Slipping on a banana is one of the oldest jokes and gained popularity when it appeared in the world’s first comedy film by Charlie Chaplin. People across the world recognize this and will take precautions after seeing the Banana Cone. The most common caution signs and cones were evaluated in a perception study with 246 participants to determine the effectiveness of the delivery of the warning message. Four products were tested (2 signs, 2 cones). Results show that “Banana Cone” significantly outperformed all of the products examined, more than 12x that of standard A-Frames.
