The awsome Ceiling fan is not a bad thing at all as it can be used instead of air con..
However people seem to use the ceiling fan in the wrong ways including a hat, a means for suicide and of course the urban myth that is beheadings.
So how on earth does someone end up wearing one of these for a hat? Well I lied a bit about the hat, I am really talking about the fan falling on somebodys head and seriously hurting them..
There are many people that will end thier lives by using a ceiling fan. It is often used as a hanging point for people and is seen in many films as well..
The fan does not have the power to behead somebody although many people think it does.. This has been shown in many movies, television programmes and even sometimes in the general media. 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?
Most likely from a film director wanting to get a bit of a shock from an audience after all this is what they are paid to do. So although many people have suffered their demises from the ceiling fan over the years it is very unlikely that anyone has been properly beheaded.
On a lighter note the ceiling fan amongst other inventions that include Humidifiers and air filter can actually be more useful to you than deadly.
