Thanks.

Eh, what is he some sort of weakling? I've never had a problem opening a banana the non monkey way.

Factoid:- Bananas have 5 sides but usually open with just 3.

Bonus factoid:

Bananas can be separated into three segments like orange segments.

Doesn't take much to blow his mind - did no one ever tell him that it's not necessary to shove the stem into one's mouth (at least not to peel a banana) - chopping off the stem end with a knife is even more effective.

Duh! Whatever happened to common sense.

I've never known anyone open it that way up, or with a knife for that matter.

I snap the stem but it doesn't happen very often as I can't stand bananas. I want to have a go at the other end now but it would be a bit of a waste if I don't eat it.

Peeling a banana...snap stem end, peel.

I may be hard of thinking at times, but I don't think I've ever been significantly challenged by a banana to the point where I've attempted to gnaw my way to it - especially not a ripe banana!

Guy in vid perhaps needs some help in the preparation of every day fruit bowls.

Well, my butler peels the bananas for me. I've asked him and it seems it depends on his mood. If he's in a good mood he'll peel them from the stem. If he's in a bad mood he'll peel them from the other end. How's that for a mood indicator hé?

The christian banana worshippers in the 'correct way' video are frakking idiots. The banana is one of the most man made fruits availlable. Without man there wouldn't be an edible banana.
This is what a wild uncultivated banana looks like:

Look how it's perfectly shaped to shove it up the other end of the digestive system. Look how the four ridges provide good grip for some repeat action. Clearly an atheists nightmare.
