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...
