Strange - women of 73 dies from falling banana

"I can't believe after all this time it was a bloody banana that killed me." It wasn't long after she spoke these words that 73-year-old Ivanka Perko took her last breath in an Australian hospital. "She had tried to open a banana and dropped it," a friend said. "The pointy end scraped down her leg and she died from complications."Perko's migration to Australia from Slovenia began with "nothing but the clothes on her back and a pocket full of pepper to ward off the guard dogs," said her son Izzy.i guess son may think Perko's death under such circumstances an unfitting end to a brave woman's life. But by all accounts, she is described as tough, with a good sense of humor, and I think it's pretty cool way to exit. It is, at least, much better than death by guard dog.
