Banana-man: Episode 1: A day in the life of

I think that we all acknowledge that Sir Ranulph Twistleton-Wykeham-Fiennes, 3rd Baronet OBE (born 7 March 1944), is the world’s greatest and definitely the bravest, adventurer and explorer, that is until Banana Man appeared on the international stage.

Okay, so Sir Ralph may have been the first man to visit both the north and south poles, by land and the first man to cross the Antarctic by foot, but, it was only by foot and although we applaud him with a standing ovation, we cannot forget the ingenious skill and bravery of Banana Man, who crossed both poles not by foot, or by chopper, or even by a log carved into a canoe, but, he did this by shoes made entirely of banana skin. You could say he is a nutter and you might be right there. But, this four foot and ten inch tall Mexican from the remote, rural village of Zaragoza is a determined banana chomping dare devil – nothing scares him, not even plantain.

Unlike, Fiennes he did not have a supply of Kendal mint cakes to keep him going, no, he had only packs of bananas, which he hand picked himself, with the help of his elderly gran Maria-Jesus De Lopez, from the hills of Zaragoza. And, unlike Fiennes he certainly did not use a thermal vest when things got particularly nippy, no, he had only a banana skin suit which the elderly ladies in his village helped to weave together. It took them several years to do this, because they were all very old, I think the youngest lady in the village was ninety seven.

You see as far as I am concerned he is genius. A man that can survive for days on end on the love of good banana – is magic if you ask me!

So, you ask yourself what is Banana Man doing on the banks of the river Thames? Well, that’s a damn good question. You see unlike me he is a Labour supporter a Brownite. He is currently going to the houses of parliament to deliver a sack of his finest Mexican bananas, in the hope that they will provide a magic cure for the failing Prime Minster. Perhaps, these bananas will give the Prime Minster the strength he needs to carry on. Maybe the Prime Minster will do a ‘David Banner’ and turn into the incredible hulk, during Prime Minster’s Question Time. Maybe he already is the incredible hulk?

Perhaps Banana Man will convince him to join his next expedition which is to travel by banana boat, up the Thames.

Banana Man’s mantra ‘mutantur omnia nos et mutamur in illis’.
