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.

in 2016 I started to see my birthday, 12/08 everywhere. I'd see it in the time, in other ways too. I remember one time I walked into target with my boyfriend and the time on all the clocks they were selling read 12:08. I always just kind of brushed it off or made jokes about it, but something about it made me feel uneasy. In July of 2016 my bf and I were on our way to a festival in PA. On our way to cracker barrell I saw 12:08 on the clock and made a joke "this is getting out of hand, it probably means I'm gonna die soon." we got out of cracker barrell and maybe 30 min into our drive on the highway my tire blew out and I flipped my car into a ditch. My car was completely totaled but miraculously we lived and made it out with barely any injuries.
