Extremely detailed video explains how many sides a banana really has

It's the question that's kept us all up at night.

Well, maybe not. But like most explorations of scientific theory, the road to the answer is the best part. Based on a question a viewer lost during pub trivia night, British evolutionary biologist and science YouTuber Dr. Sally Le Page sets out to solve the age-old question — how many sides does a banana really have?

She employs all areas of the scientific method (including throwing 280 bananas at a comedy club audience to have them help count the sides.) Eventually, she arrives at a conclusion we think you'll find very a-peeling.
