Solution

This happens due to friction. The surface of banana peel is very slippery which means there are few irregularities and hence friction decreases and we tend to slip and fall. The friction between the banana peel and the ground is less than our feet to the ground . So when we suddenly step on a banana peel the frictions makes our feet and the center of mass of our body moves making us difficult to be balanced and may make you fall down.
