They can see photos just like I can. I'm not saying they did think of that, I just don't see why they wouldn't and couldn't.

It's very much a fad. It's easy to after-the-fact find images that look similar to what happened on some slave ships...or anything else that planking looks similar to. These people were probably just thinking "oh how cool to be still on a ladder/in some water/on each other's backs...don't move...." Yet, since there are millions of brains and we don't all think alike, it is possible...yet unprovable...for some people to intentionally imitate photos of slave ships. I'm neither selling nor buying that just yet.
Speaking of (tongue in cheek) after-the-fact:
