where does slipping on a banana peel come from
Banana peel Banana peel is also part of the classic physical comedy slapstick visual gag, the "slipping on a banana peel".[12][13] This gag was already seen as classic in 1920s America.[14] It can be traced to the late 19th century, when banana peel waste was considered a public hazard in a number of American towns.[15][16] Although banana peel-slipping jokes date to at least 1854, they became much more popular, beginning in the late-1860s, when the large-scale importation of bananas made them more readily available.[17][unreliable source?] Before banana peel jokes came into vogue, orange peels, and sometimes peach skins, or fruit peels/peelings/or skins, generally, were funny, as well as dangerous.[17][unreliable source?] Slipping on a banana peel was at one point a real concern with municipal ordinances governing the disposal of the peel.[18]
Blister Friction blisters are caused by excess shear stress between the surface of the skin and the body. The strata of skin around the Stratum spinosum are most susceptible to shear. As the Stratum spinosum tears away from the connecting tissues below, plasma from the cells diffuses out. This plasma solution helps new cells divide and grow into new connective tissues and epidermal layers.
