Statistically speaking

Managed to catch the semi final of the world one legged hopping final in Manchester today. Although I was left wishing I had heard the joke that the bloke in the background on the left has just experienced.

I once heard a great talk about distrusting statistics. The nub of it was that if you have two legs, you have more than the average. Very rare to see people with more than two legs but relatively common to see people with half a leg or more missing. Hence statistically the average number of legs per person is less than two.

So there.
