I find it hilarious that my most downvoted comment ever is also my most accurate.
What a world.
For the past two decades I have spent a large majority of my working hours doing various analytics projects for some of the world’s largest government organizations and corporations. Believe me when I tell you there is nothing statistically significant about the “findings” of this post, and that it’s kind of embarrassing to watch everyone’s nipples get hard every time they see the number 17, or a date they “just know” is significant.
Last week I met a woman who was born on the same date AND the same year as I was. That's rare and the chances are approximately 365 x 85 to 1 = 1 in 31,025 (assuming that the average person lives till age 85). Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm shockingly poor at mathematics!
But the chances of two people dying on the same date are 1 in 365.25
Whether the chances are increased or decreased by being in the same family, I couldn't say. But it's definitely possible.
Not true. People who don’t understand statistics really need to not try to report on statistics.
Explain it by all means.
lol he won't
Was that a FaceBook Fact Checker?
Should gives us a source for their statement.

Rare occurrences don't need math. They are readily noticeable by the people who collectively have never experienced a single like occurrence before.
The likelihood of such occurrences are intellectually jmderstood as so rare they likely are done on purpose with planning and control.
It's spelt "likelihood".

Princess Di died in the early hours of Aug 31, 1997 in Paris.
It’s just that the publication date of the Time mag is Sept 8, 1997.
The other coincidences are strange.
Fixed thanks
Irony doesnt seem to hit your radar, shill.
Shill? Deep thinker ain't u.
Can you explain that further? I'd like to hear your words on it. I'll Google the terms I don't know...
