The Ceiling fan is quite a nice invention as it can actually save you on your energy bills if you use it over air con..

The ceiling fan is used for many different things including the obvious keeping the room cool as well as suicide, a hat and the possible urban myth of beheadings..

So how on earth does someone end up wearing one of these for a hat? Well I lied a bit about the hat, I am really talking about the fan falling on somebodys head and seriously hurting them..

The fact is that many people choose to take thier own life by using a ceiling fan. It is often used as a hanging point for people and is seen in many films as well..

The biggest myth about the ceiling fan is that it can actually behead somebody. The reason for people thinking this could be because it is shown a lot in the media.. The television programme Mythbusters proved that by using a replica dummy of the human head that the blade would certainly tear the throat open which of course would lead to death but the fan could not actually behead anyone, which asks the question, where does all of this stuff about fan heaters and ceiling fans originate from?

Most likely from a film director wanting to get a bit of a shock from an audience after all this is what they are paid to do. The only thing you will get if you come neck first into one of these fans is a modern “Nearly Headless Nick” and not a full beheading..

There are more uses for the ceiling fan than faults just like portable humidifiers and air filter can actually be more useful to you than deadly. So why not actually go out there and purchase a ceiling fan, they are pretty useful and will not do you any harm, most of the time
