World's Most Famous Octopus Paul Dies in Germany

Tourists who came into Germany from all over the world to have a view of the world's most famous octopus were not happy when they learnt that they were late as octopus Paul had died.

Paul, the oracle octopus who shot to fame in the World Cup this summer for his uncanny ability to predict the results of Germany's matches, has died at his home in Oberhausen at the age of two.

English-born Paul made headlines across the globe after he correctly forecasted how Germany would fare in seven matches, before his psychic powers were tested again for the final.

After Germany's semi-final defeat, Paul tipped Spain to beat the Netherlands in the final, which prompted one news agency to report he had spurred a jump in demand for Spanish government bonds.

Paul's prediction duly came to pass as Spain won the world cup in South Africa.
