Good or bad- The Ceiling Fan

Mythbusters Ceiling Fan

The normal cieling fan is not a bad thing at all as it can be used instead of air con..

The ceiling fan is used for many different things including the obvious keeping the room cool as well as suicide, a hat and the possible urban myth of beheadings..

So how on earth does someone end up wearing one of these for a hat? I am actually talking about the fan coming down on somebodys head, my school days had many loose fans that no one seemed to want to sit under..

There are many people that will end thier lives by using a ceiling fan. Being a high point in the room the ceiling fan is often a target for people to use when deciding to take their own life.

The fan does not have the power to behead somebody although many people think it does.. A lot of people will go along with the films they see in which people get beheaded by the fans.. The television programme Mythbusters proved that by using a replica dummy of the human head that the blade would certainly tear the throat open which of course would lead to death but the fan could not actually behead anyone, which asks the question, where does all of this stuff about fan heaters and ceiling fans originate from?

It was likely used in one film then taken and used many many times.. The only thing you will get if you come neck first into one of these fans is a modern “Nearly Headless Nick” and not a full beheading..

There are more uses for the ceiling fan than faults just like home humidifiers and Air purifier can actually be more useful to you than deadly. So why not actually go out there and purchase a ceiling fan, they are pretty useful and will not do you any harm, most of the time
