The number of skeletons inside of a human body is statistically greater than 1.

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 24 points 2 years ago

Fuck, that's a good one

[–] ericbomb@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I like skull more, but both are great.

Of the ~100 billion humans who have ever lived, ~8 billion of them are still alive. Therefore, your chance of dying is only 92%, not 100%.

[–] Funkytom467@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

Yeah but no one of them survived the ~~116th~~ 122th year.

[–] Jimmycrackcrack@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

These things are always subject to challenge but as I understand the oldest 'verified' person to have ever lived was 122 when they died.

[–] Funkytom467@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Ho yes you're right, just checked and that was Jeanne Calment.

Who knows, at some point we might figure out how to stop/reverse aging, so your chance of dying (in the foreseeable future) is not 100%, only very close to it

Big (soft) brain moment

The average person has fewer than two legs.

[–] rotopenguin 44 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Some women have four legs. It's a temporary condition, but I gander that it's common enough to offset the amputees.

What happens if I put my foot up your ass? Whose foot is it in this equation?

[–] Brickhead92@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Depends, do you have control of it once it's in? If not, then it's probably still the other person's, they're just using you as a shoe.

[–] platypus_plumba@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I've been told he's tight, so my foot will probably get numb due to the contractions.

[–] qaz@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Doesn’t matter, the total amount stays the same

[–] tslnox@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

Looks like your ass is next in line.

[–] tslnox@reddthat.com 2 points 2 years ago

Red Foreman's, obviously.

[–] rotopenguin 1 points 2 years ago

Who is providing oxygen and nutrients to your foot?

[–] Pistcow@lemm.ee 56 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Unless there's a lot of dudes with 3 it really is less than 1 on average.

Shut up before we start talking about p values...

[–] qupada@kbin.social 62 points 2 years ago

p is stored in the balls...

[–] Pistcow@lemm.ee 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Did you just assume my p-values!?

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, but I know what you LSmean

[–] InputZero@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Let's all calm down, and have some Chi at the square.

4 out of 5 participants enjoy gang rape

[–] red_pigeon@lemm.ee 33 points 2 years ago (1 children)

68% of statistical facts are incorrect, including this one

[–] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

They say 3 percent of the people use 5 to 6 percent of their brain, 97 percent use 3 percent and the rest goes down the drain

[–] Deello@lemm.ee 26 points 2 years ago

So in other words I'm above average

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago

If we’re including all humans, the mean is likely below 1, the median is possibly 1 and possibly 0, and the mode is probably 0.

If we’re limiting to the male sex, then the mode and median are probably 2, and the mean somewhere between 1 and 2.

[–] Zatore@lemm.ee 12 points 2 years ago

I'm partially responsible for this stat

[–] greencactus@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I am doing my part!

[–] W3dd1e@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago

For every snake on Earth, there is one snake dick. Half of all snakes are female.

He didn't dare talk to Razek about an average of one hand. Otherwise the medics would have been very busy.
