Guess What? Harry Roesli

Guess What? Harry Roesli

Musician Harry Roesli went through three sleepless days after
a self-proclaimed soothsayer went to him and foretold of his
imminent death.

The soothsayer, Joko Satrio, predicted that Harry would die on
May 8 at 4:10 p.m.. Joko claimed to have received the date of the
artist's death from "divine sources".

The senior musician, creator of the spectacular Opera Tusuk
Gigi (The Toothpick Opera) and Joko Tingkir Dot Com, insisted
that he did not believe Joko.

However, on May 8, Harry admitted to feeling incredibly
depressed and tense. Journalists, who heard about the prediction,
went to his house in Bandung, West Java, hoping to witness how
Harry would face his "last minutes".

Tension mounted when the psychic called Harry and, to great
relief, admitted that he in fact was not a soothsayer and wished
that nothing would happen to Harry.

Harry let the fateful moment pass and burst into laughter,
before asking his wife for a massage to relax his tense muscles.
