Paul the psychic Octopus
Paul is a psychic octopus and believe it or not, Paul is really good at its job. Paul the predicting octopus is almost two years old and its bread in captivity. Paul was born in England but currently its working as a fortune teller at the Sea Life Aquarium in Oberhausen, Germany.
Paul only predicts for Germany and before each match Paul is presented with two identical boxes of food. Each box has contender's flag on it and octopus predicts the wining team by selecting the box. Paul the octopus have correctly predicted 5 of the 6 Germany games.
Unfortunately Octopus selected Spain over Germany to play football 2010 finals. Paul's prediction came true as Germany was defeated by Spain in semifinals.Paul proved that he knows more about football than most of experts out there. After this successful prediction Paul has become the most hated Octopus in German history.
If Paul survives the consequences of this daring prediction then hopefully we'll see one more octopus prediction for the third place match between Uruguay and Germany.
Paul in Trouble
Paul the psychic octopus is in deep trouble as his owner received death threats and even recipe suggestion from angry German football fans. Not to forget that Paul is yet to make another prediction about the third place match between Germany and Uruguay. I hope Paul sticks to its successful and unique predicting skill.
