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.

On a hot summer day I was craving for some pie. Exactly 314 seconds later (3.14=π so 314=100π), a hundred pies fell out of the sky onto my head. Not to mention the fact that I wasn't able to eat any of'em , but it was an event bizarre as hell.
