Stats of the bunch tell the story of the one?
LOL
that is funny!
Still no physical proof of the one muon doing such.

Why do you insist on one when there are thousands
to monitor, all doing the same thing?

You have no physical path being watched,
and you have no physical evidence of the muon being
the same muon.

Don't care which particular muon it is if we know
where it came from and how fast it's going in
a straight line trajectory.

wow!
You would never find the real killer of the muon!
How did the single muon die?

The muons are seen to decay at ground level.

We don't need no stinking "how" in physics!
We use the group and the "should be the same" principle.
lol

You're falling back on your need to disregard empirical
evidence when you get backed into a corner. You always
do this when you can't weasle out another way.

Or faster speeds.

What can accelerate the muon after it's created?
Interaction cross section is low, mean free path
is large, gravity will have negligible effect.
We know the speed when we detect them.
