The Birthday Paradox
How many people need to be in a room before there’s a 50% chance that two of them share the same birthday? Is it about 180, since that’s around half of 365? Is it only 100? The real answer is surprisingly much, much smaller.
If you have just 23 people in a room, the odds of whether two get presents on the same day is a coin flip. Get 50 people together and that shared-birthday probability skyrockets to 97%. A handful more and it’s a virtual statistical certainty.
Really? Yes, really! With the aid of tiny plastic babies and some mathematics, Kevin proves and visualizes this surprising veridical paradox.

Hey if I'm born 1/1/1990 1AM GMT +13 and someone is born simultaneously in a different part of the world 31/12/1989 GMT -12 who is older?
To be fair, they're all babies so I assume their birthdays are fairly close together
good point
Smart 🤝
No, Even any adult has the same possibilities of the same birthdays as the babies , the possibility is still one of 365
In terms of birth year, Yes. In terms of birth date, No.
Not really. A baby ranges from 0 days to 2 years old I’d say
I love when the intros are completely random due to the lack of context. “I have 23 BABIES.”

Wtf give them back
if you are in a room with 50 people, theres a pretty low chance that one of them will share your birthday, but a very high chance that at least two of the other people will have a shared birthday
I understood it with the video but whoever can't they gotta look at this comment and now this reply cause YOU HAVING THE SAME BIRTHDAY AS THE OTHER PERSON AND BY IT I MEAN YOU HAVING SAME BIRTHDAY EXACT SAME SO THE 50% CHANCE WOULD STILL BE WHEN THERE WILL BE 182 BABIES BUT IN THIS VIDEO THEY ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT YOU SPECIFICALLY THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT ANY 2 PEOPLE OUT OF THOSE 23 I HOPE YOU UNDERSTOOD
Actually, the probability in that case is about 12%
@@ki_yoon 365/50=7.3.....100/7.3=13.6986..... The probability is 13.6986% one of those 50 people will share your birthday. Edit: Disregard this, I'm an idiot.
@@zaug1561 The correct method of calculation is to compute the opposite case and subtract it from 1. When there are 50 people, the probability that everyone's birthday is different from you is (364/365)^50 ≒ 87.18%, so the probability that there's someone who has the same birthday as you is about 12.82%
@@ki_yoon The chance of 1 person having the same birthday as you is 1 in 365. That seems obvious enough. So the chances of 50 people having the same birthday as you would be 50 in 365. It's that simple. Edit: Disregard this, I'm an idiot.
I am a highschool teacher and this explains why, when anyone has their birthday, someone else will say "me/my dad/mom/sister also has a birthday today". That is, if you count 23 students in class plus 3 relatives at home each, gives a total of about 90 people and the chance is close to 100%. Makes sense after all!
I still don’t get why it’s a 50% chance of 23 people having the same birthday.
@@Checkmate777 Is not too intuitive, and he does not explain well in my opinion.
@@Checkmate777when I first thought about it, I was thinking you choose 2 random people and it’s a 50% chance of them having the same birthday, that’s wrong. He’s saying that 23 people in a room pair up with each other to see if they have the same birthday, that’s 253 pairs which greatly increases the probability. Now you take 253 (number of pairs) times 1/365 (the chance of any pair having the same birthday.) that equals around 69%. But that means that with any more than 365 pairs the chance surpasses 100% which isn’t possible so the chance decreases to about 50%. Hope that helps.

I had this problem in a statistic exam at computer science university, and yes... they asked us also if this paradox would have been useful for softwares and security was the answer. Very interesting topic
For anyone curious about the formula, it's a simple factorial where you remove lower numbers, keeping the higher numbers starting from 365 as you calculate the chance of NOT getting a matching date. For n = # of babies (23) And d = # of days (365) Chance of 2 with same date: = 1 - (d!/(d-n)!) / d^n Side note: factorial doesn't work how you would want it to when there is 1 more baby than the number of days(should multiply by 0, but the factorial of 0 equals 1)

There is a much better way for explaining this. Pretend you are in a room of 122 people excluding you, now you have a one in three chance of sharing a birthday with another person, because there are exactly as many people as one third the amount of days in a year, which is intuitive and makes sense. Now here's the trick EVERYONE has a one in three chance of sharing a birthday with someone else in this room because of the amount of people, now 99.99997% make more sense in a room of 100 people

As a teacher, I confirm this to be true. There is never a year where two students do not share the same birthday.
There were 9 birthday pair matches and a 3-way match in my high school class of about 100 students from over 2 decades ago. I wonder what the typical number is for a group of 100 random people.
That would mean that there is a 100 % chance, so Vsauce's math is wrong. I wish I was your student, I'd have straight As .
I’ve never had a year where two students did share their birthdays

In school I never shared a b. Day with anyone- mine is January 1st
Damn I always watch videos like this just to get half way and realize I’ve just been daydreaming about something else the whole time, now I have to rewatch it haha
The probability is arguably higher than what you solved for, if we allow cases where we do not "stop at 2", we check further if two other babies have the same birthday in that group as well, and so on. Now if we sum it up we end up at 20 people is on average needed to generate a 50.5% chance of shared birthdays, due to multiples groups at times. There are other cases as well that can further increase such a number, say 3+ share the same birthday as well.

Speaking from personal experience. I went to a small high school where each elective class was made up from the same pool of about 50 kids all born within a 6 year range. Not only did the yearbook show that two of my friends shared the same birth day but they both shared the same birth date. They were not related.

I was that child among 22 other children who with another child had birthdays on the exact same dates. All the other classmates had unique days, but not us two. After finishing school I parted with that person. I then entered a university, and now there were three of us (with one of them having a different year a least) born on March 16.

@@Retrenorium if you’re in the lower numbers then sure but it’s the same thing really. when you get to large numbers like in the question, like 365!, it would be inefficient to sit there doing the work manually when you can use the ! function to get the answer immediately - for reference 10! gives you 3,628,800, so 365! would be an impossibly large number to work with.

I met someone from my own school who had the same birthday
stares into camera... "ive got 23 babies" this is why I love vsauce
I once said this fact at a party, and then the first person I asked whose birthday it was had the same birthday as me. Everyone clapped as I walked away.
Watching this on my birthday :)
Can we just admire that Kevin literarily purchased 100 baby dolls
And also that he gave the effort to put them all one-by-one in place
Do you know where he bought those ?(i want little baby dolls)
Jadesketch no but i wan one
you can get them off amazon, all the juniors at my school has littered the school with them

The fact that so many non-twin siblings share birthdays has always seemed wild to me but now it makes a little more sense
Nah, their parents just have a "get busy" month. Usually Christmas.
My sister has the same birthday as me but exactly 10 years younger and it confuses tf out of me
Ive got a lil bro 3 years younger with the same bday. I dont feel special anymore :'(

My brother was born on February 16th 2010, that’s the same exact date my cousin was born. On top of that my mom and my cousins mom are twins.
I'd like to see a study done on how scheduled c-section births are affecting this. Theoretically, the fact that most c-section babies are born during business hours M-F should have a long-term effect that will skew birthday probabilities.
I work at a liquor store. Whenever I ID someone I'm going to write down their birthday. I'll keep writing them down until two match.
Have you found people already?
Funny story... On my first day of Kindergarten, the first person I befriended in my class was a girl who sat next to me and we had the same exact birthday and we were born in the same hospital two hours apart from one another. What are the odds right?
Well apparently 50% XD
I was born in the same hospital on the same day as a girl in my class with the same name as my best friend
i was good friends in kindergarten with a girl named kaila (my name was kayla, different spelling, same name) who had the same bday lol. not the same but kinda cool
My best friend was born 1 day before me and took up the last spot in the hospital. I was born at home because there was no more room lol
how did u know the hospital u were born in in kindergarten 😟
“You have the same chance of being born on one of the 365 days in the year”. Press F for leap day babies.

If you are born on the 29th of Feb than you get to choose the date of your birthday is on the 28th of Feb or the 1st of March
Hi there! Great video! I think you are missing an 'at least' every time you express that 'two of them share a birthday'. Great job anyway!
i swear every time ive come across a probability problem that has me stumped, i just negate the thing i want to find out and it becomes trivial
it took me so long to realize the “babies” weren’t popcorn
I thought they where teeth
I thought they were dogs
@@MetrioGaming_ wΗαt
I thought they were drops of coffee
How did you know what i was thinking?
My brother and sister who are two years apart were born on the same day and last year my family bought a cat... It was also born on their birthday.
yea and I know a couple different families whose father or mother share the same birthday as one of their kids
My brothers 2 daughters share their birthday 2 years apart first one was a few days late second one was a bit to early
9 months after your dad's birthday I'm guessing
I have just one nephew and one niece - my nephew shares the same birthday as me and my niece with my father (her maternal grandfather). I wonder what the odds are of three generations of a family sharing birthdays.
