Today, my ceiling fan was rocking violently so I turned it off. I stood under it trying to figure out what the problem is, it fell on my face. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out how painful it is when your ceiling fan falls on you. FML
Today, I woke up to the rickety old ceiling fan above my bed crashing down on top of me. I'm fine, however I am now grounded until I can buy a new ceiling fan to replace the one I "broke". FML
Today, I fell off the top of my bunk bed in my sleep onto a running fan. FML
Today, just for old time's sake, I decided to jump on my bed. I ended up hitting my head on the spinning fan and knocking myself unconscious. FML
Today, I was moving into my new house. While trying to turn on the light in the bedroom, I realized I couldn't reach the string on the fan. I got a chair, climbed up, reached over, and fell badly. While writhing in agony on the floor, I looked over to see a light switch on the wall. FML
Today, after having a pretty rough day, I decided a nice, hot shower would be great. Ten minutes in, the shower head apparently couldn't take the water pressure anymore, and it flew off and hit me in the face. FML
Today, a picture fell off of the wall in the middle of the night. It hit me smack bang in the middle of face. FML
Today, while trying to relax because I'm sick and I feel like crap, the shower head attachment fell and hit me on the head. FML
Today, at work, I managed to hit myself in the face with a large sheet pan. The force made me back into a shelf, which knocked a box off the top, which hit me in the head and knocked me out-cold. I now have a fat lip, a sore head, and bruises all over from the fall. FML
Today, after vacuuming, I struggled to pull the nozzle attachment out. I yanked it too hard and it flew out, hitting me in the face and causing my head to jerk back into the wall behind me. My girlfriend had to drive me to the hospital for my concussion. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Too bad that is physically impossible. They are installed to a point where they are phyically impossible able to fall on your head. nice try though...

Wow you seriously believe that stuff can't break, be installed wrong or something snapped or tore causing it to fall. You must live an interesting life

Seriously Fml for evening bothering to read these stupid comments. The weight on ceiling fans are so ridiculous lite its not even funny. And look at physics of rotating mass well since these blades have very little mass you can actually reach up and grab them at full speed and only have a minor bruise. And if we look at the speed of descent for a ceiling fan assuming est weight of five pounds a height of eight feet I would est ( without doing the math) a fall speed to the ground of 1.8 seconds or so and to hit somebody in the head lets look at the average height of a male in their mid twenties in north america a reasonable cross section for this site. For them to get hit in the head would be again only est less then 7/10ths of a second. blink thats the speed.

physically impossible able? how about nice try with that sentence. actually ceiling fans, or even just parts of them that come loose, can unscrew due to one problem or another and fall off. plus the weight of it falling could either snap the wires or yank them down with the fall. gravity is not physically impossible
