I've kinda been aware of this for a while... but yesterday, randomly, I came across a couple of videos that piqued my interest - and now my mind is blown and I'm kinda scrabbling around on the floor wondering what the hell is going on.
So, the Mandela Effect is a whole bunch of things that a lot of people remember differently to how they actually are. For example, the guitarist from the who is called Pete Townsend. But now, his surname contains an "h" that wasn't there before. Not only is he now Pete Townshend, but he's always been Pete Townshend. And if you hook out an old vinyl from the 70's - he's got an "h" back then too. The whole timeline is buggered.
In Snow White, "Mirror, mirror on the wall" is now "Magic mirror on the wall".
In Forrest Gump he doesn't say "Life is like a box of chocolates", he says "Life was like a box of chocolates".
In Jaws, it's not "We're gonna need a bigger boat", it's "You're gonna need a bigger boat".
Darth Vader doesn't say "Luke, I am your father", he's say's "No, I am your father".
Sex in the City is now called Sex and the City (and apparently - always has been).
It's really subtle little things, but it's killing me.
And here's the one that I cannot get my head around. It's more for the Americans among us... but it's a crazy one. I lived in the States for a couple of years at the end of the 90's. I used to read my kids a series of books about the Berenstein Bears. But, as of now - They're called the Berenstain Bears. With an "a".
I can't get my head around this at all. The girl in this video sums it up perfectly...
