I am willing to bet the chances are much higher than 1/365. Their are usually sexual patterns in a relationship. Their are more babies born in certain months regardless then when you factor in it is the same couple having the baby. Same anniversary same climate, same birthdays etc. I would guess it is 1/200

The amount of possible ways to arrange a deck of cards is 52!. That's 52*51*50*49...*1, which equals 8.0658e67 or 80658175170943878571660636856403766975289505440883277824000000000000.
I don't believe you. Since you brought it up, I am requesting that you get a deck of cards and arrange the cards in a grid in each possible combination and post a pic of each combination to this thread. Start a new thread when you get finished so that someone can verify. Thanks.

Drink it. I imagine you'll be tired from having just walked the equator

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + ... to infinity = -(1/12)
That's right, the sum of all positive integers is a small negative fraction.
false. the answer is +infinity according to the laws of math....which they didn't use in that video

My daughter and I were born on the same day should I buy a lottery ticket?

No it isn't. That's one of the worst mathematical "proofs" I've ever seen. I'm almost positive they made that video as a troll and damn did they ever nail it.
Look up Ramanujan Summation.
That video plays fast and loose with different summation methods. They're correct in showing that there exists a way to sum the infinite series of 1+2+3+4... = -1/12, but it ain't your daddy's definition of a sum.

Damn, you got me. This was plausible until we realized there is no where to put the water.

My mind is wired for deep thought, not snap decisions. Sadly. I am always enthralled by stats, but suck at them. Here is a popular one. It's sort of legendary I don't know if it's true. Two college kids party the night before and miss their exam. they have to come up with an excuse and they both say they had a flat tire on their way home from an event.
The professor separates them and says okay just answer one question which tire?
What are the chances they get it right?
1/4.
They don't need to get it right. Their answers just have to match, in which case the professor accepts their story.
Happened in Dr. Bonk's chemistry class at Duke. He confirmed the tale in general terms but said there are some embellishments in the folk legend.

Well, in the OP, the sun nor the ocean will cease to exist before you're even off the beach for the first time.

Did you know that if you stretched your intestines into a straight line you’d be as tall as the Empire State Building?

Use them to put out the fire at the top of the stack of paper.

When trying to walk around the equator you would fall into the ocean and drown, which negates your theory.
