Coincidence or not? Cases of predicting one's own death that defy logical explanation (5 photos)

Death is perhaps the only thing that can be predicted with absolute accuracy. It is impossible to avoid it, but to predict it...





The heroes of this collection managed to do this in a very strange, inexplicable way.

Talent and phobias



Arnold Schoenberg was a talented painter, wrote music and suffered from a panicky fear of the number 13 - triskaidekaphobia. Despite the fact that the man was born on September 13, 1874. Arnold's worst nightmare was approaching the age at which the numbers would add up to 13.

In 1976, when Schoenberg turned 76 years old (and 7 and 6 add up to 13), he felt unwell and, mindful of his phobia, decided not to even get out of bed all day. At a quarter to 12, his throat trembled twice, as if he wanted to swallow something, his heart began to beat very quickly, and then stopped forever.

Musician's Premonition





Mikey Welsh, bassist of the American rock band Weezer, had a dream in which he died of a heart attack. The musician even wrote a post about it on a social network on September 26, 2011. And on October 8, he was found lifeless in a hotel room in Chicago. The police suspected drug activity, which is quite common in this environment. But the test turned out to be negative.

Presidential fatalism



Abraham Lincoln - Uncle Abe and the 16th President of the United States was a brave man, you can’t argue with that. And fatalism was definitely visible and present in his life. As his bodyguard and friend Ward Hill Lamont recalled, a few days before the assassination, Lincoln had a dream. In it, he discovered a body lying in the East Room of the White House, which was surrounded by a crowd of people. When asked who died, he was answered: “The President. It was an assassin."

Unwitting prediction



NBA player Peter "Pistol Pete" Maravich said in an interview in 1974 that his plans were not to play until he was 40 and suddenly die of a heart attack. But in reality this is what happened: he played basketball professionally for 10 years, and died at the age of 40 from a heart disease that was not diagnosed in a timely manner.

Do you think such cases are a coincidence, a premonition, or the launch of a program for self-destruction, since it is not for nothing that thoughts are believed to be material?
