What are the Odds of Winning Both Powerball and Mega Millions?

Lottery players in Colorado are excited as Mega Millions and Powerball both have jackpots of more than $350 million for the first time ever. However, the chances you'll win both is not good. 

Someone way smarter than me did the math and found the odds of winning both jackpots are a bit worse than 1 in 75.6 quadrillion, or 1 in 75,648,252,765,957,300 to be precise.

Denver 7 points out that those odds are about 6,000 times worse than the odds experts have calculated of being killed by a meteorite strike, at the same time you're being attacked by a shark.
