Back To The Future: Part II Actually Predicted The Future
For some reason, people spend a lot of time going over the writings of Nostradamus. His predictions of the future have, over the years, been studied and poured over by vast numbers of people from all sorts of different fields like science, religion, and the study of the occult. He's seen as the end all be all when it comes to future prediction, but he's certainly not the only person to ever claim to see the future.
Back To The Future: Part II, a film made in 1989 about the year 2015, has earned no such devotion and study. Yet, if you take a closer look at the film, you'll find a suprising number of accurate predictions of the future. In fact, someone has compiled a list of 11 Predictions That Back to the Future Part II Got Right. The list points out many things that the film got right, including such things as a Florida baseball team, video conferencing, and more. My favorite though has to be this one:
That's right, Back To The Future: Part II predicted the creation of Television Glasses.
So with any luck, things like hover boards, flying cars, food rehydrators, self lacing shoes and auto drying jackets can't be too far behind. We're still 6 years away from 2015. These awesome things still have time to be invented.
Also, be sure to bet on the Cubs to win the World Series in 2015. If you bet on them at the start of the season, you're sure to make a fortune.
