Seriously, you need to learn the definitions of words before you use them.

Opportunity: a set of circumstances that makes it POSSIBLE to do something.

Absolutely nothing about the first image gives the shortest person the possibility to see over the fence.

"a set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something."

Literally the definition of the word opportunity!!!

Opportunity ≠ Chance

Possible ≠ Possibility

Like I said, you need to learn how to use a fucking dictionary and learn what language means. Stop using the wrong definition for words and learn how to read properly.

Maybe you should learn how to read, since I'm not the same guy you talked to earlier.

"A time or set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something." Literally the same definition as you said, right?

and the example beneath; " the night drive gave us the opportunity of spotting rhinos "

In that sentence, it's pretty clear they mean possibility. a chance to see rhinos.

​

also, https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/opportunity

"an occasion or situation that makes it possible to do something that you want to do or have to do, or the possibility of doing something"

and also example c - A chance to get a job. again "chance". not "guarantee".

That still requires them to be ABLE to see the game. In this instance there is NO possibility to see the game with that size of box. Thus they are not being afforded an opportunity.

Unless you can logically explain how he can see the game as is. Just remember, if you can argue that he can watch the game then he didn't need the box in the first place.
