Origins of the Mandela Effect
The Mandela Effect is a phenomenon that occurs when a person believes that
their distorted memories are, in fact, accurate recollections. They can
clearly remember events that happened differently or events that never
occurred at all. The bottom line is that the Mandela effect does not
involve lying or deception.
The term "Mandela Effect" was first coined in 2009 by Fiona Broome when
she was at a conference talking with other people about how she remembered
the tragedy of former South African president Nelson Mandela's death in a
South African prison in the 1980s.
However, Nelson Madela did not die in the 1980s in a prison - he passed
away in 2013. As Broome began to talk to other people about her memories,
she learned that she was not alone. Others remembered seeing news coverage
of his death as well as a speech by his widow.
Broome was shocked that such a large mass of people could remember the
same identical event in such detail when it never happened. Encouraged by
her book publisher, she began her website to discuss what she called the
Mandela Effect and other incidents like it.
