Can You Get These "Mandela Effects" Correct? Is anything real?

[@feanaro2712]

Looney Tunes was oddly the only one I was sure of. I don't know why, but Toons just looked so immediately wrong to me. That being said, it was entertaining to watch Ryan be absolutely livid about it.

[@feanaro2712]

@@scarclem Oooh, that explains it! I'm Australian, so obviously "toon" wouldn't sound right to me.

[@beth_m]

Same!! I remember being in Six Flags and always seeing Looney Tunes,and as a kid seeing it as Looney Tunes 😂, there's even a Looney Tunes Show that's like modern Looney Tunes, so I knew something was up with "Looney Toons"

[@hanonondricek411]

Yeah, I think the show was named before "toon" was commonly understood as shorthand for cartoon. And many of the early shorts were dialog-free and just set to music.

[@belenjohnson637]

I also love them questioning them singing when there’s a lot of songs throughout all episodes. Specifically by bugs

[@VyeLikesRocks]

Yes it was the only one I got right.

[@Rognik]

Part of the thing about Loony Tunes is that their shorts were called "Merry Melodies". They rarely sang, but there was a musical score that was accented by their motions.

[@barbicel]

Whats worse is that they had another show called Tiny Toons. So for me it made sense it was called Looney Toons Cuz theyre were loony cartoons, ya know? And they sang more in tiny toons than in looney tunes, so wtf 😭

[@brookecarver4519]

I think Sam was right about the Mandela Effect being a confusion between two similar memories, because the woman who thought that Mandela had died in jail in 1980 probably just confused him with Stephen Biko (the anti-apartheid activist) who was killed in jail in 1977.

[@sabinegunzl]

no, many people were sure they saw mandelas funeral on tv or sth.

[@thehockeyfinn]

I was 100% sure that Mandela was dead but then I watched his funeral in 2013... I was definitely confused.

[@iliilianaana]

no bc how the hell do you miss all of the important stuff he did after his release from prison

[@alexsagesivori6966]

The Looney Tunes name was inspired by Walt Disney's musical cartoon series, Silly Symphonies. I worked as Looney Tunes characters (not voice actors) and I STILL had to look this up as to why it's named that

[@duyguvulpes]

The one about Monopoly Man can't be explained by that logic because I also remember him wearing a monocle and I have no idea who Peanut man is

[@the_elite_truth]

I've found a lot of people think he had it due to Pet Deceive 2, he says a guy is the Monopoly Guy and he had a monocle Peanut man is the Planters Peanuts, he was all over the commercials because he "died" then he came back as a baby

[@duyguvulpes]

@@the_elite_truth I don't know anything about Pet Deceive either... But if you asked me if the Pringles man had a monocle I would probably say yes. So maybe it's just the kind of face that we associate with monocles.

[@SuperMarioBrosIII]

@@duyguvulpes The movie The Heathers Winona Ryder is wearing a monocle in a couple scenes and it just looks very odd? In the movie Mr. Deeds the Monopoly Man appears with his monocle hmm.... and Ryder was in that movie too!🧐😮🤷🙆‍♀

[@danineves5419]

it's funny the "Tunes/Toons" debate to me bc I'm Brazilian so I've pronounced the name as if it was in Portuguese (something like "law-nay too-knees") so I don't even think twice because it doesn't make any sense for it to be Toons

[@claireoneill3955]

Something about Ryan’s hi dad at the start of the video sounded so nice and genuine I just really liked the greeting

i only got the last one correct because non-american accent means toons and tunes are pronounced differently so i was just going based off how child me would pronounce it... perks of an aussie accent i suppose

[@ToxicPopsicle]

I got 7/8 as well because I was so sure it was Smokey the Bear. I knew the Looney Tunes one because I had a Looney Tunes shirt when I was kid and my mom has a picture of me wearing it on her wall, so every time I visit, I see it.

I have never loved being brazilian more. We call looney tunes here "looney tooneys" because thats what the brazilian pronunciation of english words tells us to do, so i got the looney tunes one right. (Even tho i didnt know the bear one, never heard of him lol)

[@rhigan7622]

7:40 I really believe that the Jif peanut butter is also two memories. Back in the day, there were also Jiffy baking mixes. Now you can still sometimes find Jiffy baking mix as a competitor to Bisquick mix, but when I was a kid, there were all these boxes of Jiffy mix and they were cornbread and muffin mixes. Anyway, I think our parents mixed the brands up and it’s like, a legacy Mandela Effect.

Of all the examples this effect could be named after Mandella is the strangest to Me. I was barely a teenager and I CLEARLY REMEMBER when Nelson Mandella was released from jail. It was HUGE , WORLDWIDE NEWS. I was in grade school and I DEFINITELY remember we talked about it when it happened. The only other current events I remember being brought up in grade school were the Berlin War falling. The start of the Iraq War which was right around the same time as Mandella if I'm not mistaken. And finally, the most difficult of them all. The Space Shuttle Challenger exploding. I was in 3rd grade and they put the whole school in the gymnasium to watch the liftoff of the challenger due to the TEACHER being a crew member. That was a huge deal so we all knew about it. When it exploded everyone was stunned. The adults freaked out.

[@HopeGardner3amed]

I think Looney Tunes was a response to Merry Melodies (Disney's cartoon shorts in 1930s/40s) and that's why it is tunes and not toons. They are both from the same era after all. Edit: You looked it up and it was Silly Symphonies apparently.

[@TimeFrost]

I actually got baited on all of them except the last one. I just remember my first grade teacher saying that Looney Tunes was animations made for classical music. So funny pun. Lmao

Also would u ever consider reacting to heathers Tik toks since meant to be yours is trending right now I just think it would be a cool video idea

[@HappilyAfterEver]

I watched the Berenstain Bears TV show (the original 80s one) as a kid and clearly remember them ALWAYS saying it as “BerenSTAIN” at the beginning of every single episode. I think people misspoke it as Berenstein often because ”stein” is just a much more common last name ending than “stain”, and that would explain how lots of kids grew up thinking it was “stein”. It also just so happens that my parents kept ALL of our old Berenstain Bears books from the 80s and 90s and every single one is spelled the Berenstain way, from the very first book onwards.

I’m doing my thesis for English class on the Mandela Effect. It’s super cool!

[@LittleMan27]

There is a logical explanation, and it dates back to the 1920s. In the early days of animation, Disney produced short animated films, set to music, called “Silly Symphonies.” The most famous of these is probably “The Three Little Pigs.” The purpose of these mini-movies was to promote and sell music, in the form of records and sheet music. As Disney’s Silly Symphonies gained popularity, Warner Brothers, another major entertainment studio, created its own equivalent. They produced two different song-based series: “Merrie Melodies” and “Looney Tunes.” As for the “looney” part of the title, Warner Brothers wanted to indicate that their cartoons were a little wackier than the sweeter characters of Disney.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit 1988 film was the first time that Toon was understood and used as a widespread word that meant cartoon. There was a board game called Toon that came out in 1984 but was not known widespread. Tiny TOONS came out in 1990 after Roger Rabbit and were childlike versions of Bugs Bunny and all his friends which is where most of the confusion comes from because the adult version of Bugs and all his friends are Loony TUNES and Merry Melodies

[@librarymeg57]

Whereeeee are your sweatshirts from?? I’m obsessed!! Please and thank you!

[@mackenziemartin5300]

I just saw a kid who had a shirt that said "looney toons" not "tunes". Personally, I think toons makes more sense than "tunes" because looney has the double oo. Toons just makes more sense. Someone make a petition to chance it to toons instead of tunes, please.

[@kristannesplanner]

i know this video is older but i need those sweatshirts, do you happen to remember where they’re from?

[@MrBosco1692]

Looney Tunes, Silly Symphonies and Merrie Melodies.... That is the 3 "original" names of them. Pretty sure it has something to do with the music score/they didn't usually talk

Looney tunes was actually created by the same company that made Merry Melodies. also Tiny Toons is still with the double o and hasn't changed. They were based off of Looney Toons A better Mandela effect quiz would be one where they don't show you the answers and you just have to type them in such as do you know where our solar system is located in the Milky Way galaxy?
