World Cup prognosticators don't get more famous than Paul the "psychic" octopus.

The undersea creature from Oberhausen, Germany, accurately predicted the winner in all seven games involving Germany at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. He also called the winner in the title match between the Netherlands and eventual champion Spain. He died last October.

But his memory now lives on in the form of a six-foot plastic likeness clutching a giant soccer ball. Inside the ball sits a golden urn containing Paul's ashes. The memorial was unveiled today at the Sea Life Aquarium, where Paul lived.

And, really, it speaks for itself.
