CERN: Nature mimics the LHC, just LHC differ from nature

We all know about CERN's Large Hadron Collider's safety report, and their line "Nature has already generated on Earth as many collisions as about a million LHC experiments – and the planet still exists," which sounds better if nature mimics the LHC "The Universe as a whole conducts more than 10 million LHC-like experiments per second," and not the other way around since CERN states the LHC collisions differ from nature. Don't believe me? Well continue reading, and give nature props for doing a heck of a job mimicking the LHC! Woo-hoo!

First, like stated above, cosmic rays have performed millions of LHC's on Earth, and we're still here. Amazing, isn't it. To put CERN's statement simply, the universe, nature, mimics protons in the LHC speeding towards each other at close to light speed till they collide. And what about the LHC? Well the LHC can't mimic nature so CERN states on their website "Collisions at the LHC differ from cosmic-ray collisions with astronomical bodies like the Earth," and if you been keeping up with the news, they're 100% right about everything! So, to reiterate what CERN stated above in plain English, the LHC can't mimic nature, but for some strange reason, nature mimics the LHC all the time. Go figure.

So to all you doomsayers, we're all safe when nature mimics the LHC, just not the other way around. Alright!
