'Against all odds' có nghĩa là bất chấp sự chống đối mạnh mẽ hay mọi điều kiện nguy hiểm, bất lợi.
Ví dụ
“I ran into one of my neighbors the other day. Here was a guy who had been in a terrible motorcycle accident. After he suffered serious injuries and fell into a coma (hôn mê bất tỉnh), his doctors didn’t think he’d live. But against all odds ( Thế mà bất chấp mọi sự hiểm nghèo), he recovered and is now nearly back to normal.”
“Not long after a US Airways flight left New York City on January 15, 2009, it ran into a flock of birds and lost engine power. Captain Sullenberger knew he couldn’t make it to an airport. There was one option left. Most of the 155 passengers and crew held out little hope for survival. Yet, against all odds, “Sully” safely landed the plane on the river below.”
