How to: Replace an Entire Ceiling Fan

Just note that I, a humble one man team, crafted this video using my spare time with the express goal of sharing knowledge for those with inexperience. If you would have told me this video would someday be the third result when you search "how to replace a ceiling fan" on the internet, I would've never believed it. NO MID-ROLL ADS.

Questions? that's cool. I might be able to help. Depends on the fan. Also, check the instructions if you have them.
Note: I now have a video detailing the installation of a ceiling fan remote to cover that process more in depth:    • How to: Add a remote to (almost) any ...  

I used music from DJ AG in this video. If you don't subscribe to him immediately, someone will break into your house and steal your ceiling fans:    / @djag  

Whoever disliked the video is jealous of my badass ceiling fan

This is by far my most viewed video. Common questions answered here:
-The blue fan is a Hampton Bay Cameron II Plus manufactured somewhere in the late 90s.
-The old fan is a Craftsman 52" of some sort, don't really know
-The old fan is not for sale; my grandparents wanted to keep is as a back up.
-I acquired the blue fan from an old house I no longer live in. I took it with when I moved out and replaced it with a different fan. I couldn't leave such a beauty behind.

-The video has about 1,000,000 views, which is completely beyond my scope of comprehension. What an incredible milestone! Thank you everyone for stopping by!
