In a simul with 100 persons of your level the world champion would win the simul by 100-0.

I think if the world champion was very, very tired and totally out of it such as a "half asleep" stage, he wouldn't be paying attention.   Maybe you have  a chance to draw him.  Who knows....

You are not good enough in chess to realize how vast the difference between you and a top player is. If a grandmaster played 100 games against you, giving queen odds and playing blindfolded, he (or she) would win all 100.

If this was on Chessable, I would give you a ruby for mentioning the Dunning-Kruger effect!
