10 Things More Likely To Happen To You Than Winning The Lottery

4. Being Hit By A Meteorite

Ever seen white hot flames streaking across the sky and logically assumed it was Superman? Maybe it was, but it's far likelier to have been a meteorite, thousands of which survive their journey through the atmosphere to crash into the earth's surface every year. With so many bits of rock hurtling in our direction, and with some travelling as fast as 150,000 miler per hour, it might not come as much of a surprise that you have a 1 in 700,000 chance of being hit by one of them. I'd like to offer some sage advice at this point on how to make yourself a less attractive target for a meteorite, but really, just run. Fast.
