For the insatiably curious – and for all those who are “leaplings” – the historical skinny on Leap Day is here.

 

Only about 5 million people in the world today were born on February 29. The odds of being born on Leap Day stand at 1-in-1461…. “Leaplings” technically only get to celebrate their birthdays once every four years, but they are part of a very select group. Several famous people – including singer Dinah Shore (born 1916), motivational speaker Tony Robbins (born 1960) and hip-hop artist Ja Rule (born 1976) – are leaplings.
