Events are more or less likely. We offer a trip to these, the probability of which is so close to zero that much breathtaking. For this we need some knowledge about the world, numeracy and imagination. < 1. The probability that a game of "toss" coin will be on the edge, not so small as it may seem. For example, if you make a million shots, it happens about 150 times, an average of 1 every 2 days if you throw the entire year to 8 hours a day.
2. If you want to wait that stood on the edge of a coin twice, you have to throw coins at the same pace for about 35 years.
3. The chance of guessing 6 out of 45 lottery numbers is "1 in 8,145,060". Now you understand why the lottery is so beneficial?
4. likely to be killed by the tsunami - "1 to 500,000." The chances of getting "Royal Flush" in poker, too, about this band - "1 to 649 740».
5. In order for an event with a probability of "one in a million" occurred at least once in your life, you need to "try" 50 times a day. For example, if every day we intersect with 50 random people, then sometime during the life encounter with the chance meeting with that "one in a million».
6. The probability of global catastrophe for civilization as a result of the fall of a large asteroid - "one in 10 million" (though for one particular person a chance to die from an asteroid is "1 to 500 thousands", so be careful) .
7. The probability of the first attempt to find a needle in a haystack - a "1 to 100 million».
8. Is it possible to accidentally collect exploded Rubik's cube 3 × 3 × 3? Any particular arrangement has the chance to be right only "1 to 4.32 * 1019", so that the assembly may be required 26 years.
9. The probability of matching fingerprints from two different people - "1 to 1060».
10. in the universe is not so much the objects: if you just poke a random point in the universe, then what you will get something with a probability of only "1 to 1031».
11. A man never knows how to play chess, has a chance to win a grand master "to 10100 1».
12. Remember the example about the monkeys and typewriters? So, the probability of randomly print the original text of "Hamlet" is about "1 to 10,183,946." This number is in any practical sense is zero, and it will not grow any tangible even if we fill the whole universe typewriters Planck size and wait time comparable with the time of her life.
