Overcoming the odds in fiction

[Don]

A totally random thought: just how hard are the odds given in the world of fiction? Impossible doesn't count as odds, as whoever say such a thing is impossible is invariably wrong. Almost all my stuff comes from the manga/anime sector, but feel free to fill in other forms of fiction too. From most probable to least probable:

Defeating an ant soldier unharmed (Shalunark, HXH) - 20%
Defeating Marik to save the world from eternal darkness (Yugioh) - 20% to 3% (depending on deck strength)
Beating a Gold Saint as a Bronze Saint (Saint Seiya) - 1 in 10000
Being as talented as Gon or Killua (HXH) - 1 in 100000
Firing a computer unassisted proton torpedo and hitting the core of the Death Star (Star Wars) - 1 in 1 million

What in the great name of Beelzebub are you talking about?

[Don]

In Star Wars, when Luke hit the core with the proton torpedo, Han said that shot was one in a million. Therefore it can be inferred that such an act has a 1 in 1 million chance of succeeding (ignoring the fact that the torpedo was actually force-guided so probably more likely to hit than a normal person firing it).

I'm compiling anytime where someone has quoted an odds less than 100% and greater than 0% to see just how difficult it is to do a 1 in (whatever) thing in the world of fiction.

You are completely insane, seek help.

LOL! I could have fun with this. Rocky going from loser to national champion without Don King being involved? Odds? 1 in 2 million I'd say.

You are completely insane, seek help.

Bwahahahahaha!

I'm sorry Don, you're a great guy and all, but it's true. This is completely insane.
