A self-proclaimed Twitter prophet has revealed that they eerily managed to predict the Titanic submarine tragedy a whole nine months before it happened.
It has officially been confirmed today (June 22) that the missing Titanic tourist submarine "catastrophically imploded" and all five people onboard were tragically killed.
The submarine was filled with a British-Pakistani businessman, his 19-year-old son, a British billionaire, the submarine’s pilot and the CEO of the company that ran the tours.

A statement from OceanGate, the company that ran the submarine tours, said: "We now believe that our CEO Stockton Rush, Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood, Hamish Harding and Paul-Henri Nargeolet have sadly been lost."
The group were first reported missing on Sunday, after a vessel dropped the submarine off into the freezing cold waters of the Atlantic at around 8am local time.
But nine months ago, Twitter user Phineas appeared to make an eerie prediction.
They wrote in a tweet: “I have an idea for a Titanic (1997) sequel, where a luxury submarine full of millionaires crashes while touring the wreck of Titanic. (They all drown and get eaten by crabs. The movie is 26 minutes long. Very rewatchable.)”

They followed up the tweet by saying: "I totally forgot about this but it has been brought to my attention that I am a prophet."
Online trolls have been lampooning OceanGate for its submarine tours, as new details about the company and the vessel itself paint a troubling picture of a trip that was doomed from the get-go.
Those who wanted to go on the dodgy vessel had to sign a waiver confirming that they knew they were going to be boarding an “experimental” vessel “that has not been approved or certified by any regulatory body, and could result in physical injury, disability, emotional trauma or death."
On top of this, a TV producer who boarded the Titan just one year ago claimed that the waiver mentioned death three times on the first page.
