Teenagers Are Doing the “Banana Peel Challenge”

Here’s the newest dumb thing teenagers are doing.  Some kid wanted to see if bananas are really slippery enough to make you fall if you stepped on one.  Spoiler alert:  They are.

And now more kids are trying it, and posting videos of themselves falling with the hashtag “Banana Peel Challenge”.  (“#BananaPeelChallenge.”  And here are a few more.)
