, but there is just something SPECTACULAR about photographer facedowns right?!?)
Taken on the 99 North Viaduct downtown Seattle and I am IMPRESSED!!
Don’t act like you aren’t impressed!! We know you are!! Oh – and kids, don’t try this at home…. er… I mean on the viaduct!!
I do believe these photos will be in the history books!! Facedown History!!!
Hey ya’ll hope you are enjoying this ROCKIN WEEK OF FACEDOWNS!!!!!! I mean one every day!?! I’m freakin out a little bit!! Ellen is TOTALLY going to have to invite Laurel McConnell, Jennifer MacNiven and me onto her show!! That’s right – I said it!
So, here with us today is none other than John Becker – I can only imagine, that he was hanging out in his awesome backyard that has a POOL! (definitely not seattle!) and thought to himself… I’m going to create the FIRST EVER CLONE FACEDOWN!!!!! Well – unless he has 7 twin brothers, he has clearly been CLONED!!!
That’s right Ellen – we probably have to invite John on the show too!! ;0)
John, Thank you for playing our facedown game!! Your image is awesome and we hope you keep sending them in!!
I might be biased, but I think this is the BEST SELF PORTRAIT IN THE WORLD!!!! This girl is fun – and if you don’t know her already…well, you really should take a moment and peruse her gorgeous photography website! Click HERE

Maybe it was all of the bubbles that went straight to their heads?? or Maybe it was because they are the MOST AWESOME PEOPLE IN THE WORLD!! IF you haven’t been to Full Throttle Bottles – I suggest you GO! NOW! QUICK! The BEST specialty beer in all the land!!
If you haven’t noticed already… beer, wine, liquor… whatever the choice might be is 100% pure liquid courage to do facedowns where you may not have thought of them before. Like… on an airplane floor, or at a mariners game or on the counter at a super busy bar… or here on the top shelf of a rockin specialty beer store!!
Thank you to all of the awesome people at Full Throttle Bottles – and remember, drink responsibly!
Holy Moly – I love the excitement and all of the fabulous facedowns being sent in this week!! Thanks to the King5 News coverage that has turned into front page CNN news and MSNBC and a million other places we’ve been played all over the country!!
I say – bring it on baybee!! Send in your submissions and we’ll post your photos!!
This one came in right after we aired in Texas!!
Sent in by Shan Qureshi – facedown by DJ Adeel, from Clear Lake, Texas on the picnic table at a family gathering
BUT in proper one up-manship fashion, Shan’s brother Eddie did the facedown below at a Kroger’s grocery store!!
