Have you ever wondered if the Mandela Effect only impacts English-speaking countries? 🌐 Today we’re going to explore some lesser-known Mandela Effects from around the world, from various cultures and languages beyond the USA.
These international Mandela Effects show us that this mysterious phenomenon is experienced worldwide, and can be traced back to the pre-internet era in the 80s and 90s.
🔍 We’ll explore these intriguing false memories:
– The Danish TV series Matador and the mysterious balcony scene that never existed, with similarities to the famous ‘Dolly had braces’ Mandela Effect from Moonraker
– A curious widespread false memory in Brazil surrounding an episode of Dragon Ball Z on 9/11
– The puzzling memory of the Bologna Station clock in Italy
– Turkey’s “Swearing Child in Hugo” incident that’s sparked a number of conspiracy theories
– The potato chip packaging debate in the UK regarding Walkers crisps, where many remember that salt and vinegar and cheese and onion flavours changed colours – though the switch never happened
– A false memory of a notorious incident where the singer Lucero farted on live television in Mexico, on the show Siempre en Domingo
– An international twist on the classic line from Disney’s Snow White, ‘Mirror mirror on the wall…”
We’ll also revisit the original Mandela Effect, where people misremember Nelson Mandela dying in prison in the 1980s.
Many of these memories are so widespread that it’s difficult to explain within our current understanding of reality. Are we looking at some sort of glitch in the matrix, a cover up, or simply memory error?
