Best Answer

There are many examples of self-fulfilling prophecies; some more famous ones are:

In the 1929 crash, rumours of runs on banks caused people to remove their money from the banks - causing a run on the banks.

In the 1970s, a British commentator announced there would be a shortage of salt - people starting stocking up and shops soon sold out of salt causing a shortage. In fact, the announcement was simply a test to see if rumours of a shortage would cause a shortage.
