When Does 50/50 Become 50/50? | Cyberchase

In this video segment from Cyberchase, Bianca wants to see a movie but she can’t decide which of the two movies she should see. To help her decide, she flips a coin. The coin comes up “heads” three times in a row. This surprises Bianca, so she does some research to find out the probability of landing on heads or tails when flipping a coin.
