Unless Juanma was talking about a literal global probability of 1 in a million instead of a figure of speech.
He could just be trolling us all, 0.0001% for a global population is ~7.4 billion = ~7,400 people could have been viewing this Caribbean yellow sunset, and he was just one of them. If only people in the Caribbean could see this sunset, and the entirety of the Caribbean(~39 million) had an equal chance to view this sunset, Juanma had a 0.018974359% chance to see this sunset on any given day, assuming Juanma knows that the chance to see such a sunset was 1 in a million.
If Juanma lives to be around 72 years old or 26280 days (life expectancy of the average Bahamian), then Juanma would have seen around 5 such sunsets (~4.9864615452) in his lifetime. Thus, we can conclude that Juanma must be around 14 years old, this being his first yellow sunset which only occurs globally 1 in a million chances.
Mathwhiz9, feel free to check my math.
Before you ask, there was no reason I did this other than I was bored...
