Each choice are independent... > I took care to say ~24% rather than 24%, because the true way to add those probabilities is (1 - (1 - 1%)^24) = 21.432% After 1,000 iterations you get: (1-(1 - 1%)^1000) = 0.999956 That is, there is a 99.9995% chance you will *not *succeed in passing 1,000 trials in which you have a 99% chance of success in each one, where success is defined as remaining in the physical world.
