The first thing that comes to mind is not wanting to waste energy by leaving the fan on overnight, but what do I know.

The only way my fan would ever kill me is if someone walked up to me at night while I am asleep and beat the sh*t out of me with the fan...

I think this is just an urban legend. The explanations on the Wiki page really dont make much sense.

i would bet that statistically, theres more chance of you dying like that in the video, rather than this whole thread :p

At first I thought that koreans were afraid of the cover flying off and the spinning blade flying and decapitating you. That seems more plausible than their theories ;\

I'm gonna be one of the dozens of people who have already said this.

I always sleep with my door closed, and I've had atleast 4 different fans in the past 6 years, all of which, used usually without the window open, at varying speeds, in varying directions. The amount of times I have died are absolutely negligible, somewhere between 0 and 1.

I keep these fans on 24/7, which explains the high replacement rate, as they seize up or break. I know, I'm a pox on the planet by keeping the appliance running 24/7, with very little meaning or reasoning behind it. I'm just used to the white noise. I hate the noise from my computer, as they are inconsistent. Fan noise is where it's at. So consistent and relaxing.

I don't know where I heard it or if it was even true but if you're in an enclosed space, wouldn't you die from CO2 poisoning before the oxygen...deprivation...thing. Maybe it was Apollo 13...
this is my quote.
