But as a compromise, they gave statistics covering the last two years of Froome's riding to the French sports paper L'Equipe. voice-verified
Beyonce and Jay-Z's daughter is 23rd cousin twice removed with Kate Middleton and Prince William's royal baby. voice-verified
Yes, Ruth. matched
American football players aren't representative of the general population because they're all men. matched
So I've looked at the Bureau of Justice's figures, which show the arrest rate for US men is actually 1 in 15, much higher than the arrest rate of American football players, which is 1 in 47. matched
Now, American football players are also all young men, so I looked at the arrest rate for 21 to 34-year-old men in the general population and got a bigger surprise. matched
The arrest rate is about 1 in 8, and for people of Aaron Hernandez's age, he's 23, the number is 1 in 6. matched
That's true. matched
But in general terms, there are about six times as many arrests among the general population of young American men as there are among football players. matched
And even US women are more likely to be arrested than players, albeit by a small margin. matched
Their arrest rate is 1 in 46 compared to 1 in 47 for the players. matched

When I was born 34 years ago in 1978, the average man in the UK lived until he was almost 70. matched
Now, a 34-year-old is expected to live until he's 79 years old. matched
Yes, so by the time I'm elderly, it's predicted that things will have improved further, and I should by then expect to live until I'm 86. matched
Exactly. matched
So I've managed to get a more individually tailored life expectancy from Professor James Valpole, who, as we mentioned, has his own model for working this out. matched
No, not unless anyone's told him. matched
So Professor Valpel there says a man my age will on average live to 94. matched
Now that's just the simple average or the mean. matched
