Can cutting off one of two connected laptop cooling fans make it dangerous to run?

I have a laptop cooling pad that comes with 2 fans and one of the fans is busted. If I were to cut that fan off could I still safely run the other fan? Would placing electric tape over the cut wire help?

    The danger would be in overheating from the fan not working.
