In psychology, the "wisdom of the crowd" theory shows how averaging many guesses can reveal surprising accuracy. The "sweets in a jar" experiment is a common way of demonstrating this. Looking at the results for LEGO pieces in this Minifig head reveals... we're a bit off. Likely needed more people!
