20 or so years ago my dad was part of some employee response team at his job. One of their training exercises involved prepping a landing area for a life flight helicopter. They worked in conjunction with the local FD as part of the training. There were all kinds of rules concerning how you moved around the chopper... because if someone got into the tail rotor, the craft was no longer considered airworthy until it could be inspected and deemed worthy of returning to service. I'm pretty sure that comes down from the FAA.
So any incident could potentially cost 2 lives... One being the person who got chopped up... The other being the person whom the helicopter was called for... 'cause that chopper was going nowhere.
I don't know how "substantial" the object has to be before the grounding rule applies... Like if a plastic grocery bag or similar makes contact... But I know for certain a human being getting "schwacked" is sufficient to cause the craft to be grounded.
Thats the policy here in the US. I can't speak to other country's policies.

Throw a bottle of bleach into the fan, duh

Road would fail!You make a good point.....
Asphalt? Motor oil?
Now, in normal world, this would just be funny.
Very sorry to hear this. But if you're going to get a sign as weird as that, remember the wisdom of Hunter S. Thompson - "When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro."Now, in normal world, this would just be funny.
But in my world, I just got back from the hospital. I had some kind of weird seizure type thing. Went to the emergency room. They did a CT of my head and found a 2.5 cm mass in my brain. Probably cancer but who knows at this point.
I get back home and this was literally what was on my screen when I turned my computer back on. Pigs fucking. Fucking pigs fucking. I'm taking this as a good omen. Life is weird sometimes.
