Apparently an octopus named Paul, from the Oberhausen Sea Life Centre in Germany, has been successfully predicting the results for the World Cup matches. The octopus has a 100% success rate on his predictions.

Actually the Octopus has 'a 100% success rate for Germany so far in this World Cup competition.' Which since I imagine they've only played three matches so far makes this kind of less impressive.

Yeah, and we don't hear anything about America's failed psychic rattlesnake, or the UK's 63% accurate psychic puffin.

The odds of the octopus doing that are roughly the same as rolling six on a die four times in a row.
