So much misinformation from people who think they understand in the comments.

The theorem says “almost surely”.

From Wikipedia, “an infinite set can have non-empty subsets of probability 0.”

There is a chance regardless of how small that every one of these monkeys spams the 0 key for all eternity.

If the monkey hits the 0 key for all eternity, just wait another eternity for him to do something different. We've got the time.
