Uncanny Repetition of Same Events

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.
A few years back my father's promotion got suspended due to the mistake of his colleague. It was a big disappointment as it came and I was cursing our fate and the colleague who did that. Later on the same day I came to know that a close neighbor of mine had died due to liver failure. That was that. But now on may 22nd 2017 again due a foolish mistake of his colleague my father's promotion got suspended which is not a big coincidence (but seriously how could this happen again), and then three days later, uncannily I discover that another neighbor of mine had died on the exact same day as on which my father's promotion got suspended (on 22nd may). And the most striking part is that this time too, he died due to liver failure.
