It’s possible that it could come off one wing only believe it or not. It is a very delicate balance of pressure, temperature, and relative humidity.

Only in a spin when one wing is stalled. The wings generate two opposing vortexes whenever they are generating lift. In level flight the twin vortexes spread down and away from an aircraft in two expanding cone shapes, not a single cylinder shape.
