I owned a 68 Toyota FJ55 Landcruiser. Was driving 60mph on interstate when I heard a huge bang and the truck started vibrating violently. When I got to the shoulder and took a look at it, a metal fan blade had broken off, sliced cleanly up thru the radiator tank, thru the hood and out into the atmosphere. Never did find it. Glad I wasn't leaning over the fan when it let go. I was astonished how the loss of one fan blade made the whole truck shake so badly. I thought a rod had let go.
