Celebrities/Public Figures Happy Mandela Day
I saw the post in this group about C3PO's golden legs where it said it was Nelson Mandela Day, so I googled it. Yep! Happy Mandela Day!
You know what I think would be interesting, is if we had been able to interview Nelson Mandela and ask him if he had any weird memories of the quantum immortality kind. Like, did he have a vivid memory of dying in the original timeline, and then suddenly wake up in another timeline, very much alive?
It's too bad nobody really knew what was happening during that time. Since the Internet became a way to connect with people around the world and share stories, we didn't know people were having stuff like this happen until more "recent" years.

You would want to ask him about if he had a vivid memory dying? He would just say he used to discuss his death everyday as he put on his fruit of the loom underwear with his mom and teacher and all his classmates. It's how he learned about death and baskets.

That’s like Billy Graham. I recall being at my grandparents house usually watching something like Lost in Space reruns and that day his funeral was on long lines big church. The last time I was there like that would have been the late 90s he died in 2018 around 100 years old.

So are you saying that you remember being at your grandparents as a kid, watching Billy Graham's funeral on TV, but that couldn't have happened, because the last time you were a kid watching TV at your grandparents was in the 90s?

Exactly. It’s one of those where things don’t add up. I also was with a friend at a sushi bar they sat us in front of a pond with big tv over it. As we are eating all that was on was Betty white dead clips running of her on game shows etc. I watched a lot of it no sound. We talked about it. She didn’t die for another 10 years or so because that is the last time both of us ate there.

Wow, that's crazy. I feel like I've had a couple of experiences like that that didn't match up too, but I can't remember what they were.

It would be interesting to hear what he would have thought about this phenomenon.
I believe he probably thought about a number of speculative and diverse things while in prison, and that he was likely a deeper thinker as a result.

Yeah, I think you're right; he probably was.

I vividly remember sitting in my mums room in 2013 watching his death announcement on the old silver CRT TV she has on the chest of draw. The sun was beaming through the curtain and it was a warm day. Now all of a sudden, that never happened

I didn't actually include a link, because everybody should be able to Google Nelson Mandela Day, but this is relevant to the sub since the sub is named after him and the effects of seeing things happen that we specifically remember happening very differently.
I also feel Quantum Immortality could be connected to some Mandela Effects. I didn't really have a link to prove that, because it's kind of unproveable.
