Here is a sample conversation between two Everettistas, 
who have fallen from a plane and are hurtling towards 
the ground without parachutes:
 
Mike: What do you think our chances of survival are?
 
Ron: Don't worry, they're really good. In the vast majority 
     of possible worlds, we didn't even take this plane trip.
