Banana: 50%. Interesting to look at. What I find most fascinating is the 50% match to bananas! Animal and plant life share so much ancient DNA coding from way back when plant and animal life diverged approximately 1.5 billion years ago.
Joshua links to a paper with a different way of describing the similarity between chimp and human genomes that accounts for insertions and deletions (INDELs) and the number is closer to 95%. The extra ~3.5% difference comes from INDELs found mostly in non-coding regions of the DNA. This extra 3.5% is the subject of the paper linked in the blogs, more on that later. No matter how you slice it the sequence differences between humans and chimps are not large. The above numbers from Chen et al.
