Of course. Some day it will happen.
Just like I read annual newspaper articles saying “hey, someday New Orleans will be flooded”. One day it happened.
Thing is, there’s a difference between “someday” and “in a few days”. Having a 100% failure rate up to that actual day doesn’t help.

Unless you’re a journalist, a politician, a weather forecaster, or a financial prognosticator (i.e. a member of the Professional Liar Class).
I’m sure you’ve heard it said that so-and-so “predicted twelve of the last three recessions”, and still retained their job.
Even ol’ Harold Camping got away with wrong end-o’-the-world predictions a few times, and along the way actually INCREASED the number of gullible fools who threw him money.
Abain, I agree. However, if 50 guys fail, and a new person makes a first ever prediction, his failure rate is zero. You are doing a bit of guilt by association.
