Quite a lot of folks have done it, even posted videos online to prove they have

This might come as a bit of a shock, but it turns out that there are some people in this world who have tried eating a banana through a pantyhose, filmed themselves while doing it, and then posted the video online for everyone to see. Besides, quite a lot of folks are still doing it.

In case anyone was wondering, these attempts at gulping down a banana through said piece of clothing aren't just sporadic episodes. On the contrary, they are part and parcel of a trend dubbed “the banana challenge.”

According to BuzzFeed, this trend has been around for about five years now, except that it pretty much failed to get loads of attention. Otherwise put, it remained kind of an underground movement for the better part of its life.

The good news is that ordinary folks who have never tried eating a banana through a pantyhose appear to have taken a sudden interest in this practice, hence the fact that old videos of people taking part in this “banana challenge” are now bouncing back and forth on the Internet.

One of these videos, dating back to February 2013, is available above. Have fun watching it, and do share your thoughts in the comments section below.
