Predicted: May, 2011
Happens: October 21, 2011

Details

Harold Camping, who made a prediction for a May 21st Rapture which did not happen (he rationalized it, of course), is now predicting doomsday on October 21st, 2011. From the linked article:

Thus we can be sure that the whole world, with the exception of those who are presently saved (the elect), are under the judgment of God, and will be annihilated together with the whole physical world on October 21, 2011, on the last day of the present five months period. On that day the true believers (the elect) will be raptured. We must remember that only God knows who His elect are that He saved prior to May 21.

Explanation

Uh-huh. I am baffled people listen to this fool given that he's been wrong on every prediction he's made, including some in the 1990s.
