No it is the same odds for every flip
So by the odds of flipping tails once, and flipping it 100 times in a row is the exact same.
Got it.

I think he's saying the odds for each individual flip are 50/50.
The probability that you do it 100 times in a row are 1 in 1,267,650,600,228,229,401,496,703,205,376.
I feel pretty confident on this as I recall reading this from Marilyn vos Savant years ago but my track record today has not been great, as you can testify.
