Do not ask me how, but somehow Octopus Paul of the Sea Life aqarium in Oberhausen, Germany, has an uncanny talent for predicting World Cup Winners. Paul predicts by placing shells in designated boxes.

Octopus predicting the outcome of a soccer match between Germany and Serbia.

Via, WonderHowTo World, World Cup:

"So far, many of the Group round's matches have seemed surprising and unpredictable. Who would have predicted Serbia would have upset Germany!?!?!

Paul, the octopus did.

If you thought Groundhog's Day was a hoot, Puxatany Phil's got nothing on Paul. The Oberhausen Sea Life Centre in Germany reports Paul has predicted World Cup winners with 100% accuracy so far."
