Not quite. Although this is a popular misconception. It depends on the cardinality of randomness and the distribution that you're talking about.

As a casual example, an infinitely long randomly distributed sequence of set { A, B, C, D } will never contain the string "bkyiuuMbF."

You can take this example and apply it to other spaces. For instance, we may live in a universe where there really is no other set of possible interactions where life exists somewhere else in this supercluster. Maybe in a another one, though?

There are nearly 8 billion people on the planet at the time of writing, I think. There's a lot of random people in there, but only one you!
