I think the reason why a lot of people kind of remember chartreuse as being reddish/pinkish is because it's associated with wine (well, it's technically a French liquor). And when "wine" is mentioned, the first thing that pops into mind (for me at least) is the red stuff. Also, it does sound like a type of wine to people that aren't really familiar with wines, like me. 😅

Fuchsia is the color of the Fuchsia plant similar to magenta. Easy to see the mix up with Chartreuse .

[@corrob]

i had the same thing with chartreuse, but this was long ago. i was getting fish bait when i was about 17 in the mid 90s, and i looked at the chartreuse colored fishing bait, and it was a neon yellow/green, and i distinctly remember thinking, they must have put the wrong labels on these, it should be that pinkish red color. Just now, watching this vid, is the first time I've heard of this particular Mandela switch up. so that blows my mind. but also, Berenstein was what i always remembered..

My favorite Mandela Effect example is Darth Vaders famous line to Luke in the Empire Strikes Back. Even James Earl Jones seems to have misremembered the line as he erroneously quoted it as, “Luke, I am your father” in a TV interview.

[@marinesinspace6253]

So, the Man from Taured is actually an urban legend. It's based on a man named John Zegrus, an alleged document forger arrested by Japanese police in 1960, who went on to be the subject of varying stories about a man from an unknown country, detained in Japan, culminating in the story told in the video.

[@eZTarg8mk2]

I figured that was the case. For every one of these examples, there’s a much less outlandish explanation, like the Mandela effect being a great example of how terrible and inaccurate human memory actually is, deja-vu essentially being a brain fart etc etc, but folk love the fantastical over reality 😂 while I find the actual reasons far more fascinating

[@julius43461]

Deja Vu was something I'd experience multiple times per year when I was a kid (teens-twenties). But as I got older it went away and I haven't experienced it for many years. This made me curious, so sometimes I'd ask people when the last time they had Deja Vu was, and strangely enough older people would always say something like "It's been so many years I don't even remember." But when you ask someone younger they'd always say recently. I wonder if it just has something to do with our brain still developing when we're younger.

[@mikicerise6250]

The older you get, the more alternate yous die. ;)

[@skipstopstart]

Back to the science though: not sure if your Doctor will still tell you this but- apparently if you have deja-vu far more often than usual all of a sudden you should get a check up. It may be a sign of a neurological issue related to potentially fatal conditions, brain bleeds, tumors etcetera. *Caveat: this may have been debunked & I didn't mean to panic anyone, so don't quote me on it.

[@ArtistJoshuaWeigand]

I had not noticed the drop off of Deja Vu as people get older. It sounds like a legitimate observation to me. I've heard about the idea that dreams are you brain simulating potential futures to prepare you for different possibilities. I buy that idea. I think that Deja Vu is when you're in a situation you dreamt of. I also recall my mother when I was fairly young saying that she was doing laundry even in her dreams. It wasn't long after that that her dreams kinda faded into not being remembered after she woke up. So perhaps when a person is settled and in a routine and there is less need to simulate potential futures as there once was, dreams diminish, and if they are linked like I think, that could be why Deja Vu diminishes over time as well.

The best example in Sci-Fi of parallel universes, time travel, etc is Fringe (TV Show produced by FOX 2008-20013 101 episodes) the best Sci-Fi TV show ever made. The show explores so many more ideas than that, but parallel universes is at the core of the show. Another example of an apparent Mandela effect happens with people referencing the Stockholm syndrome as the Helsinki syndrome. It happened after the popular movie Die Hard where the writers made that mistake and then the movie ended up being so popular that many people actually heard about what Stockholm syndrome is with the wrong term.

And I think there was a newspaper that reported on Mandella's *_Early_* death, not sure how that could have gotten mixed up... so... yeah...

Hey! I have to say that the Mandela effect is one of the biggest "wtf" moments of my life. I VERY VIVIDLY recall being taught about Mandela in 4th grade at the same time I was taught about Gandhi, as people who took a stance for their own country, and they were dead at the time (1999). I also saw this in multiple documentaries. Additionally, I also vividly recall reading a book about South African apartheid in 2002 in English classes where Mandela was VERY dead. I can't recall the exact name of the book but it spoke about his journey, his imprisonment and death. When I heard that Mandela was about to die in 2013 (and the funeral part) I literally froze. I'm from South America and have no particular interest in Mandela whatsoever; the guy was 100% dead for all I knew; to this day I find it extremely hard to believe he wasn't dead. The term "Mandela effect" was not coined until some time later; I thought I was crazy for some time until I came across this and figured I was not alone lol.

[@Luggruff]

Considering I once had an hour long Deja Vu experience where I was hyper aware of it, I believe it is basically just a repeat of the current moment just a few milliseconds after it happens - Like a stutter or something. Because you can never predict the next thing to happen, no matter how long it goes on. After all, we never experience the moment anyways. Anything hitting the senses has already happened by the time we perceive it.

[@LucasWIZONE]

I sometimes can predict what happens when theres a 'deja vu' ongoing, like '...now this person wearing *bla bla* will pass in front of me...' and it does, things like that, confirming that i've seen this scene happening before in the exact same way, but who knows, the brain is weird

I've had a few experiences. I was asked to write a story and take photos for an advertising feature. It was at an old and rambling inn in a quaint town. I'd driven by many times and it was an impressive sight -- old, Victorian, four storeys and massive. When the owner met me and welcomed me inside, the instant I walked in the big front doors I knew I'd been there before and could remember every room in the original structure. There was a more recent addition to the building but it wasn't part of my memories. Deja Vu? Parallel universe? Another time I was driving my car from work, cross country on old winding roads to meet my wife at her inlaws' place. I had $5 which was meant for fuel for the car which was on empty when I left. The trip was roughly two hours long and before I could stop for fuel, I picked up an old man who was hitchhiking. We talked and I found out he'd been on the road for days heading for what he hoped was work. He'd slept in woods and ditches and hadn't eaten for three days. He had an old duffle bag with his worldly possessions. We came to a little canteen/takeout in the middle of nowhere and I gave him the $5 and told him to go inside and buy a hamburger. He came out with a loaf of bread and some peanut butter and a plastic knife and that had taken all of the money. I dropped him off on the road he needed to take and drove another hour to meet my wife. The car was still on empty and when I filled it up (after going to an ATM which were few and far between back in those days) the next morning it took a full tank. How I drove for two hours on an empty tank I have no idea.

The book (s) she mentioned in the beginning referred to Philip Pullman's 'His Dark Materials' trilogy. It's a work of fiction based on the given that parallel universes exist and can be accessed through portals. It's basically an adventure story and is pretty dark in places, but it's a wonderful read if you're into that sort of thing. I loved it and everybody I know who's read it also loved it. And while I'm typing, may I say that I so approve of your presentational style. It's refreshingly calm, objective, and unobtrusive.

[@KeldonA]

A plausible explanation for the Mandella effect is based on the fact that neurons that fire together wire together, and another member of the ANC who at the time was as notable as Mandella had died in prison in the 80s. And since episodic memory is reconstructive in nature, a person's attempt to recall the ANC member who died also triggers Mandella, but being much more notable as a president of South Africa while forgetting the ANC member who died in prison is recalled as the person who died.

The thing about Mandela isn't just in looking back and getting it wrong. It's that when his release was reported, the reaction was, "But, you told us he died." There was no internet to speak of in 1990, so we couldn't call out the media on their BS or pull up old reports back then.

According To Chat GPT: The original spelling of the series was "Looney Tunes" when it debuted in 1930. The name was a parody of "Silly Symphonies," a popular series of musical cartoons produced by Walt Disney Productions at the time. However, in 1936, the spelling was changed to "Looney Toons" before being changed back to "Looney Tunes" later that same year, which has been the standard spelling ever since.....The children's book series is officially called "The Berenstain Bears," but many people remember it being spelled as "The Berenstein Bears" with an "e" instead of an "a." This phenomenon is known as the "Mandela Effect," and the likely explanation is that the uncommon name "Berenstain" led to people assuming it was spelled differently, along with the pronunciation of the name with a long "i" sound. The official spelling is "The Berenstain Bears."

In regards to the Mandela Effect, the two things I found most strange is the Berenstein Bears (Mrs. Pagan gave it to us as a extra credit spelling word in a 2nd grade spelling test), and the "You like me, you really like me!"

In Star Trek Next Generation there are episodes where Multiverses play a role. Personally, I don't know what to make of it. All this has so many aspects that we basically know nothing about.

[@theghettoracle]

The M.E or Mandela Effect is more of like where about 65% of people which are deeply Intune with pop culture enough to even notice when a change has taken place right off the bat without even 2nd guessing, I believe the key factor is the subconscious mind storing that particular piece of pop culture (like how we have nostalgia linking us to a direct memory associated with that piece of pop culture) like a photograph and its details and sending signals to our consciousness automatically that there is something different about what we remember. I do agree that there are plenty of other cases where misremembering certain Mandela effects are possible but then again who are we to debate about what somebody remembers or doesn't? All I know is Brittney Spears was wearing a plaid skirt in the "Baby One More Time" music video and not all black.

[@badaboum2]

Sounds like you're mixing up 2 memories. Americans have no damn idea how to pronounce words or names consistently, different people both spelled "-stein" will give you different pronounciations of "steen" and "stine", but on paper it should just be "stine" (well "shtine" really), every time, it's german for "stone".

I'm not all that bright, and the whole interstellar quantum mechanics thing is way out of my wheelhouse... But I've always hypothesized that a black hole wasn't a hole of any kind. It's from an imploding star, you see stuff get sucked in, you can't see anything in the middle, and time warps around it, slowing as you get further in. To me, the best explanation would be the star is still there, crushed into what is essentially a diamond, and the more it absorbs, the bigger the diamond, and... the more it will absorb because that's what gravity does when things get too heavy/dense/big. The universe is most populated by carbon, so... what happens when a ton of carbon gets compressed? It would become something we couldn't see (or could see through) from this distance. As for MVT, I absolutely believe every single word... while I'm reading about it... Otherwise, nah. I want to believe it. It's cool... but no. I don't.

While not even being close to the earliest, Robert Heinlein's "The Number of the Beast" is one of the more interesting earlier novels about parallel universes.

A Mandela effect specific to the UK is the packaging colour of cheese and onion and salt and vinegar Walker’s crisps (potato chips). Some people believe the colours were originally Salt and Vinegar=Blue and Cheese and Onion= Green, and then, at some point the these were swapped without any announcement or explanation from Walker’s. Many people believe this, so much so that Walker’s have it in their FAQ section on their website. There is even a podcast specifically about this called The Walker’s Switch.

[@daimyo2k]

From what I understand, the phenomenon of "Dejavu" is actually caused from a minor delay in messaging to your brain. When light enters your eyes and then processed by your brain, on a rare occasion, something happens where the light entering one eye is received slower by the brain than the other eye. So while your brain is processing information gathered from one eye it is then processing duplicate information from the other eye, offset/overlapped by and obviously small amount of time. This gives the illusion that you have seen/done something before.

The Mandela Effect that bothers me the most is Rodin's sculpture "The Thinker". It was part of a large commission begun in 1880 for a doorway surround called The Gates of Hell and the first of the bronze castings was made in 1904. I am 65 years old and have seen pictures of the statue all my life and it has changed at some point. It has always been a sculpture of a sitting man lost in thoughts with his forehead supported by his closed fist. Now the sculpture touches with the knuckles of the fingers to its mouth and the fingers are straightened. There are a lot of evidence of the sculpture in a position that many people remember (= fist against forehead) in books, art articles, etc. etc. Here are some : - text in an art book: “It appears that Rodin showed himself from his right profile, naked, crouching, his left hand to his forehead, his right hand by …” - text in Use Upper-intermediate Teacher's Book: “(Auguste Rodin: The Thinker, 1880) This is a sculpture of a man sitting with his forehead supported by his fist, lost in thought.” - Ralph Milton's novel: “I put my right hand across my forehead, and my right elbow on my right knee. I got the idea from the sculpture by Auguste Rodin called The Thinker.” - Rodin himself has described his sculpture like this: “What makes my Thinker think is that he thinks not only with his brain, with his knitted brow, his distended nostrils and compressed lips, but with every muscle of his arms, back, and legs, with his CLENCHED fist and gripping toes.” - Author George Bernard Shaw (1865-1950) was Rodin's friend and often acted as his model. Shaw had a photographer friend, Alvin Langdon Coburn, whom he also introduced to Rodin. They both attended the unveiling of "The Thinker" and looked closely at the sculpture for a long time and chatted with Rodin. Later, on the way home, Shaw got the idea to pose naked in the pose of that statue and Coburn could photograph it. The picture was taken the same evening from the statue that both of them had just seen and studied. Shaw is posing in exactly the position that many people remember the statue as, i.e. fist against forehead. www.alamy.com/george-bernard-shaw-in-the-pose-of-rodins-the-thinker-image268794618.html

Is your throat alright? I been watching for a while and just been curious

[@donkfail1]

"His Dark Materials is a trilogy of fantasy novels by Philip Pullman..." Wikipedia It's some good reading. The parallel universes aren't a central thing in the story to begin with, so don't start reading it expecting dimension jumping from the start. It's more that it gets established that they exist as you read. I had much fun reading it before I realised that we had parallel worlds. Not that I'm an expert on fictional parallel worlds, but Clive Barker's Imajica from 1991 is both his and my favorite of his novels. This is fantasy rather than sci-fi, with Earth as one "dominion" among four others. It can be seen as five worlds only accessible through magic, so not sure if parallel *universes* is the right term. But it has the same result anyway. As I'm writing about worlds inaccessible for mere normal humans, I have to mention the trilogy C. S. Lewis wrote before he got stuck in Narnia; Out of the Silent Planet (1938), Perelandra (1943) and That Hideous Strength (1945). Not at all about parallel universes, but a very interesting take on sci-fi mixed up with some of Lewis' corny new age religion. The books are *very* different and I almost gave up on book two, until I recognised a lot of similarities to some things in Lord of the Rings. (Lewis and Tolkien were friends and often discussed their writing.) So now I almost want to credit LotR to Lewis in some parts. I think it is worth a read though, even if I saw the second book as a hurdle, where the worlds in our system is inhabited by other people and ruled by higher powers. I mention it mostly because in both Imajica and here, Earth is isolated from the other worlds that all have knowledge of each other. For more parallel universe fun, watch the TV series Fringe (2008-2013).

12:18 honestly, my uneducated theory about the city in the sky is that it was a freak refraction event involving the water in the air and clouds somehow reflecting the skyline of a city on the ground. Kind of nature's version of "smoke and mirrors".

[@Joseph-le5zk]

ONE OF MY FAVORITE SCI-FI SERIES IS/WAS "FRINGE" I HAD TO BUY IT AND IT CONTINUES TO AMAZE ME NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I WATCH IT AND GOING ON MY FOURTH GO AND THEY COVER EVERYTHING ON THE "FRINGE" OF REALITHY. THE PROYAGONIST ANNA TORV IS AN AMAZING ACTRESS AND HAD TO PLAY TWO PERSONALITIES BUT ACTUALLY THREE CUZ SHE HAD TO ALSO PLAY HERSELF.

[@LunatiqHigh]

Yeah, I remember my old grade 2 or 3 teacher (80's) and he asked us to spell Looney Tunes and most of the kids spelled it Toons and then he went on about the history of music in cartoons etc. So it's always been there, but our child brains probably associated with what made most sense to us at the time.

[@therealestninja]

I never really cared about the fancier color names. Maybe I'm too simple, or maybe it's because I just can't picture colors in my head. I always used to roll my eyes when I'd hear other kids my age go on about the more obscure colors (meaning more obscure than the primary and secondary colors). I didn't realize I was missing out on an experience that it seems most people have.

[@KeldonA]

I think the series she meant is just called Dark (Netflix), but if not, it's a solid watch that fits that profile.

[@mrintomesee]

First i heard about the city in the sky thing. If it's a mirage as it appears to be it would be interesting to see lots of difference images people took because if they all look the same then it can't be a mirage, it would be different depending on the persons geo location.

[@LexyThomas134]

You associate it with a warm color because Char probably reminds you of hot Charcoal.

[@MJScrivens89]

6:16 Human memory is reconstructive, so rather than just pull up a file like a computer would, it literally pieces it back together each time, meaning they you will never quite remember something exactly the same way twice, especially if a lot of time has passed between recalls. This could go some way to explaining the Mandela effect, as well as a combination of generally accepted misquotes (in the case of Star Wars, the line is “no, I am your father” and not “Luke, I am your father” as so many people think it is) and different pronunciations (in some accents, tunes and toons sound almost identical, for example).

[@mynameispaul0530]

Mandella Effects are very strange. I distinctly remember "Chic Fillet" growing up and not "Chick Fillet". It literally shocked me when I saw Chick on a television commercial one day. This was way before Mandella Effect became popular. We used to make jokes about the "Chic" word because it sounded so rich for a fast food place.

[@ideitbawxproductions1880]

OK, this might be a nitpick, but I gotta say this: from my understanding, the reason they were called "Looney Tunes" was because Warner was trying to find a way to show off their massive music catalogue, so they started an animation studio as a way to accompany the music with a visual medium. This not only explains why they were called "Looney *Tunes"* and "Merrie *Melodies"* but also why there were several cartoons set to famous classical pieces. The irony of this whole idea is that the cartoons became more popular than the music they were trying to promote lol

As early as 1959 "Twilight Zone" episodes included concepts of Time Travel, Alternate Realities and Parallel Universes. As far as proof of the existence of any of this, well, it's hard to prove a negative. Most of the concepts in this video, however, are explainable as conspiracy theories, anecdotes, pseudo science or normal mental processes, as evidenced by her disclaimer "seems to suggest" which preface most of the examples. A great movie that postulates an alternate reality in which the Beatles never got together is "Yesterday."

[@Sadarsa]

I'm amazed that the "Luke, I am your father" one wasn't included as it's far more known than many others listed here... in fact I'm surprised it wasn't #1

[@lonnievannatter2612]

You should check out the TV show Sliders... Its about a college student who finds a way to cross the Einstein-Rosen bridge and travel Parallel Earths but they get stuck and can't get back to the prime Earth

[@BankzZ89]

The Winged Beatle "documentary" (it's on youtube in several parts) about Paul McCartney and The Beatles is pretty interesting.

[@TheRootedWord]

4:48 I also thought he had died in prison because I heard it reported. Turns out the report was of someone ASSOCIATED with Mandela who died in prison and all of us were only half hearing the report. No one recognized the name of the other fellow and simply associated Mandela with the man who died in prison. And none of us followed Mandela regularly since there was no Internet yet.

[@zoltanposfai3451]

I had several discussions on this topic with my other selves, but we never managed to reach a consensus, as we all approach the question from a slightly different angle.

[@jevogroni4829]

I had chartruse in my head the same.

[@joeriggi87]

I'm an artist and 1000% remember chartreuse being magenta. I've never seen that yellow color until this video.

[@nikistauffer2694]

Well. It has got it's name from a french green-yellowish liqour...so you 1000% remember it wrong ;)

[@theeternalsw0rd]

Interestingly, if you take the yellow and magenta values for chartreuse in cmyk and swap them, you arrive at a color I think is mistaken for it. It makes me wonder if someone didn't make a transposition error on an order, and that color became more popular under the wrong color name. Or perhaps that color didn't have a name yet but was advertised as complementary to chartreuse.

[@TheAwsomeness324]

our memories are not reliable. our brains are really great at filling in the details. so we can make up memories so well to the point where we believe them to be true.

[@gswithen]

When speaking of parallel universes I will always chime in and recommend The Talisman and The Dark Tower by King.

[@Icurious14u]

When I was 5 or younger...I saw ghosts...dressed in monk like garb...hooded, covering their face and long flowing robes, carrying candles and walking in single file, right to left atop the staircase in a second story hallway. I didnt know what ghost were so they did not scare me and were just a curiosity thing for me which I would witness as the sun would go down and it became darker and I could see them as they revealed themselves. Later in my life (age of 16) my sister would also confess to seeing and we shared stories confirming the exact descriptions we both had seen to be exactly identical. But upon drilling my mother with numerous question about the house and area I could not see any reason for "Satanical looking" monks to be inhabiting the house....My mom said the house was relatively new and they were first time occupants and there were know monasteries, churches or grave yards built in that area in the past...It was had been farm land or farmland since colonization. My only conclusion was another dimension or parallel universe as there was no other reason for them being there or I of seeing them.

[@mikefelty2625]

This is the first I'm learning of chartreuse not being a color that was kinda between magenta and fuschia...

[@lawaughn]

I remember Looney Toons. There were very few TV channels. On Saturday morning Looney Toons was on Channel 7 in DC. Cartoons were for the most part Only shown on Saturday mornings before noon. At noon the free movies started playing. This is not a misremember or suggested memory. This was part of my life every Saturday morning. I also remember Mandela dying in prison. It was all over the news for weeks. I saw it with my own eyes. I also could “smell what the Rock was cooking”.

[@LuisMedina-yq5fd]

The Monopoly man, from what I remember had a Monocle 🧐 but apparently he never did 🤷🏽‍♂️. It's also referenced By Ace Ventura in "Pet Detective"

[@jamesstead2256]

i remember that he did have a Monocle

[@badaboum2]

Monocles are just common on top hat wearing mustachioed fat cat characters. Mr. Monopoly is in that folder of your brain, so you remember him having the typical characteristics of this type of character.

[@devinup3981]

I've never heard the chartreuse thing before but yes! If you asked me, I would say it's a pink/purple color. It's definitely not yellow.

[@tetrasphere8165]

Tape on neck scar? Why?

[@JeFilm94]

The Mandela effect is most likely a result of mass misremembering, due to a variation of reasons which are then reinforced by people misremembering doubling down on each other’s false memories. Like how everyone thought the famous line in Star Wars was “Luke, I am your father” by repeating the line wrong in pop culture for decades - but in fact the line is “No, I am your father”. A troubling thought that struck me just now is how this phenomenon can be weaponised. If you repeat false information to a large population enough times to where they will repeat it to each other..

[@keith_dixon]

The Berenstain Bears was mispelled on Direct TV's channel guide for several years in the late 90's and early 2000's. Which is why so many people, i suspect whom of which never watched the show, remember it being spelled with an E instead of an A.
