Chance that you'll get struck by lighting in a given year is estimated to be 1/500,000.
That videos were watched by 7 million people.
Out of that 7 million people only a few will be successful.
If few is 4, then chance of being successful after watching that video is 4/7,000,000 = 1/1,750,000

Chance of being struck by a lighting in one year: 1/500,000
Chance of being successful after watching the videos: 1/1,750,000
It's 3.5x times more possible that you'll get struck by lighting in a given year than you'll be actually successful.

I'm sorry.

And I forgot to add: chance of being struck by lightning in a lifetime is 1/6250. 80x times more possible than being successful.

But what is considered successful? Everyone has their own idea of exactly what success to them is.
