Ever got caught recalling something that ended up being false, but you swore something was a thing, especially since everyone else seemed to validate this supposedly false memory?

Yep, you got duped by what is called the Mandela effect. It’s when a bunch of people believe something to be true, when it’s not.

One of the most famous ones, especially in the US, was The Berenstain Bears one, where people were sure it was Berenstein and not Berenstain. But there are many more of them.

Speaking of many more, Redditors have recently been listing the ones that messed with their minds the most. The thread managed to get almost 13,000 upvotes with a handful of Reddit awards, and generate over 8,400 comments.

We invite you to check out the best responses in a curated list below, and while you’re at it, upvote the ones that messed with your mind too, and leave a comment with some effects that you know.

I don’t know if it counts, but I had a favorite orange t-shirt and I haven’t seen it in years. Asked my mom if she knows anything about it and described the drawings on it. She went “You mean the turquoise one? It’s in x drawer” I fought her a while about it and finally went to check the said drawer and there it was, my favorite “orange” shirt in all its turquoise glory

Fruit of the Loom cornucopia for sure. It’s was there. I remember distinctly, and no other brand has that specific cornucopia. I could probably even draw it from memory if I needed to to

The one that always gets me is particular to my friends and I from when we were kids. There was a creek that ran under the street in the neighborhood and we would sometimes hang out in the banks on either side of the road. There was this big rock that we would sit on all the time. Except one day we were walking by and it wasn’t a rock. It was a small tree. Fully rooted in and established and the rock was no where to be seen. Mind you, it was an extremely heavy boulder. We passed that spot all the time and all of us remember that rock. We call it the shapeshifting rock.

Beats by Dr. Dre. I’m almost positive that it was “Beats by Dre.” But I went and found my old headphones and sure enough it says “Dr.” Its even weirder because it looks so wrong and crowded on the headband.

My mom doesn’t have the best memory. I called her when I found out about this one and go, “Do you remember that movie when sinbad was a genie?” Without missing a beat she goes, “Yeah Shazam, right? You guys watched that all the time.” I said “you’re not confusing it with kazaam with shaq right?” She says “No you guys didn’t like that one as much you liked the sinbad one better.” She was mind blown that it doesn’t exist. I think she even looked through our vhs collection cause she’s was like we definitely have that movie but she never found it. Shame.
