"probability" is a concept of deception.

The "probability" of being struck by lightning is so small that no individual should ever be struck by lightning. Yet, individuals are struck every year. The same can be said of winning the lottery, yet individuals do win.

"probability" has nothing to do with individual specific cases! For specific people and cases, "probability" vanishes.
