question about bananas

does anyone have any clue as to why, when you buy fresh, green banana's and peel them the skin is thick and somewhat rigid, but when you peel a ripe one, it's thin and flimsy?

i was thinking it would be because it had dried out, but i would expect that to make it thinner (less water in it) and stiffer.
