One in a Thousand Surgery
Doctor: Don't worry, this surgery has a one in a thousand chance in failure, and my last 999 patients were fine. Civilians: Mathematicians:
A doctor reassures a patient that surgery has only a one-in-a-thousand chance of failure because the previous 999 patients were fine. Civilians accept the reassurance, while mathematicians realize that the next case could be the unlucky one, making the joke about probability and misplaced confidence.
