"Have one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel" = một chân đứng trong mộ và chân còn lại trên vỏ chuối -> nghĩa là trong tình huống khó khăn, nguy hiểm, sắp chết; gần đất xa trời.

Ví dụ
If they are closer to 60 and say it I feel like saying “look Toots, you’re no spring chicken either, don’t you “ma’am” me…bless your heart.” I mean courtesy (lịch sự) is all well and good, but I feel like I have one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel. But I digress (lạc đề).

Tom had a saying when asked how he was, "I have one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel." He finally slipped on the banana peel on May 6, 2023.

Most of the people dying already have one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel, corona just brought things to a head! Concentrate resources where there is a serious (nghiêm trọng) problem, but let the rest of us get on with the business of living!!!
