Having googled mine, I didn’t know any of the ‘famous’ people, so I guess not.

Just read through the thread it doesn't sound like anyone has the same bday as me on here yet?! Shock

If you have 23 people in a room, there is a 50% chance that 2 of them will share the same birthday

How does that work when there are 365 days in a year, so a possible 365 birthdays?
I'd have thought it would be closer to 230 people in a room your have 50% chance of having 2 sharing a birthday???

People please be careful on what personal info you share online. It's very easy for people to pry for personal info.

Sooo
There’s five Prince Andrews , three Ghislaine Maxwells..we need a Jeffrey Epstein and then we can form our own little group and sit in The naughty corner.

I feel so much better now.

If this is correct (and my stats isn’t goo enough to prove or disprove it), then there would be many birthday doubles in (50% of?) school classes, cub packs, offices, etc, which doesn’t bear out in my experience at all.

I’m not saying it’s not true, but I’d like to see the calcs behind it.

Maybe you just don't know all their birthdays...

The stats: either a video or a website
