Paul the Psychic Octopus was hatched at the Sea Life Centre in Weymouth, Dorset in England. He currently resides in a tank in the Sea Life Oberhausen in Oberhausen, Germany. In the UEFA Euro 2008, Paul aka 'Das Krakenorakel' predicted 5 out of 6 matches right. His mistake was to predict Germany as a winner against Spain. In this World Cup 2010, he learned from his mistake and predicted Spain's victory over Germany. This caused an uproar and the germans were frustrated. True enough, he was right and the germans lost 1-0 to Spain in the World Cup semi-final. Thus, making his predictions a 100% in this World Cup.
Well then, THE OCTOPUS WAS RIGHT. People were a little skeptical to believe this thing with 8 legs is an oracle. but, he's been right so far... But I think that the octopus might have been the partial cause of Germany's downfall. I'm sure the players were like "OMG.. we're gonna lose, Paul said so" so then they played with less semangat. Either that, or they were in awe of the Spanish team. Many times they just stood there watching the Spanish play. They weren't moving around like they used to.
Now, there are a number of people who are plotting recipes to turn Paul into a delicacy >:D Fried calamari? haha Poor Paul. The aquarium people and his keeper will have to watch him EVEN closer now or else he might be kidnapped xD
I guess Paul has became the world's most famous Octopus xD HAHA wow...
Maybe we should start training our pets to predict the future ;D
