I know I've read in a book a bunch of things that were planned to air on TV/occur in a movie, and then actually happened in real life. In most cases, I think they were edited out, or just not aired (if the RL event happened before the show/movie was to be aired).
I for one find it rather chilling when sci-fi writers write about things that will happen, and then they actually happen. As far as I know, nobody's actually secretly built an underwater naval vessel, so we should be safe (for now, at least).
I'll also take suggestions on what Verne books I should read, since I've only read 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

Ladies and Gentlemen, wear sunscreen. If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be IT. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.
