This Slippery Floor Warning Sign Looks Like a Banana Peel

Now that's a useful AND ap-peel-ing sign!

That's the Banana Cone, a bright yellow "Caution Wet Floor" sign that warns passers-by of slippery floor. Surely you've seen such a sign before, but this one is shaped like a banana peel! Talk about a universal sign of slipping!

You can get some from Amazon, if you're bananas over things that look like bananas.

I don't know how accurate I would call this, as seems much more on the aesthetic side. But the Rayleigh-Taylor instability occurs on scales all the way from coffee cups up to light year sized nebula, allowing for all sorts of structural parallels between deep space and every day life. The movie The Fountain also made heavy use of this, using a lot of macro photography and very little CGI. Regardless, the results are quite cool and pretty.
