I think they were figuring the odds mathematically. Odds of being struck by lightning, x; odds of being eaten by shark, y; odds of both happening simultaneously, xy; odds of hitting the Powerball, z, where xy<z.

Odds of ‘this happening’ versus odds of ‘this happening at this specific place at this specific time’ (which would have to coincide with the same for the other event) are not the same odds, no?
