Explain Three Hundred People Crossing The Atlantic In A Rowboat Face A Hazard Of Drowning

Hazard and risk are used interchangeably, hazards are any agents that can cause harm or damage to humans, property, or environment which can be biological, chemical, mechanical, and physical. Example “Three people crossing the Atlantic in a rowboat face a hazard of drowning... Three hundred people crossing the Atlantic in an ocean liner face the same hazard of drowning... The risk to each individual per crossing is given by the probability of the occurrence of an accident in which he or she drowns... Clearly the hazard [drowning] is the same for each individual, but the risk [probability of drowning] is greater for the individuals in the rowboat than in the ocean
