Ahhhhh! Almost got taken out!

Sitting in my room getting ready to play a little PS2.  All of a sudden,  Grrrrrr,  KURCHUNK!  FOOP FOOP FOOP FOOP!  The ed Ceiling fan fell!  It was on and hanging by the wires!  I jumped up just as it fell and destroyed itself! 

Looks like I'll be going to walmart tomorrow for a new fan!

Are you O.k ? I ve seen many people severly injured because a Ceiling fan tries to cut their heads. An old teacher at the school installed one of these but when he turned on for testing (and at the higher speed...) it wents out of control and destroyed all the windows.....and our bags....

well, i guess im a nut, but before the jackass movie came out, my friends and I were doing those kinds of stunts, and i wanted to have a ceiling fan on full speed, and jump through it
It's Gumby's fault.

Oh, the jackass movie....my friends and i were doing some stupid stunts too after that. One of them was get out of the car moving at 35 km/h and try to pass the front of the car running (we tried 40 km/h but was nearly impossible to return to the car), changing positions the driver and the passenger.....

 Another stupid , very stupid action was resisting the most voltage possible with an AC 12V transformer in group............

Looks good, maybe you should attach a safety cable to it.

It's Gumby's fault.

LOL!  Josh thought the same thing!  No,  they are Reveal 100w bulbs.  They look more like daylight.

Safty cable,  good Idea,  but with my luck it would swing around and get me!
