Somebody carved a very realistic looking .45 caliber flintlock out of a banana. It looks like it could shoot.
Bananas are high in potassium, America. You need to eat them. Start carving things out of shitty foods, like hash browns or cheese cake.
Previously, people have made a trucker hat, an Alien, and lots of other intricate people/things out of bananas.
What's next? Jesus? Oh, fuck.

Zhang Heng, 22, found the starved mutt during a stop in the Sichuan province. He fed her a drumstick, and the dog, “Xiao Sa,” resolved to follow him to Tibet.
The pup ran around 37 miles a day! The team gave her food and water along the way, and occasionally helped him out with a ride on one of their bicycles.

There's a really, really happy ending: Zhang Heng, the cyclist who first found Xiao Sa, decided to give her a forever home after the race...
Apparently sports related Gotye re-mixes are becoming a meme now. This one might be the best yet.

Paulo Henrique dos Santos, a pool attendant from Brazil, wanted so much to impersonate the Incredible Hulk for a local running event that he painted himself with green industrial paint. He later found out the paint didn't want to come off, no matter how hard he scrubbed.
35-year-old Paulo Henrique dos Santos achieved celebrity status in the Villa Cruzeiro favela of Rio Janeiro, after he covered himself in green industrial paint, only to realize it won’t wash off. His intention was to dress up as the popular superhero for a running event, but since shops didn’t have the brand of paint he normally used, he decided to go with industrial paint normally used for ballistic missiles and nuclear submarines.
He took 20 baths in two days, desperate to remove his improvised Hulk costume, but had no success. As if the embarrassment of having all his neighbors laugh at him as he walked around his neighborhood wasn’t enough, photos of him and his mother trying to remove the paint went viral on the Internet.
Lucky for Paulo, this story has a happy ending. After a whole team of family and friends scrubbed him for 24 hours, the man finally succeeded in removing the green paint. Despite everything he had to go through, the wannabe Hulk says he doesn’t regret the incident…
