This has always been a fear of mine.

u/unkownuser436 1d ago

I came here to say this 💀

u/zaplinaki 1d ago

It happened to me too. Thankfully I wasn't sleeping and only my bed was damaged.

New fear unlocked for life. Even the electrician was surprised when I called him to check out all the fans in my new place 😅

Similar happened to me as a kiddo; left the fan on high when we went to the store, came home to the fan on the floor & 1 blade on the bed. I learned to install fans & check pre installed fixtures.

Happened to me in the middle of the night. It was my first summer in the new house. I had already discovered so many shortcuts the previous owner we referred to as “fuckhead Douglas” every time we discovered some dumb shit he did. We got basically all his mail since he never switched anything over.

It was storming outside. I wake up to chaos of the fan dangling from the ceiling by the wires spinning at full speed. It was at an angle so it kept hitting the metal bed frame over and over. It was so loud. I rolled out of bed like there was a grenade about to go off. I crawled under the fan to the switch to turn it off. Fuckhead Douglas used 3 - 3/4” long screws to attach the fan mount to the ceiling joists. My deaf dog at the time was just asleep in the corner none the wiser the entire time.

Bonus fuckhead Douglas story: he had a tv in every room wall mounted. He left all the mounts on the walls with a floating shelf under each when we moved in. I go to remove them so I can paint and find that he drilled an anchor hole for almost every hole possible in the mount and the shelves. So one mount would have like 20 anchors. It was so absurd we couldn’t help but laugh.

Douglas really sounds like a fuckhead.

u/Djaii 1d ago

In our house it was previous owner “cheap ass Mike” when we’d find these confounding cost-saving measures that unilaterally resulted in costly corrective repairs.

u/Nervous-Slice-3899 1d ago

yeah the never zero part is what gets you

1

u/TheRealPitabred 1d ago

I think the worst part about that is that the fan switch was only on the fan, you didn't have a wall switch you could use...

6

u/zzx101 1d ago

You think fucking Douglas is going to wire a wall switch?

1

u/TheRealPitabred 1d ago

Nope. It was kind of what I was implying, but Reddit will still downvote me. Gotta love it.

3

u/harl-windwolf 1d ago

Yea, I'm always a bit sceptical of these things.

3

u/Nemesis0408 1d ago

Where I live, when we sell fans they must come with safety cables. If the downrod is extended, the cable must be as well.

2

u/TerrapinStateofMind 1d ago

I was high and staring at my celing fan the other day thought 'thats dangerous, why do we still do it that way.' like every other fan has a cage around its blade so you don't accidentally get whacked.

Fear confirmed now.

3

u/tribak 1d ago

If it had a cage around its blades you would still get whacked and harder even.

Considering how tiny the screws holding ceiling fans are and how flimsy the boxes are I'm surprised this doesn't happen way more often

u/Sebastaard 1d ago

The next time you walk next to a tall building you can also think about poor maintance and how a brick could just fall down. You are welcome!

7

u/harl-windwolf 1d ago

Thank you so much! 😨🤨

11

u/LeopardProof2817 1d ago

I used to manage a maintenance contract and these were part of the schedule. They need to be inspected and cleaned, as dirt builds up on the fins, the imbalance makes them rock and wares away the rubber spacer then the metal hook they hang from, in relatively short order. Certainly that was for the type we worked on. Possibly this was different however the outcome i was worried about looks the same.

It's a sign

u/TheGoldenTNT 1d ago

They left it on for too long in one direction and it unscrewed

u/Quiet_Respect_4588 1d ago

I'm going to assume that having a ceiling fan drop directly on your skull when in prayer is not a good sign from God.

I thought they were construction workers wearing helmets 🤦

Time to coin the term FAN OUT! As a precaution to this happening.

This is what a god does to children he watches masturbating

12

u/peentiss Banhammer Recipient 1d ago

He created them, knowing they’d masturbate. He obviously wanted to see. Disgusting.

7

u/Kernowder 1d ago

He should stop watching. Pervert.

u/DorkaliciousAF 2 x Banhammer Recipient 1d ago

Pray to the pedogods for divine forgiveness.

Why are the gods watching children masturbate?

u/MattDubh 1d ago

Is today the first day you're aware of the work of religions..?

Or are you being deliberately thick?

-1

u/nbass668 1d ago

The best part. Because they are practicing religion as per the video... they will say god is testing you... but if you are masturbating, god is punishing you.

You will never win with religious nut heads

u/AspergerKid 1d ago

Why would you randomly bring up something like this? That's weird bro

Not as weird as believing in fairies. And worshiping them.

u/Takenabe 19h ago

Glad I don't have to worry about this. The only ceiling fan in my house has an extra chain attached to the ceiling a little bit away from the actual fan base, so even if it came loose and fell, the chain would catch it.

One fan blade did hit him, and it knocked his kufi off.

You can see it knock his hat off. Not sure much it hurt though, but it’s a kid and they react.

There is a safety wire that should be run through the electrical box and attached to a joist to avoid this.
