If the chance of it happening is that small, isn't it fair to also consider the probability that we live in a universe without objective reality and/or where a god or gods intentionally interfere with random occurrences such as RNG outputs?

I would put this at better than 1/10^22. If you claimed that your religion was real and showed me an incontrovertible 'miracle' which had a chance of less than 1/10^20 of occurring by chance, I think I would accept your claim.

Maybe there is yet-unknown physics/gods that show up in minecraft speedruns. Maybe he cheated.

We all have our own priors, I guess, but personally, I consider one of those to be more likely :D
