As expected some of the commenters on the video thread have some opinions and theories on this.
This one commenter had this to say:
This might have been better explained in terms of clustering or frequency abundance…If the question became ”Who has the same birthday and born at the same hospital”?..Then there would have been much less chance of a match. I.e clustering and the probability would have dropped.
After watching this video do you agree with him/her or do you think it was well explained?
Someone had this to say too:
That’s crazy high odds. I was once in an English class of maybe 15 people where 3 had the same birthday (and year). I always thought it was really cool.
We hope you enjoy the video.

Generalized statements are difficult to prove wrong to be wrong. Astrology is about as accurate at religion.
I can’t because I don’t feel like clicking on it and looking at a bunch of ads.
In average I’d say 1/15 chance since schooling is yearly or by age but there should be adjustment by month and seasonal relation by region.
That is, average “sexy time” months following gestation periods per the comon weather patters for that area.
What months do citizens procreate more vigorisly vs seasons or periods that they lack. Further coalesced with changing sexual norms of a increasingly and changing sexual environment per the modern “hookup culture” and further adjusted for our modern accessibility to abortion and contraceptive application.
It’s not a paradox… Its just statistics and probability
Some birthdays are rarer than others… Mines on the top list… November 27
It just statistics.
When one reads anything about astrology, you immediately say “that’s true, that’s me”. But do you really see how ambiguous the predictions are?. “Fortune will come soon” for example. Umm ok. This can be taken as a fortunate fun weekend. A raise at work. A fortunate lesson learned in your failures. Humans are slightly more tipped on the scale to believe ambiguity without ascertaining the possibility of variability in their interpretation of what these so called predictions mean. I can read all birthday predictions. And they’re all so ambiguous. Your Own perception makes you believe these things happen, in a sort of “kind-of” sense.
There were four other people in my school with the same birthday as mine. Who gives a flying$#%&!@* There’s billions of people walking the earth right now but only 365 days in a year….Why don’t you just go ahead and try to calculate how many people are taking a fat$#%&!@*at the same time you are while you’re at it, you boring bitches….
Yea, the answers .375
Actually, real astrology, as opposed to newspaper column astrology, takes into account 100s of variables. And does not explain traits every person has.
There is a reason that astrology is not an accepted science…
“real astrology” is an oxymoron.
Live life,forget this dumb stuff.
I don’t see why it’s a birthday problem
No I think it’s dumb to me. Seems like scientist as jus pulling names of weird$#%&!@*out a hat and say hey let’s call this that. And make it seem real
A lot of big words…..compensating for a little something else maybe? Do you even understand the definitions of half of the words you tried using? #bigwordsmakemydickbigger
The odds might be small as far as someone in the group having *your* birthday, but if you have as 30 people in a group, there is a great likelihood of *some pair* of two people sharing a birthday.
I have noticed this through out my life and I have a theory on it. This is the result of modern obstetrics. Since the 1950s it is common practice for dr.s to go ahead and incuduce women into labour so they have the baby Monday through Friday and not during a holiday. Also baby’s not born vaganal are delivered Monday through Friday and not on holidays unless it is an emergency. With most common days being wed. And Friday . This fits around the drs. And hospitals schedules. Of course you also have your monthly variance as well to consider certain months seem more prone for folks to have new babies in. That’s my observations and theory on that.
Except you are not…the Sun wasn’t in Virgo when any of you were born.
Yah right lol what ever
I have to ask so tell me what are we then lol
We’re all born in August on the 24th and what does that make you if your only born a few years apart mmmm
7.2 billion÷365.25 days a year=a high probability you know some one with the same birthday
Roughly 691,666,667 birthdays per month… that’s roughly 23,055,555 birthdays per day. Doesn’t seem strange at all. High frequency.
