Consider that your recollection of the event is itself uncertain. Could it not be that although you now remember having known what was about to happen, you did not actually know that when the situation took place, and only subsequently formed that memory?


I am sure this is exactly what is happening. It is just hard to find out and believe that something is wrong with your own memory. It is about the same as using infected OS to run AntiVirus scan. Maybe it is a coping mechanism? I would prefer to hope it was a prophetic dream than that I can't trust my memory as Déjà Vu/random brain hiccup can rewrite it without leaving any trace.
