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.

I have 2 sons each married to girls who have older half brothers. They all lived in different parts of the country. One day my eldest son phoned to tell me his wife's brother had been found dead in his car in his garage having died from the exhaust fumes. An hour later my youngest son phoned to tell me his wife's brother had hanged himself - all on the same day.
