Answer 1

Nostradamus. He even predicted the outcome of the O. J. Simpson murder trial. Some say he was a prophet, an alien from a different world, a traveller through time and space.

Answer 2

Nostradamus (December 14, 1503 – July 2, 1566), Latinized name of Michel de Nostredame, was one of the world's most famous authors of prophecies. He is best known for his book Les Propheties, the first edition of which appeared in 1555.


Since the publication of this book, which has rarely been out of print since his death and has always been hugely popular across the world, Nostradamus has attracted an almost cult following. His many enthusiasts, to say nothing of the popular press, credit him with predicting numerous major world events. In contrast, most of the academic sources listed below maintain that the associations made between world events and Nostradamus' quatrains are largely the result of misinterpretations or mistranslations (sometimes deliberate) or else are so tenuous as to render them useless as evidence of any genuine predictive power. Moreover, none of the sources listed offers any evidence that anyone has ever succeeded in interpreting any of Nostradamus' quatrains specifically enough to allow a clear identification of any event in advance

Answer 8

Nostradamus made some ambiguos generalizations that could be interpretted that way...he is famous for many predictions that could have easily been someone or something other than what actually occurred.

Answer 9

You must be referring to that fraud Nostradamus (Michel de Notre Dame), who is famous for writing things in such obscure terms that most PAST events will fit his prophecies, provided they and the facts are carefully interpreted and all information that does not fit is discarded.
