⛳ Hole-in-one (amateur) vs 🌪️ Dying in a tornado
Share card
You're 4.80× more likely to hit a hole-in-one
than to die in a tornado
Periods differ: Hole-in-one (amateur) is framed as per round (amateur), while Dying in a tornado is lifetime (US avg). The multiplier is a raw ratio of the 1-in-X figures — not a normalized lifetime risk. Compare cautiously.
How we calculated this
Each figure is “1 in X.” The larger X is the rarer event. Dividing that number by the more common one gives the multiplier: you're 4.80× more likely to hit a hole-in-one. When the periods differ, this is a raw ratio of those figures, not a lifetime-normalized risk.
