Since we are being pedantic, your statement may be true but it is unsupported by the data you presented. To make it simple, let's talk about the imaginary basketball league with four players, of unit less heights of 4, 4, 4, and 1. The average height is 3.25, yet 3/4 the players are taller than average.

- sdeframond 2y agoWhat's the average number of legs for humans ?
- cutemonster 2y agoA bit less than two
- sdeframond 2y agoWhat about Frank Lentini ? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Lentini https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Lentini
- nolamark 2y agoSeems like he has more than the average number of legs as well. The fact that he has a wiki page, and that many folks with born without or who have lost legs (~500,000/year Americans experience limb loss or are born with a limb difference https://amputee-coalition.org/resources/limb-loss-statistics/ https://amputee-coalition.org/resources/limb-loss-statistics...) do not, suggest that the number of people with < 2 is far greater than the number of people with > 2. So the average is still less than 2. For better or worse, number of legs (or number of arms) is canonical example people use to demonstrate the statistical principal a significant majority of a population can be above average of some metric.
- cutemonster 2y agoHe must have been an amazing person. I imagine one easily gets bullied, when looking that different. But, from Wikipedia: > Lentini was so respected among his peers that he was often called "The King".
