They discover a bomb in his bag. The partner explains. "Statistics show that the probability of a bomb being on an airplane is 1/1000. However, the chance that there are two bombs on one plane is 1/1000000. So, plane is much safer..."中情局接到一個緊急的炸彈恐嚇,說是在空軍一號上。在毫無辦法的情況下,他們向麥肯錫公司的一名資深合伙人求助。在一陣深思熟慮之后,合伙人給出一個包裹并且要求一定要把它放在飛機(jī)上。他說,這可以降低風(fēng)險。這個辦法看似很有效,所以中情局決定打開包裹看看,結(jié)果在里面發(fā)現(xiàn)了一枚炸彈。合伙人解釋說:“數(shù)據(jù)顯示,一架飛機(jī)上有一枚炸彈的幾率是千分之一,但是一架飛機(jī)上有兩枚炸彈的可能性是百萬分之一,所以,這樣飛機(jī)就更安全了······”
