That happened to the ceiling fan in me and my wife's bedroom at around 3:30 in the morning about 2 years ago. I went from sound asleep to fight off whatever it was that was attacking us. My first thought was that a raccoon had got in and fallen through the ceiling. The blade bounced off the wall but knocked over a s#@tload of stuff that was on the nightside table and the dresser. I felt like I injected 3 redbulls into my heart, sleep was out the window. The fan itself kind of wabbles when in use and the chain eventually swung up and got wrapped around the blade, snapping it in an instant.
