Mandela effect refers to the situation in which the public's collective memory of history is inconsistent with historical facts. This effect is a psychological effect . The source of its name is because: When the news of South African President Mandela's death in 2013 was released, people around the world actually felt that their memory of Mandela was wrong. Many people's memories of Mandela had died in prison in the 1980s, and even people from different places said that they had watched movies commemorating Mandela. However, real historical facts show that such a movie has never been filmed or released...
Or, I believe many people have also had such experiences. You and your friends have the same memory of something that happened, but they found that they could not find any records and evidence of this matter, or they found that the real history was not like this! This situation is also a manifestation of the "Mandela effect". Some scholars believe that the Mandela effect involves parallel universe , and under certain specific conditions, different universes and space-time overlap or travel, causing "error" to the collective memory of some people, and the memory is incompatible with reality. But there are many opponents who believe this does not exist.
So, what are the Mandela effect events that are generally recognized by the public? Let’s take a closer look at what makes you suspicious and think about it carefully.
1.56 ethnic groups VS 56 constellations?
The famous song "Love Me China" is a popular patriotic song. The familiar melody penetrates into everyone's mind. Can you sing it immediately when you hear the title of the song? But, please think about the first sentence at the beginning. In your memory, is it: "fifty-six ethnic groups" or "fifty-six zodiac signs"?
The correct answer is, 56 constellations
If your memory is "fifty-six ethnic groups", don't panic, because some netizens once initiated a vote online, and 80% of netizens thought it was "ethnic". However, some netizens dug out the old version of CDs and party videos, but found that they were indeed singing "fifty-six constellations".
2. Statue of the contemplator, holding the forehead VS holding the chin? Among the sculptures of
Rodan , the most well-known one is "Menter ". It was carved in 1880 and was publicly displayed in 1902. Later, Rodan made many replicas and distributed them all over the world. I believe everyone has seen real objects or photos. So the question is, what is the posture of the real "Menter" in your memory? Should I support my forehead or my chin?
The correct answer is: hold your chin with your hand
The memory of the wrong posture of the contemplator has actually appeared long ago. American playwright Bernard Shaw , football athlete Tim Teebo and others have placed the wrong position on the imitation of the contemplator. It can be seen that the wrong memory of the contemplator is no longer a recent thing .
3. Journey to the West, did you put the oil pan in the Che Chi Guo fight?
86 version of Journey to the West is a childhood memory of many people. In the episode of Che Chiguo, Sun Wukong fought with three monsters, Lu Li Daxian, Lu Li Daxian , and Yang Li Daxian . Many people clearly remember that when fighting with Yang Li Daxian, there was a plot of putting a pan in the oil pan, and it was also fried into bones by hot oil. However, this plot cannot be found in all replays. Some people think that it may be because the plot is too cruel, so they subsequently deleted and modified, but the real situation is that there was never a pan in the 86 version of Journey to the West. This was also confirmed and refuted by the crew's photographer. Some people analyzed that this may be based on the plot of the 1986 Journey to the West TV series, plus the plot of the 1999 Journey to the West cartoon, which creates a messy memory by people's brains, but it is also difficult to understand that so many people have the same messy memory.
In addition, there are many other famous Mandela effect events, such as burning the Old Summer Palace html; Disney's Mickey Mouse classic image, in many people's impression, should be wearing red overalls , but the fact is wearing red shorts; Pikachu in "Pokemon" is black or yellow in the tail ending? Many people remember that there is an iconic black at the end of Pikachu, but the fact is that Pikachu's end is all yellow; it was once the Dingdang cat, which was a childhood memory of many post-80s and post-90s. The second word "dang" is next to the word "mouth"? Many people remember that there is a word next to the word "口", but in the dictionary, the word "口" next to the word "口" cannot be typed on the computer, and this word seems to have suddenly "disappeared".
As mentioned earlier, some people use the theoretical explanation of "parallel universe", but there is no sufficient reason to convince people. In this regard, we can only say that there are still many mysteries in the world we live in that we have not yet seen, and we need our continuous development and exploration, just like the "quantum entanglement" proved by this year's Nobel Prize in Physics. Perhaps in the near future, we can explain the truth about the Mandela effect!
