Just came across this. Maybe the most out there conspiracy theory I've read. The name refers to the fact that a substantial number of people recall Nelson Mandela having died in prison in the 1980s. I don't personally recall this timeline, and the fact that he died in 2013 seems to mesh with my memories.
But there are others.
Famous line from the Star Wars franchise: "____, I am your father."
If you guessed "Luke", you're like most of us. Apparently the actual line is "No, I am your father". This has blown minds all over the world, my own among them. Now, an easy explanation is that what people are remembering was pop culture's take on the iconic line, whereby it was changed for context. Personally I only saw that original scene maybe three times, back when I was a kid, so it's easy to believe I like most people misremembered.
But of course there are others. The one that really gets me is the title of a famous children's books series about a family of bears.
I like many people recall the title as The Berenstein Bears, named after the couple who wrote it. But apparently it has always been The Berenstain Bears. I recall Berenstein, as does everyone I've asked.
Then there's the color chatreuse, which I recall being sort of a pink-purple color. In reality it's a yellow-green.
Others: the film "Interview with the vampire" was apparently "Interview with a vampire", and "Sex and the City" was "Sex in the City" (these two, I'm with the official story, and have no memory of them being different)
Anyway the internet says this is all the result of some sort of time travel experiment, someone is tinkering with the fabric of reality.
What say all of you?
