If your favorite show as a child was The Berenstein Bears, I’m sorry to say that they never existed. Their last name was actually Berenstain. And if you recall the Monopoly Man having a monocle or the Fruit of the Loom logo containing a cornucopia, you’re sadly mistaken. These are all classic examples of the Mandela Effect.

And if you’re interested in even more inexplicable situations where many people swear they remember something differently than how it is today, you’ve come to the right place, pandas! Below, we’ve gathered some of the most perplexing examples of collective misremembering that have been shared in the Mandela Effect Glitch In The Matrix Facebook group. Enjoy scrolling through these stories, and keep reading to find a conversation with admin of the group, Devon Kramer!

I have had a thorough search (a ten seconds look on Google lol) and me and Ken Beattie remember it mostly correctly. I thought it was only in the original, or whenever he gulped. You can see what ken thought, go check his comment. It is in most seasons, except pup named scooby and get a clue. It's just whenever he gulps

To find out more about the Mandela Effect Glitch In The Matrix Facebook group, we reached out to Admin Devon Kramer, who was kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda.

Devon shared that he didn't actually found the group, but it was passed down to him by the creators. "One of the founders saw my 9vibesUniversal page on Facebook and reached out, asking if I would like to help this page grow," he explained. "She trusted me instantly and made me an admin."

I thought they were lower than the rib cage, that's why a punch in the lower back (below the ribs) was called a kidney shot.

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples South America moving a significant amount east (on maps) is what started me on the ME. There were maps/globes in nearly every classroom growing up. I love geography and have looked at that continent hundreds of times. It absolutely was not that far East. No chance. This one get any body else?
Edit: I am not talking about updated maps/drift. The map you find everywhere now shows SA at least 1000 miles east of what I remember. The map showing SA almost directly under NA does not exist (and apparently *never* existed. That is what qualifies this as a Mandela Effect)
I remember picture A. Picture B is evidently where SA has always been located

Devon shared that he first became interested in the Mandela Effect after having a near death experience. "I started looking for answers to my NDE, and I stumbled across the image that CERN released of a man holding a sign that says 'Bond1' and 'Mandela' below it, and this led me to learning about the Mandela Effect."

The admin also noted that his favorite example of the Mandela Effect is the Lion and the Lamb. "I was raised in the church, I am a Leo, and the Lion of Judah was a powerful statement in my house," Devon explained. "So when I looked and saw that today it says the 'wolf will lie with the lamb,' I was completely floored! I actually collected over 100 Bibles from churches, my parents' libraries, and even friends, and every single book said the 'wolf'. It was then that I started to realize things are not as they seem."

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples I recently told my my mom about the Mandela effect and shared a bunch of them for her to check out herself. The stepmother's line which is now "Magic Mirror on the wall..." She remembered vividly being "Mirror, mirror on the wall...". As a kid, she ran out of the theater when her parents took her to see the movie because she was so afraid of the evil stepmom. She had recurring nightmares afterwards even. She sent me this pic a few days later. It's taken from The Family Treasury of Children's Stories, Book One.

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples Who remembers the kids show Lamb Chops play along? It was in the 90s (I think)
At the end of the show there is a song called
"The song that NEVER ends"
It's one of those daft songs that gets stuck in some part of your brain that pops out from time to time 🤣
I was singing it last week as my daughter and I were talking about kids shows from when I was younger. She wanted to see it, so I went to YouTube and typed "the song that never ends"
As expected it shows up, only now the lyrics are
"this is the song that DOESN'T end"!!!! It doesn't even sound right!!

It was always "doesn't". Even as a kid with the show on in the background, I commented to my mom in the other room about how it was weird that the show used "doesn't" while we (collectively) used "never". Never just flows better, which is probably why we unconsciously changed it.

Devon also shared some background on the Mandela Effect. "The Mandela Effect was coined in 2009 by a woman named Fiona Broome. She noticed that a large amount of people remembered Nelson Mandela dying in prison in the 1980s, but not only did he not die, he was released from prison in 1990 and died in 2013," the admin explained.

"So how could so many have believed he died in prison?" Devon asks. "This is when the term came about to explain when a large majority of people remember something the same exact way even though in our timeline it did not happen."

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples Ok here's one that has always bothered me. I remember Thanksgiving being the third Thursday of November, not the fourth. It was that way until my early teens. Then it switched. But you look it up, it's supposedly always been the fourth Thursday. I was born in 1964 to give you a perspective on time frame. I remember because we always got out for the whole weekend and the dates were always like 19th, 20th, or 21st through whatever

Devon pointed out a few other classic examples of the Mandela Effect as well. "Millions remember 'Mirror mirror on the wall,' yet when you look at the movie, it is 'Magic mirror on the wall'. Millions remember the Monopoly man having a monocle; there are even movies that reference this, such as Ace Ventura, yet all the board games show that he never had a monocle," he shared.

"Millions remember the famous line 'Luke, I am your father.' T-shirts were made, posters, stickers, and catchphrases, and yet when you watch the movie, he says 'No, I am your father,'" Devon continued.

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples I've believed in Mandela effects for a while now, but I just found another one that again cemented it if I had any doubt. For context, since age might matter, I'm 34, but I owned all the Game Boy Pokémon as a child and teenager. In the game Pokémon, the rock-type character that looks like a snake made of large boulders was always called 'Onyx.' It was always Onyx like the color. I remember because of the text change with the letter 'y.' It goes below the lettering, and it was easy to remember. But now the name of the character is Onix. That was not the case in my childhood. I even used to draw the Pokémon and name them on paper

I got this effect because there was a point where I was into the show, and I found about Onix from the show faster than in the game, the show's subtitles say "Onyx".

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples I first became aware of and interested in the Mandela effect due to the Berenstein Bears. I read the books to my sons when they were young and I remember thinking when I read the name are these bears like Jewish bears hence the last name ending in "stein", or was it like stein in Frankenstein? Some years ago I stumbled onto this whole Mandeal effect thing. So for me it was always the Berenstein Bears, Fruit of the Loom did have a cornucopia, and Mandela did not die in prison.
But one thing that happened for me is something that no one else might not have experienced, or at least I haven't read an account about what I'm going to share. Now some of you older people might remember the early disco song "Rock Your Baby" which was by George Maccrae in 1974. It was a huge hit at the time. Now here is were it gets interesting to me. In 1986 I was at my mothers house eating lunch and I was reading the newspaper. There was an article about the death of George Maccrae and that he had died of cancer. I was very saddened upon reading this. His song Rock Your Baby was a song that I really loved and anytime I ever heard it it just made me feel good. So the years following I was always saddened to know that George was no long with us. Now before I go any further you need to know that I know quite a bit about music and 1970s music is my specialty. So I have always been the guy that when it comes to 1970s music that when there is a trivia contest etc I win. It was a few years back that all of a sudden I became aware that George Maccrae isn't dead. He didn't die ans he's alive and well and he was still singing. I was really shocked because I know damned well I had read his obituary article in the newspaper in 1986. I went years just knowing he was no longer alive and now all of a sudden he is alive. Well I'm glad he still is but I cannot explain this. If I had been in a triva contest about music I would have said he died in 1986 of cancer.

As far as why the Mandela Effect exists, Devon says he personally believes it comes from a societal drive for a shift. "The method that the shift happens is far less important than the reason it happened," he noted. "The Mandela Effect is the first crack in our reality to realize that things are not as we think they are."

"Even the most modern physicists today, after the 2022 Nobel Prize, now agree that physicality does not define reality," the admin added. "We are changing, and this is the first step to seeing that it is possible."

You're wrong. Houdini had a visitor in his dressing room who asked if was true he could withstand a punch in the stomach with no ill effects. Houdini agreed, then, with no warning for Houdini to prepare, punched him full force, leading to ruptured appendix and death. The escape scene was from the Tony Curtis movie and not accurate.

But as confusing as the Mandela Effect might sometimes be, Devon shared with Bored Panda that he believes it's a good thing. "And in the group, we try and focus on that side of things," he noted. "We share Mandela Effects, glitches, and strange things because we want to start discussing them without the blanket of fear."

"It could be CERN, time jumps, aliens, or spiritual; no one really knows. But no matter what it is, we can agree that it isn't hurting anyone; it's only expanding one's mind to see the impossible just might be possible," the admin says.

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples I was showing my son some videos of the Mandela effect & the Christmas song, I’ll be home for Christmas came up as one. I’ve always heard, I’ll be home for Christmas, you can Count on me. I was baffled when I heard it doesn’t say Count, it says, You can Plan on me. Fast forward to this morning & my daughter was playing a game on her pad & that song was part of the game. For the 1st time I heard, You can Plan on me. My question is…if I had not watched the video on the Mandela effect about a week ago, would I still have heard Count? Like the Laurel & Yanni thing? Do you guys remember that? Some people would hear Laurel, while others heard Yanni. I think it was Yanni, it could hv been something similar ijust can’t recall it tho. What do you all think? Im curious about this. Clear as day the song said Plan. 🤯 I even asked my 6 year old & she said, mom, I thought the song said you can count on me. So baffled

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples I'm planning my kids birthday party and a friend told me joking to not to go wild and put ipads in the party favors... we laughed because I knew he was referring to an episode from Big little lies that we have watched a few years ago. I re watched the whole 2 seasons again and now I didn't see that scene at all! I remember it was on S2 in Amabella's birthday party since Renata was trying to not to look poor after their bankrupcy...... I totally remember that Bonnie looks at the party bag and tells her husband.. oh wow there is an ipad in there. Do any of you remember that scene? It may have been cut or something but why that specific scene? I have googled it and look for it in youtube but nothing! Like it never happened!

Apple has a contractual thing with movies/ tv programs. only the good guys have an I phone or for good reason are their products ever shown. So if you're watching a movie and you can't figure out the bad guys, he or she is the one with an android.

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples I'm in my 40's, when I was a little girl I remember seeing a coca cola commercial with the jingle, "where ever there's a present, there's always a bow, where ever there's Santa, there's always ho ho ho, where ever there's a choir there's always a song, when ever the holidays come along, there's always coca cola, fa la la la la always coca cola" it has Santa drinking a coke out of a glass bottle. When I ask anyone if they remember this commercial and jingle they look at me crazy and say no. Please tell me that someone, anyone else remembers this. I can not find it online any where

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples I was researching the back story behind 'Count Dracula', maybe 25 years ago or so. I just casually mentioned it to my Mum when she asked me who 'Vlad the Impaler' was. I was shocked, because everyone I knew (including my Mum) knew that Dracula was based on Vlad the 3rd Tepes 'Dracula' of Romania. But when I tried to look up Vlad the Impaler - I couldn't find any reference to him in any of our books! So - frustrated and confused - I left it at that. It gets weirder - the next day I looked him up I found loads of references and history about him and how he was the inspiration for count Dracula etc - and when I showed my Mum, she was like "Yeah, so what?" And I was like - "But yesterday you said you had never heard of him!"

This Group Is Dedicated To Discussing The Mandela Effect, Here Are 30 Of Their Best Examples Back in 1998 I was in eight grade. I remember walking into the library and all the teachers were crying bc a space shuttle that had just launched from cape canevral exploded killing all astronauts on board.
