A man in the United Kingdom has gone viral after claiming his pet goldfish can predict winning lottery numbers. The goldfish, named “Fin Diesel,” lives in a small tank lined with coloured stones. The owner noticed the fish consistently swimming toward certain colours, so he assigned each stone a number and began recording the choices.
What started as a private joke quickly turned into a weekly online ritual. Millions now watch videos of Fin Diesel “choosing” numbers for upcoming draws. So far, the fish hasn’t produced any jackpot wins — but it has correctly predicted two small payouts, which only fuelled the hype.
Experts say the fish is simply responding to movement and colours, but fans insist there’s something mysterious about its accuracy. The owner himself calls it harmless fun, though he admits he now feels pressure every time the fish swims near a new stone.
While the chances of a psychic goldfish changing anyone’s life remain slim, Fin Diesel has become an unlikely star — swimming his way into lotto superstardom.
