A recent widespread power outage in Spain has sparked an unexpected online debate, attributing it to predictions made by The Simpsons. The focus is whether the animated TV show foresaw the widespread blackout that hit parts of Spain on Monday. Posts circulating online show screenshots from older episodes of The Simpsons, allegedly depicting a map highlighting Spain's power outage슬롯 머신 사이트 추천in a슬롯 머신 사이트 추천scene showing a city in darkness. While the images have drawn attention and speculation, a closer examination reveals that this is more a case of selective interpretation and coincidence than a genuine forecast for Europe's widespread blackout . The Simpsons, known for its satirical take on politics, pop culture and current events, has often been credited with predicting everything from the rise of Donald Trump to technological trends. However, attributing a nationwide power outage to the cartoon슬롯사이트s storyline requires more than what just viral posts usually provide.
Massive Blackout In Europe
� Massive in !
On April 28, Spain, Portugal and the south of France faced massive power outages.
The reason is grid overload, high dependence on unstable "green" energy and a lack of reserve capacity.

Did The Simpsons Predict Spain's Power Outage?
Some scenes from past episodes of The Simpsons resemble the April 28 power outage that affected parts of Europe.

The recent outage disrupted daily life in Spain, Portugal and southern France, impacting air travel, hospitals, public transport systems and workplaces. Despite the comparisons being made, there is no truth to the claim that The Simpsons predicted a worldwide power failure on April 30, 2025; it슬롯사이트s simply another misleading internet hoax.
A viral video claims that a 1998 Simpsons episode titled 슬롯사이트The Last Day of Springfield슬롯사이트� depicted a citywide blackout, while another allegedly named 슬롯사이트Last Day of Civilization슬롯사이트� predicted a global power failure on April 30, plunging the world into darkness. These fabricated clips gained traction online following Monday슬롯사이트s widespread outage across Europe.

According to reports from local outlets, the disruption was linked to instability in the European power grid. Additionally, a wildfire on Alaric Mountain in southwest France reportedly damaged a high-voltage line between Perpignan and eastern Narbonne, contributing to the blackout. The incident drew significant social media attention, as large-scale outages of this nature are uncommon in the region.
Power Outage In Spain
Following a major power outage that disrupted daily life on Monday afternoon, electricity gradually returned to several areas of the Iberian Peninsula later in the day, according to Reuters. Spain's Interior Ministry responded by declaring a national emergency, prompting the deployment of approximately 30,000 police officers nationwide to ensure public safety. High-level emergency cabinet sessions were also held to manage the unfolding crisis and coordinate recovery efforts.
While The Simpsons continues to entertain and surprise viewers with its sharp writing and occasional uncanny accuracy, there is no factual basis to the claim that the show predicted Spain슬롯사이트s 2025 blackout.
