The Banana Video or the Banana Incident was a hoax started by /r/DanielLarson moderator SlimJiMorrison that sent the subreddit into a frenzy with other users playing along, strengthening the hoax. The rumor was that Daniel had done something involving defecating onto a banana and then eating it.

Daniel placed a bowl in the toilet. Same bathroom as “I’m not feeling well ”. Pooped, Daniel than took the bowl out of the toilet. Placed it on the bathroom sink. Unpeeled a banana and took a little scoop. And ate it -SlimJiMorrison[1]

The Post

SlimJiMorrison made this post On July 30th 2022, it was a post of Daniel saying "this banana is going to be so fucking good" then a cut to the Always Sunny music with the title "The July 30th incident". Users asked what the banana incident was to which SlimJiMorrison responded that it was worse than the toothbrush incident[2]

Subreddit Reaction

This post sent the subreddit into a frenzy with many users either asking for the video or claiming that they had access/saw it, despite the fact that the video does not exist. Many posts were made referencing this "incident" creating more interest in it, thus fueling the fire of this rumor.

Revealed

Just 13 hours later SlimJMorrison left a comment on his original post stating "It doesn’t exists. But let’s pretend it does" [3]. A lot of the subreddit users did not see this as they continued asking for the video, or pretending to have seen it.
