The Lying Down Game is a Facebook group, with about 15,000 members, dedicated to competing for the weirdest location to post on the social-networking site.

People have been snapped lying horizontal on Royal Mail post boxes, on narrow children's swing sets and even the engine of an airplane.

Others have joined forces to take over pedestrian crossings, and spread out on multiple tree branches.

From Stonehenge Rome and everywhere in between, can you do better?
