25 Mind Blowing Mandela Effect Instances

the term Mandela effect originated in 2013 when Nelson Mandela passed away to explain a sort of collective false memory after he died there were people who were baffled not because he had passed away but because they had sworn he had been dead since the 80s for some reason loads of people thought that Mandela had been dead for years and it became known as a common fact by some even though the phenomenon didn't originate with this event it did popularize the idea and now people see Mandela effects everywhere I'm Mike with list25 and today we're sharing some of the most famous and craziest ones so let's look at 25 mind-blowing Mandela effect instances that will well blow your mind but before we begin don't forget to like share comment subscribe click that notification Bell so you don't miss out on any new content join our Discord do all that fun stuff and I do have a load of people asking me why I asked you guys to like but for the video I'm not I'm reminding you before the video to then like because if we wait till the end a lot of people click off and don't see that so I'm doing it at the beginning so that you guys see it so yeah wait to like until after you watch it but I'm just reminding you at the beginning that's all with that all out of the way let's go or have we already gone is this a false memory [Music] 25 Nelson Mandela let's start off with the original Mandela effect the one dealing with man himself Nelson Mandela is most famous for being a former president of South Africa but he also served 21 years in prison until he was released in 1990. he died in 2013 as I previously stated but after his death people started scratching their heads in confusion many people thought he had died while he was in prison in the 80s this is strange considering he didn't become the president of South Africa until after he got out of prison and yet people swore that he had died in the 80s a paranormal researcher coined the term Mandela effect to explain this phenomena and the rest was history 24. Oscar Mayer or Oscar Meyer it would seem as though not even hot dogs are safe from the dreaded Mandela effect even though many remember the famous Wienermobile and packaging they get the spelling of the brand completely wrong many people including dozens of newspaper articles over the entirety of the company's history have been spelling it Oscar Mayer m-e-y-e-r when it is in fact Oscar Mayer with an a m-a-y-e-r don't believe me well then check out my friend and the writer of this article and his wife at the famous Wienermobile hopefully I'm pointing at it hopefully we put it here so the next time you think of the famous Wiener Song Remember the correct spelling my Abalone has a first name oh it's not really even a wiener 23. Uncle Sam's hat the famous I want you advertisement for the US Army was created in 1917 in an effort to get more people to sign up for the military it was instantly iconic and holds a very dear place for many patriots across the country there's no doubt that the imagery of Good Old Uncle Sam is synonymous with the United States hold on what's he look like again many will tell you he's dressed in a blue jacket white shirt red bow tie and the patented red white and blue top hat this however is not the case Uncle Sam's hat is actually a simple white top hat with a blue band and stars on it there are no red stripes at all on his hat despite it being completely wrong a hat with red stripes is sold as merch and is an American symbol in and of itself 22. beat me up Scotty people distinctly remember James T Kirk saying beam me up Scotty while Captain Kirk said variations of the line he never said the actual phrase in the entirety of the original series he said many variations of the line but never actually the full phrase beam me up Scotty the closest he ever came to this famously misquoted line was when he said Beam us up Scotty sure it's close but it isn't exact and isn't what is endlessly referenced 21. you like me you really like me you may not know where this quote came from but you've almost definitely heard it in some form or another the quote comes from the 1985 Oscars When Sally Fields gave her acceptance speech for best actress however she never said you like me you're really like me she actually said this time I feel it and I can't deny the fact that you like me right now you like me she was made fun of by many people it was spoofed by the mask and she was even openly mocked by Madonna all for something she never actually said 21. Lucy you've got some explaining to do everyone remembers the famous quote from one of TV's most iconic comedies I Love Lucy anyone who watched or knows about the show remembers Lucy's husband Ricky Ricardo exclaiming you've got some splendon to do whenever Lucy would get in trouble and she would a lot even though we remember this happening quite frequently on the show and even though we've heard it referenced in countless other TV shows well it was never said on the show people claim it came from he asked Lucy to explain in many other ways except the most famous variation 19. Looney Tunes despite remembering the title being spelled Looney Tunes t-o-o-n-s and it makes complete sense for it to be spelled like that Tunes like as in cartoons that's not how it's spelled it all in fact it's always been spelled with a u Looney Tunes t-u-n-e-s the reason why they spell it this way is because of the inspiration of Walt Disney's Silly Symphonies the very first shorts were animations with musical compositions owned by Warner Brothers 18. Smokey the Bear isn't real while we all lovingly call the Wildfire awareness mascot Smokey the Bear that's not his actual name his name is just Smokey Bear even though the only thing we hear in our heads when we walk through the woods is the wise words of smokey warning us to prevent wildfires we just can't seem to get his actual name right sorry smokey 17. does Frosty the Snowman have a scarf when we think about Frosty the Snowman we picture his old Top Hat his pipe and button nose but does he have a scarf many would say that he does and they'd be fair in thinking that considering much of the merchandise and decorations that have Frosty on them depict him with a red scarf however Frosty does not have a scarf in the original 1969 TV short we've seen so many holiday decorations out Frosty with a scarf that seeing him without one just feels wrong 16. Shazam starring Sinbad many people remember Sinbad portraying a genie named Shazam in a movie with the same name this isn't the case though many people are getting Shazam confused with the actual movie called Kazam which starred Shaq as a genie things get more confusing though as people claim to have VHS copies of Shazam and they claim they no longer play Sinbad made light of this particular instance when he released fake footage of Shazam as an April Fool's joke God I have this one I I do I remember I I've seen Kazam and I also remember Sinbad I yeah I fall into that category 15. Captain Crunch oh yes the good old Captain sailing on a sea of milk straight into our hearts or mouths good old Captain Crunch but wait he is a captain right well it appears as though the name of the cereal is actually just cotton crunch the man on the box is nothing more than a liar a pirate and a scallywag no wonder the cereal is being discontinued what this is how I'm finding it no no this is how I'm finding out the cereals being discontinued well nobody wants a liar in the cereal aisle what okay let me know down in the comments below if you know if Captain Crunch has been Captain sorry crunch has been discontinued I see an article from 2011 saying it was but you know that was 12 years ago so is there a Mandela effect about it being canceled oh my God 14. Shaggy's Adam's apple everyone's favorite green shirted hippie investigator everyone can picture him perfectly his green shirt brown pants chin facial hair shaggy hair and Adam's apple sounds accurate right wrong Shaggy doesn't have an Adam's apple in the classic cartoons some people claim that the original character aired with an Adam's apple and was later drawn out but even those people would be wrong some even applauded the 2015 reboot be cool Scooby-Doo for adding the Adam's apple as an homage to the Shaggy of old how wrong they were 13. Toto I don't think we're in Kansas anymore we've all been LED away from the path of yellow brick road because we've been getting this quote wrong for years the real quote is actually Toto I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore which in hindsight makes more sense given the time period in the movie but you know I'm still upset how many more movie quotes have we been saying wrong is there no end to this madness 12. The Berenstein Bears perhaps one of the most well-known instances of the Mandela effect other than of course the one with you know Nelson Mandela himself this one comes from the classic stories of a family of bears but what is the family's name many think it's Berenstein Bears with E.I which is fair that's usually how it's pronounced but the correct spelling is actually the Berenstain Bears a-i-n now as wrong as that looks and feels in your heart it's the truth sorry to break your brain a little bit on that one 11. does Mickey Mouse have a tail Mickey Mouse have a tail some people think he does and some think he doesn't well he in fact does have a tail and always has he's had a tail since his first appearance in Steamboat Willie maybe the confusion comes from the Disney theme parks where when you meet him he doesn't have a tail although I wonder why he puts his tail away for the theme park 10. just curious George have a tail in a similar situation to the Mickey Mouse tale Mandela this one poses the question to another beloved cartoon character however this time around the truth is actually the opposite Curious George in fact does not have a tail many people believe that at least at one point George had a tail but no Curious George has been tailless for the entirety of his storied career in books and TV because he's a chimp and they don't have tails 9. Salem witch trials when we think about the Salem Witch Trials we imagine a colonial era of an American town with women being accused of being witches and then being executed and burned at the stake or even drowned but did it really happen that way well in actuality the women who were accused of being witches were executed by hanging none were drowned or burned as we've seen in books and on TV why we see this in history books museums and countless movies and TV May forever be a mystery maybe it's just more interesting I don't know also pressing I believe one person was killed by pressing I believe it was a guy I forget his name eight fly my pretties fly the Wicked Witch of the West sends her flying monkey minions to hunt down Dorothy and shouts fly fly my pretties fly just nailed it except she doesn't all the wicked witch says is fly fly she never calls any of the flying monkeys pretties where did we get my pretties from how have so many people misquoted this even in shows and movies it's misquoted how have we become so confused 7. Cocoa Puffs aren't Coco picture this you're a kid you've just woken up on a Saturday morning you get ready to pour a bowl of your favorite chocolate-based puff cereal now in your head are you picturing Cocoa Puffs c-o-c-o or Cocoa Puffs c-o-c-o a if you said the first one oh you're wrong now don't go cuckoo you'll be okay we too didn't realize it was Coco this entire time maybe it does just end with an o in a parallel universe or alternate timeline ooh Hollywood get on that the Kellogg the breakfast cereal universe amazing they're characters it rides itself six life isn't a box of chocolates well we can categorize this one as another miscoded movie line prepare for a shock but the famous movie line is not laugh is like a box of chocolates but it's actually life was like a box of chocolates the movie is based on a novel so it's possible that the book says the line differently but for the research has not confirmed nor disproven that theory so we're not really sure where the confusion comes from on this one well you never know what you're going to get either way 5. Dorothy must do what with her heels heading back again to the wonderful world of Oz because apparently we can't remember anything from The Wizard of Oz correctly many remember that the way for Dorothy to return home was that she must repeat the phrase there's no place like home there's no place like home there's no place like home and then clicker heels three times however is it click some people think the correct phrasing is clap her heels three times others say click well which is it surprise both sides of the argument are wrong the actual wording is tap her heels three times are we sure we even watched the same movie four mirror mirror is actually magic mirror mirror mirror on the wall who is the fairest of them all the evil queen from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs sang one of the best lines ever spoken by a Disney villain what a classic wait that's not what she said the actual quote is magic mirror on the wall who is the fairest one of all even the second part wasn't what we thought it was that's a whole new quote that's two Mandela effects in one it doesn't feel right everything is a lie three C-3PO isn't all gold surely C-3PO is and has always been all gold it's what he's known for being all gold and being proficient in many many languages and yet he isn't all gold in fact C-3PO has a silver lag how have we overlooked this surely there must be some appearance he's made where he's been all gold but no except in episode three C3 APO has had a silver leg since his very first appearance we've all been fooled even toy makers have been fooled they've made C-3PO action figures that are all gold maybe this is where the confusion comes from and yes in the opening scene of episode four a new hope you can clearly see he has one silver leg and if I remember correctly it is his left and then in episode one he's just the guts and in episode two he's all silver and then episode three he is all polished gold but in episode 4 onwards it's silver and obviously you gain the red one but no one recognizes him because the red arm so not even sure that's actually see through 2. the Monopoly man everyone knows the famous or inFAMOUS depending on who you ask Monopoly man picturing him in our mind we see the classic man with his mustache his suit his top hat and his monocle but is that actually how he looks as you probably could have guessed by now the answer is no the Monopoly man has no monocle no eyeglasses nothing to even suggest he needs any sort of corrective lens the man has had 20 20 Vision this whole time and we all thought he looked like the fancy man with his monocle even looking at all the boxes of Monopoly man lore not once has he ever had a monocle what I think is happening here is people in their minds are twisting Monopoly with many bags money bags that's his name right yeah I think they're mixing up him with Mr Peanut Mr Peanut has a monocle and I think that's what's happening one Luke I am your father what an iconic line constantly quoted beloved by millions is too bad it's not the actual line that's right the infamous moment when Darth Vader says Luke I am your father a spoiler alert by the way is never once said in any of the Star Wars movies the actual line said an Empire Strikes Back is no I am your father some people blame many movies that incorrectly quote the movie and it's gotten so bad the New Yorker rated this line as the number one misquoted line in movie history so what are some of your favorite examples of the Mandela effect let us know in the comments below and as always like I said like share comment subscribe click the notification Bell join our Discord check out our shorts do all that fun stuff misquote movies to us do whatever you want to do just interact that's the best way you can help I bet my arms are gone that's the best way that you can help and we would really appreciate it thank you guys so much and as always I'll see you next time or will I maybe this was all that I already use that joke damn it [Music]
