The 'Banana Man' meme originates from the 2005 music video by the indie rock band Tally Hall. Known for its avant-garde visuals, tribal face paint, and nonsensical lyrics about a banana-selling spirit, the video became an early internet sensation and has since found a permanent home in niche meme communities. Its revival is often driven by 'shitposting' culture, where the surreal nature of the song is used to create unsettling or absurd content. Users often pair the 'Do you see banana man?' lyrics with distorted imagery or ironic captions to emphasize the chaotic and fever-dream energy of the original work.
