The Most Disturbing Nostradamus Predictions That Came True

Finally, we’ve got Nostradamus’ prophecy regarding the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the former World Trade Center. On September 11, 2001, at 8:46 a.m., American Airlines Flight 11 flew into the World Trade Center’s North Tower in New York City. At 9:03 a.m. United Airlines Flight 175 flew into the World Trade Center’s South Tower. At 9:37 a.m. American Airlines Flight 77 hit the Pentagon. The nearly 3,000 lost lives on that day marked the deadliest terrorist attack in U.S. history. Of equal importance was the fallout to the event, which shaped the course of U.S. domestic and foreign policy from that point forward, and in no small way altered the course of global history.  

Out of all of Nostradamus’ supposedly accurate prophecies, this one might be the vaguest. It sounds like the 9/11 terrorist attacks if we go into the quatrain expecting to see it, but if we do, it sounds spot on. The lines read: “The sky will burn at forty-five degrees. / Fire approaches the great new city. / By fire, he will destroy their city, / A cold and cruel heart, blood will pour. / Mercy to none.” Some parts of the prophecy are clear, like high temperatures, a great city, fire and blood (Nostradamus favorites), etc. The “he” in the prophecy could refer to none other than Osama bin Laden, the head of the terrorist organization al-Qaeda who orchestrated the 9/11 attack. Bin Laden was killed in a U.S. military operation on May 2, 2011.
