German officials from Oberhausen aquarium announced that the octopus died of natural causes. Paul looked ok when checked Monday evening but he was found dead Tuesday morning. The specialists consider that it is something normal for this type of octopus to die at that age.

At that time the cephalopod predictions were not 100% accurate including also the erroneous result of the final. In 2010 instead, Paul guessed all seven Germany's games and also Spain's win over the Netherlands in the World Cup final. The method of prediction was quite simple: two food (mussel)-containing boxes were being introduced in Paul's environment, and the boxes were wrapped with national flags of teams following to confront. The box chosen by Paul for its meal represented the winning team.
