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.
Its not an event that happened to me (or watched it happen). However, it occurred to my friend (my friend happens to be there) and thought it might be a considered a 'coincidence'. The story is that a woman together with here child was hit and killed by a car. While crossing a street to watch/save someone who is trying to commit suicide by throwing a himself off of a bridge on the road. The road is not know for a lot of traffic before. The man was saved by on lookers but the woman and her child were dead on the spot. Is it a coincidence?
