Sorry guys this is absolutly not new!!!! More than 30+ years of psychology research proved that the brain reconstruct any memories as it needed to. One sample amongs thhousands : https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/acp.1390 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/acp.1390 There are 83,000 more researches on the subject https://scholar.google.fr/scholar?q=memories+creation+photos+psychology+research&hl=fr&as_sdt=0&as_vis=1&oi=scholart https://scholar.google.fr/scholar?q=memories+creation+photos... So prepare to be scare if you think you need it, as there is nothing more volatile than human memmories (including yours ;)

I have been aware of how easily my own memory can be manipulated, even by my own self. I've taken stories told to me years ago and have retold them as I had lived them. Then there was the whole Shaq Kazam movie that people swore existed but never did.

    I think he meant the mass delusion about Sinbad playing a genie in a movie called Shazaam.

Personally, I think it happened because Sinbad regularly wore windbreakers and parachute pants, the name Sinbad sounds stereotypically Arabic, and perhaps because of his darker skin and pan-ethnic features. When I stumbled onto the meme I never once thought I remembered such a movie, but I instantly understood why people would think that way.
