That Santa thing never happened. I remember specifically being upset that I never saw the embarrassing picture after all that build up.

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.

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”💀

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.

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

As someone who has repeatedly watched the golden era of SpongeBob, the only one that messed with me was the Christmas party picture.

"you're telling me my brain is making all this stuff up?" ... yes

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 think spongebobs sharp white boots contribute greatly to people remembering his guitar as similar

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.

I think everyone had nightmares about Squidward turning into a snail and remembers it too vividly to forget it

Some people are so full of themselves that they'd rather think they live in a parallel world over admitting they are misremembering things.

The embarrassing photo of Spongebob at the Christmas party *was* actually shown during one of the 2002 Merry Nickmas bumpers

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.

These mandela effects are crazy. Who tf thought you actually got to see the picture in the box?

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

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 like how this guys is like “dang, I remember SpongeBob finishing the word five, guess this is an alternate dimension”

8:26 so we not gonna talk about the whole ass electric chair like tf😂😂😂😂

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

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

The Training video one is most likely people misremembering when Plankton reads off the ingredients in Plankton's Army

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-“

"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.

Ngl that "Interacting with your boss" clip was pretty acurate.

Some of these I'm surprised by, but i know for a FACT that spongebob was hit after "actually, it's coral blue number-". He never said a number

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”

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.

I swear to god I have always remembered SpongeBob pulling out a white double neck V-shaped guitar.

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?

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

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 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

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.

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.

Not linked to any specific episode, but I could have sworn that there was an interaction between SpongeBob and Patrick that went like this: Patrick: (suggests something) SpongeBob: "Patrick, you're a genius!" Patrick: "Yeah, I get called that a lot." SpongeBob: "What, a genius?" Patrick: "No, Patrick." And I thought for sure that this happened, so I tried looking it up, and found tons of other people quoting it, only to find that this quote (as far as I can tell) was never said. I don't know WHY we all seem to remember this bit of dialogue that just doesn't exist (though it is quite in line with the usual SpongeBob quotes), but I'm not the only one who seems to remember it. It's weird.

I legitimately can't say I relate to any of these Mandela effects. I remember these exactly the way as they actually happened.

The laces one is obviously just something they did for that one episode 💀

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 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.

What pisses me off about a lot of these Mandela effects is this: You’re shown something that implants the false memory into your mind, and you just believe it to be true. Then they show you what it was originally, making you think your memory is failing you, despite the fact they just said “oh, remember how he had a white guitar? *WRONG!!!* it was a peanut guitar, idiot!” Like, c’mon dude…

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

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.

Spongebob's clothes in that final scene are also purple and v-shaped so that could be part of it too.

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 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.

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 think the embarrassing Christmas photo one just comes from people remembering one of the Christmas episodes. I "remembered" the picture in my head, then I looked at one of the Christmans episodes and the frame I "remembered" was just from that episode instead.

‘some of these are a little far fetched’ agrees with each and every one of them

I always remembered Spongebob turning left from his house to go to work instead of right and running past Squidward and Patrick's homes

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

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.

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"

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 Santa outfit one, I remember in another episode they actually showed the picture when referencing the Christmas party again

the laces thing just makes sense. in a cartoon, theres no reason to add unnecessary details like shoelaces to a character design, because that would just slow down the animators.

Ok, first of all, Squidward DID turn into a snail and sung with Spongesnail and Gary, The embarrassing photo was never shown in Box Episode however was shown in ANOTHER episode (I believe Spongebob's house party he wasn't allowed in, where everyone laughs at it kinda meanhearted), Spongebob was always hit in head in mid-word, The guitar was ALWAYS a peanut bro cuz it's the Goofy Goober song originally sung by a giant peanut, Spongebob only had shoelaces for that one episode cuz it's logically economical to not animate shoelaces for every frame. One you did miss was when Sandy makes a helmet that can communicate with nuts, and when Sandy throws a peanut into a nut-juice Spongebob (and us) hears the nut scream, NOW THIS I remember never being heard but there are clips where the scream is audible...

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 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

5:31 no mf ever thought SpongeBob had laces this is the cappest cap that ever capped 🧢

Your brain is making all of this up.

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

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 RU-vid 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.

sandy's guitar is definitely what caused people to misremember the ending of the spongebob movie, i mean that such an iconic episode

I genuinely don't understand how people misremember the guitar, given how important the peanut is in the movie

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?"

Literally everyone just has bad memories. None of that extra stuff happened. Honestly surprised nobody mentioned Squidward bursting into flames. Because that is a legit scene that got cut. Or the car wreck.

bro the krabby patty formula is literally SPONGEBOB, they show us it, they couldn't be listing off ingredients.

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!

I remember in the Valentine’s Day episode, when Patrick goes insane, Patrick said “I despise you heart man!” When he actually said “I defy you heart man!”, it’s a small detail and the most unaired episode so I guess it’s easy to forget such a small detail, but I SWEAR he said despise. I don’t know if it’s just me but I’m pretty sure I’ve heard it before

1:51 yall need to realize when youre being gaslit. We all know that scene existed as we saw it with our own eyes

this video is funny because when he gives an example of mandela effect with the darth vader scene, what he actually describes is another mandela effect, vader never says "luke, i am your father" or "i am your father" in the scene, he says "obi wan killed your father" in reality

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 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

So, I know why the mandela effect for the formula being revealed is a thing. In another episode, Plankton takes over spongebob's brain in order to get him to drop a krabby patty into a machine that can find the ingredients of everything. It ends with Plankton falling into the machine and it's like, 1% evil and 99% hot gas. The Krabby Patty doesn't fall into the machine, however, before Spongebob is about to drop the patty, he apologizes to the patty for letting it down, and proceeds to list off the "ingredients" and even using a real life photo of a krabby patty(like the one in the training video episode). That's where people remember the formula being revealed. Your welcome internet.

All of these are just like... Do any of y'all have any idea how faulty the human memory can be? It's possible for someone to just tell you something and because of a freak accident in memory storage your brain 'remembers' it as something that happened when you were 5 years old. One time I was hatching dragon eggs on a website and I had a memory of getting a specific egg with a unique site ID code, which I 'remembered' 30 minutes later when I ACTUALLY got the egg. Somehow, my brain saw that egg and very insistently told me 'but you already hatched that egg half an hour ago' when that shouldn't have been possible. Maybe it's more comforting to believe it's alternate universes colliding instead of your memory being so easy to influence, but that's just the reality of things that your brain is just a wad of wet electric meat that screws up more often than you'd like to believe. "You're telling me my brain is just making all of this stuff up?" Yes, yes I am.

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.

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.

The Christmas party picture was featured very briefly in a Christmas time commercial on nick. I remember this because I remember being like dude that’s the photos from the episode. It’s real. It’s just in a nick commercial.

Why'd I really waste my lunch break watching this?

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.

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

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!

I've brought this one up several times before, but there's a mandela effect in "just one bite", specifically the scene where squidward says "does this look unsure to you?" I remember a comic bang sound effect playing after squidward said the famous line, but it's just an awkward silence now. I know for a fact there was a sound effect in that scene.

I don't even remember I Was a Teenage Gary existing before hearing people talking about the Squidward transformation scene

I like the theory of the world did end in 2012 but everyone was transported to a different universe. That's why the Mandela effect exists

i remember being mad they didn’t show the photo of him in the santa outfit 😂

It was a peanut guitar. I remember this perfectly

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.

4:33: 7/25/2005 REFERENCE???!?!?

The one that really freaked me out as a kid is rewatching episodes and seeing scenes I have no memory of. Like, reruns of episodes that I’ve seen 20+ times cuz I had seasons 1-2 on dvd as a kid, but then I see scenes I wasn’t aware existed and I’m like “they had to have added that later”

As someone who watched the SpongeBob movie every year since I was a kid, it's always been a peanut

That's just crazy, I vividly remember it being v-shaped and purple, the amount of times I watched the DVD back then contributed to that as well, meanwhile it was a peanut the whole time.

This is exactly what we needed YOU SHOULD MAKE A PART 2!

He's a Goofy Goober, ofc it's a peanut-shaped guitar! How do people even forget that?!1

These episodes are all etched in my mind so perfectly, I can affirm that all of these things have always been the same

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

I wasn't aware there's so many Mandela effects in SpongeBob. I'm not surprised though because I can confirm it's real from personal experience. Cern definitely messed something up at some point, probably in 2008 when they destroyed the original simulation and moved us into the worst possible timeline.
