In short I want to use multiple drop downs to display the risk percentage of selected data. I am new to Excel so I am not even sure if this is possible... please advise.

About the data: We rolled marbles in different obstacle courses going horizontal and vertical. We documented if the marble fell through a hole in the boxes - which would be "bad". Attached is a sample of data from the experiment. Our real lists can range from 1,000 to 10,000 rows.
All the bold columns are lists I want in the drop downs.
The first 3 digits of the ID indicate what obstacle course the marble was in 201, 202, or 203 which is why I calculated that in the 2nd column.
The 5th column tells if the marble ended in the same box.

IDID startStart BoxEnd BoxStart-End same?VerticalHorizontalFall?Good/Bad

What I'm looking for:
-Part 1: A chart where people can select different drop downs and have the chart display the risk percentage of the selected data.
For example
ID start 203
Start-End Same? Yes
Vertical Up
Horizontal Right
would display 100% because 100% of the time it ended Bad.
If the user left Start-End Same? blank I'd like for the chart to not filter anything for that field. The chart should display 75%.

-Part 2: I want to use drop downs to display the Risk - so riskiest recorded path, and the least risky path. That first drop down would auto-populate data for the following 4 fields and force a calculation in the chart.
For example: I want whoever uses this chart to know the combination listed in Part 1 (above) is the riskiest path... if they rolled the marble UP and RIGHT in the same box of obstacle 203, it would be 100% bad.
