well haven’t done one YET, but I am going to do one so we can close this chapter Okay for all you people who think I did a genie movie. The idea reached peak popularity until Sinbad himself tweeted about the phenomenon saying, “Have you noticed no one my age has seen this so called Sinbad Genie movie, only you people who were kids in the 90’s. Hundreds of people around the country (and maybe the world) thought that Sinbad played a genie in a movie in the ‘90s similar to Shaq in Kazaam. Sorry to those who swear it existed, but the following video offers more evidence that Jiffy never happened.Īround the same time as The Berenstain Bears phenomenon, everyone started talking about the false memory of Sinbad playing a genie in a ’90s movie called Shazaam. While we’re not so certain we live in a parallel universe and are able to switch back and forth, we were 100 percent shocked to realize the lovable bears were, in fact, the “Berenstain Bears” and not Berenstein they were named after the writers Stan and Judy Berenstain. How you spell “The Berenstain Bears” could be proof of parallel universes /L7KC6l9itL Noelle Devoe wrote for Seventeen magazine about the Mandela Effect, going deeper into what Broome thinks about these strange occurrences: “The theory states that shared false memories are in fact glimpses into parallel worlds with different timelines.” ![]() Your favorite childhood bear family: do you recall their name? This phenomenon gained nationwide attention a couple years ago. Proof can be seen around the 0:34 mark: Berenstein or Berenstain Bears?

Psychologists call it confabulation: “Confabulation is an unconscious process of creating a narrative that the narrator believes is true but that is demonstrably false.” Emery explains how the term became coined The Mandela Effect: It’s like when you’re telling a story and you explain how you and your friends arrived at the game in the third inning, and you fully believe that, until your friend tells you you’re wrong and you guys arrived on time.įor some reason, our brains tend to fill in gaps of time that we forgot and make us believe that what we say is true. Have you ever remembered something, and were so positive of this memory, only to one day find out it wasn’t true and that memory never happened?
