LoL, this is another explanation...

At first the small bananas grow downwards. After a few days the bracts gradually fall away. Row after row the individual "hands" of bananas develop on the bunch. Then, with exposure to light, the bananas´growth hormones make them defy gravity an start growing upwards. In the process they bend and acquire their typical curved shape. Scientists call this phenomenon "negativ geotropsim"
