This latest teen photo trend might be the clearest illustration of the difference between Russia and America.

Skywalking is the new Russian planking, basically, but it’s also totally freaking nuts. This seems to have been going on at some level for a while, but the trend is growing in popularity.
Here’s a video of one of the above-shots being made, but there are tons more on YouTube. They’re breathtaking.
(really WATCH the video. It is FUCKING crazy)
