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."

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."

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

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.

Oh while he was punched in the stomach and he died from a ruptured appendix a week or so later it's not believed to have been the actual cause. He was already ill (stomach pain) when he was punched. So he already had appendicitis. He then refused to get treatment for days.

There were a lot of rumors and hearsay about how Houdini died. Large parts of the country didn't have things like electricity or phone lines yet so people just took what they heard to heart especially if it sounded plausible.

After several hammerhead blows Houdini ask Jocelyn to stop. Houdini then went on to keep performing that. night. He was in pain for the next two nights. Went to the doctor.

And during my free time, I can usually be seen strolling through a park, playing tennis or baking something tasty.

I'm a Visual Editor at Bored Panda since 2017. I've searched through a multitude of images to create over 2000 diverse posts on a wide range of topics. I love memes, funny, and cute stuff, but I'm also into social issues topics. Despite my background in communication, my heart belongs to visual media, especially photography. When I'm not at my desk, you're likely to find me in the streets with my camera, checking out cool exhibitions, watching a movie at the cinema or just chilling with a coffee in a cozy place

So hopefully today we have learned that memory is fallible, and different editions of books, movies, songs, maps and medical illustrations may vary.

No one mentioned the fruit of the loom logo?? That one blew my damn mind. There was never a cornucopia on the label. Never. What the f**k? Some more info: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fruit-of-the-loom-cornucopia/

So I heard of this one, and apparently some people claim the Mandela effect surrounding this is a lie, and there was a cornucopia at some point. There are some Reddit forums where people show clothes they have with the cornucopia on them, but they might also be fake

What a joke. There is no "Mandela Effect". Some journalist invented it to mess with people's heads.

The only thing those examples show is how faulty our memories can be and how easily our brains can be tricked. btw: Did you know there are morons out there who think that in those cases the reality has been changed by some higher powers instead of people just misremembering stuff from the past? Yep...no Conspiracy theory is too stupid for anyone not to believe

The only Mandela Effect thing that will forever bother me is the fact that the movie Shazaam, starring Sinbad as a genie, does not exist.

I didn't even know there was a thing called the Mandela Effect until that one XFiles episode. Turns out the guy was just looney.... but was he, though?🤔🤷‍♀️

Some of this s**t I think We as a whole got wrong and the people responsible are going back and rewriting history and then gaslighting us into thinking we are the crazy ones. CAuse dude they taught us in school that Mandela f*****g died in the eighties, then out of nowhere one day it's "Mandela has been released from prison" and everyone I know was like woah wait he was dead, and the news was the only ones saying "Yes Mandela imprisoned has finally been released" I think we just got s**t wrong and don't want to own up to it. Just like with Pluto.

I don't know if this is on anyone's list but it must be a Madea effect ancient Rome I remember in school learning about Julius Caesar was the first emperor of Rome and the month of July was named after him but now he's not listed as a emperor 🤔 wtf

The past doesn't actually exist. It's a matter of probability, same as the future. Quantum mechanics suggests that "what happened" can actually change, after the fact. Wave function collapse does not appear to adhere to our notions of cause and effect. One wonders if we sometimes experience that without realizing it on a conscious level.

So maybe the ones we remember in error actually were that way, but enough people believed differently and it changed reality...and the Fruit of the Loom cornucopia disappeared, along with the Monopoly man's monocle, the genie movie starring Sinbad, etc.

I find it odd their are people so sure of their own correctness that even reality can't change their minds.

The weirdest one for me is the text on car mirrors. I always thought it was "objects in mirror may be closer than they appear", but it's actually "objects in mirror are closer than they appear". Other people also remember it being "may be" and it's just so strangely specific

I don't believe in the Mandela Effect but I do have a faulty memory that could be attributed to it if I did. I swear I remember a Dennis the Menace comic w/ Mr. Wilson telling Dennis that Mrs. Wilson had died. There was a faint shadow in the background indicating her presence was still around.
