A Nigerian woman, Yvonne Stanley, has taken to social media to narrate how she and her entire family survived a ceiling fan accident in the home, IGBERETV reports.

In a Facebook post on Wednesday, March 23, 2022, she revealed that their ceiling fan fell on the bed just as she and her husband were about to go to sleep.

According to her, the incident happened at exactly 11:55 pm on Tuesday with her two kids already fast asleep on the bed.

The lady marvelled at how it fell without touching the kids lying on the bed despite their 'gymnastic sleeping skills.'

She added that it fell at a spot she and her husband usually sat, it just happened that they didn't sit there as of the time the fan fell.

Her post read;

"I can't keep quiet about this o... If it had gone the other way, RIP attached to my children's photo would have been louder than this.

I've heard of casualties as a result of fallen ceiling fan, but no one saw this coming.
Last night at about 11:15pm. Right before me and hubbys eyes, this fan that was rolling fell without any fault, sound or sign.

How Almighty God arranged these kids and pushed them to one corner despite their "sleeping gymnastic skills". How neither me nor hubby chose to sit by that spot which we do most times.
Neither the sharp blade nor the Heavy Engine touched them.

See how they kept changing positions just within the period I took these shots. They could have rolled to the point where the fan fell. The spinning fan could have sliced the boy's feet. So many "what Ifs".

Once again, Our shield and our buckler stepped in.
Abeg share in our joy.
Ami ndi Owo Jesus ake yangade ( I am that person that was saved by Jesus)

Notice how peacefully they slept through it all, changing positions here and there, unaware of the battles the enemy put up against them. Na Baba God run am!!!"

You dey lead 1-0, nor worry.

I might be wrong but I don't think ceiling fan with POP is a good combo.

God saved the family oo.

Faithful God!!!! Thank God for His Mercies over them o!

I am still watchful of my ceiling fan whenever I am sleeping especially when I put it to the highest. It’s not that the fixing is bad but my mind dey dey the fan.

Thank God for the family to have escaped the ordeal

God o
Odogwu aluka

Just looked at my ceiling fan right now

God saved her.

Thank God.

God delivered my sisters from a similar incidence when we were kids.

We would lie on the floor watching cartoon network, mostly, under the fan.

My youngest sister had just gotten up from the floor to get water from the fridge when the fan fell.

Till date, they both still have a phobia for going under a ceiling fan.

God is good

Gymnastic sleep got me...

My sister kids own na Kung fu sleep style

Congratulations

Dis is nothing, bt d very act of God's preservation & deliverance!

Lives preserved, hospital bills averted!

Great Glory 2 God!

#GG2G!

Lord have mercy!
Thank God no one was hurt.
