And also, bananas are radioactive. If you ate 40.000 bananas in 10 minutes you would die of radioactive poisoning.
(me, an American) Well, forty isn't that many.
Very, very precisely forty.
Unless it's cakes. That's as many as four tens. And that's terrible.
Wasn't entirely sure that 3d.p. of precision is necessary when measuring bananas.
Would it kill you if you shoved forty thousand bananas up your ass in ten minutes?

I'm pretty sure you'd die from something else, but I'm no doctor.
From slipping on all the banana peels.
It's more in the range of 40.000.000 if I remember correctly.
The pressurized bananas that need to be sent into your system as fast as possible would probably be shot right through your skull.
