OK, I'm living with a K-girl now and of course I've heard about fan death. But get this, she tells me if I leave my fan on for too long it will BLOW UP. If I ever leave the room and the fan is left on I get scolded. Now computer and lights, no problem.

So is it true? Is this the reason for all those fires happening across Seoul? The world? Oh my, why do we even tolerate fans in our lives? Is the extreme danger even worth it?

Well, even if something else started the fire, if the fan was left on it will fan the flames so your house'll burn down faster!

Troll,

Points for trying to spread a new rumor but your fan isnt powerfull, I sugest you dont buy any more Rudra rumors. They are little and cheap but weak.

One of the covers flew off a vacillating fan on the ceiling in the classroom the other day. The boys had been cleaning the fans the day before and hadn't put it back together correctly. The high-powered fan blades went flying across the room and just barely missed a student's head.

Of course, I made a joke about fan death.
