RE: Which of these unusual events was the most improbable?

in #unusual6 years ago (edited)

most are the product of amazing athletic performances that overcame the odds that they would not have occurred.

I agree! However Richard Petty’s 10 consecutive NASCAR victories in 1967 is improbable, but it obviously happened. The only question is was it luck 🍀 or was it something that helped him to get to these victories?
When it comes to “The Laura Buxton Balloon and Winning the Lottery Twice in One Day”, remember there is billions and billions people in this world and I would be surprised if that wouldn’t happen, I even think there are many more cases like this, we just don’t get to know them.
For “Fernando Tatis Hit Two Grand Slams in the Same Inning”. I totally believe it’s possible and I totally believe it will happen again. I just wish I could witness it one day at the stadium.
To demolish two building and both the wrong once. This sounds impossible to me. Wasn’t there someone inside the buildings at the time of demolition? This sounds sneaky to me. There must had been some kind of supervisor to confirm it. This one is No No.
“Man’s Lost Daughter was Behind Him in His Selfie” I always say this world is too small. It actually happened to me. Last year I met my childhood friend from my country of origin in Europe. I live in New York and he lives now in Florida, but he had three day trip in NY, he didn’t know I live in NY, and we met at the same grocery store when I actually took a day off from work. I saw him after 20 years. I just couldn’t believe it. Everything else I could see happen. With that said I don’t believe the demolition of two buildings had actually happened.
Great 👍 post!

Perfect! There's a good "small world" story. Something similar has happened to many of us. However unlikely, these things seem to happen more often that we would believe.
