I figured out that there's a clown who crashes his car into a tree because he is drunk, but I don't get the last panel. Why are there suddenly so many bodies?

You're one of the lucky 10000 today
I'd like it to be the lucky 400 thousand but I guess it's not that snappy
My link has the comic
What group am I in if I am part of two independent lucky 10k events in a single day?
(Odds of being in one)² = (1/10000)² = 1⁄100000000?
How crazy is this thread is for someone to hear about clown cars AND the lucky 10,000 for the first time.
That number must be smaller
Yup same here

what are the lucky 10000?
Randall Munroe calculated that there's every day the lucky 10000 (in the US, 400 thousand globally) who learn something for the first time that is very known.
its a reference to [https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/1053:_Ten_Thousand](this xkcd)
You're one of them today. Jk, I don't think it applies specifically to this, this isn't well known.
I feel like the analogy of a clown car is pretty widespread? And the lucky 10,000 is back of the napkin guestimation, I think it's allowed an order of magnitude on either side, and one should not feel bad for being part of it, you're in for learning and learning is (or should be) fun!
No, I meant that not knowing about the 10K didn't really make him part of the daily 10K
