They call him Banana George.  American George Blair eats 4 bananas daily and barefoots.  He says; he gets energy from the bananas and his real occupation is banker.

Banana George started skiing at 40 and found himself barefooting at the age of 46.  Competing in many barefoot competitions in the States, George won many prizes.  Banana George was also listed two times at the Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest barefooter.

George Blair says he established Shrewsbury Bank, a bank with 14 branches at New Jersey.  But the turning point of his life came when he was 40.  After breaking his hip bone at an accident, George starts to pass his days on water.   Then he envy the people who are waterskiing and he starts to take skiing lessons without telling anything to his instructors...

Blair says he feels very well while he is barefooting, because he says "the best position is always the right position."
