The Mandela Effect: Dolly's Braces

[Ninshub]

This isn't new but I wasn't aware of it and somebody just brought it to my attention. This person asked me if I remembered the scene where the character Jaws meets his "girlfriend" in the James Bond film Moonraker (1979), and as he guided me along to retrieve my memory of it, I remembered her as having braces, which is what makes the two characters click. This is how a lot/most people remember the scene. The thing is though that, apparently, in our new reality, she doesn't anymore.

This video presents the story, and at the end I do think its maker probably has a point in his conclusion, but still, weird...

Here's an example of this thing is weird. An old description of the film:

This I thought was a good video explaining the potential illusion.



I especially like the comment about the teeth being shown for 2 seconds so it's easy to misperceive (and therefore "misremember").

That being said, I won't argue against the many comments under this video that still swear they saw braces, especially from people who owned the movie and kept watching it repeatedly. Of course they could still have been misperceiving (mis-apprehending) and therefore, technically, misremembering, but it's still food for thought. A little bit.

This is the only example of the Mandela Effect I've heard that actually potentially gives me pause a little. I never thought Mandela died in prison, never thought Tom Cruise had sunglasses in the singing alone scene in Risky Business, etc. etc. Does anyone here have an example of the ME that stumps them?
