I really enjoy bananas, but not when it's stabbing me through the chest and in the eye like this funny 'Aliens' parody by The Clones. Aptly named Banana Motherf**ker, this [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-underdogs) video is actually a trailer for a proposed mini-series by the Portugal-based production team.

Perhaps the most startling thing about this serial-killing banana video by The Clones is the fact that it's so incredibly graphic in its depictions of internal organs bursting from the victim's body. And you know a banana's lethal when the mushy yellow fruit is capable of stabbing someone through the eye.

Next time I eat a banana, I'll be sure to chew it thoroughly to ensure it doesn't come back to attack me.
