Well calling something the “rarest event in history” is very unscientific. Everything that has happened only once ties it. Everything that never happened beats it.

” Everything that never happened beats it.”

If it never happened it is not an event.

Definition of rare (Entry 1 of 2)

1 : seldom occurring

Only the headline. Headlines are seldom totally accurate.

“Everything that has happened only once ties it. Everything that never happened beats it.”

Actually, there have been MANY MANY such events. We have observed only one.
