People die in stampedes all the time. He didn't predict shit.

What happened in Korea was a party that got out of hand, not a protest.

That is what I said. It is a protest in the book. And in Korea case, it is not even a party. People just go there.

Sure stampede happens a lot, but how often it happens in S Korea?

Does it matter? If you say something super generic and it happens eventually, you didn't predict it right. You just said something so generic it's bound to happen sooner or later.

I predict you'll see cars today. I'm just psychic like that.

He doesn't predict anything. This isn't prediction. It's just describing traumatic events that are possible and you're reading prediction into it because humans are bad about understanding causality.
