Old lady killed by a.... banana

[Fee Fi Fo Fum]

An elderly woman, who survived the Holocaust, was killed by a falling banana......


Slovenian migrant Ivanka Perko died in hospital last week in bizarre circumstances - she suffered complications after she dropped a banana on her leg.

Comical to the end, the 73-year-old old quipped to friends and family while on her deathbed: "I can't believe after all this time it was a bloody banana that killed me."


A family friend told The Saturday Daily Telegraph yesterday that Ms Perko - who was treasured by her Blue Mountains community - had been ill for several months with a condition that made her skin delicate and fine.
"She had tried to open a banana and dropped it," the friend said. "The pointy end scraped down her leg and she died from complications."

Tropical food is the tool of the devil, I tells ya. Coconuts kill more people than sharks. Some council in Australia even got rid of coconut palms in public places in case they got sued.

Friends said it was seen as an appropriate end to a unique and fruitful life.

It's so... so... isolated. Nah seriously Australia's a great place, but I did honestly feel a bit isolated from the rest of the world.

Btw, RIP.
