The Probability of Incredible Coincidence is more common than you think!

Hiya,
Apologies if this has been posted before... I haven't seen it and thought this video would be very interesting to most ATS-ers.

I have always been interested in coincidences, or synchronicity as Jung put it, but only recently, when reading Derron Brown's excellent book 'illusions of the mind', did I discover that incredible coincidences are not as improbable as I, and I'm sure many of you, thought.

I saw this video the other day and it covers the same information in a very easy to understand way.



I often read peoples comments (mostly in this and the 911 forum, but also in relation to UFO's, the Japan earthquake, HAARP and more) that an incredible coincidence is beyond the realms of pure chance; those people then think 'conspiracy', without, in my view, having a real understanding of probability.

So this video is dedicated to those who jump at 'conspiracy' thoughts before thinking that an 'incredible' coincidence might have occured. As this video shows, 'incredible', in this context, might turn out to be rather mundane in the great scheme of things.

Whoopsies, video fail. Can't wait to see it.

Great video. I liked their other video on Open-mindedness even more. I even got a new avatar from that video.

I read a great book on this topic years ago. I highly recommend it:
