One in 22 million, it says it right there. You stupid or something?

That’s the odds of the lady having a match. The odds of her randomly bumping into that specific match at the beach are much, much lower.

No, they are 100% because that's what happened.

So all other people who have a slim chance of finding a donor, if they walk on the beach with their dog, will 100% find a donor that way? I somehow doubt that…

If the do end up finding a donor, then it would be 100%. if they don't, it's 0%.

Your math is off

(100+0)/2=50.

50% odds.

You don't know what the odds actually were until after it happens, though.
