Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth. - Arthur Conan Doyle

That is such a useless quote.

I throw a ball to my friend. The ball doesn't turn in to chocolate and fly away etc.

What happened to the ball? Caught or not?

To take the quote literally, neither. The rarest bird on earth capable of catching the ball swoops down and lifts it away while I win the lottery and so on.
