While riding a bus in Chicago, I had my Walkman on, absorbed in music, when I unexpectedly caught news of Nelson Mandela's passing upon reaching my relative's house. VH1 was broadcasting a speech delivered by Mandela's wife, which we all gathered around to watch. Soon after, a conversation about Mandela ensued, and confident in my knowledge, I mentioned his demise. To my astonishment, someone insisted that I was mistaken and that Mandela was indeed alive. I stood there speechless, unable to comprehend the situation. Perhaps it was a figment of my imagination, I pondered. However, they pulled up evidence proving Mandela's continued existence, leaving me utterly bewildered. 🤔

Here's a weird Mandela fact, Jim Carrey either was the first person to have multiple Mandel effects or he is the cause of them. In the movie The Mask there is a scene where he fakes his death as the mask playing a cowboy then gets up and he is accepting the Oscar for his performance and quotes Sally Fields famous like "You love me, you really really love me!" Then in the movie The Cable Guy he is having dinner with Matthew Broderick at Medieval Times and ask for his chicken skin and puts it on his face and quotes the line from Silence of the Lambs "Hello Clarice, so good to see you". And finally in Ace Ventura 2 he is at a dinner for the rich and elite and a sees a woman wearing a fox pelt around her neck and she is with a man who is short bald and wearing an eye monocle and top hat and says. " You must be the Monopoly guy, based on not just his clothing but the monocle. Thats why everyone who watched the movie got the reference and got the joke. As we all are now told the Monopoly guy never had a monocle,Sally field never said that and that line was never in Silence of the Lambs. But he seemed to think all of these things or the writer of the scripts and everyone either got duped into believing these were facts because of watching those films or he was from another dimension.

[@spacemodem4163]

Jim Carrey quit because of a spiritual enlightenment... This is just mental whats happening here!

[@tristinstorm5858]

@@spacemodem4163 no, its something more than that. There is a place called the international cartography association or something to that effect. Well every year for decades they hold a contest for elementary schools around the world and which ever school makes the most unique world map wins a prize and their map gets hung in the headquarters building of this group of highly respected map makers. If you go to their web site and look at the winners year after year kids would draw the same basic design of a world map with north americas west coast almost in line with south americas west coast. Kind of strange that the group that the world turns to for map authentication would pick winners who drew continents thousands of miles off from where we are now told they are supposed to be. Kind of weird that the north pole has completely vanished from history. They said that if the northern ice cap were to melt the oceans would rise hundreds of feet but every single costal city is still there and the north pole is gone. Its not on any globe or antique maps there is no where where you can find a northern and southern polar ice cap. But there are hundreds of islands now above canada that just seem to pop up out if nowhere one day. No towns or citys no bases even though their strategic positioning to russia and other European and asian countries would be key for north america no a single base or landing field nothing. We have bases in Antarctica but not the islands above Canada. Hell we have 750 bases in over 80 countries and we don't have one there. Kind of strange. There is a lot more to this then just "shared mass wrong memories". I have an extremely sharp memory and I can give that sure maybe a couple of things I might have misremembered. But dozens of things that go beyond a movie line or song lyric have been changed. And its not because I saw a peanut commerical. This is something that delves into the multiverse and quantum entanglement the earths energy meridians and a host of other things. You can write it off but if you delve deep enough into this rabbit hole you will start to find some very strange things.

[@bobturpin7611]

Part of the reason why witches were burnt, at least in the UK, was that some witches were also accused of treason, and the punishment of treason was to be burnt. This then likely got transferred over to the most well known witch trials. Witches were accused of making deals with the devil for their powers. Though not all users of magic were accused, we had the cunning folk who were the counter to witches. they made the charms and witch bottles which would counter the curses placed by the witch..

I think the Forrest Gump one comes from people actually making a more grammatically correct sentence. Forrest says "Mama always said life was like a box of chocolates" because he's remembering what his mother said in the past, so he's making the sentence in the past. The problem is that what indicates past in the sentence is "said", but he mixes it up and puts the "is" in the past and turns it into "was". It's common for people to make those kinds of mistake, but when we remember the scene and quote it, it's common for us to simply fix that mistake and, therefore, misquote it.

Or they just mistake it with an flashback scene later on in the movie where his mother does say "Life IS like(...)".

Not once does the line "Elementary, my dear Watson" appear in the Sherlock Holmes canon - it's just how it's various permutations got distilled in the public's consciousness. Or maybe Basil Rathbone said it in one of the movies from the 1940s. I have a private one all to myself (presumably). I faithfully watched the original Outer Limits tv show all through its initial run from 1963-65. The musical score was one of the things I loved about the series, and remembered an especially lilting passage from the episode "The Mutant". When the series was finally released on home video sometime in the 90s, I couldn't wait to hear my favorite soundtrack once again - but it wasn't there.

The TV that replaced it after we moved was larger, but was on an elevated cart to prevent my sister and me from sitting right in front of it. Anyway that console TV ceased to exist in 1977.

The famous misquoted line from Shakespeare’s Hamlet (‘Alas, poor Yorrick! I knew him well.’) is actually ‘Alas, poor Yorrick! I knew him, Horatio.’

There's also "The Lady doth protest too much, methinks" which frequently has people using "methinks" at the top.

Cap'n is short for Captain - just so you know. Dolly from the Bond film, Moonraker - when Jaws fell from the cable car and landed close to her. When he got to his feet and she smiled at him - did she or did she not have braces? (which would've a great sight gag, seeing as Jaws had those metal teeth of his)

A weird one for me is that on your side mirror it’s never said “objects in mirror MAY be closer than they appear.” It’s always been “objects in mirror are closer than they appear.” There’s never been a may. Creepy!!

Sometimes I'll Google people that I heard passed away a while back just to be sure they really passed. Or after Billy Graham's passing I vaguely remembered him passing years before. I looked it up and other people remembered it too. They even remembered a crowd of people with signs that said RIP Billy Graham.

Life is like a box of chocolates confusion comes from when Forest says it he is telling everyone his momma said "life was like a box of chocolates " but when it's in the scene of her actually saying the phrase to him she herself says "forest life is like a box of chocolates " mystery solved

My 1st experience with the Mandela effect I had is when I was 10 years old , in public school , in the library, I was reading the book called The Bearistein Bears , I didn’t realize it was misspelled the whole time until the mid 2010’s that’s when I found out it was spelled Bearistain !! I had thought that for years i was the only one who experienced this!!

[@RobAnthonyDire]

Didn't it used to be,"objects in mirror are closer than they may appear?"

The Wizard of Oz quote: “Toto I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.” Is number 4 in AFI’s list of the 100 greatest movie quotes (FYI) I have a bet with my husband that everyday we hear or see at least one reference to the WOO. It’s true.

Number 12 was one I was hoping you would mention. That really messed with my head when I found out. I couldn't believe it.

[@greypilgrim6157]

I gotta chime in on Looney Tunes because it is a unique example of a Mandela effect that actually changed back to what it was originally. The original Mandela effect was Looney Tunes changed to Looney Toons. People remembered it as Looney Tunes. And they were freaking out about it. But then a couple years later probably about a year and a half ago or so, it changed BACK to Tunes. so now it’s correct again so to speak. I know there are a couple of other examples of Mandie fix the change back but I’ll have to try to recall. But this one clearly was changed back and I’m sure if you searched the Web or Mandie effect communities you would definitely find some Corroboration for this.

"Come back, Shane!" This line from the classic Alan Ladd Western was actually included in a list of the most iconic in film history quoted just that way. When the line is in fact, "Shane, Come back!"

[@SWLinPHX]

Some of these are understandably for context. For instance, if someone said "No, I am your father" that is not as easily identifiable as speaking about Darth Vader or Star Wars so because you are not seeing the movie or scene when you quote it you specify "Luke" first. No mystery.

[@garydavidson922]

The only item out of your list that I believe is a true example of the Mandela Effect is the Berenstain Bears. When I was three years old, one of these books was my favorite book, and I made my dad read it to me every night at bedtime. Following along, I actually used that book to learn how to read, and from there I became an avid reader. It seems strange to me that I was misspelling the last name of the authors for literally decades when it was one of their books that I used to learn reading with. But then again, I also had the title of the book wrong for just as long, and it was when I tried to find that book for my girlfriend's young daughter that I discovered both of my errors, and this was before Mandela actually died. Still, I remember thinking how positive I was that the name was BerenSTEIN, and I even knew that the authors were married couple Stan and Jan going all the way back to when I first learned to read. So, when I first heard about the Mandela Effect and saw that this was one of the examples, I felt vindicated to discover that I was not the only one who remembers it that way.

[@lisas7741]

That one never changed. I personally didn’t like those books specifically because their name spelling didn’t look right and I couldn’t pronounce it correctly so I hated the books!

[@tulaeleven3204]

It changed before 2003. I was in loooove with the berenstein bears. I had the book and the record player. I remember arguing with my college roommate about it in either 2002 or 2003. After the argument I was convinced that name must have changed for some reason. This was before ME. Now it finally makes sense.

[@betweentwomillennium5057]

My wife and I had had a friendly argument in the 90s whether it pronounced Beren Steen or Beren Stein. We could have never had that but of fun if it had been spelled ain. Yet my children looked at VHS tape of her reading one of the books and it is spelled Berenstain. The odds were two to one that we both read that last name wrong. I had studied German and she taught French and Spanish. Somehow that named changed. Different timeline or something.
