    But there is still a possiblity that it can happen. Even if that possibility is infinitly small, it is still there.

    So like DM said,

    Theoricly possible YES, probable NO

      It is more likely that there is an earthquake, a hole splits open and the coin falls into the liquid magma....while aliens land beside you....oh and you get struck by lightning at the same time.





      1/2^50 = 0.0000000000000888%.....And thats only for 50 head flips in a row.....getting struck by lightning = 0.0000017611%
