    Okay. So there are 14 whistleblowers. 2 have died. 2/14 is approximately 14%.

    In comparison there are 14,830 Boeing aircraft currently in operation. 2 have fallen from the sky. That’s about 0.014%.

    This shows that statistically it is safer to be a Boeing plane than to be a Boeing whistleblower.

      I have three siblings. One of them has died. That’s a 33% death rate. This shows that statistically, being my sibling is one of the most dangerous things you can be in the world.

      100% of people that are born, die. Being born has a 100% death rate. Being born is the most deadly thing in the world.

      That’s not how statistics work. Your numbers are correct, your conclusion is not.
