There was a man in Ukraine who operated a train for a living. He showed up to work one day extremely drunk and starting hitting people on the tracks, killing a few before he was caught and arrested. State law deemed that death via the electric chair was an acceptable punishment for his deeds. The day he was put to death, they asked him for any last meals. His only request a single banana. They obliged, gave him his banana, and put him on the chair. The chair was activated, and to the executioner's surprise, nothing happened. The man was still very alive. They were perplexed, but due to local law, they could only do the chair once on him per crime. After being released, the man went back to operating his train. Another day, he got very drunk again, got on his train and started killing more people. He was caught again and everybody jumped on the idea of giving him the electric chair treatment again. Once again, they asked him what his last meal would be. Once again, he simply said he wanted a single banana. They obliged. He ate it, got on the chair, and once again did not die when the executioner turned it on. He was then released again. Wisely, the police kept a close eye on the man in an attempt to make sure he didn't operate any more trains. A few weeks later, he got shitfaced, started driving a train again and killed MORE people. Police found him sloppy drunk throwing up on the floor. They decided to try the chair once more. They bought a brand new one and tested it with various other criminals. He asked for a banana as a last meal once more. Scientists checked everything about the fruit they gave him, before giving it to him. He ate it, sat in the chair again, and they activated it. He didn't die again. He was still there, looking at the floor in sadness. The officials and onlookers were perplexed, angry and baffled. They all bombarded him with questions. The authorities asked him ""How the heck are you avoiding death by electric chair with a single banana?"" ""It's not the banana, sir. I'm just a bad conductor.""
