Yes i remember it clearly being the Berenstein bears, because I use to always think that it sounded weird saying it like Stein I uses to say why they spelled it with an e instead of an a and now today when i look at it its actually an a in stain now. I'm like that's not right I rememberd it being stein it was such a popular book and cartoon growing up in the 90s that along side Arthur and the magic school bus. I and a whole lot of other 90s kids know it as stein not stain. Something totally weird is going on in our world for sure.

Mistaking a word or a picture can logically be surmized as something misremembered; but, for a mass of people around the world remembering a well know person's death is something else. I remember Mandela dying and watching the news cast where people were crying and had set up shrines on the street while placing flowers around his picture. Then about a year later I saw him alive and well on T.V.... I was confused but then just chalked it up as me stupidly misremember his death. But then, I found out that I was not the only person who remembered this... wow. I think that this is harder to explain than that childrens book.

The Monopoly man one is actually a bit more odd for those of us who remembered Ace Ventura as kid, when Ace finds the monopoly man. A short bald man with a big moustache in a tux AND a monocle. To misremember is one thing, but when other forms of media get it wrong? Hell, I asked my parents to describe the fruit of the loom logo and they listed the fruit laid out and named some of them specifically - including the horn of plenty. I asked out of no where, no prompting whatsoever and they both gave the same description, one that I also remember. The fact there apparently has never been a horn in the logo feels off on a level that is hard to explain. Also as for the bears, I remember SPECIFICALLY in grade 2 where our teacher was going over common mispronunciations, like Lie-berry instead of library. One of those was her highlighting BerenSTEIN bears, because people would mispronounce as BerenSTAIN. That was back in 91... so this shit is kinda weird today.

I think our brain see images as a whole and sometimes, by association, fill the “blanks” with what is missing. Many people that wore top hats and worked in banks or old wore a monocle. Naturally our brain just put a monocle there. If you go to a drs office and see a big colorful aquarium, maybe there were no fish, but just a bubbling water. Its unusual to have an aquarium without fish, so years later, you might remember the aquarium with fish in it.

This is EXACTLY how the term "Mandela effect" was introduced to me. A group of people were talking about this very thing!

Then after a long search and finally giving up, it suddenly appears exactly where you thought it should have been. They were discussing that it's swapping back and forth between the realities. But we're told it's our memories. In school, you study hard for the test, but the test questions aren't what you studied, and after pouring over your notes, you decide the teacher is an idiot and move on. But it could totally be swapping realities.

I am South African and I can assure you Nelson Mandela only died in 2013. He was released from prison in 1990 (I remember seeing it on TV.)

I also remember the books being the Berenstein Bear books and Pikachu having a black tip to his tail.

I wasn't American when I heard the news. First of all I don't believe Mandela Effect and these conspiracy theories. Second, I don't give a sh. about anything except truth and science. Third, I don't care what it is, but I am sure that it is not the false memory that I read on Wikipedia. I exactly remember the news about Mandela and I can tell you why I remember it vividly, because it affect my decision for the rest of my life. It was early in the morning, outside was still dark and I was eating breakfast while listening to radio, I heard the news, suddenly my mother and I look at each other with a grief. Some years later again in the morning I was listening to radio, I heard that Mandela was released from prison. Naturally I asked my mother "didn't he dye in prison some years ago"? With a very cold look my mother said what are you talking about? I thought my mother was thinking I am stupid and confusing Mandela with someone else. Then I thought to myself, the stupid Iranian government probably didn't understand the news from outside and couldn't translate to Persian correctly about his death some years ago, how I can trust this government. This is another reason that I should leave this god damn country. This is exactly what happen to me. I think maybe someone somewhere broadcast this wrong news about Mandela and other media repeat it?

The mid life baby was my best friend and we were inseparable. The parents celebrated a milestone anniversary with a big party. Then one day they had a funeral for their only boy child. He was killed in the military. The sibling remembers that it was a second marriage, it was not the wife's boy. He remembers that he dated one of the girls, who lived in the next neighborhood over, only he would have been 13 when the funeral happened and the daughters were all full adults. Plus, if he had been dating one of the girls, she would have at some point been visiting her dad, if he lived across the street from her boyfriend, but the only time I ever saw the sisters was at the funeral. Two very very different memories.

I’m 99.9% sure that cern is responsible or have to do with the Mandela effect. Logically is not possible that millions of people share the same “false” memory but is possible. Most of us remember the robber emoji that never existed. And also there are more emojis that never existed before but millions of people swear to saw them. So is more logical to assume that cern somehow unintentional created a invisible portal to a parallel universe that make us having memories from our other self living in that universe. That also can explain the Deja Vu because not necessarily others parallel universe needs to be in our present but it can also be a few days, weeks, months and years into the future therefore sometimes when we are sleeping we dream what our future self from a parallel universe is experiencing and when the day comes you will be like “huh I swear I dreamed this before”.
