THAT is one of the funniest clips I’ve seen in a long time. Love when the physicist finally says “It’s f*cking cold.” So matter of fact. I want to buy that man a beer.
Then the 50/50 thing by the alarmist dimwit - I almost fell out of my chair. “It can either happen, or it is unlikely to happen, therefore it’s a 50/50 chance of destroying the world.”
The finale, John asks “Well, Walter, there’s still a 50/50 chance if we breed it will be successful, shall we have a go at it?”
I saw this last year when it was on the Daily Show, and it is definitely worth watching again. I think I laughed even harder this time. And yeah, I love it when people with no understanding of probability and statistics try to estimate the odds of an event.
BTW, did you know that the average person has one testicle and one ovary?

So is the joke that they also have another one? When we see a boy with one testicle, we investigate to make sure the other is not undescended. Undescended testicles have a nasty habit of becoming cancerous. I have not seen a rash of boys with only one testicle, and believe me, in my line of work, I would have noticed! We are expected to chart something like that, and notify the doctor if s/he hadn’t noticed.
Someone can either be a boy, or a girl.
Someone therefore either has 2 testicles or 2 ovaries.
The average of that is obviously 1 testicle and 1 ovary! :D

British scientists are celebrating after creating mini-versions of the “Big Bang” thought to have given birth to the universe 14 billion years ago.
The collisions created the highest temperatures and densities ever achieved
The achievement was produced by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) which is a giant machine probing the nature of matter at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva.
The “Mini Bangs” were created during the Alice experiment where lead ions were smashed together at enormous energies.
Dr David Evans, a member of the UK team from the University of Birmingham, said: “We are thrilled with the achievement (plus surviving to tell the story is pretty cool too)”
