This is such clickbait, nothing on ur list is a "Mandela effect", this is so clickbait that I could even predict what you were gonna claim was a "Mendal effect" when u begin to speak of an episode.
I always thought the snapshot of the Christmas Party was Spongebob crying which Squidward took. Yeah, seeing my picture of me taken with me crying like a little bitch would be embarrassing to say the least.
the christmas photo wasn't shown during the episode, but an embarrassing photo of spongebob at a christmas party was indeed shown during one of those "merry Nickmas" promos with all the nicktoons celebrating christmas together
@@trystonkincannon8320 yeah i was curious about the end of that episode, I thought that the episode got cut in my country so I tried to find it on the internet. But I still remember it vividly, I hope it's not something my brain made up.
the Santa thing never happened in the episode but there was a embarrassing Santa image of him at a party during a commercial break ad for a SpongeBob Christmas marathon
As someone who watched Spongebob rather obsessively throughout my childhood and early adulthood, I've never heard of any of these mandela effects. Not a single one.
the people that relate to this video are young and most likely saw fan edits on YT and thought it was a clip from a real episode when they were younger. No Mandela effect, but it shows you how much shit is on the internet now and it's messing with the youth big time imo. this dude barley knows his SpongeBob history let alone actual history.
i think i remember seeing an exact picture but couldn’t remember anything too embarrassing just him making that damn embarrassed face and a bunch of christmas lights 😂 and ive always just thought it was cuz i had the dvds back in the day or something or have seen it somewhere but i also dont know lmao because i know it didn’t happen i just remember it somehow (edit: im not even sure if i remember him with the embarrassed face just the lights particularly also could not remember a santa outfit either)
I believe y’all mean the picture which squidward makes when Christmas actually was but Santa clause didn’t arrive and he laughed him off, while SpongeBob has really big teary eyes 🥹
In the german version, Spongebob actually replies with "actually, it's coral blue number *whack on the head* three...", so the Mandela effect could be language specific
i remember even in the actual airing spongebob saying fo- *whack* -ee sounded like the start of four and end of three to me, thats what i remember specifically
@@ryanweaver130 yeah that's weird, when my friend showed me Jimmy Page's performance when I was in high school, I said that the guitar looked like what SpongeBob played in the movie, I said that because I didn't really follow music back in the day.
I always remembered Krabs just saying “corral blue lipstick” and SpongeBob replies, “Actually, it’s corral blue number 42.” So weird. And I vividly remember SpongeBob with a white V shaped guitar at the end of the SpongeBob movie
I think the one with the embarassing christmas photo is because many confused it with another episode, the christmas special ("Christmas Who?") where Spongebob starts crying after Santa doesn't come, and Squidward takes a photo of him while he is standing next to the christmas tree coral, staring with huge crying eyes into the camera. Some might have remembered this photo as the embarassing christmas party photo. And the guitar one might also be because of the white pointy boots Spongebob is wearing, which would stylistically fit a white v-shaped guitar people were remembering.
The guitar one may be caused by the Spongebob movie tie-in game in wich Spongebob use a v shape guitar as a power up and once you upgrade it it changes into the peanut guitar
Also the episode where SpongeBob was listing the ingredients when he was about to drop thr Kraby Patty on Plankton's machinr (SpongeBob was being mind controlled by Plankton)
No it wasn’t. Ur wrong. That has never been claimed by the creators. And it never even said that in the episode. Be quiet. It’s a normal Christmas picture in that episode. Quit lying. U hear shit wrong and just go with it. Listen better next time. Cuz Ik exactly what ur talking about. And that has never been correlated ever by anyone. And it’s not even an embarrassing picture. What r u talking about?
And also that makes no sense to lie and say that is the actual picture. When the picture corresponds with the ripped pants episode. Which SpongeBob was doing intentionally to the whole goolagoon for a laugh. That makes absolutely no sense that the “embarrassing photo” is something he was doing for fun
@@csorighthere8414 Then how can you literally watch the bumper where the bumper’s narrator literally refers to a picture of Spongebob taken at a Christmas party as embarrassing whilst showing it on screen?
@@csorighthere8414 Also, given that in the short, Spongebob isn’t a frycook yet, it’s safe to say it is set in the past. And also Spongebob didn’t rip his pants “for fun” in Ripped Pants
I think the reason why people (including myself) misremember the Pickles one is because they get it confused with the scene from Bubble Buddy where Spongebob tries get the other fish to show mercy instead of popping Bubble Buddy by convincing them to reflect on things they love. All of the fish start to mention the material things they're attached to, so at least for me, that's where I think the confusion likely came from.
It made me think of the time that Squidward was burning everything. Like the guy that said "he burnt my shake". Might have even been the same episode, I'm not sure.
Agreed... this is just people who never really paid attention with poor memory honestly. I have never heard of any of these or thought of any of these.
@@paris6817 The thing is, it's not "people with poor memory", but rather people who are unwilling to accept that memory is reconstructive instead of keeping a verbatim record. I know, it's weird if you encounter the idea for the first time, but hiding from it doesn't help matters...
The Mandela effect is often people remembering things a certain way but it actually isn’t. But most of the time it actually did exist, but brands tend to change their logos and things, so they aren’t wrong technically
why do people think that everything they saw as kids is the truth and not that they can’t remember tv shows because they were stupid kids and not some mandela effect
As someone who watched SpongeBob all summer growing up, i remember all of these perfectly😭 maybe that’s a bad thing, but while watching this video I kept thinking “that never happened”💀
In German he finishes the sentence and reveals it is Coral Blue No. 3. And for the Bubble Bass scene, it is pretty similar to another scene in the episode Bubble Buddy, where a few fish list things very close to their heart.
I think the Mandela Effect with the secret formula is just a mix up between another episode where Plankton and his relatives start to read out a fake recipe and the final ingredient was plankton
Before the secret sauce was conceptualized, Spongebob literally says the entire recipe in the Bubble Bass pickle episode. "I can't put a patty on a bun with lettuce, cheese, onions, tomatoes, ketchup, mustard, pickles and top bun together in that order!" Granted he doesn't say what kind of patty and maybe seasoning on the patty, but everything else is spelled out like it's a normal burger.
This is so fascinating to me because like half of these are "No, I definitely 100% remember that exact thing happening" and the other half are "What? No, it's always been like that." What messes me up the most is Coral Blue #5 because- that is such a weirdly specific number for so many people to recall only for it to have never been stated. How can so many people collectively remember something that specifically even though it never happened? And on top of that, if it was just misremembering and people believing said misconception, shouldn't that apply to all instances of the effect, and not only a select few?
"i never paid much attention" is a perfect example of why the Mandela effect, well, affects people. All they know is vague memories because they never paid attention. I've had cases where since i paid attention, i knew it wasn't one way or another.
Most of these "memories" are often caused by people forcing their brains to remember what actually happened, and since the only information they have are the claims of other people, that's the only thing their brains come up with.
Same. There was really only one instance here where I was like “wait that didn’t happen??” and it was Pickles. I could’ve sworn the scene had a couple more examples than just “car keys.”
My Mandela memory is I remembered Patrick actually answering “I’d get another ice cream.” in the Hall Monitor episode before it cuts to them coming out of the shop again.
5:22 For the shoelaces, the Mandela Effect never occurred to me since I like drawing SpongeBob a lot when I was younger. The look of his shiny black shoes had already been burned to my mind that I am very certain the shoelaces were never present and it was only for the episode's sake. 6:51 For the lipstick, I was also affected as I do remember SpongeBob finishing it, but he says "Coral Blue Number 52". Although, I speculate that I was mixed with the "62 cents" from "Born Again Krabs" because of the emphasis the Dutchman put on saying "62" seemingly fits well with how SpongeBob talks, at least for my young mind, and misremembered the voice as SpongeBob's. 9:33 The gag of cutting the narrator off when saying the Formula was burned into my memory because I saw it in TV first, so I laughed very loudly when it cuts immediately to the episode's special credits sequence. When I was young, I've always lamented that the DVD version didn't include the credits, so the cut-off felt hollow. 10:16 Ironically, I wasn't affected becaus, back then, I felt like they should've added more people complaining since having few people complaining felt like his defeat is a bit lackluster. 12:03 Ngl, I loved Atlantis Squarepantis, so I kinda memorized the entire special and its songs since I've watched it so many times, so nothing really felt off for me.
Yeah, I think many people forget that kinds watching TV shows together, they like embellish it as they go, add their own commentary, and then afterwards, they retell and act it out again and again, until it has changed quite a bit. And of course these memories kinda stick in the head the same way as the actual episode.
Never watched Star Wars, but hearing you correct that practically biblical reference at the end made me question my entire existence. My life is a lie lol.
About the shoelaces - it's probably implied that they're always there but not actually drawn to save resources and they're so tiny that it wouldn't really look good in frame, so they're only shown up close or in the episode where it's the main plot point, like many other times when there is a close up on something in Spongebob you see a hyper realistic painting of that
For the Christmas Party photo, I think I know why so many people remember it being shown. There’s a book (I don’t know the name) but there’s a section called Candid Camera where SpongeBob describes the events and there’s a photo of him in his underwear at a party. The secret box is even mentioned.
The secret box photograph was 100% shown but not during the episode. It was featured in a short pre-show segment that Nickelodeon would run during the Christmas season featuring various Nicktoon characters. I remember the segment depicted a Christmas party with Timmy Turner, Hey Arnold, and some other characters. And during the segment the embarrassing photo of Spongebob on a Polaroid is briefly shown.
The mandela effect really falls apart when you remember that you're stupid and misremember things - and if you can - then millions of others can as well, then just fuel their own confirmation bias.
@@gargaduk you misunderstand, I agree with you. When I learned the term Mandela effect, the person that described it to me said that was basically the definition. So learning after the fact that that's not the definition fucked me up!
I always imagined that "Embarrassing photo of Spongebob at the Christmas party" was the one taken by squidward in the episode "Santa Who?" though I recall it not being shown in the secret box episode
I remember that V shaped guitar and the secret formula being cut off abruptly vividly. Like I remember the episode ending as soon as the narrator said “and-“
The pickles one really got me, because I'm like, I've watched this episode so many times as a child, there's absolutely no way there was anything more said
During a holiday commercial bumper in the early 2000's, we see "embarrassing photos" of various nicktoons characters at the nicktoons Christmas party, and there's one of Spongebob. That's where your memory comes from :)
The biggest one for me out of all of these is definitely SpongeBob's guitar. I remember the V-shaped guitar so vividly, I was stunned when I first learned it was a peanut guitar! I know it's SpongeBob, but the peanut guitar makes the whole thing look weird and, well.. goofy. It was supposed to be an awesome, epic moment, and the V-shaped rocker guitar added to that. As for the Krusty Krab Training Video, I don't remember the recipe ever being revealed, but it does end MUCH more abruptly than I remembered. Way back when I first watched it, I remember it was like "The Krabby Patty Secret Foruma is...!" and then it ended. But the "is" is cut off so abruptly now, it almost sounds like an editing error. It's a minor change, but it's jarring to hear. The other effects in the video, I'm not sure about. I feel like they could be either or. But the guitar and the "is" cutoff... something's up with that.
The mandala effect is interesting, because the conclusions that people always imagine always seem to be better versions of what actually happens. Or ones that makes more sense in context. A wonderful example is the thinker statue, who people imagine to have his chin resting on a closed fist, when in reality, his hand is slumped against his face, in a very illogical manner. A popular theory is the human brain is so used to filling in the gaps of our memories, that it will correct details that doesn't seem to fit conventional wisdom. It therefore conjures fake memories that make more sense to the individual. Since human brains function similarly, this can happen on a large scale. "Do you remember SpongeBob holding a peanut shaped guitar? That's much too silly to be true, he was holding a V shaped guitar like the one in this other episode you saw"
Well the thinker statue looks like it's resting on a fist, depending on the angle you look at it from. Considering the fact that that angle looks the best, it's no surprise, that this is what people remember.
I think the secret box was the same anticipation effect as the Krusty Krab Training Video situation. However, I do also think there may be some mix-up with the training video and some other instances in which ingredients have been listed (Plankton's Army, The Great Patty Caper). The expectation plus the memories of recipes being listed elsewhere could've easily merged into the assumption that they were listed in that episode.
@@MasterOfViewership Yes, I remember, but that's not the point. The point is that ingredients were listed, and thus there's still an instance to be mixed up. Fake or not, there was a recipe, and so the memory of a recipe would still exist to get confused.
For the one in Atlantis squarepantis I feel like the reason people remember krabs laughing after saying "me true color was green" is because it sorta rhymes with the lyrics from the episode selling out. Where mr krabs says "nothing on earth like the feeling of greed" and then laughed
For the 'coral blue' scene. In many other languages he actually finishes his sentence. The English version is one of the view where gets hit before finishing his sentence.
@@MasterOfViewership Yeah, iirc, in German he of course get's also hit but then he still says "three" (or "drei" in German) in a kind of sad and dizzy tone of voice.
The pickles one could be mixed up with Bubble Buddy, with the part where SpongeBob asks the other fish if they had friends, leading them to cry about their friends, like a piece of meat, and a car muffler, as a kid I always mistook the two scenes with that
I thought of the one episode where people have burnt food (and other) items and the shot goes around the Krusty Krab panning to people listing off what was burnt "he burnt my food, he burnt my shake, he burnt my wallet... etc"
It's very interesting how almost every mandela effect that was talked about in this video, I vividly remember. The guitar one was a big shock to me when I heard about it a few months back. I watched a TH-cam video that asked "what do you remember SpongeBob's guitar looking like from the movie?" and without hesitation, I immediately remembered the white, double neck, V shape guitar. Prior to this video, I hadn't seen that scene of the SpongeBob movie in many years, so how I very vividly remembered the white, double neck, V shape guitar shocked me.
You guys remember the final scene in the 1st SpongeBob Movie before Ocean Man? Well I had a Mandela Effect where SpongeBob said “I was gonna tell you that your shoe is untied” instead of “I was gonna tell you that your fly is down”
In 8:12 im not very sure but i think its a mixup with the episode where plankton gets his cousins, because in one of the scenes plankton reads off some of the ingredients before it shows Plankton as the "real" main ingredient.
Patrick showing the picture of Spongebob, which was a picture of Spongebob ripping his pants, was in Commercial Bumpers where all the Nicktoons came over to Spongebobs House for a party. I think theyre all lost now.
What's crazy to me is that when I was a kid (like 7 years old) I vividly remembered that in the Krusty Krab training video episode the narrator starts listing ingredients, but then rewatching it many times over through the next few years I always wondered where that scene went and was just like "I guess they must have removed it" as to keep the formula safe (very silly yes but I was a child at the time lol) so the fact it never existed and people remembering the exact same thing I did is kinda mindblowing to me
I remember it literally the exact way you described it. What might have happened is the cut was slightly later and less abrupt. Idk I might be trippin. But I swear something definitely happened to that episode.
Its really a testament to how long this show has been going on and how memorable it is, that a lot of these can be explained by similar scenarios, scenes, and jokes in different episodes. The ingredients list is likely misremembered due to it being read out in "Plankton's Army." The scene in "Pickles" is so similar to the fuzzy dice, meat, and muffler scene in "Bubble Buddy" Or even some people remembering the Christmas Party photo as the photo Squidward took in "Christmas Who?"
@@BigForAHedgehogi think there was also another episode where they did this too and one of the fish said "he ate my pants" or something like that and we see his ass bitten. I forget what episode but this gag is done several times that it might have caused people to misremember.
9:21 that one was probably mixed up with the episode mentioned after this one where the krabby patty recipe is actually revealed using the same image of the burger in front of that blue background
Interestingly enough, in the comic book adaptation of "Clams" released exclusively in the U.K. and Ireland, SpongeBob actually DOES finish his sentence, but what he says is "Actually, it's Coral Blue No. 1." I don't know where everyone got "No. 5" from.
I remember 99% of these episodes very vividly and none of the Mandela effects ever happened. What more than likely happened was somebody remembered something wrong and posted it and everyone due to the power of suggestion said “oh yeah I remember that happening that way too” and then the very fuzzy memory of all of the episodes being to warp in their mind to change themselves. And the thing about the blue lipstick, everyone seems to think it was a different number, some people say 5, I’ve seen people say 12 or even 42 a little over a year ago I thought it said “actually it’s coral blue lipstick number 42”, but as I’ve said before, these memories are so old we don’t remember them as vividly as we once did. It’s the bearenstien/bearenstein vs the bearenstain, or the cornucopia, or even loony tunes vs loony toons. People like to think they can’t be persuaded but we can, our memories are not as good as we think they are, hell I remember the Gary episode very clearly even today, and i can tell you 100% we never saw squidward transform, I think some people either made it up because it was creepy or because they didn’t remember and everyone else started to believe it
Our brains are not good memory storage device. I'm not sure who said it, but someone said that we only keep a copy of our memories with details missing every time we try to remember them, it gets duplicate again and again, losing relevance
Mr krabs did say I’m Eugene and I love money because I always face palmed when he said it and he did laugh after he said that line in the ding dang song
I literally never heard about any of these. How much do you want to bet he made most of these "fake memory scenes" up to fill up the video? And honestly, these don't exactly sound like Mandela effects for SpongeBob fans but rather casual viewers who saw an episode once and never looked back. "The Krusty Krab Training Video" is one of the better-known episodes from the Hillenburg age and the bait-and-switch ending is one of its iconic moments. I'm hard-pressed to imagine any SpongeBob fan misremembering that as being the exact opposite instead of a variation of what happened (like the scene cutting to static instead of the end credits or something like that).
6:39 I'm from Germany and I also remembered Spongebob saying a different number so I looked it up. And wouldn't you know it: In the German version he actually says "It's coral blue no. 3" the moment he gets hit and I'm shocked to see it not being in the English version aswell. Maybe people mistook the German one for the original somehow. The German word for 3 does sound a bit like the English word for 5 if you don't speak German (both make an 'i' sound). Or it was in the original but then cut out at some point.
I never remembered there being a scene of the photo, but I did theorize it was the photo Squidward took of the sad SpongeBob next to the Christmas Coral Tree.
That snapshot of Spongebob at the Christmas Party one is the most terrifying one because it's been plaguing me for years. I remember seeing him with his pants down in the photo, kinda like in Ripped Pants, but in his house decorated for a Christmas Party as described, even with some of his other friends in the shot. I'm convinced that this was bonus material during the bumpers outside of the episode at some point and I just associate it with the description Patrick gives.
There was one I remember in the Plankton episode where he has the machine that would tell him what the ingredients of an object he puts in it. I specifically remember at the end where Plankton falls in the machine, the computer (Karen) said he was made up of 50% Plank and 50% Ton. I remember this being funny because at the first object he puts in which is Sea weed and when he put it in it said 50% Sea 50% Weed, so at the end it would’ve showed that even if he did put the Patty into the machine he wouldn’t of gotten the ingredients but rather a variant of that. However that’s not how the scene goes, in the actual episode Karen says, 10% Evil and 90% Hot gas (Or something around those lines I don’t quite remember) this blew my mind as I didn’t remember it going like that at all. Besides that though all the other Mandela effects I think were made up to get people talking, I mean of course they never said the secret formula at the end of the episode that was the whole joke!
8:55 They may recall the narrator saying the ingredients because spongebob once said the basic ones of the crabby patty before stopping saying that the secret ingredient can't be said. People may have mixed those two elements togheter, thinking it was the narrator that said all of that before the video training tape ended.
If these were exactly how people remembered them, then it would make the jokes worse. The Christmas photo, coral blue, the training video and a good amount more.
With the SpongeBob in the santa outfit snapshot, I can see why this one exists. Because, also in a Season 2 episode, this image DOES exist, and it is shown. It's just in a different episode, "Christmas Who?" People have conflated the two episodes.
I think a lot of these are age things. When you’re super young, its easy to misremember things. Im old enough to remember when these episodes first aired and a lot of the things that people claim they remember, but never happened, I also know didn’t happen. Especially for older episodes. To the point that Im actually surprised that a lot of these mandela effects are so heavily “remembered”. Like I’ve always remembered Spongebobs guitar in the movie being a peanut, so Im shocked people ever thought it was anything different, especially since the peanut/goofy goober thing was literally a major theme in the movie. Or that people “remembered” Patricks secret photo of Spongebob was ever revealed, when I never recalled that happening. The Pickles episode I remember it happening exactly the way it was shown, and dont recall anything like people adding more things Bubble Bass stole. Later episodes I can’t speak on, because I stopped watching Spongebob sometime around season 4/5ish, but yeah.
The guitar being purple would have been so weird, too. Purple outfit with a purple guitar? It would have blended in too much whereas the peanut stands out against the outfit. It wouldn't have even made sense colour-wise.
that doesn't really explain the mandela effect entirely, though. it's a collective misremembering of the same thing. so it can't just be "its easy to misremember things when youre young"
I was in my early 20’s when the show first aired and I was obsessed with it for a number of years. I’m familiar with all the episodes shown except Atlantis Squarepantis, and the movie. I clearly remember every one of those episodes as they are shown here to have actually happened.
@@chocolateblocks Its a collective misremembering because most of the people who swear they remembered things differently were toddlers or born after these episodes aired. A lot of comments I read even have people describing other things they swore happened that weren’t talked about in the video, but I remember them exactly as they aired. At this point people are calling their own personal misinterpretations are Mandela effects. I genuinely just think that some events from other episodes get mixed up with each other. Like, there are a lot of shows I watched as a kid where in specific episodes, I could’ve sworn things happened differently, but once I rewatched it later on I see wasn’t the case. Im not chalking that up as the mandela effect simply because I could’ve sworn it was different.
that doesn't make sense lol. how would everyone misremember the same thing just because they were all toddlers or born after the episodes were aired? and the situation you've pointed out is separate from legitimate mandela effects@@ohmyprettygirl
I remember the episode “The Bully” at the end when Mrs Puff walks in and it looks like Spongebob beat up Flats and she says “I’M GOING TO KICK YOUR BUTT!!” I originally remember Spongebob letting out a scream right after Mrs Puff said the last line but now, the episode just ends with her line and no one else seems to remember Spongebob screaming at the end as well.
in that pickles episode, i think there are dubs/translations of the episode in other languages that mention the other items, like the shoe and the wallet
The interesting thing about the embarrassing photo from the Christmas party is that I've now heard three different descriptions of the photo including my own - I VERY distinctly remember seeing Patrick holding the photograph, and it was Spongebob tangled up in a bunch of Christmas lights, and I remember thinking "That's it, huh?" Most likely all the "photos" we remember seeing were actually in other things like different episodes or commercials, but I can't find the one I remember at all!
Interestingly, before I read your comment, I never ever thought about Spongebob tangled up in christmas lights, but now it's almost like I can see it before my inner eye.
There was one I remember from the 2nd movie, particularly with the scene where Plankton gets tortured by SpongeBob's Laughter. I remember it being a bit longer than it was, heck I could recall SpongeBob literally laughing in Plankton's face...
6:52 Fun fact, if you owned the DVD that had this exact episodes you get to see the story boards spoken out, and in those storyboards you get to hear SpongeBob say "Actually its coral blue number *bonk*... Four..." which may be where so many people remember it from
Spongebob debuted when I was in high school, so I remember all but the Atlantis episode perfectly...but the Bubble Bass one got me! I think it's just so classic a setup that the brain does a "yes-and" on it. Cool video, thanks!
most of these are just really small discrepancies so it's not surprising that they get mixed up, especially because most of us haven't seen these episodes in a while
I had to watch that snail episode so often as a kid and maybe our brains somehow got memories from a parallel universe where that transformation scene really did happen lol
Nah your memories are just awful, and the fact that you think that only a parallel universe could be the reason instead of you just misremembering probably tells a lot about your true mental status lol
I actually remember viewers also recalled the ending of the Krusty Krab training video ending with the narrator saying the secret formula must never be discussed followed by a scene of SpongeBob fainting
I remember the guitar being v shaped and purple, and I think we’re all drawing from his outfit for the colors and maybe even the design. He’s got a flowy purple cloak and sharp white boots, so it makes sense that those could combine in some way in our heads for the guitar. But I know that yellow square said coral blue number 5. Honestly I don’t get Mandela effect for any of the other ones, but I do remember these two.
Something that I've never seen mentioned is the "Scaredy Pants" episode where SpongeBob dresses up as the Flying Dutchman. I swear there was a scene at the end of the episode or near the end that was a close up of SpongeBobs new look, the entirety of his head other than his brain and spine shaved off by Patrick. I swear I saw this, but no one brings it up.
My husband and I were just talking about this episode the other day and I looked up the episode. I don't remember the spine part but his brain was definitely showing and I remember when I watched it for the first time it freaked me out and cracked me up all at once. Still does 😂😂 it's incredibly underrated!!
@seniordevice Yes! Although, I had no clue it was unused. I had assumed it was in the episode and they cut it after airing it a few times due to complaint. At the very end of the episode, there's a black screen where SpongeBob yells "What? It'll grow back!" and I feel like that was definitely either edited and chopped together with the ending or thrown in as a reassurance to make the close-up less horrifying.
There’s an added layer to the joke at the end of the training video episode, which is that there was something wrong with a LOT of tv broadcasting around this time period. It might’ve been because of a scheduling error, but commercials would often interrupt the last few moments of a show, sometimes taking out a whole minute or two. When I saw that episode for the first time, I remember laughing really hard because I realized they were taking advantage of this tv problem and making people think that the last few minutes got cut off by accident. Back then, there wasn’t an easy way to confirm it or not.
Honestly, the concept of Mandela Effects is one that really intrigues me. The idea of remembering when you saw and/or heard something that might've never actually happened is so stunning. I might've had a couple cases of Mandela Effects myself! But if I did, I don't remember any of them lmao
Interesting... I never had these Mandela effects as memories... only the originals lol. I guess because I watched the show so much I quoted it often 😂 But this was interesting to watch and see what others "remembered"
More Mandela effects in SpongeBob!

This is such clickbait, nothing on ur list is a "Mandela effect", this is so clickbait that I could even predict what you were gonna claim was a "Mendal effect" when u begin to speak of an episode.
I’ll check it out
Absolutely nothing of value would be lost if you just quit pointlessly explaining each episdode before getting to the point of the video...
I always thought the snapshot of the Christmas Party was Spongebob crying which Squidward took. Yeah, seeing my picture of me taken with me crying like a little bitch would be embarrassing to say the least.
the christmas photo wasn't shown during the episode, but an embarrassing photo of spongebob at a christmas party was indeed shown during one of those "merry Nickmas" promos with all the nicktoons celebrating christmas together

As someone who has repeatedly watched the golden era of SpongeBob, the only one that messed with me was the Christmas party picture.
because i think you could find the photo somewhere on the internet
I remember thinking of a picture in my head. I’ve seen that episode a lot since it’s on a DVD I had
i think i remember seeing an exact picture but couldn’t remember anything too embarrassing just him making that damn embarrassed face and a bunch of christmas lights 😂 and ive always just thought it was cuz i had the dvds back in the day or something or have seen it somewhere but i also dont know lmao because i know it didn’t happen i just remember it somehow (edit: im not even sure if i remember him with the embarrassed face just the lights particularly also could not remember a santa outfit either)
@@FearTheWeird300omg i just commented something exactly like that 😂
I believe y’all mean the picture which squidward makes when Christmas actually was but Santa clause didn’t arrive and he laughed him off, while SpongeBob has really big teary eyes 🥹
The guitar is peanut shaped because the mascot Goofy Goober is a peanut. This is also why it says "GG" on the guitar, which stands for Goofy Goober.
I know right, why couldn't anyone make that obvious connection?
It is a key part of his character. He embraced his goofy goober and child side, so the peanut guitar shows how he embraced it and uses it.
@@GLASSB182 Exactly!!
No, you’re wrong. It was a Flying V. The CERN-AI made it into a peanut. I’m not joking.
@@MortalWarz The CERN-AI? The European Organization for Nuclear Research... has an AI... and it changed Spongebob's guitar?
In the german version, Spongebob actually replies with "actually, it's coral blue number *whack on the head* three...", so the Mandela effect could be language specific
true
even the subtitles say it
“actually it’s coral blue number”
“three”
Weird that it's three, I remember it also being five
and idk if it's because I'm colourblind, but I remember it being "coral purple number 5"
i remember even in the actual airing spongebob saying fo- *whack* -ee sounded like the start of four and end of three to me, thats what i remember specifically
It’s in the STORYBOARDS!
I think spongebobs sharp white boots contribute greatly to people remembering his guitar as similar
i remember his guitar being red lol
@@Amy-si8gq I remember it being a white triangle guitar with 2 necks
I remember a purple v shaped guitar with 2 necks.
i remember it being a white V shape guitar with one neck.. but i don’t know.
@@ryanweaver130 yeah that's weird, when my friend showed me Jimmy Page's performance when I was in high school, I said that the guitar looked like what SpongeBob played in the movie, I said that because I didn't really follow music back in the day.
I always remembered Krabs just saying “corral blue lipstick” and SpongeBob replies, “Actually, it’s corral blue number 42.” So weird. And I vividly remember SpongeBob with a white V shaped guitar at the end of the SpongeBob movie
SAME! Except I thought it was "coral blue number 7." Plus I thought the original Spongeboy Ahoy design of Spongebob had shoe laces
Well I remembered it as: *actually it’s coral blue number 55.*
Same
Spongebobs white boots might explain that memory
i remember it as "coral blue number 5"
I think the one with the embarassing christmas photo is because many confused it with another episode, the christmas special ("Christmas Who?") where Spongebob starts crying after Santa doesn't come, and Squidward takes a photo of him while he is standing next to the christmas tree coral, staring with huge crying eyes into the camera. Some might have remembered this photo as the embarassing christmas party photo.
And the guitar one might also be because of the white pointy boots Spongebob is wearing, which would stylistically fit a white v-shaped guitar people were remembering.
oh my god that was the picture i remembered of spongebob
guess my brain really does play tricks on me by bending what i know to be fact
I think the V guitar idea also comes from a rockstar Spongebob picture I’ve seen on some merchandise.
I always thought that the photo that was taken in the christmas special is supposed to be the one that is in the box.
Could be the santa hat from "The Snowball Effect" as well
I think the embarrassing Christmas photo was from an old Christmas promo they used to play on Nickelodeon in the early 2000s.
The guitar one may be caused by the Spongebob movie tie-in game in wich Spongebob use a v shape guitar as a power up and once you upgrade it it changes into the peanut guitar
Which*
The Training video one is most likely people misremembering when Plankton reads off the ingredients in Plankton's Army
Also the episode where SpongeBob was listing the ingredients when he was about to drop thr Kraby Patty on Plankton's machinr (SpongeBob was being mind controlled by Plankton)
Also the commercial episode where Mr KRABS lists ingredients. Also also Pickles, where ingredients are listed multiple times.
Actually, it’s chum
The embarrassing photo of Spongebob at the Christmas party *was* actually shown during one of the 2002 Merry Nickmas bumpers
No it wasn’t. Ur wrong. That has never been claimed by the creators. And it never even said that in the episode. Be quiet. It’s a normal Christmas picture in that episode. Quit lying. U hear shit wrong and just go with it. Listen better next time. Cuz Ik exactly what ur talking about. And that has never been correlated ever by anyone. And it’s not even an embarrassing picture. What r u talking about?
And also that makes no sense to lie and say that is the actual picture. When the picture corresponds with the ripped pants episode. Which SpongeBob was doing intentionally to the whole goolagoon for a laugh. That makes absolutely no sense that the “embarrassing photo” is something he was doing for fun
@@csorighthere8414 Then how can you literally watch the bumper where the bumper’s narrator literally refers to a picture of Spongebob taken at a Christmas party as embarrassing whilst showing it on screen?
@@csorighthere8414 Also, given that in the short, Spongebob isn’t a frycook yet, it’s safe to say it is set in the past. And also Spongebob didn’t rip his pants “for fun” in Ripped Pants
@@csorighthere8414
Ur 🤮
I like how this guys is like “dang, I remember SpongeBob finishing the word five, guess this is an alternate dimension”
scuh shitty video
I think the reason why people (including myself) misremember the Pickles one is because they get it confused with the scene from Bubble Buddy where Spongebob tries get the other fish to show mercy instead of popping Bubble Buddy by convincing them to reflect on things they love. All of the fish start to mention the material things they're attached to, so at least for me, that's where I think the confusion likely came from.
the same thing popped in my mind
boo boo keys🥺🥺
It made me think of the time that Squidward was burning everything. Like the guy that said "he burnt my shake". Might have even been the same episode, I'm not sure.
@@darcieee_funny muffler 😢
@@dr_popcornsnake eyes
These mandela effects are crazy. Who tf thought you actually got to see the picture in the box?
Agreed... this is just people who never really paid attention with poor memory honestly. I have never heard of any of these or thought of any of these.
@@paris6817 The thing is, it's not "people with poor memory", but rather people who are unwilling to accept that memory is reconstructive instead of keeping a verbatim record. I know, it's weird if you encounter the idea for the first time, but hiding from it doesn't help matters...
The Mandela effect is often people remembering things a certain way but it actually isn’t. But most of the time it actually did exist, but brands tend to change their logos and things, so they aren’t wrong technically
But then it's not a true Mandela Effect example. It's only a Mandela Effect if people think they changed it when actually it stayed the same.
why do people think that everything they saw as kids is the truth and not that they can’t remember tv shows because they were stupid kids and not some mandela effect
I think everyone had nightmares about Squidward turning into a snail and remembers it too vividly to forget it
Yes
Real😊
As someone who watched SpongeBob all summer growing up, i remember all of these perfectly😭 maybe that’s a bad thing, but while watching this video I kept thinking “that never happened”💀
right im kinda upset that im not feeling any mandela effect
Same
(It's not real) (People have bad memories)
SAME EXCEPT FOR THE SPONGEBOB CHRISTMAS ONE
Same, this video felt like a waste of time
In German he finishes the sentence and reveals it is Coral Blue No. 3.
And for the Bubble Bass scene, it is pretty similar to another scene in the episode Bubble Buddy, where a few fish list things very close to their heart.
"boo boo keys"
people may also be confusing the bubble bass scene with the scene where the customers complain that squidward burnt their food?...maybe?...
It's a dub thing I guess cause same for spanish where he says it
And where the fish goes “he burnt my shake!”
Es war Korallenblau Nr. ... 3 🥴💙🧽
all of these mandela effects i remember as the way they are. I really think people just have bad memory or making things up
5:31 no mf ever thought SpongeBob had laces this is the cappest cap that ever capped 🧢
if anything it was literally just people remembering the shoe tying episode
I think the Mandela Effect with the secret formula is just a mix up between another episode where Plankton and his relatives start to read out a fake recipe and the final ingredient was plankton
this is what i was thinking of !
Before the secret sauce was conceptualized, Spongebob literally says the entire recipe in the Bubble Bass pickle episode. "I can't put a patty on a bun with lettuce, cheese, onions, tomatoes, ketchup, mustard, pickles and top bun together in that order!" Granted he doesn't say what kind of patty and maybe seasoning on the patty, but everything else is spelled out like it's a normal burger.
@@VGamingJunkieVT It's funny because he says "in that order", but it's different than it was at the beginning of the episode.
What also contributes to that, is that Plankton and the Training Video Narrator are both voiced similarly by Doug Lawrence.
@reiianyt
Seems like, later on, the emphasis became less on the patty and more on the secret sauce that replaced the ketchup and mustard.
This is so fascinating to me because like half of these are "No, I definitely 100% remember that exact thing happening" and the other half are "What? No, it's always been like that." What messes me up the most is Coral Blue #5 because- that is such a weirdly specific number for so many people to recall only for it to have never been stated. How can so many people collectively remember something that specifically even though it never happened? And on top of that, if it was just misremembering and people believing said misconception, shouldn't that apply to all instances of the effect, and not only a select few?
I don't understand the second question?
@@alexgarner5719 I still don't understand their second question
@@alexgarner5719 ok I think I understand what they meant now, it was just phrased weirdly
People's brains like to fill in the blanks. No. 5 has a lot of references in culture. Mambo No. 5 Chanel No. 5
I wonder, are the 50% that you agree with, collectively older than the other 50%?
"i never paid much attention" is a perfect example of why the Mandela effect, well, affects people. All they know is vague memories because they never paid attention. I've had cases where since i paid attention, i knew it wasn't one way or another.
Most of these "memories" are often caused by people forcing their brains to remember what actually happened, and since the only information they have are the claims of other people, that's the only thing their brains come up with.
Same. There was really only one instance here where I was like “wait that didn’t happen??” and it was Pickles. I could’ve sworn the scene had a couple more examples than just “car keys.”
@@twelved4983 probably because of other episodes
For real, the guitar thing is stupid. Take it from someone that actually saw the movie in theaters, it was always a peanut
@@Dommbuscus actually guiltar isn’t stupid is just mean not everyone will experience the Mandela effect, ignorant
I don't know how anyone could mishear the iconic "I like money" line. It has been that way since The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie! lol
My Mandela memory is I remembered Patrick actually answering “I’d get another ice cream.” in the Hall Monitor episode before it cuts to them coming out of the shop again.
Ngl that "Interacting with your boss" clip was pretty acurate.
"you're telling me my brain is making all this stuff up?" ... yes
No
Maybe
So
@@N_IRLi don’t know, can you repeat the question?
Its because patrick says embarrassing party photo, and our brains connect that to the chirstmas episode.
5:22 For the shoelaces, the Mandela Effect never occurred to me since I like drawing SpongeBob a lot when I was younger. The look of his shiny black shoes had already been burned to my mind that I am very certain the shoelaces were never present and it was only for the episode's sake.
6:51 For the lipstick, I was also affected as I do remember SpongeBob finishing it, but he says "Coral Blue Number 52". Although, I speculate that I was mixed with the "62 cents" from "Born Again Krabs" because of the emphasis the Dutchman put on saying "62" seemingly fits well with how SpongeBob talks, at least for my young mind, and misremembered the voice as SpongeBob's.
9:33 The gag of cutting the narrator off when saying the Formula was burned into my memory because I saw it in TV first, so I laughed very loudly when it cuts immediately to the episode's special credits sequence. When I was young, I've always lamented that the DVD version didn't include the credits, so the cut-off felt hollow.
10:16 Ironically, I wasn't affected becaus, back then, I felt like they should've added more people complaining since having few people complaining felt like his defeat is a bit lackluster.
12:03 Ngl, I loved Atlantis Squarepantis, so I kinda memorized the entire special and its songs since I've watched it so many times, so nothing really felt off for me.
Yeah, I think many people forget that kinds watching TV shows together, they like embellish it as they go, add their own commentary, and then afterwards, they retell and act it out again and again, until it has changed quite a bit. And of course these memories kinda stick in the head the same way as the actual episode.
Never watched Star Wars, but hearing you correct that practically biblical reference at the end made me question my entire existence. My life is a lie lol.
About the shoelaces - it's probably implied that they're always there but not actually drawn to save resources and they're so tiny that it wouldn't really look good in frame, so they're only shown up close or in the episode where it's the main plot point, like many other times when there is a close up on something in Spongebob you see a hyper realistic painting of that
For the Christmas Party photo, I think I know why so many people remember it being shown. There’s a book (I don’t know the name) but there’s a section called Candid Camera where SpongeBob describes the events and there’s a photo of him in his underwear at a party. The secret box is even mentioned.
I swear to god I have always remembered SpongeBob pulling out a white double neck V-shaped guitar.
SAME! for me the neck was purple, and the outline of the V was purple, but the rest was white
SAME BRO
nah its his white boots that you are remembering, the Goofy Goober is a peanut.
@@balls_gamingthis
@@superwin9000 is funny how people who never experienced the Mandela effect will always say that 🤦♀😂
sandy's guitar is definitely what caused people to misremember the ending of the spongebob movie, i mean that such an iconic episode
Isn’t that people are misremembering is that you people don’t understand it 😭
The secret box photograph was 100% shown but not during the episode. It was featured in a short pre-show segment that Nickelodeon would run during the Christmas season featuring various Nicktoon characters. I remember the segment depicted a Christmas party with Timmy Turner, Hey Arnold, and some other characters. And during the segment the embarrassing photo of Spongebob on a Polaroid is briefly shown.
My dad claims he remembers the orange fish in the Pizza Delivery episode saying “How an I supposed to ENJOY this pizza without my drink?!”
The mandela effect really falls apart when you remember that you're stupid and misremember things - and if you can - then millions of others can as well, then just fuel their own confirmation bias.
Well yes, that IS exactly the mandela effect.
@@gargaduk why do you say it like that? People think the Mandela effect is universes overlapping lmao
@@pauliman1098 Some people might think that, but that doesn't make it more true.
@@gargaduk you misunderstand, I agree with you. When I learned the term Mandela effect, the person that described it to me said that was basically the definition. So learning after the fact that that's not the definition fucked me up!
People REALLY believe parallel universe are clashing to cause the mandela effect? What the hell
I always imagined that "Embarrassing photo of Spongebob at the Christmas party" was the one taken by squidward in the episode "Santa Who?" though I recall it not being shown in the secret box episode
I remember that V shaped guitar and the secret formula being cut off abruptly vividly. Like I remember the episode ending as soon as the narrator said “and-“
The pickles one really got me, because I'm like, I've watched this episode so many times as a child, there's absolutely no way there was anything more said
During a holiday commercial bumper in the early 2000's, we see "embarrassing photos" of various nicktoons characters at the nicktoons Christmas party, and there's one of Spongebob. That's where your memory comes from :)
The biggest one for me out of all of these is definitely SpongeBob's guitar. I remember the V-shaped guitar so vividly, I was stunned when I first learned it was a peanut guitar! I know it's SpongeBob, but the peanut guitar makes the whole thing look weird and, well.. goofy. It was supposed to be an awesome, epic moment, and the V-shaped rocker guitar added to that.
As for the Krusty Krab Training Video, I don't remember the recipe ever being revealed, but it does end MUCH more abruptly than I remembered. Way back when I first watched it, I remember it was like "The Krabby Patty Secret Foruma is...!" and then it ended. But the "is" is cut off so abruptly now, it almost sounds like an editing error. It's a minor change, but it's jarring to hear.
The other effects in the video, I'm not sure about. I feel like they could be either or. But the guitar and the "is" cutoff... something's up with that.
bro I remember it so vividly as a white v shaped guitar
the v shape one was a different episode
SpongeBob does use a red V shaped guitar in the movie game, but when upgraded, becomes the peanut shaped Goofy Goober guitar
Wait someone else also remembers the "is" at the end of the Krusty Krab Training Video getting fully said and not cut off!?!
Its cuz of the PS2 Spongebob The Movie game that gave me that V shaped guitar mandela effect
The mandala effect is interesting, because the conclusions that people always imagine always seem to be better versions of what actually happens. Or ones that makes more sense in context.
A wonderful example is the thinker statue, who people imagine to have his chin resting on a closed fist, when in reality, his hand is slumped against his face, in a very illogical manner.
A popular theory is the human brain is so used to filling in the gaps of our memories, that it will correct details that doesn't seem to fit conventional wisdom. It therefore conjures fake memories that make more sense to the individual. Since human brains function similarly, this can happen on a large scale.
"Do you remember SpongeBob holding a peanut shaped guitar? That's much too silly to be true, he was holding a V shaped guitar like the one in this other episode you saw"
The peanut guitar fits a lot better though
That was me with Skechers brand
Well the thinker statue looks like it's resting on a fist, depending on the angle you look at it from. Considering the fact that that angle looks the best, it's no surprise, that this is what people remember.
A popular theory is that we all live in different timelines which is why we all remember different
@@SadisticNiles the Mandela effect is actually cause quantum jumping 😳
I think the secret box was the same anticipation effect as the Krusty Krab Training Video situation. However, I do also think there may be some mix-up with the training video and some other instances in which ingredients have been listed (Plankton's Army, The Great Patty Caper). The expectation plus the memories of recipes being listed elsewhere could've easily merged into the assumption that they were listed in that episode.
exactly this bc I never recalled an ingredient being mentioned on the krusty krab training video lol
The secret formula in Plankton's Army was fake, remember?
@@MasterOfViewership Yes, I remember, but that's not the point. The point is that ingredients were listed, and thus there's still an instance to be mixed up. Fake or not, there was a recipe, and so the memory of a recipe would still exist to get confused.
Rock Bottom is one of the only SpongeBob episodes besides, Your Shoe is Untied where SpongeBob had laces.
I always remembered Spongebob turning left from his house to go to work instead of right and running past Squidward and Patrick's homes
its different from episode to episode
The geography of bikini bottom is never the same each episode.
For the one in Atlantis squarepantis
I feel like the reason people remember krabs laughing after saying "me true color was green" is because it sorta rhymes with the lyrics from the episode selling out. Where mr krabs says "nothing on earth like the feeling of greed" and then laughed
I immediately thought of Selling out episode when he mentioned Mr Krabs laughing after saying green
I don't remember the peanut guitar, but I think the reason we remember it as a v-shaped one is because we're all focusing on his stripper boots lmao
Have you played the GBA game?
Spongebob's clothes in that final scene are also purple and v-shaped so that could be part of it too.
For the Santa outfit one, I remember in another episode they actually showed the picture when referencing the Christmas party again
I think that might of been fanmade because I remember that as well but it was removed because of copyright
For the 'coral blue' scene. In many other languages he actually finishes his sentence. The English version is one of the view where gets hit before finishing his sentence.
in german he is finishing the sentence
in the German version he says it's number 3
But in English, it's "Actually, it's Coral Blue Number-" but get hits in the head by a fishing pole
@@MasterOfViewership Yeah, iirc, in German he of course get's also hit but then he still says "three" (or "drei" in German) in a kind of sad and dizzy tone of voice.
The pickles one could be mixed up with Bubble Buddy, with the part where SpongeBob asks the other fish if they had friends, leading them to cry about their friends, like a piece of meat, and a car muffler, as a kid I always mistook the two scenes with that
I had the same idea
That's immediately what I thought of, a fuzzy pair of dice.
I thought of the one episode where people have burnt food (and other) items and the shot goes around the Krusty Krab panning to people listing off what was burnt "he burnt my food, he burnt my shake, he burnt my wallet... etc"
3:30 I have never even watched spongebob before, and even I remember the photo being a santa outfit
bro the krabby patty formula is literally SPONGEBOB, they show us it, they couldn't be listing off ingredients.
It's very interesting how almost every mandela effect that was talked about in this video, I vividly remember.
The guitar one was a big shock to me when I heard about it a few months back. I watched a TH-cam video that asked "what do you remember SpongeBob's guitar looking like from the movie?" and without hesitation, I immediately remembered the white, double neck, V shape guitar. Prior to this video, I hadn't seen that scene of the SpongeBob movie in many years, so how I very vividly remembered the white, double neck, V shape guitar shocked me.
You guys remember the final scene in the 1st SpongeBob Movie before Ocean Man?
Well I had a Mandela Effect where SpongeBob said “I was gonna tell you that your shoe is untied” instead of “I was gonna tell you that your fly is down”
8:26 so we not gonna talk about the whole ass electric chair like tf😂😂😂😂
I definitely don't remember that XD
Ytps made me remember that 😂😂
@BlueRaspBerryVrTheGoober Cool CaAt- can I have a raise?
No.
In 8:12 im not very sure but i think its a mixup with the episode where plankton gets his cousins, because in one of the scenes plankton reads off some of the ingredients before it shows Plankton as the "real" main ingredient.
Patrick showing the picture of Spongebob, which was a picture of Spongebob ripping his pants, was in Commercial Bumpers where all the Nicktoons came over to Spongebobs House for a party. I think theyre all lost now.
What's crazy to me is that when I was a kid (like 7 years old) I vividly remembered that in the Krusty Krab training video episode the narrator starts listing ingredients, but then rewatching it many times over through the next few years I always wondered where that scene went and was just like "I guess they must have removed it" as to keep the formula safe (very silly yes but I was a child at the time lol) so the fact it never existed and people remembering the exact same thing I did is kinda mindblowing to me
I remember it literally the exact way you described it. What might have happened is the cut was slightly later and less abrupt. Idk I might be trippin. But I swear something definitely happened to that episode.
Literally same.
No same cause as a ten year old I had the same thought of "guess they removed it" and being confused why i never saw that scene again
you might be thinking of the episode where plankton gets the formula with all his cousins and starts reading off the ingredients??
@@judeperks6612 I remember the sandwich being built piece by piece as the ingredients were listed off
Its really a testament to how long this show has been going on and how memorable it is, that a lot of these can be explained by similar scenarios, scenes, and jokes in different episodes.
The ingredients list is likely misremembered due to it being read out in "Plankton's Army."
The scene in "Pickles" is so similar to the fuzzy dice, meat, and muffler scene in "Bubble Buddy"
Or even some people remembering the Christmas Party photo as the photo Squidward took in "Christmas Who?"
I swear I thought a background fish said "there's my fries!" right before the pink fish said "and there's my car keys" with the bubble bass episode
Maybe you remembered when a background fish in another episode said "He burnt my fries." before the guy who said "He burnt my shake."
Yeah
@@BigForAHedgehogi think there was also another episode where they did this too and one of the fish said "he ate my pants" or something like that and we see his ass bitten. I forget what episode but this gag is done several times that it might have caused people to misremember.
"There's my fries" sounds like what bubble bass says, "theres my ride" maybe that's what's making it confusing
9:21 that one was probably mixed up with the episode mentioned after this one where the krabby patty recipe is actually revealed using the same image of the burger in front of that blue background
one of my mandelas were when mr krabs said "DIE, SRIMP!" but he said "SCRAM, SRIMP!"
I fucking SWEAR the guitar from the movie was white and in the shape of GG, but now I realize the GG is just on the end?
Interestingly enough, in the comic book adaptation of "Clams" released exclusively in the U.K. and Ireland, SpongeBob actually DOES finish his sentence, but what he says is "Actually, it's Coral Blue No. 1." I don't know where everyone got "No. 5" from.
in the german version he says 3
im thinking the 5 comes from things like mambo no. 5 & chanel no. 5
I remember 99% of these episodes very vividly and none of the Mandela effects ever happened. What more than likely happened was somebody remembered something wrong and posted it and everyone due to the power of suggestion said “oh yeah I remember that happening that way too” and then the very fuzzy memory of all of the episodes being to warp in their mind to change themselves. And the thing about the blue lipstick, everyone seems to think it was a different number, some people say 5, I’ve seen people say 12 or even 42 a little over a year ago I thought it said “actually it’s coral blue lipstick number 42”, but as I’ve said before, these memories are so old we don’t remember them as vividly as we once did. It’s the bearenstien/bearenstein vs the bearenstain, or the cornucopia, or even loony tunes vs loony toons. People like to think they can’t be persuaded but we can, our memories are not as good as we think they are, hell I remember the Gary episode very clearly even today, and i can tell you 100% we never saw squidward transform, I think some people either made it up because it was creepy or because they didn’t remember and everyone else started to believe it
Facts people are tripping I don’t remember any of these Mandela effects
I’m on your side but that’s kind of the paradox of it you can’t technically prove that anyone outside of yourself saw the same thing or not
@@krystianrzemieniecki712 fact people aren’t tripping not everyone will experience Mandela effects that what you people can’t understand 🥰😂
Our brains are not good memory storage device. I'm not sure who said it, but someone said that we only keep a copy of our memories with details missing every time we try to remember them, it gets duplicate again and again, losing relevance
Mr krabs did say I’m Eugene and I love money because I always face palmed when he said it and he did laugh after he said that line in the ding dang song
I literally never heard about any of these. How much do you want to bet he made most of these "fake memory scenes" up to fill up the video?
And honestly, these don't exactly sound like Mandela effects for SpongeBob fans but rather casual viewers who saw an episode once and never looked back. "The Krusty Krab Training Video" is one of the better-known episodes from the Hillenburg age and the bait-and-switch ending is one of its iconic moments. I'm hard-pressed to imagine any SpongeBob fan misremembering that as being the exact opposite instead of a variation of what happened (like the scene cutting to static instead of the end credits or something like that).
I genuinely don't understand how people misremember the guitar, given how important the peanut is in the movie
6:39 I'm from Germany and I also remembered Spongebob saying a different number so I looked it up. And wouldn't you know it: In the German version he actually says "It's coral blue no. 3" the moment he gets hit and I'm shocked to see it not being in the English version aswell. Maybe people mistook the German one for the original somehow. The German word for 3 does sound a bit like the English word for 5 if you don't speak German (both make an 'i' sound). Or it was in the original but then cut out at some point.
4:01 “you’re gonna tell me my brain is making this stuff up?”
YES!
I legitimately can't say I relate to any of these Mandela effects. I remember these exactly the way as they actually happened.
I never remembered there being a scene of the photo, but I did theorize it was the photo Squidward took of the sad SpongeBob next to the Christmas Coral Tree.
That snapshot of Spongebob at the Christmas Party one is the most terrifying one because it's been plaguing me for years. I remember seeing him with his pants down in the photo, kinda like in Ripped Pants, but in his house decorated for a Christmas Party as described, even with some of his other friends in the shot. I'm convinced that this was bonus material during the bumpers outside of the episode at some point and I just associate it with the description Patrick gives.
me too! i think the party was in Patrick's house, though
It was a Nicktoons Christmas promo, like between episodes.
@@BDT17 Do you know if anyone has that bumper (promo)?
There was one I remember in the Plankton episode where he has the machine that would tell him what the ingredients of an object he puts in it. I specifically remember at the end where Plankton falls in the machine, the computer (Karen) said he was made up of 50% Plank and 50% Ton. I remember this being funny because at the first object he puts in which is Sea weed and when he put it in it said 50% Sea 50% Weed, so at the end it would’ve showed that even if he did put the Patty into the machine he wouldn’t of gotten the ingredients but rather a variant of that.
However that’s not how the scene goes, in the actual episode Karen says, 10% Evil and 90% Hot gas (Or something around those lines I don’t quite remember) this blew my mind as I didn’t remember it going like that at all.
Besides that though all the other Mandela effects I think were made up to get people talking, I mean of course they never said the secret formula at the end of the episode that was the whole joke!
8:55 They may recall the narrator saying the ingredients because spongebob once said the basic ones of the crabby patty before stopping saying that the secret ingredient can't be said. People may have mixed those two elements togheter, thinking it was the narrator that said all of that before the video training tape ended.
If these were exactly how people remembered them, then it would make the jokes worse.
The Christmas photo, coral blue, the training video and a good amount more.
With the SpongeBob in the santa outfit snapshot, I can see why this one exists. Because, also in a Season 2 episode, this image DOES exist, and it is shown. It's just in a different episode, "Christmas Who?" People have conflated the two episodes.
I think a lot of these are age things. When you’re super young, its easy to misremember things. Im old enough to remember when these episodes first aired and a lot of the things that people claim they remember, but never happened, I also know didn’t happen. Especially for older episodes. To the point that Im actually surprised that a lot of these mandela effects are so heavily “remembered”. Like I’ve always remembered Spongebobs guitar in the movie being a peanut, so Im shocked people ever thought it was anything different, especially since the peanut/goofy goober thing was literally a major theme in the movie. Or that people “remembered” Patricks secret photo of Spongebob was ever revealed, when I never recalled that happening. The Pickles episode I remember it happening exactly the way it was shown, and dont recall anything like people adding more things Bubble Bass stole.
Later episodes I can’t speak on, because I stopped watching Spongebob sometime around season 4/5ish, but yeah.
The guitar being purple would have been so weird, too. Purple outfit with a purple guitar? It would have blended in too much whereas the peanut stands out against the outfit. It wouldn't have even made sense colour-wise.
that doesn't really explain the mandela effect entirely, though. it's a collective misremembering of the same thing. so it can't just be "its easy to misremember things when youre young"
I was in my early 20’s when the show first aired and I was obsessed with it for a number of years. I’m familiar with all the episodes shown except Atlantis Squarepantis, and the movie. I clearly remember every one of those episodes as they are shown here to have actually happened.
@@chocolateblocks Its a collective misremembering because most of the people who swear they remembered things differently were toddlers or born after these episodes aired.
A lot of comments I read even have people describing other things they swore happened that weren’t talked about in the video, but I remember them exactly as they aired. At this point people are calling their own personal misinterpretations are Mandela effects. I genuinely just think that some events from other episodes get mixed up with each other. Like, there are a lot of shows I watched as a kid where in specific episodes, I could’ve sworn things happened differently, but once I rewatched it later on I see wasn’t the case. Im not chalking that up as the mandela effect simply because I could’ve sworn it was different.
that doesn't make sense lol. how would everyone misremember the same thing just because they were all toddlers or born after the episodes were aired? and the situation you've pointed out is separate from legitimate mandela effects@@ohmyprettygirl
I remember the episode “The Bully” at the end when Mrs Puff walks in and it looks like Spongebob beat up Flats and she says “I’M GOING TO KICK YOUR BUTT!!”
I originally remember Spongebob letting out a scream right after Mrs Puff said the last line but now, the episode just ends with her line and no one else seems to remember Spongebob screaming at the end as well.
My brother not only remembered Spongebob screaming but also saying "She's going to kick my butt!" right after the scream.
The santa thing, I thought it was shown too, but I just confused it with the picture squidward does on christmas after santa didn't show up
in that pickles episode, i think there are dubs/translations of the episode in other languages that mention the other items, like the shoe and the wallet
I always remembered the coral blue lipstick scene as it is
But I think SpongeBob was trying to say 3 when Squidward hit him, I can kinda hear it
he actually says 3 in the german dub I just checked because I remembered 5 as wel...
The interesting thing about the embarrassing photo from the Christmas party is that I've now heard three different descriptions of the photo including my own - I VERY distinctly remember seeing Patrick holding the photograph, and it was Spongebob tangled up in a bunch of Christmas lights, and I remember thinking "That's it, huh?" Most likely all the "photos" we remember seeing were actually in other things like different episodes or commercials, but I can't find the one I remember at all!
Interestingly, before I read your comment, I never ever thought about Spongebob tangled up in christmas lights, but now it's almost like I can see it before my inner eye.
There was one I remember from the 2nd movie, particularly with the scene where Plankton gets tortured by SpongeBob's Laughter. I remember it being a bit longer than it was, heck I could recall SpongeBob literally laughing in Plankton's face...
6:52 Fun fact, if you owned the DVD that had this exact episodes you get to see the story boards spoken out, and in those storyboards you get to hear SpongeBob say "Actually its coral blue number *bonk*... Four..." which may be where so many people remember it from
Spongebob debuted when I was in high school, so I remember all but the Atlantis episode perfectly...but the Bubble Bass one got me! I think it's just so classic a setup that the brain does a "yes-and" on it. Cool video, thanks!
6:51 he's about to and actually says "three" though. You can clearly hear it lmao
most of these are just really small discrepancies so it's not surprising that they get mixed up, especially because most of us haven't seen these episodes in a while
I had to watch that snail episode so often as a kid and maybe our brains somehow got memories from a parallel universe where that transformation scene really did happen lol
Nah your memories are just awful, and the fact that you think that only a parallel universe could be the reason instead of you just misremembering probably tells a lot about your true mental status lol
Thankfully, my unhealthy obsession of SpongeBob prevents any kind of Mandela Effect from happening.
I actually remember viewers also recalled the ending of the Krusty Krab training video ending with the narrator saying the secret formula must never be discussed followed by a scene of SpongeBob fainting
Why is the voice different
Mandela effect
I remember the guitar being v shaped and purple, and I think we’re all drawing from his outfit for the colors and maybe even the design. He’s got a flowy purple cloak and sharp white boots, so it makes sense that those could combine in some way in our heads for the guitar. But I know that yellow square said coral blue number 5. Honestly I don’t get Mandela effect for any of the other ones, but I do remember these two.
Something that I've never seen mentioned is the "Scaredy Pants" episode where SpongeBob dresses up as the Flying Dutchman. I swear there was a scene at the end of the episode or near the end that was a close up of SpongeBobs new look, the entirety of his head other than his brain and spine shaved off by Patrick. I swear I saw this, but no one brings it up.
My husband and I were just talking about this episode the other day and I looked up the episode. I don't remember the spine part but his brain was definitely showing and I remember when I watched it for the first time it freaked me out and cracked me up all at once. Still does 😂😂 it's incredibly underrated!!
are you talking about the unused close-up that was supposed to show up after the flying dutchman takes off spongebob's costume?

@seniordevice Yes! Although, I had no clue it was unused. I had assumed it was in the episode and they cut it after airing it a few times due to complaint. At the very end of the episode, there's a black screen where SpongeBob yells "What? It'll grow back!" and I feel like that was definitely either edited and chopped together with the ending or thrown in as a reassurance to make the close-up less horrifying.
There’s an added layer to the joke at the end of the training video episode, which is that there was something wrong with a LOT of tv broadcasting around this time period. It might’ve been because of a scheduling error, but commercials would often interrupt the last few moments of a show, sometimes taking out a whole minute or two.
When I saw that episode for the first time, I remember laughing really hard because I realized they were taking advantage of this tv problem and making people think that the last few minutes got cut off by accident. Back then, there wasn’t an easy way to confirm it or not.
Honestly, the concept of Mandela Effects is one that really intrigues me. The idea of remembering when you saw and/or heard something that might've never actually happened is so stunning. I might've had a couple cases of Mandela Effects myself! But if I did, I don't remember any of them lmao
If you think about that exactly what the multiverse is 🥰
Interesting... I never had these Mandela effects as memories... only the originals lol. I guess because I watched the show so much I quoted it often 😂 But this was interesting to watch and see what others "remembered"
Fun fact you never had these Mandela effect your from this timeline
0:50 "Just to get Patrick and Spongebob off his hair"
Which hair bro???
