The comments are great; always nice to see someone's reaction to hearing this myth.

Haha, yeah, I saw that this morning. Me and the lady had a good laugh about the thousands (maybe hundreds of thousands) who have now been clued in to this.

Isn't "Fan Death" the favorite story of everyone's friends back home?

Yes, when I first discovered it it really didn't move me that much. Then when I mentioned it to a friend back home he nearly went insane with rage.

Some witty comment on Digg said that John Lennon was the only person to be killed by a fan.

Fan Death is True!!!! Here's how it works:
1. Go out and buy the biggest heaviest mother of a fan you can get.
2. Sneak up behind some hapless victim.
3. Smack the victim over the head as hard as you can with fan.

KOREAN CSI
Hey Parksham, look at these impact marks on this skull.
Mmmm, looks like marks caused by a heavy duty fan swung at high velocity.
So what do I write on the death certificate?
FAN DEATH, Case Closed!
