19 Examples Of The Mandela Effect That Will Have You Questioning Everything

I would not call these examples of the Mandela Effect. A false memory, or just a random guess, is not the Mandela Effect. They don't rise to the level of any mass Mandela Effect: "The Mandela Effect is a type of false memory that occurs when many different people incorrectly remember the same thing. It refers to a widespread false memory that Nelson Mandela died in prison in the 1980s."

This is a load of shi*.

I couldn't tell what I was supposed to look at in the Beatles photo. The sky was never a Mandela effect. Just something I never paid attention to. Also, anyone else notice the Tesla logo looks like an IUD? Which doesn't surprise me as some car brands have logos having to do with female nether regions.

Most of these are just observation and general knowledge and have pig-all to do with the "Mandela effect"

19/19, but a lot of lucky guesses.

I'm old enough and uninfluenced enough to not see the vast majority of "Mandela effects", but the one that always gets me and gives me pause, is the "Black Tom Explosion". I'm a self proclaimed history buff and particularly the world wars, yet I have never heard this one.

TBH, I'm skeptical about this supposed effect existing at all. Where is the proof that any significant number of people thought Mandela died in prison in the 80's? I certainly never thought this; I clearly remember his being released. Where is the study? Who did the study, if there was one? What was the methodology? Has it ever been independently duplicated? If this effect means anything at all, I think it's actually when someone doesn't remember how an event actually happened or what a logo actually looked like, they decide that they know what it must have been, and they're too stubborn to admit they were wrong.
