OUGD403 Research - Brief 1

Research - Banana's and humour

Banana peels have been a staple of humour 
and comedy for 100’s of years the reason 
they came about to be humorous was 
because in the 19th century slipping on banana
 peels was a great hazard to the public when
 the bananas start to decay they become slimy
 and almost slippery so standing on one of 
these bad boys is going to send you flying 
with some possible broken bones, but it is 
almost comedic imagining someone slipping 
on something so un-harmful so again from my 
primary research I guess it refers to laughing at 
other peoples miss fortunes, a great comedy to
 watch that shows this is my favourite comedians
 “Laurel and Hardy”.
