The Simpsons has shown again they must have a crystal ball to predict future events, this time anticipating scenes of people roaming the streets using the new Apple Vision eight years before the product was released.
Apple officially launched the new $3,500 Vision Pro in-store Friday, and fans have posted videos of them using the new tech in everyday life.
The Simpsons, with its uncanny ability to predict future events, showed scenes similar to what people are posting online of virtual reality headsets taking over society in an episode released in 2016 titled 'Friends and Family.'
Since the series' release in 1989, The Simpsons has accurately predicted Donald Trump becoming president, Kamala Harris' inauguration outfit, Richard Branson flying into space, smartwatches and more.
In the episode, Mr. Burns hired Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie to play his virtual realty family, which eventually becomes a technology everyone has access to.

Since the iPhone maker released the Vision Pro, the experience of using the device has been compared to a Black Mirror episode.
Video shared on social media of the Apple Device show one person wearing tan pants and a gray sweatshirt using the headset sitting on a New York City subway car typing in the air.
In San Jose, California, a man wearing white pants and a black shirt was recording walking in the street while using the headset, stopping to point at things only he can see on his screen.
In London, video shows a man in a suit wearing the headset and walking his robotic dog on the street.
