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.

My friend was telling me how well she can braid hair on facebook messenger, so I asked her if she would braid mine and she said she'd do them anyway I want. We stopped talking, then about 45 minutes pass and we both apparently searched for pictures of intricate braids on google and sent each other the exact same picture simultaneously.
