This quiz is about the Mandela effect. The actual answers according to google are Berenstain Bears, Sex and the City, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "No, I am your father!", 6 manned flights landed on the moon and 3 manned flights orbited it for a total of 9, Magic Mirror, Interview with the Vampire, "If you build it he will come," he didn't die in prison, and O- (if you google any of those topics with mandela effect you'll get web links, you can also visit (http://removingtheshackles.blogspot.com/2015/08/what-time-is-it-mr-wolf.html) for a great discussion about it. After seeing the answers what do you think is going on?

People simply mis-remember things?

People are moving in and out of timelines/multiverses/parallel universes

The whole thing is a complicated government psyop

This is a meaningless idiotic experiment

This is a conspiracy of some sort or another

other

CERN is altering things for everyone

Something or someone caused a glitch in the Matrix

Society collectively misheard like a bad game of telephone

If you said other can you please explain?

When were you first exposed to the many ongoing Mandela effects in question and started paying attention to them?

Right now because of this quiz (September 2015 or later)

I've been aware since sometime in or around July 2015

I've been aware since between 2012 and 2015

I've been aware before 2012

If you mentioned other to any of the previous questions can you share how or why you knew?

Over 25,000 people have responded here are some data about their answers? 82% remember it as Berestein Bears, 56% remember it as Sex in the City, 74% remember it as "Luke, I am your father," only 12% of people knew the right number of NASA missions, 88% thought it was Mirror Mirror, 77% thought it was Interview with a Vampire, 86% thought it was "If you build it they will come," and 47% thought it was O+. Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Branch Davidians were included as controls and 95% of people got Buffy right and 85% got Branch Davidians right (for those that were extremely confident it was closer to 95%) (there was no controversy surrounding those two questions). Now that you have seen data what do you think is the root cause of the Mandela Effect? (oddly enough only 22% of this survey thought Mandela died in prison)

People's memory sucks

People are moving in and out of timelines/multiverses/parallel universes

The whole thing is a complicated government psyop

This is a meaningless idiotic experiment

This is a conspiracy of some sort or another

Society collectively misheard like a bad game of telephone

CERN is altering things for everyone

Other

Something or someone caused a glitch in the matrix

If other what is the root cause?

Where are you from?

How old are you?

I'm trying to figure out if there are things about people that tend to influence how they interpret the Mandela Effect. Is there anything about you that you'd like to share that feels like it's having a heavy influence on how you interpret the data?

For as many questions as you can remember a distinct conversation about one of these effects can you please share the details of that conversation? When did it take place? Who was it between (spouse, friend, significant other, family, etc.)? What was said or what happened that makes it stand out?
