Here are the four claims which our very own 'living Nostradamus' guessed correctly for 2024, as he shares a list of terrifying 2025 predictions.
We're just days away from the calendar switching over from 2024 to 2025, with the days between Christmas and New Year proving to be the perfect time to look back on the last 12 months as well as think about what we'd like to see happen in the next year.
One person currently doing just that is Brazilian man Athos Salomé, who has earned the nickname 'living Nostradamus' in the past couple of years thanks to his chilling prophecies about mankind's future.
So what predictions did Salomé have for the past year - and how many of them were true?

Which of Athos Salomé's 2024 predictions came true?
After claiming to have predicted major global events such as the Covid-19 pandemic, the death of Queen Elizabeth II and Elon Musk buying X, Salomé has quite a large reputation to live up to when it comes sharing his visions of the future.
The 26-year-old is said to have made numerous predictions ahead of 2024 and believes that four of these went on to be true. These are:
Microsoft outage

Earlier this year technology software across the globe suffered major outages after CrowdStrike issued a faulty update which caused havoc in numerous airports, hospitals, banks and more.
'God of chaos' asteroid
Many of Salomé's predictions featured warnings about asteroids, with 99942 Apophis initially being considered a collision threat earlier in the year. NASA has since ruled out these fears, stating there is no risk of impact for 100 years.
Cybersecurity attacks

Our 'living Nostradamus' had warned about the risk of cyberattacks which could 'sabotage global communication' back in the Summer. He would later claim this vision was realised after officials earned of cybersecurity attacks at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
Severe weather
Salomé stated at the end of 2023 that a number of natural disasters would strike, with Asia specifically being devastated.
He would later claim this referred to typhoon Yagi, which hit the coastlines of Vietnam, China, Philippines, Hong Kong, Thailand, Myanmar, Laos and Macao in late August/early September.
"In September of 2024 real events supported these expectations with typhoon Yagi, which affected and brought a large amount of damages to these parts of the world," he said.

Were any of his predictions incorrect?
Unfortunately oracles are just like us and make mistakes too, as a number of Salomé's beliefs failed to materialise in the past 12 months, These include World War III kicking off in the South China Sea, Earth actually being hit by the 'God of chaos' asteroid and an asteroid space race between global superpowers.
What predictions has he made for 2025?
Following the trend of modern mystics seeing nothing but doom and gloom in our futures, here are Salomé's predictions for 2025.
- Artificial Intelligence spinning out of control
- Manufactured climate disasters
- Military secrets spilling
- Contact with the extraterrestrial
- Genetically modified humans
- Population control
- Manufactured energy crisis
Strap in lads, it's going to be a rough one.
