[Self] Life Stats

It's a rare luxury to channel surf back at home. Some of the "new" channels are darn good stuff (love the History Channel and also Discovery Science). Anyway, there was this statistics science show called "Million to One". Intriguing stats stuff with deadpan Brit humour.

But its the ending that was really funny, it goes along the lines:

If you had a bad day, think of all the improbability it took to get you to exist (montage and voiceover as it goes from the comsic angle to evolution to mating) in the first place ....

Then after smiling silly and feeling really good about your own existance and self being; the host goes to say, "So, although your chances of death are about 100%, think about how statistically hard it was to get you to exist in the first place." Shrugs and walks off.

Bloody hell - brilliant stuff.
