not sure if anyone watched it or not, but i watched an episode of 'sponge' 2.0 (i think the name of the show is) where they (koreans) actually debunked the fan death myth. they even ran tests on some guy with korean professors mentioning how fan death isnt true.

guess its time to stop knocking them for it now!

Actually, what they said on the show was that under normal circumstances, a fan could not kill you. However, they went on to say that a fan could still kill a person who is drunk, sick, in poor health, over-worked, under stress, etc. So, they still believe it can kill you, but only if you fall under one of the existing conditions listed above. This would basically include the population of Korea, so actually, Koreans will still believe a fan can kill.

Why didn't Rainn Wilson turn the lights on in his creepy rape bunker?
