    You beat me to it! :)

    Good ole CTR is number 6 with 1914. They put on the screen he is the "founder of Jehovah's Witnesses".

    They missed the most important failed prediction of all:

    The prophecy of Jesus in Luke 21:32

    Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.

    There did not seem to be allot of thought about the ranking. Why doesn't the Watchtower show up more than once? And what about William Miller?

    And what about William Miller?

    Good point.

    I believe msn got their information from National Geographic there was a small subtitle on the video.

    This is also from N.G.

    Since its founding in the 1870s, the Jehovah's Witnesses, a Christian offshoot, had prophesied that the world would end in 1914 (above, a Jehovah's Witness family hangs posters in the 1930s).

    Though nothing of the sort happened in 1914, ever since then, the religion's followers have been predicting that the world will end "shortly," according to the 1997 book Apocalypse Delayed: The Story of Jehovah's Witnesses

    Children display posters for the Jehovah's Witnesses.
