After its first episode aired in 1990, The Simpsons have gone on to predict some eerily accurate major events in history, months or years before they'd ever happen.
From the 9/11 tragedy to the deaths of multiple celebrities, the show is now infamous for its knack in predicting serious events in history, reports the Mirror.
And now, in what could be the eeriest prediction yet, it seems that The Simpsons predicted the missing Titanic submersible which has been in the headlines this week. Five passengers are aboard the missing sub, which is set to run out of oxygen today, with no location as to where the vessel is.
An extensive search and rescue operation is currently underway across the mid Atlantic ocean, after the tourist sub went missing on Sunday.
The small submersible was on a tour into the sunken Titanic shipwreck, and contact was lost around an hour and 45 minutes into its journey.
According to reports, oxygen likely ran out at 11am on Thursday, June 22, and fears are growing that the vessel - named Titan - could be stuck in the Titanic wreckage.
And while the ongoing tragic event has shocked millions across the globe, it looks as though The Simpsons predicted this situation back in 2006.
In an episode of the TV series, Homer Simpson's long-lost father Mason Fairbanks, who discovers treasures from the sea, gives a chilling speech before setting off on an expedition.
He said: "Today I am filled with joy. Searching for treasure with my long-lost son. My dream for each of you is that you find the happiness I feel today."
Homer and his long lost father then set out on their journey in the submarine, and came across a shipwrecked boat - that held two boxes filled with treasure.
Homer radioed home to his friends to tell them about their amazing find, and said: "Hey guys. We found the treasure. When I get to shore, I'm bringing it right to the bar."
However, Homer then gets himself stuck in the submarine and begins to panic as the oxygen-low light flashes.
The main character then descends into unconsciousness, and viewers fear the worst.
Good news followed however, as Homer woke up from a three-day coma in the hospital, surrounded by his family - wife Marge and his three kids, Bart, Lisa and Maggie.
With the episode doing the rounds in recent days, many fans of the show have now claimed the writers of The Simpsons have once again used their psychic powers to predict today's current events.
One person tweeted: "Simpsons was the first time in history a submarine sinking was shown in media. This isn't a coincidence."
Another said: "I do not know what surprises them of the lost submarine in the Atlantic that went down to see the remains of the Titanic, the Simpsons had already warned us."
And a third added: "Crazy how the Simpsons already predicted about the missing submarine."
It has been claimed in recent years that the Simpsons have predicted many positive and negative moments in human history.
The global coronavirus pandemic looked to have been predicted by Simpsons creator Matt Groening and the team 27 years ago - when a deadly virus came over to Springfield from Asia.
People have claimed for years that Simpsons writers can see into the future, with lots dismissing these claims. One writer also noted that it is mainly coincidence.
But that hasn't stopped viewers fearing that some other worrying predictions they have made are still yet to come true.
