Stefan Porwoll, manager of Sea Life Aquarium in Oberhausen, contemplates the memorial to their deceased star Paul the octopus, which was unveiled on Thursday. The two-meter-high statue of Paul atop a football contains a viewing window where visitors can see the urn containing his ashes. The seemingly clairvoyant octopus shot to fame during the 2010 football World Cup in South Africa when he accurately predicted the winning team in each of the German matches, as well as the final. Paul died in October 2010, aged two-and-a-half -- apparently a ripe old age for an octopus.
