Yeyyyy i was waiting for this episode!! Love a Hurley ep, and I love the hints of Sawyerr getting a headache leading to one of my favourite b-plots ?. I had a maths teacher at school who would count us then say it was likely 2 of us had the same birthday and he was right. It was the same for both my form class and my maths class. And i had 2 other people with my birthday in my year, one of them became one of my best friends. It was an ice breaker for sure ?? great vid guys!
In a Lostpedia interview, David Fury (one of the Season 1 writers and co-executive producers) talked about how the Numbers were developed: “When I started writing the episode (Numbers), I already figured to use numbers that had been heard on the show… 4 (number of years Locke was in wheelchair); 8, 15 (Flight 815), etc.” He also confirmed that the number 42 is a homage to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and that the original idea to include a set of Numbers which would be important was J.J. Abrams.
as for the other numbers and why its these specific numbers the writers wont tell. they say its because it loses its meaning if you know the real meaning i.e. they are just random numbers someone came up with and they have no significance outside of the show
