The odds of you being alive today are astronomically small, often cited as around 1 in 10^2,685,000, a number with over 2.6 million zeroes, making your existence statistically miraculous, resulting from an unbroken chain of successful ancestors, precise genetic combinations (1 in 70 trillion just at fertilization), and a habitable Earth, far rarer than atoms in the universe.
Scientific estimates indicate that over 99% of all species that have ever lived on Earth, totaling billions, are now extinct. This natural, continuous process, punctuated by five major mass extinctions, means most species have a finite lifespan, with 99.9% extinction often cited as the historical norm.
