Andy once heard about a car crash victim who died because he was pinned in the wreckage by a seat belt he could not undo. as a result, andy refuses to wear a seat belt when he rides in a car. how would you explain to andy the fallacy behind relying on this anecdotal evidence?

You should not rely on anecdotal evidence because of the very small sample size. Since the sample size is very small, outliers end up having a very big weight.

Here Andy is basing himself on one anecdotal evidence he heard. So a sample size of 1. If he were to base his opinion from a large sample size, it is highly likely that 99% of the people were saved by the seatbelt and 1% got hurt. Since Andy only heard the anecdotal evidence, he may be basing himself on a very unlikely event.
