July 10, 2010 - PRLog -- Can an octopus really predict the future? It seems so. Paul the Octopus, who makes its home at Aquarium Sea Life in the western German city of Oberhausen, has a 100% correct record of predicting the outcome of Germany’s games in the 2010 World Cup. Paul predicted Germany’s shocking loss to Serbia. Then it predicted Germany’s emphatic wins over England and Argentina. Now Paul the Octopus has predicted the unexpected German loss to Spain.

Such has been the popularity of its selections that many world news organizations are covering the results. TV channels have even done live broadcast of Paul’s predictions.

But can an octopus really predict such things as the outcome of a football game? Well the results speak for themselves. People at the aquarium certainly think Paul is psychic. They said he has 9 brains and 3 hearts and therefore can “compute” all the energy of the moment surrounding the teams. Although the octopus has no spine, it seems it is ready to “put its neck on the line” and predict the winner.

So what does Paul say for the final? Will it be Netherlands or Spain? Many, many punters are eagerly awaiting its prediction. And I am sure will place their bets accordingly.

And they got their answer yesterday in a live broadcast from the aquarium. Paul is predicting that Spain will win the 2010 World Cup. It seems the Netherlands are not worried however. In fact many of the Dutch fans have already been circulating calamari recipes to all their friends.

So on Sunday we will see whether the Dutch can prove that Paul the Octopus’s physic expertise is confined to his German roots or whether his prophetic tentacles can spread to outside the octopus’s country origins. It is going to be an exciting match … no matter what the outcome.
