Heard someone who is clearly better with figures than me, talking about the 1 in 3000 odds of it hitting someone, yesterday. The 1 in 3000 thing was a bit misleading.

What was meant was 1 in 3000 of it hitting any person on earth. So you would have to multiply that 3000 by the total population of the earth which is nearly 7 billion.

3000
x
7 billion

I cant even work that out

As an individual you probably had more chance of winning the lottery 10 times over than that thing hitting you.
