understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.
Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.
When I was about 10 years old, we went on holiday to Noosa. I didn't realise until it was too late that I'd left my bank keycard in my shorts pocket when going for a swim at Main Beach. A few days later I was digging about at the back of the same beach when I felt something buried about 30cm under the sand. Sure enough it was my card which I promptly placed back in my shorts pocket.
