Nelson Mandela´s Death
The first Mandela Effect on our list is the one from which the phenomenon is named. Nelson Mandela, a prominent South African anti-apartheid revolutionary and President (from 1994 to 1999), died on 5 December 2013 (aged 95) at his home in Houghton. However, many people in different countries clearly remember Mandela dying in prison in the 1980s. Some of them even claim they remember his funeral being broadcasted on TV.
