8 People Who Tried to Warn Us Before Infamous Assassinations

VOICE OVER: Peter DeGiglio
WRITTEN BY: Ajay Manuel

History is full of chilling warnings that went tragically unheard. Join us as we look at the politicians, police chiefs, mystics, and psychologists who saw danger coming long before history changed forever. From Spurinna warning Julius Caesar to beware the Ides of March, to Edmund Gerde's desperate pleas before Sarajevo, these ignored predictions altered the course of history in ways we still feel today. Our countdown includes Georg Sieber's eerily accurate "Situation 21" before the 1972 Munich massacre, Grigori Rasputin's prophetic final letter to Tsar Nicholas II, Charles Colchester's ignored warning to Abraham Lincoln, and Adlai Stevenson's concerns about JFK's fateful Dallas trip, and more! Which ignored warning do you think could have changed history the most? Let us know in the comments below!
