THE FAN OF DEATH!!!
- Is it true?
- Do you know
of anyone who died because of this?
- How does it kill you? "It
sucks all the air/oxygen out of the room"
* What?
Where does the oxygen go? All the fan does is move air. you
could hermetically seal a bedroom and you'd last 24hours
easy.
"It lowers
your body temperature and you die":
* What
about the fact that it's colder in your room in the winter
yet you don't die?
"It
dries out your skin and you die"
* Death
by dry skin? Too stupid. have you ever woken up thirsty and
wanted a drink? Exactly - your body would wake you.
"The
wind/breeze goes down your throat stopping you breathing"
* A
5mph wind?? Have you ever walked around in a storm? You lived
right? |
