Is there statistical credibility to the idea that any one rare experience is unlikely to happen to any one person, but at least one rare experience is likely to happen to each person?
I’m picturing the math as a very large set of bell curves where most people fall somewhere in the middle, but each person is likely to be an outlier on at least one.
If you are in a room with 22 other people, there is a 22 in 365 chance one of them shares your birthday. Relatively unlikely. But there is a 50% chance there are two people in the room that share a birthday. Much more likely.
