00:00:02.160 --> 00:00:07.470
what are the chances you, being you.

00:00:08.460 --> 00:00:15.730
lets start with your birthday. Odds are that you were born in August, September, or July, the most popular months for birthdays.

00:00:15.750 --> 00:00:19.270
while chances are slimmest that you were born in February or April.

00:00:21.240 --> 00:00:22.810
and what about the day of the week your were born?

00:00:23.270 --> 00:00:26.830
its most likely you were born on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday.

00:00:26.830 --> 00:00:30.680
Turns out most babies take the weekends off.

00:00:30.680 --> 00:00:33.830
and odds are greatest that you came into the world all by yourself.

00:00:33.830 --> 00:00:41.300
there's only a three percent chance of you being a twin. And a very tiny chance of you being a triplet or a quadruplet.   

00:00:41.300 --> 00:00:44.250
what about your name?

00:00:44.250 --> 00:00:54.280
Even if you have a relatively popular name, like David or Rachel, Joe or Lauren, theres still a really slim chance that you'd wind up with that name.

00:00:55.260 --> 00:01:01.360
if your guy that chances are greatest that your 5'10". And if your girl you most likely 5' 4".

00:01:01.360 --> 00:01:07.850
And if we were to reverse those heights, theres than a 3 percent chance of a guy being 5'4" and a girl being 5'10".

00:01:08.050 --> 00:01:12.180
In fact theres less than a 1% for a girl to be 5'11" or any height above.

00:01:12.770 --> 00:01:16.900
And less than a 5% chance for a guy to be any height above 6'1".

00:01:18.470 --> 00:01:19.850
I'll if you were born in the US

00:01:19.850 --> 00:01:22.990
theres about a 13 percent chance you're born in California

00:01:22.990 --> 00:01:25.160
and a 10 percent chance you're born in Texas.

00:01:25.160 --> 00:01:29.680
theres a %46 chance you were born in Illinois, Florida, or New York.

00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:33.420
And less than a %3 chance you were born anywhere else.

00:01:33.420 --> 00:01:36.170
but taking into consideration the entire world

00:01:36.340 --> 00:01:39.320
there's less than one percent chance that you were even born in the US.

00:01:39.320 --> 00:01:45.610
So really, no matter where you're from, or how tall you are, or what your name is, One thing is clear...

00:01:45.610 --> 00:01:48.170
You, are incredibly rare.
