Throughout history there have been numerous oracles and fortune tellers, or dream interpreters who have pretended to see the future.The known are the prophecies of Nostradamus , and about those of Rasputin we speak to you in a previous article.
However, today we will play some curious predictions that were actually fulfilled, and of course, comment if you agree or not.Many of them have nothing to do with the end times, but with historical events.
5 predictions that were fulfilled!
1.The American writer and humorist Mark Twain was born on November 30, 1835, just two weeks after the appearance of Halley's Comet .Twain predicted that he would die when the famous comet approached Earth again:
“I came with Halley's Comet in 1835.next year and I hope to date him.It would be the biggest disappointment of my life if I don't go with Halley's comet.Without a doubt, God said: ' These two inexplicable phenomena are here, they entered together and they must leave together '”.
Twain died on April 21, 1910, just the day after Halley appeared again in our sky .
2.The British naturalist George Merryweather presented at the Great Exhibition of London in 1851 an incredible and very curious instrument: an artifact of bottles and small pulleys where 12 leeches were imprisoned, which used to predict storms.
With the "barometer of leeches", as the artifact was baptized, the scientist-after numerous experiments with him-was able to predict 51 hours before the terrible storm that struck London s in October 1850, thanks to the behavior of leeches.
3.Finishing almost the Second World War, in 1945, the US army discovered one of the worst things about this war: the death camps Nazis, where millions of Jews-and gypsies, communists, homosexuals of all races, as well as political enemies-found death in gas rooms or starvation.
The American president Dwight D.Eisenhower predicted that they would deny this horror, which was later known as the Holocaust, which is why I order them to take numerous photographs as future proofs.
4.Julio Verne wrote Paris in the century XX , in 1863; Although the criticism does not consider this work as one of the best of the author, it is important for two reasons: the first to be placed in the first positions of the dystopic science fiction (apocalyptic scenarios, of the end of times), and the second to predict, with incredible precision, such incredible things as glass skyscrapers, feminism, teenage rebellion, email, burglar alarms, exaggerated growth of the suburbs and even mass higher education.
An ironic fact is that in the novel, Verne establishes the elimination of the Humanities departments of universities; ironic because more and more these departments are currently less visited and used.
Its editor recommended that the work not be published because "it offered nothing new" and because "it was incredible."
5.Alexander Graham Bell, in 1917, made a prediction that unfortunately is being fulfilled today:
“The uncontrolled burning of fossil fuels will have a kind of effect of greenhouse on Earth ”.
It also began to promote the use of alternative energy sources, such as solar.
Incredible! Do you know any other prediction that has been made reality? For now, stay on our page reading about why flying cars are not yet true.
