The Possibility of Precognition

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


July 7th, 2021

In 1946, a man called John Godley – then a student at Oxford University – dreamt he was reading a list of horse race winners in a newspaper and saw the names Bindal and Juladdin. The following day he checked a newspaper and found that two horses with those names were running that day. He risked a bet with a group of friends; both horses won, and the group won large sums of money.

Godley had the same experience several times over the following years. The fourth time he had such a dream, he made a written statement of his predictions (again involving two horses), which was witnessed by several people, sealed in an envelope, stamped by a post office official, and locked away until the day of the race. When this prediction came true, Godley became famous.

The standard scientific reaction would be to explain this story in terms of coincidence, exaggeration, or fraud. Many scientists are convinced that psi phenomena such as precognition do not exist. However, I am open to the existence of such phenomena. This is partly because, on occasion, I have experienced them myself. I have also had a few precognitive dreams related to sport. It’s not as though I dream about sports matches regularly. I can only recall a few such dreams. But on most of these occasions, the details of my dreams have been correct.

In September 2001, England played Germany in football in a World Cup qualifying match. I arranged to watch the match at my friend’s house, together with his German girlfriend. The night before the match, I had a dream in which I was sitting in my friend’s living room watching the match, which was still in progress. The score on the TV screen read ‘England 4, Germany 1.’

When I woke up in the morning, the dream was in my mind, and I remember thinking, ‘England 4, Germany 1? That’s impossible!’ England had only beaten Germany at football once in 35 years — in June the previous year when they had sneaked a 1-0 victory. A 4-1 lead for England was an extremely unlikely possibility. But as it turned out, England outplayed Germany, and after 66 minutes, they scored their fourth goal, to take a 4-1 lead. When the screen switched to the same score I had dreamt, I was filled with a very eerie feeling.
